This study aims to analyze the influence of financial application usage, social media exposure, and shopping habits on students' financial management. The research method used is a quantitative approach with multiple linear regression analysis techniques. Data were collected through questionnaires from 150 student respondents. The results of the instrument test showed that all statement items were valid and reliable. The clinical assumption test showed that the data were normally distributed and there was no multicollinearity and heteroscedasticity. The results of the regression analysis showed that the use of financial applications had a positive and significant effect on students' financial management. Conversely, social media exposure and spending habits had a significant negative impact on students' financial management. Simultaneous test results showed that all three independent variables significantly influenced students' financial management. The coefficient of determination (CoE) of 0.746 indicates that 74.6% of the variation in students' financial management can be explained by the use of financial applications, social media exposure, and spending habits, while the remaining influence was attributed to other factors outside the study. The research findings indicate that utilizing financial technology helps students manage their finances more effectively, while high social media exposure and spending habits tend to decrease students' financial management skills.

This study aims to examine the influence of a hedonic lifestyle, peer pressure, financial literacy, self-efficacy, and social media on the consumer behavior of students at Universitas Prima Indonesia. The research approach used was quantitative with descriptive methods. The study population consisted of 300 students from various faculties. The sample was determined using simple random sampling, and based on the Slovin formula with a 5% margin of error, 171 respondents were obtained. The research data were primary data collected through questionnaires and analyzed using SPSS version 25. The analysis techniques used included validity testing, reliability testing, descriptive statistical analysis, classical assumption tests (normality, multicollinearity, and heteroscedasticity), and hypothesis testing using t-tests, F-tests, and the coefficient of determination (R²). The results are expected to identify variables that significantly influence student consumer behavior, both partially and simultaneously. These findings are expected to contribute to the development of consumer behavior studies and serve as a reference for students in financial management and controlling consumer behavior.

This study aims to determine the effect of employability, work motivation, and leadership on the job satisfaction of Generation Z employees in Medan City. This study uses a causal quantitative approach by distributing questionnaires to 170 Generation Z employee respondents in Medan City. The sampling technique used purposive sampling with the criteria of employees born between 1997–2012 and actively working in Medan City. The sample size was determined following Hair et al. (2013) with 16 indicators multiplied by 10. The data analysis technique used Partial Least Square – Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS 4.0. The results showed that: (1) employability has a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction (T=3.810; P=0.000); (2) work motivation has a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction (T=9.900; P=0.000); (3) leadership has a negative and significant effect on job satisfaction (T=1.992; P=0.047). Simultaneously, all three variables have a significant effect with F-count 77.04 > F-table 3.054. The R² value of 0.582 indicates that 58.2% of the variation in job satisfaction is explained by the three variables.

The work environment had a positive and significant effect on employee performance with a calculated t-value of 7.871 and a significance of 0.000 <0.05, and was the most dominant variable. Workload also had a positive and significant effect on employee performance with a calculated t-value of 4.783 and a significance of 0.000 <0.05. Simultaneously, leadership style, work environment, and workload significantly influence employee performance, with a calculated F-value of 119.211 and a significance level of 0.000 < 0.05.
