The primary objective of this study is to examine how digital media literacy influences online religious engagement and identity formation among Indonesian Muslims, considering the role of personal comprehension of Islamic teachings. A quantitative survey was conducted with 320 adult participants from diverse regions who actively followed Islamic preachers on social media platforms. The methodology tested sequential relationships among digital media literacy, virtual religion engagement, self-identity, and cultural identity. Results indicate that higher levels of digital media literacy are associated with more reflective engagement with online religious content, which strengthens self-identity and reinforces cultural identity. Findings also reveal that individual depth of religious understanding provides a critical foundation for responsible interpretation of digital content, while media literacy enhances the ability to critically evaluate information, navigate platform dynamics, and engage ethically. Overall, the study demonstrates that combining strong personal religious knowledge with digital media literacy supports informed, reflective, and culturally grounded religious participation. These outcomes highlight the strategic role of digital literacy in shaping contemporary religious experiences and sustaining both personal and communal dimensions of faith in digital environments.

Differences in understanding between religions and cultures characterise the emergence of intolerance in society. These conditions can contribute to the breakdown of religious life and result in subjective interpretations of truth that disregard others' perspectives. The research method used a mixed method with a sequential exploratory model. Data collection techniques included interviews, observations, literature studies (qualitative), and questionnaires (quantitative). This study aims to reveal the dynamics of cultural da'wah, the process of Muhammadiyah internalisation, and the relationship between Muhammadiyah and syncretic Islam in shaping the value of tolerance in Yogyakarta. The results of the study show several things, namely 1) there are dynamics of cultural da'wah described by the concepts of hablumminallah and hablumminannas with examples of each entity's attitude towards the night of Suro; 2) there is involvement of each entity in Muhammadiyah activities with conservative teaching materials and adaptive methods, as demonstrated by the processes of acculturation, assimilation, and accommodation in each entity's religious activities; and 3) the phenomena observed in this case study illustrate the relationship between Muhammadiyah and Syncretic Islam in shaping the value of tolerance in Yogyakarta. The relationship between the two can fulfil the indicators of the active tolerance model by being able to coexist peacefully and strive to respect diversity.

This study aims to examine the reporting of the Israeli aggression towards in the Indonesian newspaper Republika during the years 1999 and 2021, with a contextual reference to the 2024 Gaza genocide. The reports were selected through purposive sampling, focusing on direct coverage from both 1999 and 2021. Additionally, interviews were conducted with members of Republika's editorial team. Using Entman’s framing theory as well as Shoemaker and Reese’s Hierarchy of Influences model, the research identifies notable differences in news framing between the two periods. In 1999, the coverage in Republika largely emphasised political support from prominent figures, both in Indonesia and internationally, advocating for the defence of Palestine. In contrast, the 2021 coverage highlighted support from civil society, including athletes and celebrities. Differences are also evident across several levels of the Hierarchy of Influences model, with the media routine, organisational, and ideological levels being the most prominent. In 1999, Republika’s reporting on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in the international section was relatively independent, focusing primarily on political issues. By 2021, however, the reporting followed a compartmentalised model, where one section complemented and connected with others. Despite the differences in time and ownership, Republika's stance on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict remained consistent. The newspaper continues to assert that the Palestinian people must be defended, a position shaped by its Muslim readership, who maintain a strong psychological connection with Palestinian Muslims. Keywords: Framing, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, media ownership, the influence of mass media hierarchy, Republika.

The purpose of this study is to examine how public opinions about maintaining a healthy lifestyle during the COVID-19 pandemic are influenced by social media and word-of-mouth (WOM). The research method used is a quantitative approach. This research was conducted in Jakarta by collecting data through the distribution of questionnaires to 200 respondents. The respondents were selected through a purposive sampling technique with several characteristics. Hypothesis testing in this study uses multiple linear regression analysis. The findings of this study show that there is a significant influence between social media and WOM on people's healthy lifestyles during the COVID-19 pandemic. This is indicated by the results of the regression equation which shows a positive correlation. In other words, health promotion during the COVID-19 pandemic is influenced by social media and WOM. The study also concluded that during the COVID -19 pandemic, people relied heavily on opinion leaders in their communities and on social media which they followed. This is due to the impact of technological advances. They are used to accessing social media for health information. So the role of WOM is very influential in people's attitudes towards healthy living. This research has implications for the healthy lifestyles of people in Indonesia. In addition, interpersonal WOM communication strategies are important in building a society that values healthy lifestyles after the COVID-19 pandemic.

This study set out to identify and analyze toxic relationships in interpersonal communication among adolescents. The toxic relationship, as an unhealthy relationship, does have an impact on the occurrence of internal conflicts. Such relationships often cause the people involved to encounter unproductiveness and mental disorders, which can trigger an emotional outburst that leads to violence. A qualitative approach was used as the research method. The data collection techniques comprised FGD, observation, and in-depth interviews with informants/participants as primary data. The study findings show that first, the perpetrators of toxic relationships, namely toxic people, could be those closest to the victims, such as the nuclear family (father, mother, and siblings). In addition, the perpetrator could be a lover in an unhealthy romantic relationship or peers and even friends who often do the bullying via verbal, physical, or even sexual violence. Second, toxic relationships can be categorized into several forms, namely unhealthy relationships with friends (‘toxic friendship’), parents/family (‘toxic parenting’), lovers, and cheating parents, which can affect a child’s mentality. Actions necessary include the raising of awareness and concern for the community. If violent behavior occurs, it is not permissible to act permissive. The individual approach carried out during victim assistance can entail consultations in the form of ‘vent sessions’. A powerful way to anticipate being trapped in an unhealthy relationship is via self-love. Counselling is carried out with a self-healing approach to restore victims’ self-confidence and maintain their mental health.
