Background
Lockdowns and social distancing resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic have worsened the population’s mental health and made it more difficult for individuals to receive care. Electronic cognitive behavioral therapy (e-CBT) is a cost-effective and evidence-based treatment for anxiety and depression and can be accessed remotely.

Objective
The objective of the study was to investigate the efficacy of online psychotherapy tailored to depression and anxiety symptoms during the pandemic.

Methods
The pilot study used a pre-post design to evaluate the efficacy of a 9-week e-CBT program designed for individuals with depression and anxiety affected by the pandemic. Participants were adults (N=59) diagnosed with major depressive disorder and generalized anxiety disorder, whose mental health symptoms initiated or worsened during the COVID-19 pandemic. The online psychotherapy program focused on teaching coping, mindfulness, and problem-solving skills. Symptoms of anxiety and depression, resilience, and quality of life were assessed.

Results
Participants demonstrated significant improvements in symptoms of anxiety (P=.02) and depression (P=.03) after the intervention. Similar trends were observed in the intention-to-treat analysis. No significant differences were observed in resilience and quality-of-life measures. The sample comprised mostly females, making it challenging to discern the benefits of the intervention in males. Although a pre-post design is less rigorous than a controlled trial, this design was selected to observe changes in scores during a critical period.

Conclusions
e-CBT for COVID-19 is an effective and accessible treatment option. Improvements in clinical symptoms of anxiety and depression can be observed in individuals whose mental health is affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Degradation properties of Rhizobium petrolearium on different concentrations of crude oil and its derivative fuels
Authors: Osadebe Anwuli U. , Chukwu Chika B. 
Published: November 2023

The degradative efficiency of the recently identified species, Rhizobium petrolearium, on crude oil, diesel, petrol and kerosene was analysed in this study in order to assess its potential as a bioresource in environmental remediation and to investigate the effect of pollutant concentration on degradation efficiency. The identity of the isolate was confirmed by 16S rRNA sequencing and the variation in crude oil and fuel concentration during the biodegradation assay were measured using gas chromatography. Crude oil and the fuels were readily biodegradable at both single and tenfold concentrations, with petrol being the most degraded by the end of the study. Pollutant concentration was shown to affect degradation properties. At 1% concentration, the hydrocarbon compounds were almost completely degraded (99.3 to 99.6%) by day 5, but at the 10% concentration, the degradation level ranged from 31.8 to 63.8% on day 21. Crude oil and diesel oil showed the lowest biodegradation rates at 1% concentration and had half-lives of 0.68 and 0.64 days, respectively. Crude oil and kerosene were the most poorly degraded at 10% concentration with half-lives of 39.61 and 19.80 days, respectively. The C9 – C17 aliphatic fractions were generally the most readily utilised. This study presents a description of the biodegradation capabilities of R. petrolearium against crude oil and its derivative fuels and provides data regarding the possible role of this isolate in the development of bioaugmentation-focused bioremediation systems.

Published: November 2023

Fungal disease is one of the major challenges that affects yield quality and profit in dragon fruit production today, as it causes a considerable amount of production loss. In this study, fungal pathogens of dragon fruit (Hylocereus undatus) plants in Southern Philippines were identified. Sample collection was conducted in selected farms in Saranggani Province, Philippines. Diseased parts of the dragon fruit plants were collected and brought to the laboratory to culture its associated fungi. Grown fungi were pure cultured and subjected to pathogenicity testing using the detached stem method. A total of eight distinct fungal colonies were isolated from the collected dragon fruit samples. The pathogenicity test revealed that three of the isolates caused lesions in a healthy dragon fruit plant tissue, which turned yellow soft and watery as the infection progressed. The three pathogenic isolates were molecularly identified as Fusarium oxysporum (FRI3), Aspergillus minisclerotigenes (FRI2), and Fusarium incarnatum (FLI3). Interestingly, F. incarnatum and A. minisclerotigenes were new recorded pathogens of dragon fruit. Identification of fungal pathogens on economically important crops is an essential step in the development of strategies to address problems related to fungal diseases which, in turn, will help farmers to enhance their production.
The Influence of Management Information System Transition on Individual Impact Mediated by Perceived Ease of Use and Usefulness
Authors: Hizkia Made , Ariadi Gede 
Published: November 2023

Objectives: The aim of the research is to reveal how perceived usefulness and ease of use can bridge the gap among the impacts on individuals of information quality, system quality, and service quality.Methodology: This study uses a quantitative method to assess the theoretical model by asking several questions linked to Google Forms. This study utilized a quantitative analysis instrument by SmartPLS software. Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modelling utilizes data analysis. The population of this study were employees at PT KIMI which moved to manufacture tire products in West Java with a total sample of 75 respondents. The data analysis used is the Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Model (PLS-SEM) by SmartPLS 3.0 software. The initial phase in data analysis is to summarize figures on the respondents' descriptions. The subsequent phase is to gauge the validity and reliability through discriminant validity and reliability tests.Finding: The study results showed that employees' perceived usefulness and ease of use mediate the relationship between information quality, system quality, and individual impact. Conversely, the service quality could not directly influence individual impact through perceived usefulness. Perceived ease of use and usefulness serially mediate the relationship between system quality, service quality, and individual impact. Conclusion: The perceived ease of use and usefulness variables can serially mediate the relationship between system quality and service quality on individual impact. Users of information systems will feel a more significant personal impact if perceived usefulness and ease of use are implemented to achieve comfortable working.

Published: November 2023

Objectives: A company’s bottom line analysis is one of the essential factors that should be done by the shareholders when deciding to invest their shares in the company. It gives a clear view of whether shares will be bought, sold, or retained. This research aims to reveal the effectiveness of liquidity which is represented by current ratio (CR) solvency in the form of debt-to-equity ratio (DER) and profitability proxies by return on equity (ROE) towards Stock returns in service sector Industries.Methodology: The research population used consists of 76 service sector firms that are active in the property, real estate, and building construction sectors that are registered at the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The purposive method is used as the sampling technique with a total sample of 22 service companies. The data used in this study were gathered from financial reports during 2016-2020. Panel data regression is performed while the analysis technique is processed through E-views 9.Finding The results indicate the implementation of the fixed effect model has found that liquidity in this case is the current ratio and profitability which is represented by ROE showed that variables do not affect stock returns while solvency which is represented by debt-to-equity ratio has an impact on the stock returns. The current ratio does not affect the return on equity, while the debt-to-equity ratio has a negative effect on return on equity. The current ratio and debt-to-equity ratio mediated by return on equity do not affect stock returns.Conclusion: High liquidity indicates an increase in company performance but in this case, liquidity is still not considered as a determining factor for investors in investing because investors are more focused on the use of capital and debt.

Authors: Tedjokusumo Dave David 
Published: November 2023

<p><em>The purpose of this study is to analyze, and find out the nature of the tender conspiracy, and the impact arising from the KPPU Decision. This research must be reviewed immediately in order to minimize cases of tender conspiracy practices, considering that these cases are the most handled by KPPU today. The research method used in this study is normative juridical, using statutory approach, conceptual, case, and comparative, so that the research to be studied is not vague, systematic, and clear. This study will be described in full related to the conflict of norms, especially the incompleted norm in PP Number 44 of 2021. The conflict of norms can arise because the rules related to the procedures for stopping the practice of tender conspiracy are not clear and complete, so that their implementation cannot realize justice, expediency, and legal certainty. Therefore, in this study, a solution was given specifically to the government to immediately review PP Number 44 of 2021, so that the perpetrators of the tender conspiracy get a loot effect, and do not repeat their actions. KPPU should also set additional administrative fines, which can be in the form of fines for goods and services won by bidders unreasonably.</em></p><p>Tujuan dalam penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis, serta menemukan hakikat dari persekongkolan tender, dan dampak yang timbul atas adanya Putusan KPPU. Penelitian ini harus segera dikaji agar dapat meminimalisir perkara praktik persekongkolan tender, mengingat perkara tersebut yang paling banyak ditangani oleh KPPU saat ini. Metode penelitian yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah yuridis normatif, dengan menggunakan pendekatan Peraturan Perundang-Undangan, konseptual, kasus, dan komparatif, agar penelitian yang akan dikaji tidak kabur, sistematis, dan jelas. Dalam penelitian ini akan diuraikan secara lengkap terkait dengan adanya konflik norma, khususnya <em>incompleted norm</em> pada PP Nomor 44 Tahun 2021. Konflik Norma tersebut dapat timbul karena aturan terkait tata cara penghentian praktik persekongkolan tender tidak jelas, dan lengkap, sehingga pada implementasinya tidak dapat mewujudkan keadilan, kemanfaatan, dan kepastian hukum. Maka dari itu, dalam penelitian ini diberikan solusi yang secara khusus ditujukan kepada pemerintah untuk segera mengkaji ulang PP Nomor 44 Tahun 2021, agar para pelaku persekongkolan tender mendapatkan efek jerah, dan tidak mengulangi lagi perbuatannya. KPPU pun sebaiknya juga menetapkan denda administratif tambahan, yang dapat berupa denda atas barang, dan jasa yang dimenangkan peserta tender secara tidak wajar.</p><p> </p><p align="center"><strong><em> </em></strong></p>

Published: November 2023

Objectives: We examine the impact of economic sectors, including agriculture, industry, services, and exports, on Indonesia’s food security. Furthermore, we investigate the influence of three types of capital—direct investment, infrastructure, and human capital—and several socioeconomic factors—inequality, unemployment, poverty, and population density. Methods/Analysis: Using data on all 34 Indonesian provinces from 2011 to 2019, we employ the generalized method of moments and other panel techniques to assess four food security indicators: a principal component analysis-based food index, daily protein consumption, daily calorie consumption, and agricultural production. Findings: investment significantly drives agricultural production and food security. Net exports are positively associated with calorie intake, protein consumption, and food security. Surprisingly, infrastructure expenditure negatively affects calorie and protein consumption. While expanding manufacturing activities threaten food security, growth in agriculture and the service sector supports higher protein and calorie intake. Factors such as income inequality, poverty, and unemployment positively correlate with agricultural production. Novelty/Improvements:As societal welfare decreases, agricultural production increases alongside shifts in dietary preferences. Agriculture serves as a source of employment during economic downturns. Conversely, a higher Human Development Index and population density suggest that as Indonesia flourishes economically, the demand for calorie- and protein-rich foods grows, even as agricultural production declines.

A New Opening: Presidential Address for the 11th World Congress of the IASA, Katowice, Poland, 7-10 September 2023
Authors: Jędrzejko Paweł 
Published: November 2023

The article opening the present issue is based on Paweł Jędrzejko's "Presidential Address" prepared for the audiences of the 11th World Congress of the International American Studies Association. Offering an insight into the most recent transformations of the IASA and of its journal, the Review of International American Studies, the author of the text pays homage to scholars, whose committment has proven instrumental for the development of the Organization itself, but also for the standing of the RIAS, which enjoys the status of a ranking periodical. The article, essentially historical in its assumptions, indicates the need of the adjustment of the Organization's bylaws to account for the changing academic reality in which it now functions.
