Collaborative digital transformation : youth in IndonesiaMaulana, Rio Yusri (Avtor) Dečman, Mitja (Avtor) arts and humanitiesapplied sciencessocial sciencesyouthresearch methodology social sciencessocial changeThis study focuses on the development and evaluation of an instrument to measure the perception of collaborative digital transformation (CDT) among young citizens in West Java, Indonesia. As digital transformation (DT) drives the digital society, the government plays an important role in guiding this change and emphasizing inclusive policymaking. Youth are key to this process because of their digital adaptability. This study combines the principles of collaborative governance (CG) with digital transformation and analyzes survey data from a sample of 717 young people. Exploratory factor analysis revealed three different factors: DT priorities, DT success factors, and CG success parameters. Structural equation modeling yielded a strong and correlated three-factorial CDT model that passed several goodness-of-fit tests, including the Root Mean Square Error of Approximation test (RMSEA = 0.62) and the Comparative Fit Index (CFI = 0.963). The results emphasize the importance of inclusive digital initiatives and the important role of youth in promoting a digitally inclusive society.20252025-09-30 10:59:56Neznano174253UDK: 3:303.1:316.42-053.81DOI: 10.17632/gcsxh38kf2.1COBISS_ID: 251044355slIndonezija
