“…This is particularly important since the current increase in theft is motivated by rising unemployment and unstable economic conditions following the Covid-19 Pandemic. 64 The outcome of the mediation, which brings together the two parties, will determine whether to continue with the case in court or stop it based on the agreement reached. 65 Hence, there is a need for a hybrid restorative justice concept that recognizes that not all cases resolved using it end in peace agreements.…”

The existence of restorative justice certainly brings a new paradigm in the settlement of criminal cases by seeking to resolve cases solely outside of court. The implementation of restorative justice-based prosecution termination can be applied to theft, which has the highest number of cases in Indonesia. This is because the Covid-19 pandemic created a moral crisis that led to a drastic increase in theft crimes in Indonesia, disrupting economic stability. Recently, restorative justice houses have been established in each jurisdiction of the prosecutor's office to optimize the resolution of legal problems by filtering cases that go to court, disseminating law to local residents, and involving local traditional leaders to develop local wisdom and emphasize consensus deliberation. The research approach used a normative juridical method, referencing laws and regulations sourced from primary data and literature studies on criminal law in Indonesia, which were then processed to draw specific conclusions. The study's results show that humanist restorative justice houses are an alternative for solving theft cases. The embodiment of restorative justice in a hybrid way within the prosecutor's office will establish it as a humane law enforcement agency in Lampung province.

Despite measures for physicians’ excellence in diagnosis, the need for improvement of medical history techniques has been pointed out as one of the critical elements for improving diagnosis. Specific and proactive frameworks related to methods of effective history acquisition are needed to minimise bias and optimise decision-making. Therefore, this paper uses Linear Sequential Unmasking- Expanded to develop and propose a structured medical history acquisition strategy. The strength of this lies in its reliance on cognitive psychological processes. Breaking information gatherings and decisions into smaller tasks and ordering them correctly reduces cognitive load as well as minimises noise and bias cascade. Additionally, this approach can help physicians develop diagnostic expertise regardless of specialty.
