2. Abstract and Keywords

Abstract (English)

The abstract must be written in one paragraph and consist of 150–250 words. It should clearly include the following components:

  • Objectives: Briefly describe the main purpose of the research and explain why the study is important.

  • Methodology: Describe the research type (qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods), data collection techniques, and data analysis methods without excessive technical details.

  • Findings: Present the main results of the research, focusing on the most significant or relevant findings.

  • Research Implications: Explain how the findings contribute to theory, policy, or practice.

  • Originality: Emphasize the novelty and unique contribution of the research compared to previous studies.

Keywords

Keywords consist of 3–5 words or phrases, separated by semicolons (;), representing the core concepts of the study.
Example: keyword 1; keyword 2; keyword 3

3. Introduction

The introduction must be structured into four integrated components to ensure clarity and academic rigor:

a. Social Facts (Fakta Sosial)

Describe a crucial social phenomenon relevant to the research topic (social, cultural, religious, economic, or political). Explain its impact on society and justify why the issue is important to be studied academically and practically. Support the discussion with empirical evidence such as statistics, surveys, or credible reports.

b. Literature Facts (Fakta Literatur)

Review relevant previous studies and group them into at least three thematic categories. Each category should be supported by 3–5 studies demonstrating variations in approach or findings. Identify gaps, limitations, or unanswered questions in existing literature that justify the need for the current research.

c. Research Objectives

Clearly state the objectives of the study, emphasizing how the research addresses the identified gaps in previous studies. Objectives must be specific, focused, and directly linked to the research problem.

d. Arguments or Hypotheses

Formulate arguments or hypotheses as provisional answers to the research questions. Hypotheses should explain relationships between variables or predict outcomes and must be theoretically grounded and aligned with the research objectives.


4. Research Method

The Research Method section explains what is studied, why the method is chosen, and how the research is conducted, presented in five integrated paragraphs:

  1. Unit of Analysis
    Clearly define the object or subject of the research (individuals, groups, institutions, texts, events, or artifacts).

  2. Research Design
    Explain the choice of research design (qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods) and justify why it is appropriate.

  3. Data Sources
    Describe the sources of data, such as informants, respondents, documents, manuscripts, literature, or audiovisual materials.

  4. Data Collection Techniques
    Explain how data were collected (interviews, observations, questionnaires, surveys, FGD, etc.) and mention the instruments used.

  5. Data Analysis Techniques
    Describe the stages of data analysis, such as thematic analysis, statistical analysis, or narrative analysis, depending on the research design.


5. Results and Discussion

Results

Results see presented systematically according to the research objectives or questions. Each subsection should include:

  • Data Presentation: Empirical evidence obtained from the research.

  • Data Visualization: Tables, figures, or graphs (if applicable).

  • Restatement: Re-explanation of the data in clearer terms.

  • Description: Identification of patterns or tendencies (3–4 key patterns).

  • Interpretation: Explanation of the meaning and relevance of the findings.

Discussion

The discussion provides in-depth analysis and interpretation of the results through:

  1. Summary of key findings

  2. Explanation of why the findings occurred

  3. Comparison with previous studies (highlighting novelty)

  4. Interpretation of theoretical, social, or ideological implications

  5. Reflection on functional and dysfunctional impacts

  6. Policy or practical recommendations (action plan)


6. Conclusion

The conclusion must include:

  1. Main Findings
    A concise summary of the most important insights obtained from the research.

  2. Scientific Contribution
    Explanation of the study’s contribution to theory, methodology, or empirical knowledge.

  3. Research Limitations and Future Directions
