Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate how perceivable usefulness (PU) and user-generated content (UGC) affect purchase intention (PI), as well as how consumer attitude (CA) functions as a mediator between PU and PI. The validity and reliability of the measurement model are tested using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) using SmartPLS 4. The findings demonstrate that CA affects PI, PU affects CA, and UGC affects PI. Furthermore, PI is directly impacted by PU, and the impact of PU on PI is demonstrated to be mediated by CA. However, this study is limited to evaluating the measurement model without analysing causal relationships. Future research is recommended to test structural relationships and to apply this model to different consumer segments and industries. Keywords: User Generated Content; Perceived Usefulness; Consumer Attitude; Purchase Intention

Abstract

Companies are required to compete fiercely to create and maintain consumer desires, because consumers continue to look for new things in the products and services they consume. The purpose of this study was to determine the role of online customer reviews and brand equity on purchasing decisions mediated by purchase intention. This study uses quantitative data analysis methods using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) based on Partial Least Square (PLS) with the help of SmartPLS 3.0 software. Primary data was collected by distributing questionnaires to 160 consumers of the Erigo brand. Online customer reviews were found to have a positive impact on consumer purchase intentions, but did not directly influence purchase decisions. Instead, brand equity emerged as an important factor, which positively influenced purchase intentions and decisions. Furthermore, this study underscores the mediating role of purchase intention in bridging the effects of online customer reviews and brand equity on actual purchase decision behavior.

The construction service industry plays an important role in economic development. Fierce competition requires companies to maintain prices, service quality, and customer satisfaction. PT. Amel Indah Abadi has experienced project fluctuations, so it is necessary to examine the factors that influence the reuse of its services.This study aims to analyze the effect of price perception and service quality on the decision to reuse construction services with customer satisfaction as a mediating variable. The approach used is quantitative with an explanatory research method. The sample consists of 61 customers of PT. Amel Indah Abadi selected using saturated sampling techniques. Data were collected through a five-point Likert scale questionnaire and analyzed using Partial Least Square (PLS) with the help of SmartPLS 3.0. The results showed that price perception had a positive and significant effect on customer satisfaction (path = 0.477; T = 4.050) and service quality also had a significant effect on customer satisfaction (path = 0.491; T = 4.212). In addition, price perception and service quality have a positive effect on the decision to reuse services (path = 0.387; T = 3.631 and path = 0.305; T = 2.931). Customer satisfaction has a significant effect on the decision to reuse services (path = 0.294; T = 2.726) and significantly mediates the relationship between price perception and service quality on the decision to reuse services (path = 0.140; T = 2.153 and path = 0.144; T = 2.209). The study concluded that reasonable prices and quality service increase satisfaction and encourage repeat use of services. Competitive pricing strategies and service improvements are key to building customer loyalty in the construction sector.

Abstract

ABSTRAK Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh promosi dan kualitas layanan terhadap minat berobat ulang dengan pengetahuan layanan sebagai variabel mediasi pada Rumah Sakit Pertamina Balongan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS). Data dikumpulkan melalui kuesioner terhadap 397 responden yang dipilih menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kualitas layanan berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap minat berobat ulang (t sama dengan 7,848, p sama dengan 0,000) dan pengetahuan layanan (t sama dengan 6,435, p sama dengan 0,000). Promosi juga berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap minat berobat ulang (t sama dengan 3,300, p sama dengan 0,001) serta pengetahuan layanan (t sama dengan 4,069, p sama dengan 0,000). Selain itu, pengetahuan layanan terbukti berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap minat berobat ulang (t sama dengan 5,317, p sama dengan 0,000). Hasil pengujian efek tidak langsung menunjukkan bahwa pengetahuan layanan memediasi secara signifikan hubungan antara kualitas layanan dan minat berobat ulang (t sama dengan 3,938, p sama dengan 0,000), serta antara promosi dan minat berobat ulang (t sama dengan 3,046, p sama dengan 0,002), sehingga pengetahuan layanan berperan sebagai variabel mediasi parsial. Temuan ini mengindikasikan bahwa peningkatan minat berobat ulang tidak hanya dipengaruhi oleh promosi dan kualitas layanan secara langsung, tetapi juga melalui peningkatan pemahaman pasien terhadap layanan rumah sakit. Oleh karena itu, rumah sakit perlu mengintegrasikan strategi promosi yang bersifat edukatif dengan peningkatan kualitas layanan untuk membangun loyalitas pasien secara berkelanjutan. Kata kunci: promosi; kualitas layanan, pengetahuan layanan, minat berobat ulang, SEM-PLS
