Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of school policies, resource allocation, and managerial support on teacher satisfaction. Using a quantitative approach, the study employed a survey method and applied Structural Equation Modeling with Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) using SmartPLS 4 software. A census sampling technique was used, in which all 63 teachers at SMAN 3 Rembang were included as respondents, representing the entire population. The results show that: (1) school policies have a positive and significant influence on teacher satisfaction; (2) resource allocation has a positive and significant influence on teacher satisfaction; (3) managerial support has a positive and significant influence on teacher satisfaction; and (4) school policies, resource allocation, and managerial support simultaneously have a positive and significant influence on teacher satisfaction. These findings suggest that well-managed schools, in terms of structure and administration, can enhance teachers’ satisfaction, enthusiasm, and commitment to both their institution and their profession.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the limitations of satisfaction-based loyalty models by investigating the fundamental role of trust in shaping customer loyalty within B2B service markets. Specifically, it assesses whether service quality and price perception remain effective drivers of customer loyalty in long-term, high-value business relationships. A quantitative research design was employed, with data collected from 66 strategic B2B customers and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results reveal that trust is the only variable with a direct and significant effect on customer loyalty, while service quality and price perception do not exhibit significant direct influences. Although price perception significantly affects customer satisfaction, satisfaction does not mediate the relationships between service quality, price perception, trust, and customer loyalty. These findings indicate that customer satisfaction functions primarily as an evaluative outcome rather than a mechanism that converts service performance into sustained loyalty. This study contributes theoretically by repositioning trust as the central relational governance mechanism underlying B2B customer loyalty and reconceptualizing satisfaction as a non-mediating construct. Managerially, the findings suggest that firms serving strategic B2B customers should prioritize trust-building, relational governance, and long-term relationship stability over short-term service or pricing optimization.

Abstract

The increasing competition among private educational institutions has heightened the need for effective educational management strategies to understand factors influencing parents’ school choice decisions. This study aims to analyze the influence of school image, educational service quality, and parental trust on parents’ decisions to choose Northern Green School Medan. The study is motivated by a noticeable decline in student enrollment in recent years, which reflects weakening parental preference amid intensified competition among private schools. Employing a quantitative research design, data were collected through a survey administered to parents of enrolled students and analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results indicate that school image and educational service quality have a positive and significant effect on parents’ school choice decisions. Furthermore, parental trust emerges as the most dominant factor influencing parents’ decisions among the examined variables. The structural model demonstrates strong explanatory power, with an R² value of 0.843, indicating that 84.3% of the variance in parents’ school choice decisions is explained by the proposed model. These findings imply that private schools need to prioritize trust-based management practices, consistently improve the quality of educational services, and strengthen institutional image to enhance parental confidence and sustain student enrollment in a competitive educational environment.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of pedagogical competence, professional competence, and teacher attitudes on the effectiveness of National Plus Curriculum implementation. A quantitative explanatory approach was employed, with data collected through a census survey involving teachers. The data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to examine both partial and simultaneous relationships among variables. The results show that pedagogical competence, professional competence, and teacher attitudes each have a positive and statistically significant effect on the effectiveness of curriculum implementation. Simultaneously, these variables demonstrate a strong combined influence on implementation effectiveness. Among the three factors, teacher attitude exhibits the largest effect size, indicating that motivation, commitment, and openness to curriculum change play a dominant role in supporting effective implementation. These findings imply that successful implementation of the National Plus Curriculum depends not only on teachers’ instructional skills and professional expertise but also on the development of positive attitudes toward curriculum change. Therefore, professional development programs should integrate competence enhancement with strategies aimed at strengthening teachers’ motivation and readiness for curricular innovation.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of curriculum, facilities, location, and brand image on parents’ decisions to enroll their children at an integrated early childhood and primary education institution. Employing a quantitative approach with a survey design, data were collected from 55 parents of students in the 2025/2026 academic year selected from a population of 77 respondents. The data were obtained using a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed through Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) to examine the relationships among variables. The results reveal that curriculum has a positive and significant effect on parents’ school choice decisions, indicating that curriculum relevance, quality, and future orientation play a crucial role in shaping parental preferences. In contrast, school facilities and location do not show a significant influence, suggesting that these factors are perceived as basic requirements rather than key differentiators in the school selection process. Furthermore, brand image has a positive and significant effect and emerges as the most dominant factor influencing parents’ decisions, as a strong school image fosters trust, reflects perceived educational quality, and enhances parental confidence. These findings imply that for newly established schools, the development of a strong and relevant curriculum supported by effective brand image management is essential to influence parents’ enrollment decisions, while facilities and location function primarily as supporting factors rather than main determinants.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the influence of Educational Service Quality on Parents’ Word of Mouth (WOM) Intention through Parental Satisfaction in Early Childhood Education. Educational service quality is conceptualized as a second-order construct formed by the five SERVQUAL dimensions: Tangibles, Reliability, Responsiveness, Assurance, and Empathy. A quantitative explanatory design was employed using a survey method involving parents of children enrolled in a private early childhood education institution in Surabaya, Indonesia. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The results reveal that Educational Service Quality has a strong positive effect on Parental Satisfaction, which in turn significantly influences Parents’ WOM Intention. Mediation analysis confirms that Parental Satisfaction serves as a significant intervening variable in transmitting the effect of service quality on WOM intention. At the dimensional level, Reliability and Responsiveness emerge as the strongest contributors to perceived service quality. These findings imply that early childhood education institutions should prioritize satisfaction-oriented service management by strengthening reliable administrative systems and responsive communication practices to enhance parental advocacy, institutional legitimacy, and sustainable competitiveness.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of the work environment, communication between staff, and motivation on the performance of management staff at Hotel Aayan, Bali. The study used a quantitative approach with path analysis techniques processed using SmartPLS software version 4.0. The sample in this study was all 40 management staff, spread across five operational villa units of Hotel Aayan. The results of the analysis showed that communication between staff had a positive and significant effect on employee performance with a p-value of 0.040. In contrast, the work environment and motivation variables did not have a significant effect on staff performance because they had p-values ​​of 0.087 and 0.296, respectively. These findings indicate that effective internal communication is a key factor in improving the performance of management staff, while the work environment and motivation have not been statistically proven as the main determinants in the context of this study. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of strategies to strengthen communication between staff in human resource management in the hospitality sector.
