Losing parents at an early age has a negative impact on children's development, psychologically, emotionally and socially. Orphans often face great challenges in social problems so that they cannot prepare for an adequate future, with skills training aimed at empowering orphans for a more independent future. This study aims to determine the implementation of skills programs in increasing the independence of orphans in orphanages. The research method used is qualitative, with data coming from participants or orphans who take part in skills training at the Wisma Karya Bakti Orphanage and caregivers. The sample was taken using purposive technique as many as 7 people. Data collection techniques include observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis is carried out by a method that involves steps such as working with data, organizing, sorting, synthesizing, identifying patterns, finding relevant information, and determining important points. The results showed that the implementation of the skills program carried out by the Wisma Karya Bakti Orphanage is currently implementing 3 stages carried out from the awareness stage as the initial stage of orphans being made aware of the importance of having skills. Then the transformation of knowledge orphans are given some skills training. Then finally increasing the intellectual and skill proficiency of the orphans is given the opportunity to apply the skills that have been learned. The three stages in empowerment through skills help develop the potential that exists within orphans in increasing their independence.

Air quality in Western Java is highly dynamic and shaped by environmental changes influenced by intense human activities. Aerosols—tiny particulate matter that affects air quality, weather, and climate—can be quantified using Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD), which measures aerosol concentrations in the atmospheric column. This research uses spatial regression analysis to examine the spatial distribution of AOD from GEE’s platform (Google Earth Engine) and its relationship with rainfall and wind patterns during both the wet and dry seasons. The findings indicate that wind speed does not significantly impact AOD values, but wind direction does affect the distribution of rainfall and AOD, likely due to the monsoon system. During the wet season (December to March), high-intensity and widespread rainfall effectively cleanses the atmosphere of aerosols, leading to no significant effect on AOD (p-value > 0.05). In contrast, during the dry season, rainfall significantly influences AOD spatial patterns (p-value < 0.05). These results highlight the intricate interplay between meteorological factors and aerosol’s behavior, emphasizing the seasonal variability in their interactions.

The study employed a survey method using questionnaires, gathering responses from 160 individuals who had previously visited Adiksi Coffee. The data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to assess the relationships among service quality, customer satisfaction, and revisit intention. The analysis utilized the SERVQUAL dimensions for measuring service quality, alongside performance, expenses and overall expectation dimensions for customer satisfaction, and the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) dimensions for revisit intention. The findings revealed that service quality significantly and positively influences customer satisfaction; service quality also directly and positively impacts revisit intention. Additionally, customer satisfaction was found to have a significant positive effect on revisit intention and served as a mediator in the relationship between service quality and revisit intention. This study highlights the critical role of service quality in shaping customer satisfaction and revisit intention within the coffee shop sector, particularly at Adiksi Coffee. These insights offer valuable practical implications for coffee shop operators aiming to enhance customer satisfaction and encourage repeat visits by focusing on service quality improvements.
