However, the adoption of this service still faces various challenges, especially those related to user perception. This study aims to analyze the influence of perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and perceived risk on the interest of Batam City residents in using internet banking services. This research employs a quantitative method by collecting data through questionnaires distributed to potential internet banking users in Batam City. The obtained data is analyzed using multiple linear regression methods. The results indicate that perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use have a positive and significant effect on the intention to use internet banking, while perceived risk has a negative and significant effect. These findings suggest that increasing awareness of the benefits and ease of use of internet banking can encourage its adoption, while concerns about risks should be minimized by banks to enhance user trust.</em></p> <p><strong><em>Keywords</em>: </strong><em>Perceived Usefulness, Perceived Ease of Use, Perceived Risk, Intention to Use Internet Banking.</em></p> 2025-05-02T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 SCIENTIA JOURNAL : Jurnal Ilmiah Mahasiswa https://ejournal.upbatam.ac.id/index.php/scientia_journal/article/view/9815 PENGARUH E-WOM, KEPERCAYAAN, KEMUDAHAN PENGGUNAAN TERHADAP KEPUTUSAN PEMBELIAN PADA BUKALAPAK DI KOTA BATAM 2025-02-04T10:57:22+00:00 Walina Yenita Br Siahaan pb210910083@upbatam.ac.id Hikmah Hikmah hikmah@puterabatam.ac.id <p><em>In the increasingly advanced digital era, the development of information and communication technology has changed the way consumers make decisions to buy products.

The main issue discussed is how the implementation of legal protection of the rights of suspects in Indonesia, including the obstacles faced in practice. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the extent to which existing regulations, such as KUHAP, Law No. 39/1999 on Human Rights, and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), can protect the rights of suspects, as well as to identify obstacles in their implementation. This research uses normative legal methods with legislative, conceptual, and analytical approaches. The results show that although existing regulations have provided a strong legal foundation, violations such as torture, discrimination, and lack of access to legal aid still occur frequently. In addition, weak oversight and limited resources exacerbate the protection of suspects' rights. Therefore, reforms are needed in the aspects of legal implementation, strengthening supervision, and expanding access to legal aid to realize a fair investigation that respects human rights.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> 2025-05-02T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 SCIENTIA JOURNAL : Jurnal Ilmiah Mahasiswa https://ejournal.upbatam.ac.id/index.php/scientia_journal/article/view/9643 FAKTOR-FAKTOR YANG MEMPENGARUHI MINAT MAHASISWA AKUNTANSI DALAM PENGAMBILAN CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT 2025-01-25T17:04:30+00:00 Wennita Wennita pb210810009@upbatam.ac.id Ronald Wangdra ronald@puterabatam.ac.id <p><em>The Certified Public Accountant (CPA) certification is a crucial step for accounting students to enhance their credibility and career prospects in the accounting field.
