Abstract

This study examines the influence of Employee Income Allowance (TPP) on the loyalty of Civil Servants (PNS), with Job Satisfaction as an intervening variable in the North Tapanuli Regency Agriculture Office. The study used the Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) approach with the help of SmartPLS 3.0 software and involved 117 civil servant respondents to analyze the measurement model and structural model. The results of the outer model analysis showed that all indicators of TPP, Job Satisfaction, and Civil Servant Loyalty had an outer loading value above 0.70, with Cronbach's Alpha values ranging from 0.865 to 0.916, Composite Reliability between 0.902 to 0.937, and Average Variance Extracted (AVE) between 0.649 to 0.749, indicating convergent validity and adequate reliability. The discriminant validity test also shows that each indicator has the highest correlation with its own construct. Structural model evaluation showed that TPP had a positive and significant effect on Job Satisfaction (β = 0.895; T = 50.010; p < 0.001) and directly had a positive effect on civil servant loyalty (β = 0.576; T = 4,713; p < 0.001). In addition, Job Satisfaction has a positive effect on Civil Servant Loyalty (β = 0.364; T = 3.055; p = 0.003). Indirect influence analysis showed that TPP also significantly affected civil servant loyalty through job satisfaction (β = 0.326; T = 2,967; p = 0.004), which confirms that Job Satisfaction plays a role as a partial intervening variable. The R² value of 0.801 for Job Satisfaction and 0.840 for Civil Servant Loyalty indicates a strong explanatory ability of the model.

Abstract

The development of information technology in the past five years has significantly impacted the way schools communicate and attract prospective students, with social media, websites, and digital platforms becoming the primary sources of information for parents and students. This study aims to analyze the influence of digital promotion and school image on school choice decisions through interest as a mediating variable at SMK Negeri 2 Pematang Siantar. Digital promotion, which involves a series of marketing activities utilizing digital media, can build closer relationships with audiences and influence school choice decisions. School image, formed through the experiences, information, and achievements displayed, plays a significant role in shaping prospective students' perceptions of the quality of education offered. This study used a quantitative method with Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) analysis to test the direct and indirect effects between the variables studied. The results showed that digital promotion had a positive and significant effect on student choice decisions and interest. School image also had a positive effect on interest, although it was not significant on the decision to choose directly. Student interest proved to be a significant mediating variable between digital promotion, school image, and choice decisions. These findings provide important contributions to school communication strategies, particularly in enhancing digital promotion and strengthening the school's image to attract new prospective students.

Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using the Partial Least Squares (PLS) method with the help of the SmartPLS application. The results showed that teacher competence and work ethic had a positive and significant effect on teacher performance. Teacher competence and work ethic also had a positive and significant effect on work motivation. Furthermore, work motivation has a positive and significant effect on teacher performance and is proven to act as a mediating variable in the relationship between teacher competence and work ethic on teacher performance. The coefficient of determination shows that teacher competence and work ethic can explain 42.3% of the variation in work motivation, while teacher competence, work ethic, and work motivation simultaneously explain 62.0% of the variation in teacher performance.

The results showed that transformational leadership and competence had a positive and significant effect on employee performance. In addition, transformational leadership and competence also had a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction. Job satisfaction was proven to have a positive and significant effect on employee performance. The results of the indirect effect test showed that job satisfaction was able to significantly mediate the effect of transformational leadership and competence on employee performance. The coefficient of determination value showed that transformational leadership, competence, and job satisfaction were able to explain 64.5% of the variation in employee performance. The findings of this study indicate that improving employee performance at the Animal Clinic Technical Implementation Unit of the North Sumatra Provincial Government's Plantation and Livestock Service can be achieved by strengthening transformational leadership, improving employee competency, and creating sustainable job satisfaction.
