Background: Implementation science has advanced towards improved use of theoretical tactics to provide better understanding and explanation of how and why implementation succeeds or fails. The aim of the study is to develop a deterministic framework for the successful measurement of healthcare service quality in public healthcare organisations, focusing on the staff member’s satisfaction level with 2009 - 2013 strategic decisions implementation in the three Namibian Public healthcares. Methods: The research utilized quantitative approach, a survey design and questionnaire was employed to collect data. The study used Gaskin’s CFA/SEM procedure  and applies the SPSS 23 AMOS plugins, Pattern Matrix Model Builder”(PMMB), “Master Validity”(MV), “Model fit measures”(MFM) to validate and determine the interrelationships between variables. A quantitative interpretive structural modelling (ISM) approach was used within an action implementation framework (AIF). This study employed three models that complied with the action implementation framework’s dual roles. The EIS model provided the hands on support to implementing strategy role by retrospectively focusing on the 2009-2013 MoHSS Strategic plan implementations. While, the ISF model and IFF models were used to identify the determinants for its evaluation. Results: The study found no direct link between PHOs and the public sector institutions in implementing strategic plans. However, there is 1:2 mediation effect facilitated by the MoHSS and the PHOs are responsible for implementing 33% of the mandates of the Ministry of Health and Social Services in Namibia. Conclusions: This study had demonstrated why strategic plans failed in the public sectors in Namibia in that the objectives in the plans were formulated without determining whether they had an effect or not on the implementation outcome.

The Weibo social media platform in China has an important role in the value-generation process between a company and a customer. We investigated the relationship between the service quality provided on a company's Weibo page and the two dimensions of customer value cocreation behavior, namely, participation and citizenship, as well as the moderating effect of collectivism on this relationship. Participants were 354 active users of Weibo. Our findings confirmed that the service quality provided on a company's Weibo page was critical to the generation of customer value cocreation behavior. Further, collectivism moderated this relationship, with higher levels of collectivism strengthening the Weibo page service quality and customer value cocreation behavior relationship. In addition, customer citizenship behavior was positively related to customer perceptions of brand image, whereas customer participation was not. Implications for companies in the Chinese context are discussed.

Social media application (SMA) shows several important functions that causing theincrement of usage among mobile application or mobile app users, especially among18 to 28 years-old users. This causing several developers to create their own SMA thathave been targeted to mobile app users. However, only several SMA managed tobecome popular and successful in term of usage, leaving other unpopular SMA in thelower rank of the Google PlayStore. SMA created by developer in Malaysia face thesame situation as mentioned before where those SMA were supposed to attractMalaysian mobile users more. To assess this situation, this study aims to identify thesuccess factors of SMA usage and develop a set of metric based on the success factorsusing research model that have been developed in the past. Information SystemSuccess Model (ISSM) were studied and chosen as the reference model for this studybecause the model is suitable and have been used by other researchers in studiesregarding social media and SMA. ISSM contains several success factors like systemquality, service quality and information quality that affect the user satisfaction and useof a system, where this model were modified in this study with the addition ofnetworking quality and perceive privacy factors. This study were conducted on 380Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM) students and after analysing the data collected, allproposed success factors except of service quality were found to have a positive impacttowards user satisfaction and usage. The success factors were included in the metricdesign and the metric were presented in an evaluation form for SMA developer inMalaysia to evaluate and applied the metric in their SMA.
