Abstract

General Background: Literature-based character education is essential for strengthening students’ cultural awareness and national identity. Specific Background: Despite its potential, the use of culture-based short stories in Indonesian language learning is often not optimally aligned with students’ sociocultural contexts. Knowledge Gap: Few studies have examined how locally rooted short stories function as contextual tools for cultivating patriotism within madrasah-level education. Aims: This study analyzes the use of two cultural short stories—“Yogyakarta” and “Mencintai Budaya Sendiri”—to reinforce patriotic character values among students at MTs Darul Falah Sumbergempol. Results: The findings show that “Yogyakarta” fosters religiosity, curiosity, perseverance, and appreciation for national heritage, while “Mencintai Budaya Sendiri” strengthens cultural pride, tolerance, responsibility, and identity preservation. Integrating both texts increased students’ reading interest, cultural awareness, and patriotic attitudes. Novelty: This research demonstrates that local literary works serve not only as aesthetic reading materials but also as effective instruments of cultural resistance amid globalization by embedding contextual, relatable values. Implications: Schools are encouraged to adopt local culture–based literature to enhance character education, support literacy improvement, and reinforce national identity among the younger generation. Highlights: Use of local culture–based short stories to strengthen students’ patriotic character Integration of “Yogyakarta” and “Mencintai Budaya Sendiri” increases reading interest and cultural awareness. Shows that local literature can act as an effective, contextual medium for character education in the digital/global era.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of service quality, facilities, and employee performance on customer satisfaction at Rafania Fit Club. The research is motivated by the intensifying competition within the fitness service industry, which compels companies to provide excellent service to enhance customer satisfaction. Customer satisfaction is a crucial factor for business sustainability, as it relates to customer loyalty and the inclination of customers to continue using the services offered. This study employs a quantitative approach, utilizing primary data collected through questionnaires distributed to 60 customers of Rafania Fit Club. A purposive sampling technique was used, with criteria including customers who have utilized the services for either less than or more than two months. Data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression with the aid of SPSS version 22, encompassing validity tests, reliability tests, classical assumption tests, t-tests, F-tests, and the coefficient of determination (R²). The results indicate that service quality, facilities, and employee performance have a positive and significant impact on customer satisfaction, both individually and simultaneously. Service quality emerged as the most dominant variable. The coefficient of determination (R²) value of 0.798 indicates that 79.8% of the variance in customer satisfaction can be explained by these three variables. In conclusion, customer satisfaction at Rafania Fit Club is influenced by service quality, facilities, and employee performance.
