Extant studies demonstrate the vital roles of ethnicity group and culture influencing individual intention and decision to become an entrepreneur. Meanwhile, in the entrepreneurial decision, each ethnic group has different preferences regarding where to run it, at the origin or overseas. This study examines the roles of group ethnicity and culture in affecting the likelihood of an individual’s choosing entrepreneurship as their occupation using the combined data of the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) and the Population Census Report. Our findings substantiate that group ethnicity and culture significantly influence the likelihood of entrepreneurial decisions. Furthermore, using Javanese as a reference, we found the Balinese, Batak, Chinese, South Sumatran, and Minangkabau tend towards entrepreneurship. The difference is that the Balinese, Batak, Chinese, and South Sumatran tend to run their business around where they live, while the Minangkabau are overseas.

Despite the growing studies of Baitul Maal wa Tamwil (BMT) in Indonesia, few have empirically analyzed how BMT increases household welfare, primarily through credit for productive activities. This study aimed to analyze the impact of BMT availability in the community on household welfare. Considering that credit is targeted for productive activities, the researchers limited the respondents to farmer households and households with non-farming business activities, amounting to 4642 and 2250, respectively. Utilizing longitudinal data from the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS), the analysis was conducted employing the difference-in-difference (DiD) method. The results showed that BMT's existence in the community improved farmer households' mean welfare by 1.65%. After controlling for household and community characteristics, consistent results were obtained with a small decrease in the coefficient of 1.58%. Meanwhile, households with non-farming business activities were not affected by the existence of BMT in their community. Nevertheless, a positive coefficient of diff-in-diff indicated that BMT and welfare had a positive relationship even though it was not strong enough to be a contributor to the outcome.

Abstract Background Impaired growth in children can starts during pregnancy and continue to a few years after birth. Age of 0-2 year is considered as the critical window of growth after birth. This study aimed to investigate the influence of early growth towards growth in the pre-pubertal period. Methods The study was utilizing the Indonesian Family Life Survey panel data of 1993, 1997, and 2000, covered 13 out of 27 provinces. The sample was children aged 0-2 years (year 1993), 4-6 years (1997) and 7-9 years old (2000).The data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 13.0. Results About 77% of children who were stunting at 0-2 years and continued at age 4-6 years, remained stunting at ages 7-9 years; 59.5% who were stunting at 4-6 years, remained stunting at age 7-9 years; 10% who were normal at ages 0-2 and 4-6 years become stunting at age 7-9 years, and 16% among those who were stunting at age 0-2 year become normal at age 4-6 years. Multivariate analysis showed that children who were stunting at age 0-2 years and continued until age 4-6 years have 27 times risk of becoming stunting at age 7-9 and those who were stunting at age 4-6 years have 14 times risk. On the other hand, those who were stunting at age 0-2 years but became normal at age 4-6 years, were not related to the risk of becoming stunting at later age. Conclusion Stunted at age 7-9 years is appointed by shortness at the previous period especially when it began at age of 0-2 years and extended into age of 4-6 years. Particular concern has to be carefully interpreted for the evidence of regaining height of stunted children at 0-2 years into normal height at 4-6 years.

The concluding chapter summarizes all the conceptual questions raised while analysing the topic of religious conversion in nineteenth-century Maharashtra. Using personal experience, the author explores whether Marathi Brahmin Christians could be considered an ethnic group in the early colonial period. Using arguments from the preface of this book, the author discusses how social stigma created family life and family associations among early Christian converts who converted and intermarried within and across colonial missions to form a separate social group that was outside both Marathi and Brahmin identity, and colonial identity. While this intellectual burgeoning group of Brahmin Christians did not survive after independence, their vernacular expressions of Christian piety constituted important notions about religious modernity in the colonial period. Finally, the author discusses how conversion became a mode of communication within Christian families that becomes inherent expressions of articulating dissent.

Using the Indonesian Family Life Survey, this paper elucidates the factors related to happiness in Indonesia. Some factors yield results consistent with those in the literature, but other factors such as unemployment and the female gender turn out not to be robust. Some attempts are made to purge endogeneity for past income mobility, social trust, and political environment. Also, measures with a more immediate impact on happiness are exploited for social trust and political environment. The sign of the coefficient on past income mobility is reversed once the variable has been purged of endogeneity. In addition, social trust and political environment are found to have little relationship with happiness.

Perkembangan urbanisasi dan ekonomi pada negara berkembang menyebabkan terjadinya nutrition transition. Hal ini mengakibatkan munculnya fenomena beban gizi ganda pada keluarga dimana terdapat anggota rumah tangga yang memiliki status gizi kurang dan lebih tinggal dalam satu keluarga. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui prevalensi dan faktor-faktor yang berhubungan dengan fenomena beban gizi ganda pada keluarga di Indonesia. Penelitian cross-sectional ini menggunakan data Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) tahun 2014 dengan jumlah sampel sebesar 6468 keluarga. Indikator beban gizi ganda keluarga ditunjukkan dengan adanya status gizi lebih dan kurang tinggal dalam satu keluarga yang diwakili oleh ibu dan anak. Analisis statistik dengan metode chi-square digunakan untuk menguji variabel yang memiliki hubungan dengan terjadinya beban gizi ganda keluarga. Hasil menunjukkan prevalensi beban gizi ganda keluarga di Indonesia adalah 8,27% dan persentase tertinggi terdapat pada regional Kalimantan dan Indonesia Timur. Faktor-faktor yang berhubungan dengan kejadian beban gizi ganda secara signififikan (p<0,05) pada keluarga di Indonesia adalah usia ibu (p = 0,001), pendidikan ibu (p = 0,022), jumlah anak (p = 0,001) dan jumlah anggota rumah tangga (p = 0,001). Penelitian lanjutan dengan metode longitudinal diperlukan untuk mengetahui prediktor beban gizi ganda pada keluarga di Indonesia sehingga dapat dirumuskan intervensi yang tepat untuk pencegahan masalah tersebut.
