To overcome this problem, it is necessary to use the two-stage least squares (2SLS) method as the best estimator by applying the simultaneous equation model. The objective of this study is to analyse the simultaneous equation model between poverty and GDP in a developing country such as Indonesia. The macroeconomic data sources used for this study are secondary time series data from 1990 to 2017 obtained from Indonesia Statistics Agency, IMF, UNDP and World Bank. The result shows that there is strong evidence that poverty and GDP act simultaneously or endogenously in the model. From the results, it is recommended that in order to achieve higher GDP in the future, the Indonesian government should pay more attention to alleviating poverty rates, reducing unemployment rates, lowering merchandise imports, and improving economic growth in addressing macroeconomic problems in the country.","PeriodicalId":470181,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Multidisciplinary Approach Research and Science","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135878754","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There is evidence that mindfulness practices can enhance the mental health and exist over how stress, anxiety, and depression are affected. In this study, the post-graduate students of Odisha were assessed to see how well mindfulness treated their stress, anxiety, and depression symptoms. Objective: To assess the impact of mindfulness on stress, anxiety, and depression among the post-graduate students of Odisha. Methods: Several articles were searched from different online platforms like PubMed, PsycINFO, Google scholar etc. After searching many articles, the data were collected from online survey among the post-graduate students of Odisha by using two questionnaires; those are “FFMQ-15” and DASS-21. The data collected from the post-graduate students inviting them to take part in the online and offline survey during the academic year 2021-2022. This study was selected only as a sample here for the post-graduate students of Odisha. The present study was conducted on the sample of 220. The data were calculated through statistical package for social sciences (SPSS-20 version). Findings: The result shows that the mindfulness reduced stress, anxiety, and depression of post-graduate students of Odisha. The participants reported considerably bigger gains in mindfulness as well as greater decrease in stress, anxiety, and depression. Implication of the Study: The study's findings will raise awareness among the post-graduate students or people from all lifestyles. The mindfulness practice can reduce all type of physical and psychological stress. Moreover, it reduces the academic anxiety and depression.","PeriodicalId":470181,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Multidisciplinary Approach Research and Science","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135824874","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The people of Khonghucu are known to be very good at doing business, so they are generally financially successful. Since obtaining legality since the time of President K.H. Abdurrahman Wahid, Khonghucu has now continued to develop. Among Khonghucu businessmen, are there those who choose to become academics, pursue religion more, and develop Khonghucu? This study used a descriptive qualitative approach with phenomenological methods. The informan was a Khonghucu adherent who had succeeded in becoming a businessman and academic. Data collection techniques are carried out by interviews, observation, and documentation studies. Data validation is done by triangulation, both technique triangulation and source triangulation. The results showed that Khonghucu adherents in Indonesia are very interested in becoming entrepreneurs, although some of them prefer academic careers. Both options are influenced by family culture and values, labor market opportunities and demands, the influence of the educational environment and personal aspirations and abilities of individuals. Those in business contribute to Indonesia's economy, while those who choose academia preserve and pass on Confucian religious traditions to future generations. Both those who choose business and academia recognize that pursuing religion is a valuable devotion for Confucians and Indonesian society as a whole.","PeriodicalId":470181,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Multidisciplinary Approach Research and Science","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135878620","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results of the regression analysis indicated that regional financial statement presentation had no significant effect on the transparency of regional financial management. In contrast, the accessibility of regional financial statements was found to have a significant positive effect on transparency. Additionally, internal control was not found to have a significant impact on transparency, nor did the implementation of performance-based budgeting.

The findings show that national economic fluctuations, national tax policies, and local tax policies have a significant impact on Buton Regency's PAD. Apart from that, the potential of local natural resources and the active participation of local stakeholders are also key factors in the strategy to increase PAD. This research also highlights the importance of increasing internal capacity in regional financial management.

ThereforeThe aim of this research is to determine the effect of variations in the width of the bowl blade on the vertical shaft kinetic water turbine power.The research method used is an experimental method with an experimental design on a laboratory scale. Tests were carried out on three variations of blade width, from the results of the study it can be concluded that increasing the water flow rate, turbine rotation, and the ratio of tangential speed to the turbine blade width can increase the kinetic water turbine power. In this study, variations in blade width were 10 cm, 11 cm, and 12 cm. Increasing turbine blade sheets increased turbine power due to the additional mass of the flow hitting the turbine blades thereby affecting the kinetic water turbine power. Analysis of the water flow rate shows that the maximum turbine power occurs at a blade width of 12 cm and a discharge of 0.017 m3/second with a turbine power value of 25.455 Watt. Analysis of turbine rotation, Maximum turbine power occurs at a blade width of 12 cm and rotation of 80 rpm with a turbine power value of 23,864 Watts. Meanwhile, analysis of the tangential speed ratio shows that the maximum turbine power occurs at a blade width of 12 cm and at a tangential speed ratio of 0.5 rad/s2 with a turbine power value of 23,864 Watts.
