Abstract

Job satisfaction is a critical factor in sustaining employee well-being and organizational effectiveness in the banking sector, where Account Officers (AOs) face demanding targets and heavy workloads. This study examines the effects of emotional support and work motivation on job satisfaction, both directly and indirectly through Quality of Work Life (QWL). A quantitative explanatory approach with a cross-sectional design was employed. Data were collected through online questionnaires from 82 AOs working in 17 banking institutions. The data were analyzed using partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS. The results indicate that emotional support and work motivation positively affect job satisfaction and QWL, while QWL also positively affects job satisfaction. All seven hypotheses were supported. QWL partially mediates the relationships between emotional support and job satisfaction and between work motivation and job satisfaction. The model explains 78.6% of the variance in job satisfaction and 52.4% in QWL. These findings contribute to the literature by integrating emotional support, work motivation, and QWL into a single explanatory model. Practically, banking institutions should strengthen empathetic supervision, employee motivation, competency development, and working conditions to improve job satisfaction.

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the "Senam Gokil" program incorporating a positive reinforcement strategy on improving the psychological well-being of elderly individuals with knee pain (osteoarthritis) in the Tlogosari area. A quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group model was employed. The sample consisted of 60 elderly participants meeting the inclusion criteria, divided into an experimental group that participated in the "Senam Gokil" program for four weeks and a control group that did not receive the intervention. A standardized psychological well-being scale served as the research instrument. Data analysis was conducted using paired t-tests and independent t-tests. The results showed a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant improvement in psychological well-being in the experimental group compared to the control group. The positive reinforcement provided during the exercise sessions contributed to enhanced feelings of self-worth, optimism, and social connectedness among the elderly participants. These findings indicate that "Senam Gokil" is an effective, simple, and practical intervention for improving the psychological well-being of the elderly, particularly those with physical limitations such as knee pain.
