Abstract

This study seeks to examine the function of mindfulness in moderating the connection between happiness perception and perceived fairness regarding revisit intention among visitors at Tangkahan, Langkat. This research employs a quantitative methodology via a survey technique; the study population comprises tourists who have visited Tangkahan, Langkat, within the past year. The research sample comprised 300 respondents recruited through purposive selection, specifically targeting travelers with expertise in staying or engaging in tourism activities at the destination. The study's findings demonstrate that the perception of happiness significantly influences the intention to revisit and mindfulness. Moreover, perceived justice exerts a substantial direct influence on revisit intention, however not on mindfulness. Mindfulness does not directly influence revisit intention; instead, it serves as a substantial mediating variable in the association between happiness perception and revisit intention, as well as between perceived justice and revisit intention. These findings affirm that while the experience of happiness and perceived justice directly influence tourists' inclination to return, mindfulness has a significant mediating effect. The novelty of this study lies in its exploration of mindfulness as a psychological mechanism that strengthens the link between tourists' happiness, perceived fairness, and revisit intention—an aspect that has been underexplored in tourism research. By integrating mindfulness into the tourism experience, this study provides fresh insights into how psychological well-being can shape sustainable tourism behavior. From a practical perspective, the findings suggest that tourism managers and policymakers should implement mindfulness-oriented programs, such as guided reflection sessions, meditation spots, or immersive nature experiences, to enhance visitor engagement and loyalty. These initiatives can create a more profound and memorable tourism experience, fostering long-term commitments from travelers. Further research could explore the long-term impact of mindfulness on sustainable tourism behavior and the effectiveness of mindfulness-driven interventions in different tourism contexts.

Abstract

This study examines the effects of transformational leadership, the work environment, and motivation on Brand Partner performance, both directly and indirectly through work competence as a mediating variable, among Brand Partners of PT Orindo Alam Ayu (Oriflame) in the Medan area. A quantitative approach with a cross-sectional explanatory survey design was employed. From a population of 250 active Brand Partners, 150 respondents were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with 10,000 bootstrap subsamples. Based on the adjusted R² values, the model explained 33.0% of the variance in work competence and 44.7% of the variance in Brand Partner performance. The results revealed that transformational leadership (β = 0.257; t = 4.369; p < 0.001), the work environment (β = 0.201; t = 3.323; p = 0.001), and motivation (β = 0.342; t = 5.012; p < 0.001) had positive and significant effects on Brand Partner performance. These three predictors also had positive and significant effects on work competence, with coefficients of β = 0.170 (t = 2.407; p = 0.016), β = 0.235 (t = 3.485; p < 0.001), and β = 0.402 (t = 6.111; p < 0.001), respectively. Work competence, in turn, had a positive and significant effect on Brand Partner performance (β = 0.171; t = 2.174; p < 0.001). The mediation analysis further demonstrated that work competence significantly mediated the effects of transformational leadership (β = 0.029; t = 2.448; p < 0.001), the work environment (β = 0.040; t = 2.811; p < 0.001), and motivation (β = 0.069; t = 2.897; p < 0.001) on Brand Partner performance. As both the direct and indirect effects remained positive and significant, work competence exhibited complementary partial mediation across all three relationships. Motivation emerged as the strongest predictor of both work competence and Brand Partner performance, highlighting the importance of strengthening motivation alongside competency development to enhance Brand Partner performance.
