Abstract

Purpose of the study: The purpose of this study was to determine the perception of Biology Education students towards the implementation of Animal Physiology practicum in the Biology Education Laboratory and to determine the factors that influence student perceptions towards the implementation of the practicum. This study aims to provide insight into improving the quality of practicum learning in higher education. Methodology: This type of research is descriptive with qualitative and quantitative approaches. The subjects of the study were fourth semester Biology Education students of UIN Alauddin Makassar. Data collection techniques used a Likert scale questionnaire 1–5 and documentation. Data analysis techniques include descriptive qualitative analysis for narrative data and quantitative analysis for questionnaire data in a descriptive-qualitative manner. Main Findings: The main findings of this study show that students perceive teaching assistants as supportive in guiding practicum groups, though there are issues with punctuality. Facilities and infrastructure, including laboratory cleanliness and equipment, are generally adequate but require improvement. Students report better understanding of animal physiology post-practicum, and active participation during the exercises. However, some students were not diligent with preliminary tasks, and there were discrepancies in the provision of assignments and material explanations. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study offers a unique perspective by integrating the roles of teaching assistants and laboratory assistants in shaping student perceptions of animal physiology practicums. It highlights the importance of punctuality, material explanations, and active involvement, providing practical insights for improving laboratory-based learning.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: The present investigation was conducted to construct an empirical model explaining how patients intention to return is shaped by multiple dimensions of perceived service quality. Methodology: This research applied a quantitative method using a cross-sectional design to explore the associations among the studied variables at one specific point in time. A total of 75 outpatient respondents participated in the study. Data were gathered through a structured questionnaire consisting of closed questions measured likert scale. Collected responses were processed and analyzed using partial least squares–structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) with assistance of SmartPLS version 4 to assess the suitability of the measurement model and to examine magnitude relationships among constructs. Main Findings: The analysis confirmed that every construct satisfied the established criteria for reliability and validity. Composite reliability values were all above 0.70, while.average variance extracted.(AVE) for each variable exceeded 0.50, indicating adequate convergent validity. Within the structural model, the independent variables jointly accounted for 68.4% of the variance in patients’ intention to revisit healthcare services (R² = 0.684), demonstrating substantial explanatory capacity. Each hypothesized path showed a positive direction and achieved statistical significance (p < 0.05). Of all examined determinants, service interaction quality emerged as the strongest predictor of revisit intention. Novelty/Originality of this study: The originality research lies in its theoretical contribution, as it broadens the application of the DeLone. and McLean information systems success model by adapting and contextualizing it within a healthcare service setting to better understand patient behavioral intentions.
