Eugenia Hernandez- Moreno, Ed.D.1, Velma Menchaca, Ph.D.2 and Alejandro Garcia, Ed.D.3
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2025.5501
ABSTRACT: This qualitative study examined family engagement in children's education among parents residing in
colonias (low-income border communities) in South Texas. Through interviews with 15 parents from two school
districts, the study explored factors that promote or hinder parental engagement. Key factors promoting
engagement included the theme of parents' access to resources, school and home communication, parents'
perspective of education, and family background. Major hindering factors included economic constraints, lack of
transportation, language barriers, and cultural differences. The findings highlight the need for culturally responsive
family engagement strategies tailored to the unique circumstances of colonia residents.

Xiaobao Yu 1, Jialong Jin 2
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2025.5503
ABSTRACT: At present, the problem of benefit distribution of multi-energy joint delivery alliance which is affected
by the "dual carbon" target needs to be solved urgently. On the basis of the traditional Shapley value method,
considering the contribution fairness, four indexes of resource input, risk allocation, carbon policy influence, and
contribution degree are introduced, and the improved Shapley model based on the cloud gravity method is
constructed. The example analysis shows that compared with the traditional Shapley value allocation strategy, the
improved Shapley model based on the cloud gravity method better matches the benefits of the subject and the
comprehensive contribution.

The Importance of Minimizing Cyberloafing Behavior in Village Apparatus Employees
Riza Bahtiar Sulistyan 1, Budiyanto 2, Suhermin 3
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2025.5506
ABSTRACT: This study aims to analyze cyberloafing behavior among employees in Lumajang Regency, as well as the
factors that affect it. In addition, this study also evaluates the impact of cyberloafing on work productivity and the
effectiveness of organizational policies in overcoming this phenomenon. This study uses a qualitative approach
with data collection methods in the form of in-depth interviews, direct observations, and documentation studies
related to internet use policies in the work environment. Data analysis was carried out thematically to identify
patterns of cyberloafing behavior and its supporting factors. Data triangulation is applied to ensure the validity of
research findings. The results of the study show that cyberloafing in Lumajang Regency occurs in various forms,
especially the use of social media, watching videos, and other online activities during working hours. The main
factors that drive this behavior are unrestricted internet access, lack of supervision, and employee perception that
cyberloafing does not have a significant impact on work. These findings are consistent with previous research
suggesting that cyberloafing can reduce productivity if left uncontrolled, but also serves as a stress reduction
mechanism. Therefore, a more balanced policy is needed between supervision and freedom of employees in using
the internet. Strategies such as access time restrictions, time management training, and strengthening internal
regulations can help control cyberloafing without sacrificing work comfort.

EMPLOYEE JOB SATISFACTION: THE CASE OF TURKISH SMES
Evren AYRANCI
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2025.5507
ABSTRACT: This study scrutinizes job satisfaction factors of employees working at small and medium-sized
enterprizes (SMEs) in Beylikduzu Organized Industrial Zone (OIZ) in Istanbul, Turkey. It is debated that reliance
on a single construct may fail to get a peripheral picture of the job satisfaction, and therefore a multi-construct
approach was facilitated by involving multiple related instruments. This peripheral picture is also reinforced by
emphasizing all such enterprizes in any sector to overarch the reliance on sector-specific job satisfaction data. The
initial findings point out that there are four factors that totally constitute job satisfaction; job characteristics,
contentment, support and treatment, and materiality. Further evidence reveals that technical and financial aspects
of job satisfaction go on before psycho-social aspects.

MULTI-PURPOSE COOPERATIVE MEMBERS IN UGANDA.
Mark D. Walugembe 1, Olutayo K. Osunsan 2, Dunstan Kisuule 3, Norah Kiwabudde 4
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2025.5515
ABSTRACT: This study explores age-related effects on Financial Literacy (FL), Personal Financial Management
(PFM), and Utilization of Financial Products (FPU) among members of Y-Save Multi-Purpose Cooperative in
Uganda. Different age groups categorised as young adults (18-30 years), middled adults (31-50 years) and older
adults (Above 50 years) exhibit different FL levels and financial behaviours towards PFM. The study utilised a
mixed-methods approach, combining a quantitative online survey of 322 members analysed using descriptive and
inferential statistics with a qualitative document review of relevant Y-Save Multi-Purpose Cooperative reports that
were selected purposively. The study was guided by the following hypotheses: (i)There is no significant difference
in FL among different age groups of members of Y-Save; (ii)There is no significant difference in PFM among
different age groups of members of Y Save; and (iii) There is no significant difference in FPU among different age
groups of members of Y Save. The findings showed that there was a statistically significant difference in Financial
Literacy and PFM among different age groups while there was no significant difference with FPU. The document
review indicated that Y-Save had been carrying out FL and PFM programs, however, there was need to measure
the extent of involvement of the different age groups. The findings indicated low FL and PFM among the young
adults as compared to their counterparts. All age groups were utilizing the available financial products with the
loan product having been consistently utilised over the years. The recommendations include; providing FL
programs for young adults below 25 years and 25-35years on savings, budgeting, investing, managing debt and risk
diversification. These constituted about 70% of the population, and the revitalization of the share capital product.

Retirement Readiness: A Dual Perspective on Financial Planning for Private and Public Institution
Randy B. Baguio & Romel C. Nemino
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2025.5522
ABSTRACT: The study undertook a comprehensive and dual perspective study on retirement readiness, which was
an existing study undertaken to study the level of preparedness, variations that are significant, and the predictors
for retirement preparedness amongst personnel in public and private HEIs. A quantitative research method
specifically descriptive correlational design is utilized in the conduct of this study. In addition, Multiple Linear
Regression was employed to calculate the impact of financial planning and preparations, as well as financial
knowledge and behavior, on retirement readiness among HEI public and private employees co-occur with the
utilization of mean to assess the significance of financial knowledge and behavior, financial planning and
preparations, and retirement preparedness among HEI's private and public employees. Based on the outcome
generated in this study, the private group reported a moderate level of preparedness, with the mean score 3.31,
while the public group viewed themselves at a higher scale, with a mean score of 3.44. The composite grand mean
value of 3.38 indicates, therefore, a moderate level of retirement preparedness across the board. Furthermore, the
findings depict that employees still face significant shortcomings in financial management even though they make
a concerted effort to save for retirement by investing compensation proceeds, developing a positive outlook on
retirement, and reducing potential financial hardships. The study indicated moderate progress in financial planning
and preparations, with slightly more preparedness by the public sector than that by their private sector
counterpart.

Legal Protection Regulation for Healthcare Professionals in Private Hospitals in Indonesia from the Perspective of Justice Values
Muhammad Purnomo 1, Gunarto 2, Sri Endah Wahyuningsih 3 and Anis Mashdurohatun 4
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2025.5523
ABSTRACT: Private and public hospitals have the responsibility to maintain the quality of healthcare services, which
is one of the key factors in fulfilling the public's right to health. Since hospitals provide services, they must ensure
patient satisfaction. Therefore, actions that prioritize public interest are necessary to deliver genuinely good
services to the community. Legal protection for healthcare professionals in hospitals is crucial. This research aims
to analyze and identify the regulations concerning legal protection for healthcare professionals in private hospitals
in Indonesia that are still lacking in fairness, based on the values of Pancasila justice. The research method adopts
a positivist paradigm, using doctrinal legal research with a normative juridical approach. The primary data source is
secondary data obtained through a literature review of various regulations related to the healthcare profession. The
data is analyzed qualitatively using deductive logic. The research findings indicate that the legal protection
regulations for healthcare professionals in private hospitals in Indonesia still face issues of injustice and
inadequacy. Although Law No. 17 of 2023 has acknowledged the critical role of healthcare professionals and
granted them certain rights, its implementation remains hindered, particularly in terms of legal responsibilities and
protection against professional risks. Healthcare professionals play an essential role in healthcare services, yet
existing regulations do not fully protect them from legal risks arising from medical actions. Therefore, additional
balanced regulations are needed to better protect healthcare services as a profession. Weaknesses include a lack of
coordination between the government, hospitals, and professional associations, as well as limitations in
monitoring legal protection in private hospitals. This encompasses attitudes, awareness, and compliance among
the public, especially healthcare professionals and hospital management, toward regulations.

ABSTRACT: Motivation plays a crucial role in the lives of teachers and has significant implications for both
educators and their students. Lack of motivation among teachers has been an issue affecting many secondary
schools’ teachers including those in Kajiado County, Kenya. The objective of this research was to determine the
effect of workload on the motivation of teachers in Kajiado County, Kenya. The study was anchored on Maslow’s
theory of Motivation. Data was collected using structured questionnaires. Data was analyzed using Statistical
Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25.0 and descriptive statistics and inferential statistics were used in
analysis. Descriptive statistics showed that respondents agreed that workload affected the motivation of teachers
in Kajiado County, Kenya. Regression analysis showed that workload affected motivation positively and
significantly (β = 0.125, Sig. = 0.047). The study concludes that a manageable workload ensures teachers can
dedicate ample time to lesson planning, grading, and providing individualized support to students and
recommends allowing teachers to take emergency leave days as it is essential for addressing the human and
personal aspects of their lives, promoting well-being, and maintaining a positive and supportive school
environment.
