Abstract

Voluntourist motivation is an important factor that can influence satisfaction, continue volunteering, and intention to recommend in a non-profit organization in Indonesia. If the volunteer program does not meet expectations or fails to provide the experience expected by voluntourists, it will cause dissatisfaction. This study was conducted to determine the motivations of voluntourists in Indonesia and how they influence satisfaction, continue volunteering, and intention to recommend. This study is basic research with a quantitative approach. Respondent data was collected through Google Forms from a total of 220 people who had experience as volunteers in Indonesia. The data was then processed using the Partial Least Squares (PLS) approach using IBM SPSS 29 and SmartPLS 4 software. The results show that social (β = 0.160, p = 0.020), value (β = 0.280, p = 0.001), and environmental concern (β = 0.280, p = 0.004) are significant in relation to satisfaction, while career (β = 0.062, p = 0.384), enhancement (β = 0.043, p = 0.628), protective (β = 0.072, p = 0.394), and understanding (β = 0.035, p = 0.769) are not significant. Satisfaction is significant in relation to continuing volunteering (β = 0.707, p < 0.001) and intention to recommend (β = 0.696, p < 0.001).

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the factors influencing WOM (word of mouth) among telecommunications network users in Indonesia. This study has eight dimensions of constructive variables: Service Communication, Quality Service, Relational Value, Trust, Satisfaction, eWOM, fWOM, and Positive Emotional Experience. This study was conducted in a single service setting, and therefore, the results cannot be generalized. Data collected to support the initial variables were distributed to telecommunications network users in Indonesia through 286 Google Forms questionnaire respondents. This investigation used SmartPLS 4 due to its robustness in testing predictive models. This research guides telecommunications service managers in developing and managing user-provider relationship networks. Specifically, this paper shows how business references can be generated and used to build customer retention from various relationship-building strategies. The study shows that service providers who deliver quality services, design superior value, and provide reliable information are better positioned to build strong relationships with customers and, ultimately, to foster Positive Emotional Experiences for both users and providers.

Abstract

This study investigates the factors influencing user satisfaction and continuance intention toward mobile payment applications in Cambodia, an emerging leader in ASEAN digitalization. Utilizing the Extended Expectation-Confirmation Model in Information Technology (EECM-IT) as a framework, the research examines the impact of perceived usefulness, ease of use, service quality, credibility, compatibility, subjective norms, and perceived risk on long-term user behavior. Data were collected through a structured survey of 470 active mobile payment users in Cambodia and analyzed using Covariance-Based Structural Equation Modeling (CB-SEM). The results indicate that perceived usefulness, ease of use, service quality, credibility, and subjective norms significantly and positively influence user satisfaction. Notably, perceived usefulness emerged as the strongest predictor of continuance intention. While perceived ease of use was critical for initial satisfaction, its direct influence on continued usage diminished as users became proficient with the technology. User satisfaction was confirmed as a vital mediator, bridging the gap between technological attributes and habitual loyalty. Interestingly, perceived risk and compatibility did not show a significant impact on satisfaction in this specific context. These findings provide critical insights for financial institutions and policymakers aiming to foster a sustainable cashless ecosystem in Cambodia.

The research also investigates how agents gain empowerment through their positions and deliver equivalent service by performing their duties across three service dimensions which includes outcome-based, process-based and interactional dimensions. This research investigates how job satisfaction affects the delivery of services in organizations and agents who experience empowerment tend to view both results and operational methods as being just and equitable. Different levels of interactional fairness because their organizations support them and their relationships with colleagues at work. Job satisfaction is the primary mediator which leads employees to become involved while delivering services that are both uniform and fair to all customers.

Abstract

Few studies have tested whether merit-based recruitment actually changes how well federal agencies in Nigeria deliver services. This study fills that gap. It asks whether merit-based recruitment raises service delivery quality and whether it improves service delivery efficiency in Nigeria's federal civil service. It also asks whether institutional capacity carries those effects, that is, whether it acts as a go-between in both relationships. A cross-sectional survey was used. Questionnaires were administered to 493 civil servants drawn from 18 federal ministries, departments, and agencies (MDAs) in Abuja. Hypotheses were tested using ordinary least squares regression through Hayes' PROCESS macro v4 for SPSS, Model 4, with 5,000 bootstrap resamples. Merit-based recruitment has a significant positive effect on institutional capacity, service delivery quality, and service delivery efficiency. Institutional capacity also has a significant positive effect on both service delivery outcomes. Institutional capacity partially mediates the relationship between merit-based recruitment and each of the two outcomes. The Federal Civil Service Commission (FCSC) and related oversight bodies in Nigeria need to apply merit-based recruitment standards more firmly and invest in building institutional capacity if they want to see real improvements in public service delivery.
