VICTIM TURNED PERPETRATOR: TRANSFORMING VICTIMIZATION EXPERIENCES INTO CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR
Authors: Tulung Kurnia Mega , Meliala Adrianus Eliasta
Published: January 2025

The phenomenon of victims transforming into perpetrators (Victim-Offender Overlap) in Indonesia is a phenomenon that is still developing. This study employs a qualitative approach to explore the process of transformation from victimization experiences to criminal behaviors, focusing on those with a history of victimization. Data collection involved purposive sampling and semi-structured interviews to gain in-depth insights into the victims' experiences and transformation processes of the informants. The findings of this study have proven to support and even complement the results of previous studies related to the transformation caused by the post-victimization experience, namely, Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE's), Other Forms of Victimization Experiences, and Other Adverse Experiences. These findings suggest that the transformation process is not only triggered by experiences in childhood, but also by experiences of victimizing in adulthood, so it is important to further explore the relationship between victimization and criminal behavior in a broader context.

Published: January 2025

Treating psychiatric disorders in pregnancy is a balancing act between maternal mental health and fetal well-being. Antipsychotics are key in managing conditions like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder but pose a problem because of the risk to the developing fetus. We present the case of a 38-year-old G5P3 woman with chronic paranoid schizophrenia, preeclampsia with severe features, chronic hypertension, UTI, GBS infection, genital herpes, and maternal drug dependence. In this case, we follow the effects of Latuda on the patient’s mental and physical health and the implications of the medication on delivery and the baby.
Empowering Marginalized Communities through Social Entrepreneurship: A Pathway to Inclusive Economic Development
Authors: Nurfaisah  , Hardianti Pertiwi
Published: January 2025

Social entrepreneurship has emerged as a transformative approach to addressing economic and social inequalities by empowering marginalized communities through innovative and sustainable business models. Unlike traditional business enterprises that prioritize profit maximization, social entrepreneurship integrates economic objectives with social impact, fostering inclusive development and long-term community resilience. This study explores the role of social entrepreneurship in promoting economic inclusion, particularly for marginalized groups such as low-income communities, women entrepreneurs, people with disabilities, and indigenous populations. Utilizing a qualitative research approach, this study examines case studies of social enterprises that have successfully uplifted marginalized communities through capacity-building, financial inclusion, and employment generation. Findings reveal that social entrepreneurs implement diverse strategies, including skills training programs, microfinance initiatives, and market access facilitation, to enable self-sufficiency and sustainable livelihoods. However, challenges such as limited funding, regulatory barriers, and scalability constraints hinder the growth of social enterprises. The study highlights the critical role of government policies, private sector collaborations, and social innovation ecosystems in overcoming these challenges and ensuring the sustainability of impact-driven enterprises. This research contributes to the broader discourse on inclusive economic development by emphasizing the need for a multi-stakeholder approach to fostering social entrepreneurship. It argues that empowering marginalized communities through entrepreneurial initiatives requires a combination of policy support, social investment, and digital transformation. The study provides policy recommendations for strengthening social enterprise ecosystems and enhancing their capacity to drive long-term socio-economic change.
A Discussion On The Movie “Please Teach Me English” in Relation To The Use of “Konglish” and the Concept Of “English Fever”
Authors: Alpay Jeong Beste
Published: January 2025

The study analyzes the Korean movie Please Teach Me English as a cultural artifact reflecting the sociolinguistic phenomena of “English Fever” and “Konglish” in South Korea. The film illustrates the societal obsession with English as a form of cultural and social capital, driven by globalization and economic aspirations. It also highlights the symbolic value of English, which often outweighs its practical utility in professional settings. In addition, drawing on Kosofsky’s (1990) analysis of Korean English the paper explores the cultural and linguistic dimensions of Konglish errors depicted in the film demonstrating the interplay between language, cognition, and cultural values. This discussion underlines the unique adaptations and challenges Korean people face in navigating between their native linguistic framework and English.
Analysis of Occupational Safety and Health Management System (SMK3) on Workers In Cikeruh Majalengka Bridge Construction Project
Authors: Sutanto Pachri , Pitaloka Renata , Fatmala Lia , Rozy Nikko
Published: January 2025

The implementation of safety and health (OSH) systems in the work environment is a crucial component for the running of a business entity, because the consequences of accidents can have a detrimental impact on the workforce and the institution. This study was conducted to evaluate how OHS affects the level of worker productivity. A quantitative approach is the method used by collecting primary data through distributing questionnaires to 35 workers at the Cikeruh Majalengka Bridge Construction Project. Data analysis was carried out using IBM SPSS 26.0 for Windows, by conducting an Instrument Test consisting of Validity Test and Reliability Test. The variables studied consisted of four independent variables: Planning (X1), Organization (X2), Actuating (X3), Controlling (X4) and one dependent variable, namely Worker Productivity (Y). The results showed that Planning has a positive effect on productivity with an average value of 1.98, Organization 2.0, Actuating 1.78, and Controlling 1.94. The four independent variables as a whole have an average value of 1.92 which indicates a positive influence on worker productivity on the project, because it is in the interval class 1.6 ≥ x ≤ 2.0. This proves that factors such as planning, organization, implementation, and supervision play a significant role in increasing worker productivity on the Majalengka Cikeruh Bridge Construction Project.

Published: January 2025

This research used the revised version of Bloom's Tax theory analysis to examine the Islamic Religious Education (PAI) question quality for grade XII at SMA Negeri 1 Ciomas. Data for this study comes from a variety of sources, including interviews with PAI instructors, recordings of final exam questions, and literature reviews and library research. The research methodology is qualitative descriptive, and the question bank is based on Islamic religious education. Remembering, comprehending, applying, analyzing, evaluating, and producing are the cognitive categories that are the center of attention in the updated Bloom's Taxonomy. The study's findings show that low-level cognitive abilities, such as remembering and comprehending, account for the vast majority of PAI questions, whereas higher-level cognitive abilities, such as analyzing and inventing, are shown by a far lower fraction. This shows the need for better question preparation in order to enhance students' HTS. The hope is that these results will help improve PAI curricula and pedagogical approaches.

Authors: González-García Carla , Martín Eduardo , Santos Iriana , Bravo Amaia
Published: January 2025

Los jóvenes migrantes no acompañados (JMNA) constituyen un grupo cuyo proceso migratorio les convierte en especialmente vulnerables. Este estudio tiene como objetivo evaluar la prevalencia de problemas de salud mental y la cobertura de tratamiento proporcionada a esta población. Para ello, una muestra de 93 JMNA y 137 jóvenes en acogimiento residencial que constituyen el grupo de comparación, completaron el Youth Self Report (YSR) y el Personal Wellbeing Index (PWI). El personal educativo, por su parte, informó sobre la cobertura de tratamiento ofrecida. Los resultados señalaron que un elevado porcentaje de JMNA se encontraba en el rango clínico, especialmente en problemas internalizantes. Además, la satisfacción de los JMNA con los grupos de personas a los que pertenecen fue significativamente menor que la manifestada por los jóvenes en el grupo de comparación. En relación con la cobertura de tratamiento, se encontró que la atención que se les ofrece es escasa. En consecuencia, la salud mental de estos jóvenes debe incluirse en la agenda de los servicios que se les proporcionan.
Rethinking Research Metrics: The Performance Impact Score (PIS) as a Novel Alternative to the H-index
Authors:   University of Sarajevo, Pedagoški fakultet, Memisevic Haris
Published: January 2025

Providing an objective ranking of scientists based on their merit is a rather challenging task. Numerous factors complicate this endeavor, raising difficult questions about how such evaluations should be conducted. The goal of the present paper is to introduce a new measure for evaluating researchers’ performance, the Performance Impact Score (PIS), which combines both productivity and research impact. In this study, I compared the PIS with h-index scores for 108 researchers at the University of Sarajevo. More specifically, I examined the overlap between the top 20 researchers according to the PIS and the top 20 researchers according to Web of Science, Google Scholar, and SCOPUS h-indexes. The concordance rate was 65% for Google Scholar and Web of Science, and 55% for SCOPUS. The analysis highlights the importance of considering both productivity and impact when evaluating researchers’ rankings. It is also evident that the top 20 researchers vary across different metrics. The results further demonstrate that creating a fair and just ranking system requires going beyond the data available in bibliometric databases, particularly in cases where researchers rank highly by one metric but perform poorly when evaluated by another.

El concepto de género es motivo de muchas controversias, y no solo en América Latina. Los grupos conservadores suelen hablar de una ideología de género para relievar sus connotaciones políticas y lo que consideran su carácter potencialmente disruptivo para el orden social establecido. Qué duda cabe que en la región las feministas no la tienen fácil: son agredidas (no solo verbalmente), descalificadas, ridiculizadas y, en el mejor de los casos, ignoradas. No parece exagerado afirmar que solo en los países islámicos enfrentan condiciones más adversas.

Registration and documentation in the Archaeology Service
Authors: Alzahrani Abdulnasser
Published: January 2025

Cultural artifacts and archaeological sites receive great attention from individuals, institutions and countries alike, due to their effective role in preserving the cultural, social and historical identity of nations and peoples. Therefore, we find that preservation and restoration methods and their consequences take top priority from those in charge of heritage and archaeological sites. Perhaps one of the most important topics related to this is the archaeological registration and documentation processes for artifacts and archaeological sites, which contain many sciences and knowledge that help in these processes. The archaeological registration and documentation processes have many benefits for heritage artifacts and archaeological sites, as they undoubtedly help first in the dating processes of these artifacts and archaeological sites, and they also help in identifying the changes associated with the impact of time or encroachment that occurred on these heritage artifacts. Perhaps the most prominent use of registration and documentation processes comes within the provisions of the preservation and restoration plan, as they help in identifying the chemical composition and different characteristics of these artifacts, which helps in developing the appropriate preservation and restoration plan, and also choosing the appropriate materials for restoration processes. The registration and documentation processes in this case accompany the restoration steps from the beginning to the end, which helps the researchers to highlight the aesthetic and cultural values of these holdings and present them to those interested and the next generations, and to facilitate their handling and preservation in the future. In this paper, everything related to the registration and documentation process will be discussed, its importance and its role in serving antiquities in general, to clarify how to optimally use registration and documentation in the field of antiquities.

Published: January 2025

An enterprise stores information in the cloud providing virtual storage of data as virtual memory. Cloud increases the enterprise’s ability to offer data and service delivery, however it also increases the chances of a cybersecurity threat, and cyber risks, and increases the vulnerability of the enterprise to risks. It is important for the organization to perform risk management to determine cybersecurity risks. Cybersecurity is a key need for hospitals to manage threats of all types. Healthcare is notoriously vulnerable to cyber-attacks due to the valuable nature of patient information and the lack of updated medical equipment. In this paper, we discuss medical applications in cybersecurity, AI's role in cybersecurity, and risk management in medical cybersecurity.
La vigencia de una noción holística y armónica de la evangelización
Authors: Aguilar Grande Carlos
Published: January 2025

Frente a una perspectiva muy polarizada, antes, durante y tras el Concilio, que se empeñaba en enfrentar lo mundano y lo sagrado, evangelización y humanización, acción y contemplación, catequesis y liturgia, creación y redención, moral autónoma y heterónoma, encarnación en el mundo y fuga de él, el papa san Pablo VI quiso mostrar una visión orgánica –y por tanto holística y armónica– del quehacer y la misión de la Iglesia en el mundo. En este artículo tratamos de ofrecer algunas de las claves que hemos encontrado en el magisterio de Pablo VI para proponer esta visión de la evangelización, y que, posteriormente, han servido de inspiración al magisterio de los sucesivos papas.

Published: January 2025

Basketry, as an artistic discourse, is one of the enviable indigenous heritage arts that evolves with society and is still of great relevance in contemporary African civilisation. Although the primary historical reason for the perpetuation of basketry art in many ancient African societies was largely utilitarian, the scope of basketry has since metamorphosed beyond its functional focus to include aesthetic, economic, and many opportunities that are geared toward meeting the sociocultural and economic needs of African societies. The focus of this qualitative case study was to investigate the opportunities and sustainability of indigenous basketry furniture artistic practices in the geographical context of the Upper West Region of Ghana. Thematic analysis of triangulated data generated from twenty-seven (27) conveniently sampled experts reveals the use of local technology and ingenuity in the indigenous basketry furniture artistic practices in the Sissala West District, Sisaala East and Jirapa Municipalities in the Upper West Region. The study also found that the indigenous basketry furniture products (lounge chairs, beds, dining tables, local market tables among others) the ready market thereby providing lucrative economic gains to the artisans. The study concludes that the indigenous basketry furniture art in the Sissala West District, Sisaala East and Jirapa Municipalities in the Upper West Region of Ghana is an economically viable vocation that provides decent livelihood to its practitioners. The artisans are, therefore encouraged to seek governmental and non-governmental funding to expand the frontiers of the vocation within global sustainability dictates for massive employment and industrial production.

Published: January 2025

This paper investigates the role of sustainability as a governing norm of sustainable development in the context of contemporary environmental law. The concept of sustainability has been widely discussed in the literature as an overarching goal of development, with a focus on economic, social, and environmental dimensions. This paper examines the concept of sustainability as it is encoded in environmental law, especially in the context of principles of international law related to sustainable development. It assesses how sustainability is used in contemporary environmental law, and whether it serves as an effective tool for protecting the environment and promoting sustainable development. The paper identifies a range of different uses of sustainability as a governing norm and discusses their relative strengths and weaknesses, as well as their potential for shaping environmental policies. The findings suggest that sustainability as a governing norm of sustainable development has been fairly successful in providing a clear and consistent vision of sustainable development, although its actual implementation has been inconsistent.
Quel lien entre leadership et ergothérapie ? Retour d’expérience
Authors: Verhille Audrey , Gardeux Fanny , Gavier Cédric
Published: January 2025

Les ergothérapeutes dans les établissements médico-sociaux jouent souvent des rôles de coordination, tels que la gestion de projets ou la référence qualité. Pourquoi cette profession est-elle sollicitée pour ces missions ? Les compétences spécifiques des ergothérapeutes favorisent-elles ces missions de coordination ? Ou bien est-ce une reconnaissance de leurs qualités personnelles ? Ces questions intéressent les référents pédagogiques des Instituts de formation en ergothérapie (IFE) qui cherchent à préparer les ergothérapeutes à la gestion de projets et à la collaboration interprofessionnelle, tout en conservant la technicité de leur profession.
Dans un contexte de transformation de l’offre de santé, notamment avec une approche populationnelle et la désinstitutionalisation, la formation initiale des ergothérapeutes et leur pratique, centrée sur les interactions entre la personne, son environnement et ses occupations, les positionnent idéalement pour endosser des missions de coordination.
Le parcours d’Audrey Verhille, diplômée en ergothérapie, illustre bien cette dynamique. Elle a évolué d’une pratique clinique à des rôles de coordination de réseaux et de qualité. Son expérience montre comment les compétences en gestion de projet, relationnelles et de leadership, développées au fil de sa carrière, peuvent être cruciales pour ces missions.
Les compétences en leadership des ergothérapeutes peuvent se développer grâce aux opportunités professionnelles et à la confiance de leurs employeurs. Il est essentiel que, dès la formation initiale, ces compétences soient recherchées et encouragées, mais aussi que les étudiants prennent rapidement conscience de l’importance de la communication et de la nécessaire et enrichissante collaboration avec d’autres acteurs. Cela renforcerait l’identité professionnelle des ergothérapeutes et leur capacité à influencer positivement les dynamiques de changement dans le secteur médico-social.
Vers une ergothérapie de territoire : investir l’exercice coordonné comme espace d’expérimentation, et selon un leadership démocratique
Authors: David Soazig , Clavreul Hélène
Published: January 2025

L’ergothérapie s’est progressivement développée en dehors des institutions de soins hospitalières, notamment par l’exercice libéral. En parallèle, les modèles de pratique en ergothérapie évoluent vers une vision biopsychosociale de la santé. Les ergothérapeutes s’affranchissent progressivement d’une vision biomédicale de la santé et de leur métier. Comment, sur les territoires, les ergothérapeutes peuvent-ils évoluer concrètement dans leurs modes d’intervention, non seulement dans le milieu de vie des personnes accompagnées, mais aussi en s’associant à d’autres professionnels, c’est-à-dire dans le cadre de l’exercice coordonné ? Comment cela peut-il s’inscrire dans le contexte de montée des inégalités sociales et de la transition écologique, qui demande à développer des modalités coopératives ? À travers des exemples concrets issus du partage d’expérience des autrices, nous verrons que l’approche systémique développée en ergothérapie permet aux ergothérapeutes d’influencer les pratiques en santé, à partir des besoins des habitants et habitantes. Ce mécanisme d’influence illustre des formes de leadership que les ergothérapeutes peuvent aujourd’hui incarner légitimement, en s’appuyant sur des compétences et des outils déjà présents et en s’inscrivant dans des réseaux pluriprofessionnels. Parmi les formes de leadership, les styles démocratique et collégial semblent les plus cohérents avec les principes d’intervention de l’ergothérapeute, les valeurs de justice et vis-à-vis du contexte socio-économique et climatique.

Analyse du leadership : un incontournable en ergothérapie
Authors: Tétreault Sylvie
Published: January 2025

Plusieurs auteurs (Fleming-Castaldy & Patro, 2012 ; Heard et al., 2018 ; Pitts, 2020) ont exploré le leadership en ergothérapie. Or, Braveman (2016) souligne la difficulté pour les ergothérapeutes d’adopter une position de leader, particulièrement pour les nouveaux diplômés. Selon Pitts (2020), le leadership doit être considéré comme essentiel au développement de la profession, car il améliore la qualité des soins et fait ressortir leurs compétences particulières qui y sont associées. De plus, il mentionne que les leaders doivent acquérir des habiletés pour établir des collaborations efficaces, mettre en place des changements significatifs dans l’offre des soins et influencer positivement les membres de l’équipe. Pour mieux saisir les différentes facettes du leadership, le texte abordera quelques définitions du leadership, présentera une typologie et proposera des exemples en ergothérapie.

Prefabrike yapılar fabrikada üretilen yapı elemanlarının şantiyede birleştirilmesi ile oluşmaktadır ve bağlantılar, yapısal sistemin önemli bir parçasını oluşturmaktadır. Bağlantı bölgesi, sadece elemanların birleştiği alanla sınırlı değildir, kuvvet aktarımı ve gerilme dağılımlarının gerçekleştiği her iki elemana bitişik bölgelerin tasarımı ve detaylandırmasından etkilenmektedir. Prefabrike taşıyıcı sistemlerde kolon-kiriş bağlantı bölgesinde kolon yüzeylerinde mevcut kısa konsollar ile kiriş birleşimlerinin yapılabilmesi için eleman uç kesitleri küçültülmekte ve kiriş uçları inceltildikçe bu bölgede kesme kuvveti artmaktadır. Bu sebeple prefabrike bir çerçeve sistemde kolon-kiriş bağlantı bölgesinde oluşan kuvvetlerin ve gerilmelerin izlediği yola göre elemanların birleşime bitişik bölgeleri tasarlanmalıdır. Sunulan çalışmada yayılı yük etkisindeki inceltilmiş uçlu prefabrike kirişin yürürlükteki yönetmelikler ve yeni yaklaşımlara göre tasarım adımları karşılaştırılmıştır. Bu kapsamda örnek olarak seçilen inceltilmiş uçlu prefabrike kiriş bağlantı bölgesi Beton Prefabrikasyon El Kitabı, Amerikan Prefabrike Beton Enstitüsü’nün (PCI Tasarım El Kitabı) tasarım el kitabı ve çubuk analojisi yöntemi esas alınarak tasarlanmıştır. Analiz sonuçları karşılaştırıldığında, çubuk analojisi yöntemine göre belirlenen toplam donatı alanının diğer yaklaşımlara göre daha fazla olduğu görülmüştür. Bununla birlikte PCI Tasarım El Kitabı kriterlerine göre belirlenen toplam donatı alanının, Beton Prefabrikasyon El Kitabı'na göre belirlenen toplam donatı alanından daha fazla olduğu ve bu nedenle güvenli tarafta kaldığı tespit edilmiştir.

Bu çalışmada, haloysit (HL) nanotüpleri, gözenekli kompozitlerin hazırlanmasında yüksek iç faz emülsiyonlarının (HIPE'ler) stabilizasyonuna katkıda bulunan katı partiküller olarak kullanılmıştır. Bu HIPE'lerin sürekli fazının polimerizasyonu ile poliHIPE'ler elde edilmiştir. HL yüzeyine setiltrimetilamonyum bromür (CTAB) immobilizasyonu, çözeltide adsorpsiyon (SOL) tekniği kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Nanodolgu ihtiva etmeyen HIPE’nin kararlılığı hacimce %5 surfaktan kullanımı ile sağlanabilmiştir. Bununla birlikte, organofilik HL dolgulu (ağırlıkça %0,25-%1,00) HIPE malzemelerinin emülsiyon kararlılıkları için surfaktan gereksinimi %1’e düşmüştür. Sabit CTAB-SOL-HL kil miktarlarında, surfaktan konsantrasyonunun azaltılması farklı boyutlarda gözeneklerin oluşmasına neden olurken, surfaktan konsantrasyonu sabit tutulduğunda ise dolgu maddesi miktarının artırılması gözenek boyutunda bir azalmaya ve boyut dağılımının iyileşmesine neden olmuştur. En yüksek katyonik boya (Nile Blue) adsorpsiyon değerleri %0,50 ve %1,00 CTAB-SOL-HL içeren polyHIPE kompozitleri tarafından sergilenmiş ve %1 dolgu kullanımı ile saf poliHIPE'ye kıyasla yaklaşık %100 daha fazla adsorpsiyon elde edilmiştir. Ağırlıkça %0.50 ve üzerinde CTAB-SOL-HL kullanımı ile saf polyHIPE’ye nazaran, kompozitlerde daha yüksek ısıl bozunma sıcaklıklarına ulaşılmıştır. Gözenekli kompozitlerin hazırlanmasında HL nanotüplerin kullanımı, emülsiyon stabilitesinin sağlanmasına yardımcı olmasının yanı sıra hem malzemelerin termal performansının iyileştirilmesi hem de boyanın adsorpsiyonunda aktif rol alması açısından olası mühendislik ve çevresel faydalar açısından büyük önem taşımaktadır.
Removal of non-cellulosic materials from hemp fiber under ultrasonication conditions and cetyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (CTAC) catalyst
Authors: Seçinti Klopf Hatice
Published: January 2025

Recently, due to rising worries about global warming, pollution, and the sustainability of fossil resources, there has been a heightened interest in renewable and sustainable natural materials across different industries. Consequently, the use of renewable and sustainable natural fibers such as hemp instead of synthetic ones, such as glass and carbon has become more popular in certain composite material applications. A drawback of natural fibers including hemp is that their polar nature often leads to incompatibility at the fiber/matrix interface with nonpolar and hydrophobic matrices. This leads to weak adhesion between the fiber and matrix, resulting in reduced mechanical properties of the final composites. To enhance the performance of natural fiber composites, it is essential to modify the fibers. Non-cellulosic substances such as lignin, waxes, hemicelluloses and pectin present in the hemp fiber structure also affect the mechanical performance of composites due to poor fiber/matrix adhesion. In this study quaternary ammonium hydroxide was used in an ultrasonic-assisted pretreatment to increase the degradation rate of non-cellulosic substances in hemp fiber. Cetyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (CTAC) concentrations ranging between 1 and 8% w/w were used with a constant (10% w/w) NaOH concentration. Hemp fiber surfaces were analyzed using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The findings revealed that ultrasonication-assisted alkali treatment effectively removed non-cellulosic substances from the fiber surface. This removal was further validated by TGA and FT-IR analysis.
Comparative assessment of element types for evaluating local elastic buckling behavior of rectangular hollow sections using finite element analysis

Published: January 2025

This study systematically evaluates the performance of conventional shell elements in Abaqus for predicting the local elastic buckling behavior of rectangular hollow sections (RHSs) under various loading conditions, including axial compression, major axis bending, and minor axis bending. Theoretical local buckling coefficients were first derived based on the cross-sectional dimensions of RHSs and used to calculate the critical local buckling stress for each loading scenario. Finite element analyses (FEA) were then performed using different shell element types, including four-node and eight-node elements, to assess their accuracy and computational efficiency. The results indicate that four-node shell elements (S4, S4R) offer a favorable balance of accuracy and significantly reduced computational time, making them the most efficient option. In contrast, eight-node elements (S8R, S8R5) provide marginally higher accuracy but require substantially longer computation times and have limited applicability. This study underscores the importance of selecting appropriate elements to achieve a balance between accuracy and efficiency, providing valuable guidance for engineers in structural design. By optimizing element selection for modeling local elastic buckling in RHSs, the research improves computational efficiency and supports the development of more reliable, cost-effective designs.

Early childhood education aims to develop motor, affective and life skills, not just creativity. Early age is a golden period that requires appropriate stimulation to optimize growth and development. One challenge is the development of fine motor skills, such as the ability to grasp at the age of 3-4 years (Antara, 2019). Loose parts media helps hone creativity and motor skills, as well as supports logic and concentration (Nurfadilah et al., 2020). To motivate children, the token economy technique is used, namely giving temporary prizes such as coins that can be exchanged (Hackenberg, 2018). This program is entitled: "Improving Fine Motor Skills for Children Aged 3-4 Years Using Loose Parts Media with the Token Economy Technique." This study used quantitative research methods with a Pre-Experimental experimental design, using Saturated Sampling techniques. Subject D experienced an increase in fine motor skills of 5 points after three interventions, from Pre-Test 4 to Post-Test 9.
