The influence of social support on academic performance: The mediating role of cognitive engagement

Academic performance, which measures a student’s success in learning, is influenced by various factors. One of the most important determinants of academic performance is social support. Parents, teachers, and friends all play a critical role in providing the necessary support that affects students’ cognitive engagement. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the relationship between social support and academic performance, which could be directly or indirectly mediated by cognitive engagement. The subjects used were 228 high school students in 11th grade, aged 15-18. Data were measured using Academic Performance Rating Scale (APRS), Child and Adolescent Social Support Scale (CASS), and Students Engagement Scale (SES) with Cronbach’s alpha values of 0.84, 0.93, and 0.88, respectively. The mediation analysis was conducted using the PROCESS model 4 developed by Hayes. The results showed that the relationship between social support and academic performance occurred through the mediation of cognitive engagement (� = 0.16), with no direct correlation (� = 0.12, p = 0.350). Specifically, more excellent social support was associated with increased cognitive engagement (� = 0.50, p = 0.000), leading to improved academic performance (� = 0.32, p = 0.005). Therefore, it was confirmed that social support is essential to students’ cognitive engagement and academic performance

PENGEMBANGAN ALAT UKUR TES CHINNING UP BERBASIS SENSOR INFRARED DAN SENSOR ULTRASONIC DENGAN SEVEN SEGMENT DISPLAY.

Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian tentang pengembangan alat ukur tes chinning up berbasis sensor infrared dan sensor ultrasonic dengan seven segment display. Tujuan dari penelitian ini yaitu terciptanya alat ukur untuk mengukur daya tahan kekuatan lengan untuk perempuan berupa tiang portable yang bisa di atur pengukurannya dan juga dilengkapi sensor. Alasan dari tujuan ini adalah untuk meminimalisir gerakan chin up yang kurang benar seperti saat dagu tidak melewati palang , lengan tidak lurus dan penghitungan yang kurang tepat sehingga alat ini perlu digunakan saat melakukan tes chin up. Metode penelitian yang digunakan yaitu metode research and development, karena penelitian ini melakukan pengembangan dan menghasilkan produk. Setelah diuji cobakan kepada sampel, hasilnya menujukan bahwa tidak terdapat perbedaan rata-rata dari setiap tes. Hal ini menunjukan bahwa alat yang dikembangkan dapat bekerja dengan baik dan melakukan fungsinya sebagai alat ukur daya tahan kekuatan lengan. Temuan lainnya yaitu tidak terdapat perbedaan rata-rata antara tes chin up dengan sensor dan tes chin up tanpa sensor, namun jika dilihat dari rata-rata dari perolehan tes, tes tanpa sensor memiliki nilai rata-rata yang sedikit lebih besar dibandingkan dengan tes menggunakan sensor hal ini menunjukan bahwa tes menggunakan sensor lebih baik dikarenakan bantuan beberapa sensor.;--- Chinningup or exercise to measure arm strength endurance used worldwide to assess someone's physical fitness is very important for army recruits and some particular sports. However, the existing tools has several issues that do not have sensors that can calculate the movement perfectly, often has human error when the calculation of the movement, and has limited availability of pole chinning up that is usually just next to the jogging track. Therefore, the researcher efforts to develop tools free standing-up chinning bar chinning up stations for test-based infrared sensors and ultrasonic sensors with seven segment display. This research aimed to determine the working system and test results of chinning up measurement instrument based on infrared and ultrasonic sensors with seven segment display. The hypothesis is the development of chinning up measuring instrument based on infrared and ultrasonic sensors with seven segment display. Sampling was done randomly, namely to the criteria of reproductive age and women that was conducted at the stadium Indonesia University of Education and Sport Sciences Laboratory FPOK UPI Bandung. Thesis supervisor hadrole as an expert validator.The result showed that there is no difference between chinning up using and without a sensor, yet the average from the group test has bigger value. The implications derived from this research that chinning up measuring instrument based on infrared and ultrasonic sensors can be used by all people, especially women and can figure out either right moves or not automatically. As recommendation is this research should be continued with the support and assistance program of sport science program study and even sports agencies or organizations to develop further a national product of Indonesia

Service Quality and Customer Satisfaction in the Hotel Industry

Common perception by practitioners in the hotel industry today that satisfied guest would become profitability to the company is considered as a major subject for this research. Therefore, this study is conducted to extend the previous research on the service quality by examining the relationship between service quality and customer's satisfaction. The importance of this study is to identify the factors that lead to guest's satisfaction and also proposing a method to assist hotel in identifying characteristics which will increase customer's satisfaction. In this research, the service quality is measured through perception of hotel guest and manager toward the service quality of three hotels located in Kota Bharu by using five dimensions of SERVQUAL (tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance and empathy). There are also another two additional dimensions used which are food quality and reasonable price. On the other hand, the model gaps were also applied in order to identify the gaps between perception of hotel managers and guest (Gap 1) and between perceptions and expectation of customers (Gap 5) towards service quality of hotel. The hypotheses of this study supported that there are significant relationship between service quality and customer's satisfaction. Besides that, this study found that there is difference regarding perceptions between hotel manager and guest. However there is no difference for customers' perception and expectation regarding the hotel service except for two variables which are tangible and customer satisfaction
