Service quality is vital to the success of  any service organization. The rapid growth of the Malaysian hotel industry in the 2000’s forced hotel operators to seriously recognize the importance of service improvement in order to gain competitive advantage. This study aims to examine the impact of service quality on customer satisfaction, and how customer satisfaction subsequently affects customer loyalty in the hotel industry in Malaysia. This study also investigates the mediating effect of corporate image  on the  relationship between customer satisfaction and customer loyalty.  A systematic  sampling approach was adopted  to collect data through self-administered questionnaires from 500 hotel guests. Preliminary data analysis, descriptive analysis, reliability test and regression analysis were adopted to ana-lyze  the  reliability  of  items and the  hypothesized  relationships  in the  proposed  research model.  The findings revealed that perception of service quality is significantly related to customer satisfaction, which in turn generates positive customer loyalty in the hotel industry. Besides, corporate image is found to be a partial mediator in the relationship between customer satisfaction and customer loyalty. Overall, the find-ings of this study would help hotel operators to formulate and implement effective marketing manage-ment strategies to cope with the keen competition in the hotel service industry.    


Many banks in Indonesia have been conducting surveys to customers related to services at branch offices (Branch Service Quality) and Customer Engagement with results that continue to growevery year. With the advancement of digital technology, counter services have begun to shift to digital channels, especially mobile banking. Existing research related to the use of mobile banking uses e-servquality more often, which is generally used in research to see the excellence of services in internet banking, online shops, and digital marketplaces. Therefore, we consider it is necessary to carry on a research about the effect of mobile banking service quality on customer satisfaction and loyalty, the effect of customer perceived value on customer satisfaction and loyalty, and the effect of customer satisfaction with customer loyalty. The research was conducted by setting a sample of Bank XYZ customers who use Bank XYZ mobile banking, the total is 505 respondents. Structural equation modeling was used to carry outconfirmatory factor analysis and path analysis. From the results, it can be seen that mobile banking service quality and customer perceived value have a significant effect on customer satisfaction, but no significant effect on customer loyalty. Meanwhile, customer satisfaction has a significant effect on customer loyalty.

Purpose – Global mobile communication is one of the most dynamic and important service markets. Several researchers suggest using a theoretical approach to develop a much deeper insight into key marketing constructs such as service quality, customer perceived value, customer satisfaction, perceived switching costs, corporate image, and customer loyalty is of vital importance to the mobile communications market. This study aims to develop and test a comprehensive hierarchical model of these six important constructs. The model also incorporates the retailing function of a major mobile communication provider. Design/methodology/approach – The research sample of 516 was drawn from customers of one of the largest mobile communications service providers in China. The data were analysed using exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modelling. Findings – The results of the study support using a hierarchical and multidimensional approach for conceptualising and measuring customers' perceptions of service quality in the mobile communications market. In addition, the findings illustrate that service quality is an important determinant of customer perceived value, customer satisfaction, corporate image, and perceived switching costs. Customer perceived value is also an antecedent of customer satisfaction. Corporate image, customer satisfaction, and perceived switching costs are three key drivers of customer loyalty. However, the findings also indicate that corporate image is not an important determinant of customer satisfaction and that customer perceived value is not a key driver of customer loyalty. Originality/value – This is the first paper that has developed and tested a comprehensive hierarchical model of the mobile communications market.

This paper aims to examine empirically the mediation role of customer satisfaction between service quality, customer perceived value, corporate social responsibility, and brand loyalty at Lebanese private universities. A survey was administered with 378 respondents. A judgmental sample of university students were selected. The framework was tested through structural equation modeling (SEM). The findings indicate that service quality and perceived value influence customer satisfaction while satisfaction fully mediates the relationship between perceived value and brand loyalty. Additionally, corporate social responsibility showed insignificant relationship with customer satisfaction and brand loyalty. This study proposed that marketers should focus on service quality, customer perceived value and customer satisfaction for increasing brand loyalty in adopting their strategies at Lebanese private universities.

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to examine the effect of marathon enthusiasts' perceptions towards venue quality, race competition, organisation and service quality on their intention to participate in a destination marathon in the emerging region's context. It also seeks to investigate the mediating effect of perceived value and the moderating effect of intention to visit the destination on the intention to participate.Design/methodology/approachUsing purposive sampling technique, 177 valid Singapore marathon enthusiasts were sampled to look into their intention towards participating in destination marathon in Sarawak (marathon held in Kuching). The data were analysed using the partial least squares–structural equation modelling (PLS–SEM).FindingsThe results show that amongst the other determinants, perceived organisation and perceived service quality do not contribute to perceived value and intention to participate in destination marathon. Perceived value is found to mediate all path relationships except the relationship between perceived organisation and intention to participate. Moreover, the relationship between perceived value and intention to participate is significantly moderated by intention to tour Sarawak.Originality/valueThis study makes a substantial contribution to the extant literature pertaining to destination tourism and value-based marketing in an emerging market. In particular, it highlights the importance of perceived value and the relevance of destination tourism in joining a sport event on foreign soil. The use of PLS–SEM also allows a rigorous assessment of the relationships under investigation and provides better estimations of the phenomenon.

The demand on high skill graduate shows increasing trend in the context of Malaysia. Current supply of higher skill graduate is in adequate to support the industry. Thus, the government expected that, the number of student enrolment in higher Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) institutions to be increased. Recent studies highlighted that service quality and corporate image are two critical factors that influence student loyalty. However, the mediating effect of corporate image has given less attention in the previous research. Thus, the purpose of this research is to explore the mediating effect of corporate image on the relationship between the service quality and student loyalty. The scope of this study is final year student of higher TVET universities. 398 of completed questionnaires were analyzing using SPSS and Smart-PLS. The measurement model shows that all constructs are reliable. While the structural model result showed that there is a direct and significant effect of corporate image on the relationship between service quality and student loyalty. The mediating test indicates that there is a partial mediation of corporate image on the relationship between service quality and student satisfaction. Future research is suggested to explore in depth on other factors that could have mediate the relationship between service quality and student loyalty.

This study investigates the relationship between the dimensions of electronic (E)-banking service quality and customer purchasing intentions with the mediating role of customer satisfaction. Data were collected from employees and customers, working in different banks of Qatar through a validated closed-ended questionnaire from a sample of 235. Correlation analysis and regression analysis were implied to the obtained data to test the study hypothesis, and the report provided accurate results as per our expectations. The results of the study indicate that reliability, efficiency, responsiveness, communication, security, and privacy have a significant and positive impact on customer purchasing intentions. Customer purchasing intentions are significantly increased when the customers are satisfied with E-banking service quality. The mediating role of customer satisfaction was established for E-banking service quality and customer purchase intentions. Customer satisfaction tested as a mediator has shown a partial impact on the relationship between information technology (IT), E-banking service quality, and customer purchasing intentions. This study has significantly contributed to the area of research primarily within the domain of behavioral finance. The study also provides significant implications for academicians and practitioners.
