Authors: Riisager Lisa Groenberg , Moeller Stine Bjerrum , Larsen Jakob Eg , Christiansen Thomas Blomseth , Aagaard Jesper , Huniche Lotte
Published: January 2025

BACKGROUND

Wearable self-tracking technologies are increasingly recognized for their potential to enhance therapeutic engagement and personalize treatment. While many instruments emphasize passive data collection, their role in actively mediating therapeutic processes remains underexplored. This study explores how the One Button Tracker (OBT), a novel single-purpose wearable self-tracking instrument, supports psychotherapeutic treatment by enabling patients to track self-defined, personally relevant phenomena during their daily lives.

OBJECTIVE

To explore how the OBT mediates the psychotherapeutic process in patients’ daily lives, focusing on its impact on therapeutic engagement, self-awareness, and the therapeutic relationship.

METHODS

This qualitative study was part of a larger Participatory Action Research project conducted at a specialized clinic for trauma survivors in Denmark. Nine patients, refugees diagnosed with Complex PTSD, used the OBT as part of their therapy. Semi-structured interviews were conducted at three stages: before, during, and after treatment. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the data, guided by postphenomenological framework focusing on technologies mediation of the human-world relations.

RESULTS

Thematic analysis identified five key themes describing the OBT’s multistable roles: (1) From external instrument to extension of the self (2) mental switch (3) a faithful companion (4) scarlet letter, and (5) emergency lifeline. The OBT supported engagement in therapeutic interventions during moments of distress, enhanced emotional regulation, and strengthened the therapeutic relationship by extending its influence beyond clinical sessions. Its simplicity and vibrotactile feedback facilitated engagement and usability, while its multistability allowed patients to adapt its use to their intentions and contexts. However, the presence and sometimes visibility of the OBT introduced complex social dynamics, amplifying both engagement and stigma depending on individual circumstances and context.

CONCLUSIONS

The findings suggest that the OBT acts as an active mediator in the therapeutic process, fostering agency, emotional regulation, and engagement. By shifting the focus from passive data collection to meaningful interaction with the instrument, the OBT highlights the potential of wearable self-tracking instruments to actively shape therapeutic experiences. These insights underscore the value of designing digital mental health instruments that prioritize simplicity, multistability, and relational engagement to support personalized and context-sensitive care.

Authors: Singh Amar , Chauhan Tarun Kumar
Published: January 2025

BACKGROUND

Background: Peripheral nerve thickening and inflammation are major complications of neuritic leprosy, leading to debilitating outcomes like clawing and sensory loss. Ultrasound-guided perineural platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy can be used as a adjuvant treatment in Hansen’s neuritis management.

OBJECTIVE

Objective: To evaluate the impact of PRP therapy on the cross-sectional area (CSA) reduction of peripheral nerves in neuritic leprosy cases and explore its potential therapeutic benefits.

METHODS

Methods: Case series A pilot study was conducted on 10 cases of treated neuritic leprosy. PRP was prepared using a standard two-step centrifugation process and administered via ultrasound-guided perineural injections at targeted nerve sites. CSA measurements were taken before and after therapy to assess efficacy.

RESULTS

Results: Varying degrees of CSA reduction were observed, with a mean reduction of 16.82%. Maximum reduction was 59.18%, while some cases showed minimal or no change, and one case had a negative outcome (-5.26%).

CONCLUSIONS

Conclusions: Variability in response highlights the need for tailored protocols and further large-scale studies to optimize outcomes
Interdisciplinary Approaches to Arabic Language Learning: Enhancing Engagement and Global Competence Language Learning
Authors: Yusuf Tajudeen
Published: January 2025

This paper investigates the potential of interdisciplinary programs to enhance Arabic language learning by integrating it with disciplines such as business, international relations, and cultural studies. The study is grounded in empirical research conducted across several educational institutions where interdisciplinary approaches have been implemented. By analyzing quantitative data from student performance metrics, enrollment figures, and retention rates, alongside qualitative data from student and faculty interviews, the paper provides a comprehensive evaluation of these programs. The findings indicate that students enrolled in interdisciplinary Arabic programs exhibit higher engagement and improved language proficiency compared to those in traditional language courses. Furthermore, these programs have been shown to attract a more diverse student body, including those who may not have otherwise pursued Arabic studies. However, the research also identifies significant challenges, such as the complexity of curriculum design and the need for specialized faculty training. The paper concludes with recommendations for best practices in developing and sustaining successful interdisciplinary Arabic language programs, emphasizing the importance of strategic resource allocation, robust faculty collaboration, and targeted recruitment efforts. These insights contribute to the broader discourse on language education, offering a model for enhancing the relevance and accessibility of Arabic language learning in a globalized context.

Civil Liability for the Damage Inflicted on Natural Objects: Gaps in the Russian Legislation
Authors: Ivanova S. I.
Published: January 2025

Introduction. Global climate change, the reduction of wildlife populations, and ecological disturbances remain the most acute problems – the negative anthropogenic impact on nature increases and becomes more diverse. Therefore, the work on the creation of the efficient tools for protecting and restoring natural resources continues at the international and national levels of legal regulation. One of these tools is civil liability for the damage inflicted on the natural objects, which is insufficiently elaborated in the Russian legislation. The aim of the paper is to analyse the problems of legal regulation in the field of conservation and use of the natural objects in the Russian Federation and to offer recommendations to solve them.

Materials and Methods. To conduct the research, philosophical methods of cognition (metaphysics, dialectics of objectivity, empirical, prognostic, logical), as well as the general scientific methods (complex analysis) and specific scientific methods of cognition (comparative and system analysis for studying the interdisciplinary relationships between civil and environmental law) were used.

Results. The efficient application of the civil liability mechanisms for the damage inflicted on the natural objects is hindered by the following main gaps in the Russian Federation legislation: the lack of uniform and clear terminology; shortcomings in the methods of assessing the environmental damage; inconsistency between the principles of compensation for the environmental damage in different branches of law; insufficient role of anticipatory measures in preventing the environmental damage.

Discussion and Conclusion. Based on the results of the analysis, a number of proposals have been outlined to improve the acting legislation of the Russian Federation, which will ensure implementation of the civil liability measures for violation of the laws regulating the use of wildlife objects and their habitat. The reasoned recommendations developed by the author can be used as a theoretical basis for the advanced scientific developments in the studied field.
Remote Criminal Proceedings in EU Law from the Perspective of Strengthening the Rights of the Accused
Authors: Žukovaitė Inga
Published: January 2025

This article analyses remote proceedings as a new form of participation in the criminal process in the context of EU law, with particular reference to the question of whether remote participation could be considered (and established) as part of the defendant’s right to be present at their trial. The question of how technological developments may be used to strengthen the rights of the accused is also considered. The author explores the EU legal framework promoting the use of video conferencing tools as innovative technologies, while also considering the perspective that sees them as representing a practical risk to the observance of procedural rights. The requirement that a videoconference hearing must meet the standards established by the European Court of Human Rights is identified. Following this, the question of whether a videoconference hearing can become an instrument that balances the protection of the rights of the accused with progressive e-justice digitalisation processes when adequately regulated in EU law is addressed. The article concludes with proposals relating to the measures that need to be implemented to effectively protect the rights of the accused, along with steps that should be taken to amend the relevant legislation.
Artificial Intelligence in Manipulation: The Significance and Strategies for Prevention
Authors: Kavoliūnaitė-Ragauskienė Eglė
Published: January 2025

Manipulation has always been a persistent aspect of society, but the rise of artificial intelligence has significantly amplified its scope and impact. AI’s ability to access and process vast amounts of personal data has revolutionized the way individuals can be targeted with specific information. This technology enables the rapid delivery of highly personalized messages, making it easier to exploit psychological vulnerabilities and influence decision-making without the individual’s awareness.

The use of AI for manipulation may pose serious threats to personal autonomy, as individuals are increasingly nudged towards choices they might not have made independently. Beyond personal implications, this also may endanger human rights and the foundations of democracy. By subtly shaping public opinion and electoral behaviour, AI-driven manipulation can undermine the integrity of democratic processes, leading to outcomes that do not truly reflect the will of the people. Acknowledging that not all uses of AI in manipulation are necessarily unacceptable, this article examines the possible approaches to tackle AI’s undesirable impacts in democratic societies rather than manipulation per se. It explores various tools and methods of AI employed for manipulation, identifying key areas where this technology is most used for unacceptable and harmful purpose in democratic society, such as in advertising, political campaigns, and the spread of misinformation. It also analyses the legislative approach of the EU to limit the usage of undesired manipulative AI and explores additional strategies, including ethical guidelines, public education, and technological solutions to mitigate the risks and prevent the misuse of AI for manipulative purposes.
Lithuania’s Binary Worker Classification Vs. A Teleological Interpretation of the EU’s ‘Worker’ Concept by Germany and the UK
Authors: Lauschke Hans
Published: January 2025

The article explores whether Lithuania’s concept of darbuotojas (employee) and its rigid binary classification of work relationships is challenged by an evolving European employment law landscape, shaped by a rise of unconventional work relationships that blur the lines between employees and self-employed persons. This issue is examined in light of varying interpretations of the EU’s ‘worker’ concept(s) in the United Kingdom (UK) and Germany, where courts increasingly extend protections to individuals in atypical employment forms by broadly (re-)interpreting traditional terms. Additionally, their domestic systems recognize intermediate categories between employees and self-employed persons, such as arbeitnehmerähnliche Personen (employee-like persons) in Germany or the UK’s ‘limb (b) workers’, aiming to provide certain protection for a wider group of working individuals. These approaches influence both countries’ understanding of an autonomous EU ‘worker’ concept, particularly evident in connection with Council Directive 89/391/EEC, which introduced measures to enhance the safety and health of workers at work and was adopted more than 30 years ago.

Authors: MONUS Yeşim , AYHÜN Sena ERDEN
Published: January 2025

The objective of this study is to determine the effect of transformational and transactional leadership styles applied by senior managers to the employees working in different positions in Turkey on their job satisfaction behaviors. Moreover, the study also aims to determine the effect of employees' perceptions of emotional intelligence on job satisfaction behaviors. In addition, the mediating role of emotional intelligence in the effect of transformational and transactional leadership styles on job satisfaction behaviors was examined as well. In line with this objective, a questionnaire study was conducted on 542 employees working in different positions in private and public sectors. Research findings demonstrate that transactional and transformational leadership styles and emotional intelligence positively affect job satisfaction. However, the mediating role of emotional intelligence in the relationship between transactional and transformational leadership styles and job satisfaction was not determined.
Deconstructing Dimensions of Authentic Strategic Leadership of State-Owned Enterprises in Malawi: A Literature Analysis
Authors: KANYANGALE MacDonald O'Teleni
Published: January 2025

There is a paucity of research on authentic leadership (AL) of top-level executives, especially in state-owned enterprises (SOEs). The objective of this conceptual paper is to review the extant models of AL and propose a new and comprehensive framework of the dimensions of authentic strategic leadership (ASL) in leading SOEs in Malawi. A background literature review on authenticity and AL was conducted in several peer-reviewed journals to identify the conceptual foundation and nature of authenticity, AL, and dimensions, revealing different and interrelated aspects of AL in the existing models. Six key dimensions of ASL of SOEs in Malawi are connecting the authenticity of self and organization to strategic direction; building organizational, resilience, strategic authenticity, the iterative and authentic influence of internal and external stakeholders, and the collaborative and transparent drive of positive; change and producing direction, alignment, and commitment (DAC). A new framework of ASL is proposed to influence diverse stakeholders to achieve DAC in a SOE in Malawi. Researchers are implored to test and validate the conceptual framework of ASL to enhance its explanatory power.

Authors: Vynograd Nataliya , Vasylyshyn Zoriana , Kozak Lyudmyla , Chaklosh Ihor , Baidalka Iryna , Shul Uliana , Chaplyk-Chyzho Iryna
Published: January 2025

Trench fever is a bartonellosis disease with a transmissible mechanism transmitted via a specific vector - the human body louse (Pediculus humanus), manifested by a sudden onset, relapsing fever, severe pain in the calf muscles, and abundant maculopapular rash.
Aim. The research aims to determine the infestation of the population as a predictor of the occurrence of epidemic complications caused by trench fever and to assess the impact of social factors resulting from the Russo-Ukrainian war on population prevalence rates.
Material and Methods. A comprehensive epidemiological method was employed, involving the analysis of official statistics data on pediculosis, the dynamics and geographical distribution characteristics for years 2021-2023, and the processing of primary literature sources regarding trench fever.
Results. Trench fever remains a relevant endemic transmissible disease in Ukraine. The detection of seropositive individuals in all age groups indicates a hidden epidemic process of this disease, as well as the inadequacy of the epidemiological surveillance system in detecting and recording cases. The increase in the prevalence of pediculosis is the highest in administrative areas with the largest population density of internally displaced persons.
Discussion. The intensity of the epidemic process of trench fever correlates with socio-economic disruptions and wars; it is accompanied by worsening of living conditions and impoverishment of the population. The adaptation of the pathogen to spread by body lice has led to changes in the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of the disease.
Conclusions. Ukraine is endemic of trench fever. During war, active epidemiological surveillance should be conducted to promptly identify cases, with control of pediculosis infestation in the general population.

Aim of the study is the analysis of medical care provision to the population of Donetsk region using telecommu-nications means.
Material and Methods. In the study, a retrospective analysis of the telemedicine services provided to the population of the Ukraine-controlled territory of the Donetsk region in 2023 was carried out using data from the report on the work of the Municipal non-commercial enterprise "Regional Territorial Medical Association of Kramatorsk".
Results and Discussion. In the MNE "RTMA of Kramatorsk" in 2023, telemedicine consultations and outpatient services were provided remotely to patients in 8 areas: therapy, endocrinology, rheumatology, neurology, urology, nephrology, vascular surgery, and hematology. Overall, in 2023, the number of patients who received consultative medical care using telemedicine amounted to 6340 people. The results of the analysis of telemedicine services provided in certain specialties showed that most patients sought help in the field of endocrinology, namely more than a third of patients (35.03±0.60%). Rheumatology was slightly less frequently consulted: 27.46±0.56% of patients. Every tenth patient (10.43±0.38%) needed help in urology. In 2023, the lowest number of telemedicine consultations was conducted for patients with hematologic problems - 1.04±0.13%.
Conclusions. There is a consistently high demand from patients for the provision of telemedicine services by physicians of the following specialties: endocrinology, rheumatology, urology, therapy, neurology. Online communication for the provision of services in new specialties, in particular vascular surgery and hematology, is being actively implemented. During the year, the most frequent period of population requests for telecommunication medical assistance was in most cases the cold season (winter-spring season).

CONCEITO DE AGENDAMENTO ESTRATÉGICO APLICADO A UM ESTUDO DO SUPREMO TRIBUNAL FEDERAL DO BRASIL
Authors: Albuquerque Grazielle
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACT – The article presents the concept of strategic agenda-setting with the objective to propose an analysis model which may help to analyse how the Judiciary communicates. By understanding that the Courts have no direct contact with society, the strategic agenda points out that the way in which the Judiciary shows itself in the public debate depends on communication dynamics. This means that there is an internal axis related to communication advisory and an external axis related to coverage. Such dynamics depend on constraints and opportunities of the political context. It is a policy that sets the tone for the Judiciary to communicate. The concept brings together approaches from communication theory (agenda-setting) with judicial behaviour (strategic model), using quantitative data and semi-structured interviews, and creates an analytical model that was applied to the Federal Supreme Court (STF) of Brazil between the years 1988 to 2004.
RESUMO – O artigo apresenta o conceito de agendamento estratégico para propor um modelo de análise da comunicação do Judiciário. Considerando a ausência de contato direto dos Tribunais com a sociedade, destaca-se que a forma como o Judiciário se posiciona no debate público depende da dinâmica comunicacional. Isso implica em um eixo interno, relacionado à assessoria de comunicação, e um eixo externo, ligado à cobertura. Tais dinâmicas são influenciadas por constrangimentos e oportunidades do contexto político. Assim, a política estabelece o tom da comunicação judicial. O conceito combina abordagens da teoria da comunicação (definição de agenda) e comportamento judicial (modelo estratégico), utilizando dados quantitativos e entrevistas semi-estruturadas. O modelo analítico foi aplicado ao Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) brasileiro entre 1988 e 2004.

Deciphering Driving Forces of Biomolecular Phase Separation from Simulations
Authors: Schäfer Lars , Stelzl Lukas
Published: January 2025

The formation and modulation of biomolecular condensates as well as their structural and dynamic properties are determined by an intricate interplay of different driving forces, which down at the microscopic scale involve molecular interactions of the biological macromolecules and the surrounding solvent and ions. Molecular simulations are increasingly used to provide detailed insights into the various processes and thermodynamic driving forces at play, thereby yielding mechanistic understanding and aiding the interpretation of experiments at the level of individual amino acid residues or even atoms. Here we summarize recent advances in the field of biocondensate simulations with a focus on coarse-grained and all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. We highlight possible future challenges concerning computationally efficient and physically accurate simulations of increasingly large and complex biocondensate systems.

Published: January 2025

We present a novel light-frozen dynamic covalent polymerization methodology to synthesize conjugated polymers based on BisAzaCoroneneDiimides (BACDs). This metal-free process converts reversible poly-imines into kinetically locked conjugated polymers using visible light, generating minimal side-products. By incorporating aldehyde-functionalized comonomers, the approach enables the creation of diverse n-type semiconducting polymers with tunable optical band gaps and low LUMO levels. The polymers exhibit exceptional thermal, electrochemical, and photostability, with strong interchain interactions upon electrochemical reduction observed in solution, attributed to the BACD core. Broad absorp-tion from the visible to near-infrared range underscores their potential in charge and energy transport applications for organic electronics. This scalable, sustainable strategy unlocks access to a versatile class of n-type diimide polymers.

Published: January 2025

Herein we describe a set of privileged and stereocomplementary ene-reductase enzymes which, when induced by light and aided by an exogenous photocatalyst, catalyze the coupling of (hetero)aryl halides and alkenes in an asymmetric intermolecular hydroarylation process. Thus, carbon scaffolds containing C(sp2)-C(sp3) bonds are synthesized enzymatically from simple precursors in excellent enantiomeric excess. Furthermore, an intramolecular coupling is achieved through tethering of (hetero)aryl halides to their alkene reaction partners and in this manner problematic side reactions are suppressed and yields improved. This work extends the utility of photo-induced biocatalysis through the addition of the novel and pharmaceutically important (hetero)aromatic halide class of radical precursors.
Mesterséges intelligencia és paradigmaváltás az üzleti felsőoktatásban: a munkaerőpiaci igények hatása
Authors: Bácsi Katalin , Dén-Nagy Ildikó
Published: January 2025

A mesterséges intelligencia (MI) térhódítása átalakítja az üzleti felsőoktatás működését és a munkaerőpiac felsőoktatással kapcsolatos elvárásait egyaránt. Az előbbi tekintetében az MI hatására sürgetővé válik a tanítási módszerek és az értékelési rendszerek újragondolása, valamint az oktatók és diákok egymáshoz való viszonyának, az oktatási folyamatban résztvevők szerepeinek tisztázása. Az utóbbi kapcsán az oktatási tartalmak átalakítása kerül előtérbe, hiszen megváltozik azoknak a készségeknek és képességeknek a halmaza, amelyek a jövőben versenyképes tudást jelentenek. Például a gyorsan fejlődő MI technológiák miatt nemcsak maga az MI használata jelenik meg új tartalmi elemként, de állandósulhat a folyamatos tanulás, az újra- és továbbképzés, illetve a fejlesztendő kompetenciák közé bekerülnek olyan korábban nem hangsúlyos képességek, mint az innovatív gondolkodás, a kritikai szemlélet, az etikus döntéshozatal vagy a jövőorientáltság. Irodalmi áttekintésünkben arra keressük a választ, hogy az MI térnyerésének hatására hogyan változnak meg a munkaerőpiaci elvárások az üzleti felsőoktatás piacán, illetve, hogy ezek az új elvárások hogyan illeszthetők a felsőoktatásban végbemenő, MI alkalmazáshoz kapcsolódó egyéb változásokhoz, különös tekintettek a változó oktatói és hallgatói szerepekhez. Az MI lehetőséget teremt a felsőoktatás munkaerőpiaci igényekhez való alkalmazkodására, a fejlesztés (puha készségek) és a kutatási készségek előtérbe helyezésére, amelyhez azonban mind az oktatóknak mind a hallgatóknak más-más szerepet kell betölteniük.
Az EU gazdasági versenyképességre vonatkozó koncepciójának és gyakorlatának alakulása 2004-2024 között - néhány tanulság
Authors: Czakó Erzsébet
Published: January 2025

Kutatási kérdésem, hogy a vállalatok versenyképességét középpontba helyező gazdasági versenyképesség koncepciók és azok tartalmi elemei hogyan jelentek, illetve jelennek meg az Európai Bizottság által jegyzett előterjesztésekben és értékelésekben az évek során. A munka másodlagos adatforrásokra támaszkodva az Európai Unió integráció szintű versenyképesség koncepció alakulását, legfőbb horizontális pilléreit, és a koncepciók gyakorlatba ültetését szolgáló, és a tagállamoknak is szóló kezdeményezéseket tekinti át.

The integration of blockchain technology in stamp duty administration requires a clear legal framework to ensure effective implementation. This study evaluates the benefits and challenges of using blockchain in stamp duty imposition and provides regulatory framework recommendations. Using a normative legal approach and analysis of relevant legislation, the research shows that blockchain can significantly enhance efficiency, transparency, and security in the stamp duty process. The immutable nature of blockchain records ensures data integrity and reduces the risk of fraud. Moreover, smart contracts can automate and streamline the transaction process, minimizing human error. However, the adoption of blockchain faces challenges such as high initial costs and the need for regulatory adjustments. In conclusion, the adoption of blockchain in stamp duty administration necessitates comprehensive regulations to ensure the legality and validity of recorded transactions, providing a robust and reliable tax system for the digital age.

This research examines the legal and practical challenges faced by notaries in the process of drafting and approving cooperative establishment deeds in Manado. The study highlights the importance of notaries in providing legal certainty for cooperatives, yet identifies significant gaps in the legal framework governing their authority. Using an empirical approach, data were collected through interviews and observations, revealing issues such as lack of standardized deed formats and insufficient coordination with relevant authorities. The findings suggest that these obstacles not only delay the establishment process but also undermine the credibility of cooperatives as legal entities. The study concludes with recommendations for improving notarial services and ensuring that cooperatives can be established with greater efficiency and legal security.

Problem-solving skills are essential for students to navigate both academic challenges and real-world situations effectively. However, many junior high school students struggle to develop these skills, particularly in science education. This study aims to explore the effects of gamification, using Classcraft, integrated into the 5E Learning Cycle model on the science problem-solving skills of seventh-grade students. Conducted as a quasi-experimental study with a non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design, the research involved a cluster random sample of public junior high schools in Yogyakarta. A pretest-posttest problem-solving skills test was administered, with instruments validated using Pearson correlation and reliability measured through Cronbach's alpha. Data analysis employed independent sample t-tests and effect size to determine the impact of the intervention. The results demonstrate that Classcraft-assisted gamification within the 5E Learning Cycle significantly enhances students' problem-solving abilities. This suggests that integrating gamification into instructional models not only boosts engagement but also fosters critical thinking skills crucial for everyday decision-making and problem resolution, thereby equipping students with practical skills applicable to real-life situations.

Published: January 2025

Abstrak. Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh permasalahan di TK Harapan Ibu, Kecamatan Bojongsoang, Kabupaten Bandung, terkait kekuatan dan koordinasi otot kaki anak yang belum optimal. Hal ini terlihat dari keterbatasan anak dalam melakukan aktivitas seperti naik turun tangga dengan kaki bergantian, berjalan di papan titian dengan seimbang, meloncat dengan satu atau dua kaki, berlari lurus, menendang secara terarah, dan menirukan gerakan sederhana seperti pohon tertiup angin, pesawat terbang, serta kelinci melompat. Penelitian menggunakan metode Penelitian Tindakan Kelas (PTK) yang dilakukan secara kolaboratif antara peneliti, guru, dan kepala sekolah. Subjek penelitian adalah 10 anak usia 4-5 tahun, dengan data diperoleh melalui observasi dan dokumentasi. Setelah dua siklus kegiatan, hasil menunjukkan peningkatan kekuatan dan koordinasi otot kaki anak melalui permainan loncat jejak kaki. Persentase rata-rata meningkat dari 34% pada pra-siklus menjadi 59% pada siklus I, dan 88% pada siklus II.  Peningkatan ini didukung oleh pembiasaan gerakan motorik kasar sebelum pembelajaran, serta penggunaan media jejak kaki yang menarik untuk meningkatkan antusiasme anak. Permainan ini terbukti efektif dalam melatih keseimbangan, koordinasi, dan kekuatan otot kaki anak di TK Harapan Ibu.
Abstract.This study was motivated by problems at Harapan Ibu Kindergarten, Bojongsoang District, Bandung Regency, related to the strength and coordination of children's leg muscles that are not optimal. This can be seen from the children's limitations in doing activities such as going up and down stairs with alternating legs, walking on a footbridge with balance, jumping with one or two feet, running straight, kicking in a directed manner, and imitating simple movements such as trees blowing in the wind, airplanes, and jumping rabbits. The research used the Classroom Action Research (PTK) method which was conducted collaboratively between researchers, teachers, and principals. The research subjects were 10 children aged 4-5 years, with data obtained through observation and documentation. After two cycles of activities, the results showed an increase in children's leg muscle strength and coordination through footprint jumping games. The average percentage increased from 34% in the pre-cycle to 59% in cycle I, and 88% in cycle II. This increase was supported by the habituation of gross motor movements before learning, as well as the use of interesting footprint media to increase children's enthusiasm. This game proved to be effective in training children's balance, coordination, and leg muscle strength at Harapan Ibu Kindergarten.
