Judul: Social Support, Husband-Wife Interaction, and Marital Quality on Long-Distance Marriage
Abstrak: Pernikahan jarak jauh merupakan fenomena menarik bagi para pemerhati kehidupan keluarga, karena jarak fisik yang berjauhan diduga berpengaruh terhadap keharmonisan keluarga. Ketika salah satu pasangan tidak bisa mendampingi keluarga dalam menghadapi problematika sehari-hari, maka untuk mempertahankan kualitas perkawinan, dibutuhkan dukungan sosial dari lingkungan keluarga dan kerabat dan interaksi suami-istri yang baik antarpasangan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh dukungan sosial dan interaksi suami-istri terhadap kualitas perkawinan pada pernikahan jarak jauh. Responden dalam penelitian ini adalah 146 orang suami dan istri yang bekerja di Lembaga negara X, berasal dari keluarga utuh, sudah memiliki anak, dan sedang menjalani pernikahan jarak jauh selama minimal 6 bulan. Responden dipilih secara purposive dan pengambilan data menggunakan google form. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan dukungan sosial dan interaksi suami-istri yang dirasakan responden tergolong cukup baik. Setengah dari responden laki-laki memiliki kualitas perkawinan yang sangat baik, sementara lebih dari setengah responden perempuan memiliki kualitas perkawinan tergolong cukup baik. Hasil uji beda menunjukkan terdapat perbedaan signifikan pada interaksi suami-istri dan kualitas perkawinan dengan rataan laki-laki lebih tinggi daripada perempuan. Hasil uji korelasi menunjukkan semakin tinggi pendapatan responden, jumlah anak, dan dukungan sosial berhubungan dengan semakin tingginya kualitas perkawinan yang dirasakan. Adapun hasil uji regresi menunjukkan pada responden laki-laki, semakin kecil pendapatan, semakin banyak jumlah anak, semakin besar dukungan sosial yang dirasakan, dan semakin baik interaksi suami-istri akan semakin meningkatkan kualitas perkawinan., Long-distance marriage is an interesting phenomenon for family observers because physical distance could affect the family harmony. When one partner cannot accompany the family in dealing with daily problems, social support from the family and relatives and good husband-wife interaction between partners is needed to maintain the quality of the marriage. This study aims to analyze the effect of social support and husband-wife interaction on marital quality in long-distance marriages. Respondents in this study were 146 husbands and wives who worked at State Institution X, came from intact families, had children, and were currently in a long-distance marriage for at least 6 months. Respondents were selected purposively and data collection used the Google forms. Results showed that social support and husband-wife interaction felt by respondents were moderate. Half of male respondents had high marriage quality, while more than half of female respondents had moderate marriage quality. Comparative tests showed significant differences in interaction between husband and wife and the quality of marriage, with the average of male higher than female. Correlation test showed that higher income, number of children, and social support is associated with higher perceived marital quality. Regression test showed that for male respondents, lower income, more children, greater perceived social support, and better interaction between husband and wife will further improve marital quality.

Judul: The Influence of Marital Quality and Coping Strategy on Parenting Environment Quality in Long Distance Marriage Families
Abstrak: Long distance marriage menghadirkan tantangan dan perubahan bagi kehidupan keluarga baik dari segi kualitas perkawinan maupun kualitas pengasuhan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh kualitas perkawinan dan coping strategy terhadap kualitas pengasuhan pada keluarga long distance marriage. Pendekatan dalam penelitian ini adalah kuantitatif dengan desain cross-sectional study. Penelitian ini melibatkan keluarga yang menjalani long distance marriage dengan kriteria minimal lama berpisah 1 bulan, mempunyai anak usia prasekolah (3-6 tahun), dan berdomisili di Kabupaten atau Kota Bogor. Responden dalam penelitian ini adalah ibu. Penarikan contoh dalam penelitian ini menggunakan non-probabilitiy sampling dengan teknik snowball sampling. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan kualitas perkawinan dan kualitas lingkungan pengasuhan tergolong sedang, sedangkan coping strategy tergolong rendah. Hasil uji korelasi menunjukkan lama berpisah berhubungan negatif signifikan dan problem-focused coping berhubungan positif signifikan dengan kualitas lingkungan pengasuhan. Usia ibu berhubungan negatif signifikan dengan kebahagiaan perkawinan. Kepuasan dan kebahagiaan perkawinan berhubungan positif signifikan dengan kualitas perkawinan. Problem-focused coping dan emotion-focused coping berhubungan positif signifikan dengan coping strategy. Hasil uji regresi menunjukkan lama berpisah berpengaruh negatif signifikan, sedangkan problem-focused coping dan jenis kelamin anak berpengaruh positif signifikan terhadap kualitas lingkungan pengasuhan. Tidak ditemukan adanya hubungan maupun pengaruh kualitas perkawinan terhadap kualitas lingkungan pengasuhan dalam penelitian ini., Long distance marriage evokes challenges and changes to family life in marital quality and parenting environment quality. This study analyzes the influence of marital quality and coping strategy on parenting environment quality in long distance marriage families. Research approach used is quantitative, with a cross-sectional study design. The study involved families who have been in long distance marriages for a minimum separation duration of 1 month, have preschool-aged children (3-6 years old), and live in Bogor Regency or City. Respondents were mothers. Sampling technique used is non-probability sampling with snowball sampling. The results indicate that marital quality and parenting environment quality are at moderate level, while coping strategy is at low level. The correlation test shows that separation duration and problem-focused coping has a significant relationship with parenting environment quality. Maternal age has a significant relationship with marital happiness. Marital satisfaction and happiness have a significant relationship with marital quality. Problem-focused coping and emotion-focused coping have a significant relationship with coping strategy. The regression test shows that separation duration, problem-focused coping and child’s gender have a significant effect on parenting environment quality. This study did not find any relationship or influence of marital quality on parenting environment quality.

Judul: Elektrodeposisi Film Tipis Semikonduktor Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) pada Substrat Kaca ITO
Abstrak: Semiconductor Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) thin film that can be used as absorber layers on solar cell module was made via electrodeposition method. CZTS thin film was electrodeposited on the surface of a silicate glass coated with a thin layer of indium tin oxide (ITO). Deposition process was done using potentiostatic mode at room temperature with a potential of 1.05 V for 30, 45, and 60 minutes, followed with annealing the film at 2 different temperatures, 500 ºC using furnace and 180 ºC using hot plate, both treatments for 45 minutes in N2/H2S atmosphere. The X-ray difractograms were analyzed using Match 2 program and showed that the CZTS thin films had kesterit crystalline structure, with a low percentage of CZTS phase. The thin film also contained secondary phases such as Cu2S, ZnS, and SnS. The obtained CZTS thin films had a thickness between 1.039 and 1.676 μm. Absorption study showed that the band gap energy of CZTS thin films which was annealed using furnace ranged from 1.50 to 1.52 eV, whereas that annealed using the hot plate was not observed. The band gap energy value showed that CZTS thin films can be used as sunlight absorber layers on solar cell. The formation of CZTS crystal film on this investigation was effectively performed using furnace annealing process at a temperature of 500 ºC with deposition time of 45 minutes.
