The present study aimed at testing a model developed to uncover the relationships among social media addiction, cognitive absorption, and self-esteem. This studys’ sample consisted of 361 university students, 198 of whom were females, and 163 were males. Data were collected using the Social Media Addiction Scale (SMAS), the Cognitive Absorption Scale (CAS), and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES). Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) was used to analyse the data. The results showed a positive and significant relationship between cognitive absorption and social media addiction; thus, cognitive absorption predicted social media addiction. A negative and significant relationship between self-esteem and social media addiction was also found; thus, self-esteem predicted social media addiction.

The study aims to investigate the relationship between service quality and customer satisfaction in a retail clothing company. The study utilized the SERVQUAL model to guide the study. Purposive sampling was applied in the study where quantitative (survey) method was employed with generating 140 valid responses. The data were then analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling through Smart-PLS 3.0. The results revealed that three (3) dimension of SERVQUAL (tangibles, empathy, and responsiveness) has a positive and significant relationship with customers. However, reliability and assurance yielded negative with customer satisfaction. In addition, out of the five determinants of SERVQUAL, assurance was found not significant to customer satisfaction. Conclusion, implications, and suggestions for future study are also discussed.

The main objective of this study was to explore the relationship between riding attitude, sensation seeking, anger and riding confidence with risky riding behaviour among motorcyclist at University Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP). Partial Least Squares of Structural equation modelling (SEM) and Statistical Package Social Science (SPSS) are utilized to determine the direct effect of the variables. The results discovered that riding attitude, sensation seeking, and anger had shown positive significant relationship towards risky riding behaviour while riding confidence has shown negative significant relationship towards risky riding behaviour.

The purpose of the article is to provide a comprehensive advertising model, which examines the impact of the identified predictors such as entertainment, informativeness, irritation, credibility, incentives and personalization on social media advertising value (SMAV) and further see the impact of SMAV on the attitudes of millennials towards social media advertising (ATSMA). A quantitative and deductive approach of research was followed, where data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire from 478 Indian social media users. The model developed was validated using exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis followed by structural equation modelling to test the relationships between the identified predictors and SMAV. The results confirm the relationship between identified predictors and SMAV. Also, positive relationship has been found out between SMAV and ATSMA. Further, in the research article, there is a detailed discussion on results, implications, limitations and directions for future work.

A Company

This work firstly aims to develop a sustainability model based on Ibn Haldun’s teaching of sustainability. Religious coloring refers to the spirituality, which is re-discovered in modern ages and transferred to the workplace. Spirituality stimulates virtuousness at personal and organizational level, which in turn generates managerial sustainability meaning the lifespan of a company. While personal virtuousness refers social ethics, organizational level virtuousness could be considered as Corporate Social Responsibility. Secondly, it attempts to evaluate the relevance of Ibn Haldun’s approach to contemporary business organizations. In order to demonstrate the relationship between spirituality, virtuousness, CSR, and sustainability; data collected from Corporate Knights’ Global 100 companies were analyzed using structural equation modelling. According to the results, while workplace spirituality leads to ethical conduct and higher CSR/CS score, the relationship between spirituality or CSR/CS and financial performance is not significant. However, it seems that higher lifespan of business enterprises is related to their CSR/CS score.

Purpose This study aims to examine the relationship between environmental cost (EC) on organisational performance (OPM) through an environmental management system (EMS) as the mediating variable. Design/methodology/approach A total of 2,600 manufacturers were identified and consequently selected as the entire study population. Additionally, this study used the structural equation modelling technique to identify the mediator effects of EMS between EC and OPM. Findings The EC and EMS relationship on OPM produced direct and indirect consequences. Hence, it is concluded that manufacturing industry in Malaysia are focused on the OPM when implementing EC and EMS. Originality/value The model would incorporate EC and EMS implementation on OPM in the Malaysian manufacturing industry. This study could also be advantageous to the industry in improving EC, EMS and OPM.

The World

Social media sites are becoming more popular throughout the world. These sites are adopting advertisement supported business models to generate revenues and become profitable. Advertisement supported models are the preferred choice for these site with regards to the belief that users are not willing to pay money to use these ever free sites. In this study this belief was questioned and Facebook, the most popular of social media sites was chosen as the setting of the study. The attitudes towards social media advertisements and their antecedents were measured and their potential effects on users’ willingness to pay for not seeing ads were tested. A questionnaire was developed using well-cited and tested scales from the relevant literature and it was implemented over Internet to Facebook users. 281 out of 327 collected questionnaires were used in the analysis following a screening process. The analysis was carried out using structural equation modelling. The findings indicate that attitudes and its antecedents affect th intentions to pay for not seeing ads negatively.

Berangkat dari sebuah fenomena yang berupa sebagian besar unsur pimpinan puskesmas di Kabupaten Bangkalan dijabat oleh pihak yang berkopetensi fungsional (dokter), sedangkan regulasi menyatakan bahwa kepala puskesmas harus seorang sarjana dibidang kesehatan yang kurikulum pendidikannya mencakup kesehatan masyarakat, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh instrumen implementasi kebijakan dan keterlibatan aktor terhadap kebijakan publik.Penelitian ini termasuk jenis penelitian survey dengan rancangan explanatory research dan menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif. Data dikumpulkan dengan menggunakan kuesioner kepada 138 responden. Responden kepala dinas kesehatan dan pegawai dinas kesehatan, tokoh agama, tokoh masyarakat, serta LSM yang ditentukan dengan menggunakan teknik sampling purposive sampling dan pegawai puskesmas yang ditentukan dengan teknik sampling acak (area random sampling). Untuk menguji pola hubungan yang dibangun peneliti menggunakan alat analisis Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) dengan bantuan program SPSS (statistical program for the social science) versi 20.Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa: 1. Semakin tersedia instrumen implementasi kebijakan publik, semakin bagus pula kebijakan dalam pengelolaan puskesmas; 2. Semakin tinggi keterlihatan aktor, semakin bagus pula kebijakan publik tentang pengelolaan puskesmas; 3. Semakin bagus implementasi kebijakan publik, semakin bagus pula revitalisasi puskesmas; 4. Semakin bagus kebijakan publik, semakin bagus pula revitalisasi publik; 5. Semakin tepat penempatan pejabat, semakin bagus pula revitalisasi puskesmas.
