Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to determine the effect of service quality and atmosphere on the intention to revisit Klewer Market in Surakarta City amidst digital competition with the ease of online fahion purchases that have changed consumer behavior and decreased visits to physical markets. Methodology: This study used quantitative methods with 100 respondents who had visited in the last six months. Data collection techniques were conducted through surveys, while data analysis techniques used descriptive or inferential statistical analysis. All data were processed using SPSS version 25 software to ensure the accuracy of the test results. Main Findings: The results show that service quality and atmosphere have a significant partial and simultaneous effect on the intention to revisit. As a social space, traditional markets facilitate community interaction activities. Service quality and atmosphere that support these activities are crucial for the sustainability of this social institution. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study offers a new perspective by repositioning traditional markets not only as economic entities, but also as dynamic social spaces. Its novelty lies in the integration of service quality and atmosphere as stimulants for community social activities, which are key to the sustainability of social institutions amid modernisation.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: The study explores how public secondary teachers teach and advocate green skills to students, highlighting the need to promote sustainable living and economies in the future. Methodology: Using the descriptive-survey design of quantitative research, eighty-six (86) teachers in public secondary schools in a province in the Philippines are surveyed using a questionnaire with a validity index of 0.98 (excellent) and a reliability index of 0.962 (excellent). The gathered data are then analyzed using mean, standard deviation, and t-test. Main Findings: Public secondary school teachers emphasize immersive, participatory, and interdisciplinary learning when teaching green skills in their classroom practices, underscoring their importance as integral soci-environmental competencies. However, they still need to provide holistic, comprehensive support for developing these skills outside the classroom. To ensure a more thorough approach to fostering green skills in students, the curriculum can be enhanced to include sustainable development and environmental literacy, and teachers can get professional development to improve their ability to work with organizations and institutions. The study reveals a discrepancy between the actual teaching of green skills and their advocacy, calling for an intensive, sustainable approach to strengthening academic integration and sustainable community practice in green education. Novelty/Originality of this study: The study contributes to the body of knowledge by examining the extent to which teaching and advocating green skills can improve teacher professional development initiatives and partnerships for sustainable development, thereby bridging the gap between theoretical frameworks and practices.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to examine whether facilities and infrastructure, as well as the competence of health workers, influence community satisfaction at Puskesmas Rumah Tiga in Ambon City Methodology: The study uses a quantitative explanatory approach. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 50 patients who received services at Puskesmas Rumah Tiga during the research period. Respondents were selected using accidental sampling, based on their availability at the time of data collection.The questionnaire measured three variables: facilities and infrastructure, health workers’ competence, and community satisfaction. All items were assessed using a five-point Likert scale. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS to determine both partial and simultaneous effects of the independent variables on community satisfaction. Main Findings: These findings make an important contribution to social science by demonstrating how the quality of physical resources and the competence of health workers shape community perceptions of public services. From a social and policy perspective, the results underscore the need for simultaneous investment in infrastructure and human resource development to enhance health service performance, strengthen public governance, and promote inclusive social development through responsive and citizen-oriented service delivery Novelty/Originality of This Study: This study provides empirical evidence from a primary healthcare center in Ambon City, Maluku Province. Research examining similar variables has mostly been conducted in western Indonesia, particularly in Java and Sumatra. Studies focusing on eastern Indonesian urban contexts remain relatively limited.The findings highlight the importance of improving both service facilities and staff competence to enhance community satisfaction. For local health administrators and policymakers, the results suggest that efforts to strengthen infrastructure should be accompanied by continuous improvement of professional competence among health workers.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to analyze the effect of public service quality in the health sector on community satisfaction as service users at the Lateri Village Community Health Center, Baguala District, Ambon City. From a public administration perspective, healthcare services are positioned as an integral part of public service delivery, which constitutes the government’s responsibility in fulfilling citizens’ basic rights and in promoting responsive and accountable governance. Methodology: A quantitative explanatory design was employed using simple linear regression analysis. Data were collected from 80 service users through a structured questionnaire based on a five-point Likert scale. Service quality indicators were adapted from established healthcare quality frameworks and reinterpreted within a public service governance perspective. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS after validity, reliability, and classical assumption testing. Main Findings: The findings indicate that public healthcare service quality has a positive and significant effect on community satisfaction. Improvements in accessibility, efficiency, humane interaction, and service reliability contribute to more favorable citizen evaluations of public service performance. These results suggest that service quality functions not only as an operational standard but also as a governance mechanism that shapes public trust and institutional legitimacy at the local level. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study provides empirical contributions to the development of public administration by integrating health service quality dimensions into a public service analysis framework. It enriches the social science literature, particularly in the study of public service quality and community satisfaction in primary healthcare services. Furthermore, the study offers practical implications for improving the performance of public sector organizations, especially Community Health Centers (Puskesmas) as public service providers in eastern Indonesia.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to examine the effects of physical and non-physical work environments on employee performance at the Ambon City Environmental and Waste Management Agency and to measure the magnitude of their partial and simultaneous influences on work outcomes. Methodology: This quantitative study employed structured questionnaires as research instruments, a survey method, and multiple linear regression analysis. Data were processed using IBM SPSS Statistics software. Respondents were all employees of the Ambon City Environmental and Waste Management Agency, selected through a census technique, and measured using Likert-scale items. Main Findings: The results show that the physical work environment significantly affects employee performance, while the non-physical work environment also has a positive and significant influence. Simultaneously, both variables strongly predict performance levels. Regression coefficients indicate that non-physical aspects contribute more dominantly, and the model explains a substantial proportion of performance variance among employees in the organization. These findings highlight the importance of improving workplace conditions in public sector institutions to enhance the quality of public service delivery and organizational responsiveness to community needs. Furthermore, a supportive work environment contributes not only to employee productivity but also to broader social welfare by enabling government agencies to perform their public duties more effectively. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study offers new empirical evidence from eastern Indonesia’s municipal environmental sector by integrating physical and non-physical workplace factors with integrity-related organizational issues. It advances existing knowledge by providing context-specific data for public agencies managing sanitation services and by supplying a practical model for targeted workplace improvement policies.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to analyze the effect of service effectiveness on taxpayer satisfaction at the Regional Revenue Agency of Maluku Province, specifically in Motor Vehicle Tax payment services at One-Stop Administration Services Office Waihaong Ambon. The research positions taxpayer satisfaction not only as an administrative performance indicator but also as a reflection of governance quality, institutional legitimacy, and the relational dynamics between government and citizens within a decentralized public administration framework. Methodology: This study employed a quantitative survey approach involving taxpayers who directly accessed Motor Vehicle Tax payment services. Respondents were selected using an incidental sampling technique based on their direct service experience. Data were collected through structured Likert-scale questionnaires measuring service effectiveness (service speed, procedural accuracy, clarity of information, accessibility, and officer professionalism) and taxpayer satisfaction. Instrument validity and reliability tests were conducted prior to analysis. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and simple linear regression with SPSS software, including hypothesis testing (t-test) and coefficient of determination (R²). Main Findings: The findings indicate that service effectiveness has a positive and statistically significant effect on taxpayer satisfaction. The regression results demonstrate that improvements in service speed, procedural clarity, accessibility, and officer professionalism directly increase satisfaction levels. The coefficient of determination shows that service effectiveness explains a substantial proportion of variance in taxpayer satisfaction. These results confirm that effective public service delivery not only enhances citizen satisfaction but also strengthens public trust, perceptions of administrative fairness, and institutional legitimacy in regional tax administration. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study contributes new empirical evidence from an archipelagic regional context in eastern Indonesia by integrating a quantitative service effectiveness model with a social governance perspective. Unlike prior studies that primarily emphasize technical service quality dimensions, this research conceptualizes taxpayer satisfaction as an indicator of institutional trust and governance legitimacy. The study enriches public administration literature by demonstrating how frontline service performance influences broader governance outcomes within decentralized regional tax systems.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to analyze the influence of work discipline and employee performance on the quality of public services at the Department of Environmental Affairs and Waste Management of Ambon City. Public service quality reflects the government’s capacity to fulfill community needs and expectations, particularly in waste management services that directly affect environmental cleanliness, public health, and community satisfaction. Methodology: This research employed a quantitative survey approach involving employees directly engaged in waste management services. Data were collected through structured questionnaires using a five-point Likert scale to measure work discipline, employee performance, and public service quality. Instrument validity and reliability were tested prior to analysis. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and multiple linear regression, supported by classical assumption tests to ensure the reliability of the regression model. Main Findings: The results show that work discipline has a positive and significant effect on public service quality. Employee performance also has a positive and significant effect. Simultaneously, both variables significantly influence service quality with a strong coefficient of determination. Disciplined behavior and optimal performance substantially improve reliability, responsiveness, assurance, empathy, and tangible aspects of public services. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study provides an integrated quantitative analysis of discipline and performance as simultaneous determinants of service quality in the municipal waste management sector, offering empirical evidence to strengthen citizen-oriented local governance.
