Objective : To empirically investigate the relationship of internal and external customer satisfactions, service quality, and customer loyalty in medical services. Methods : This essay proposes an integrated model to explain the causality of internal and external customer satisfactions, service quality, and customer loyalty. To this end, a structural model was developed, consisting of the following factors: internal and external customer satisfactions, service quality, and customer loyalty. The study included 214 sets of data, with 107 sets being collected for both out-patients and in-patients. The data were analyzed using AMOS 4.0. Results : We found the greater the internal customer satisfaction, the greater the out-patient quality of service quality. Secondly, the greater the service quality, the greater the external customer satisfaction of both in- and out-patients. The service quality of doctors, compared to that of the nurses, had a greater effect on external customer satisfaction. Thirdly, the service quality of doctors and nurses affected both internal and external customer satisfactions, which ultimately affected the customer loyalty. Finally the greater the external customer satisfaction, the greater the customer loyalty. Conclusion : This Study confirms the positive relationship among the internal and external customer satisfactions, service quality, and customer loyalty, which proves the doctors quality of service is the primary factor for external satisfaction, and customer loyalty relating to medical services.

In recent years, there have been several studies on service quality in higher education, however, research on service quality and sustainable activities affecting student loyalty has been largely ignored in previous studies. This paper investigates the role of service quality in creating student loyalty, and how university sustainability practices and student satisfaction mediate the relationship between service quality and student loyalty. The paper draws attention to university sustainability practices and understanding its impact on student satisfaction and loyalty in Vietnamese public universities. A quantitative methodology is explored, and data was collected through an online structured questionnaire. Responses are gathered from 278 students of public universities in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Structural equation modeling is used to examine the associations between the constructs by using the PLS-SEM approach. The results show that service quality has a significant effect on university sustainability practices, student satisfaction, and student loyalty. In addition, university sustainability practices and student satisfaction also mediate the relationship between service quality and student loyalty. The author's findings may guide the key decision-makers in universities to incorporate service quality and universities' sustainability practices in their strategy and thereby improve student satisfaction and student loyalty.

This study investigated the effect of the delivery service quality of Mongolian online shopping on the customer value, customer trust, and relationship persistence intention of Mongolian consumers. Through this, the purpose of this study is to understand the priorities of the quality conditions of delivery services (accuracy, economy, information, safety, tangibility, etc.) that Mongolian consumers value. The empirical analysis results of this study are as follows. First, the effect of delivery service quality on the intention to continue the relationship showed partially significant results. In other words, economics, information, and safety, excluding accuracy and tangibility, influenced the intention to continue the relationship. Second, the effect of delivery service quality on customer value was partially significant. In other words, accuracy, economy, safety, and tangibility, excluding informativity, influenced customer value. Third, the effect of delivery service quality on customer reliability was partially significant. In other words, economics, safety, and tangibility, excluding accuracy and informativity, influenced customer reliability. Fourth, the hypothesis of customer value on customer reliability was adopted, followed by the hypothesis of customer value on relationship continuity intention.

Purpose With Intelligent public service (IPS), it is possible to automate the quality of civil affairs, provide customized services for citizens, and provide timely public services. However, empirical studies on factors for the successful use of IPS are still insufficient. Hence, the purpose of this study is to empirically analyze the factors that affect the success of IPS with classification function. ISSM (Information System Success Model) is considered as the underlying research model, and how the algorithm quality, data quality, and environmental quality of the discrimination system affect the relationship between utilization intentions is analyzed. Design/methodology/approach In this study, a survey was conducted targeting users using IPS. After giving them a preliminary explanation of the intelligent public service centered on the discrimination system, they briefly experienced two types of IPS currently being used in the public sector. Structural model analysis was conducted using Smart-PLS 4.0 with a total of 415 valid samples. Findings First, it was confirmed that algorithm quality and data quality had a significant positive (+) effect on information quality and system quality. Second, it was confirmed that information quality, system quality, and environmental quality had a positive (+) effect on the use of IPS. Thirdly, it was confirmed that the use of IPS had a positive (+) effect on the net profit for the use of IPS. In addition, the moderating effect of the degree of knowledge on AI, the perceived accuracy of discriminative experience and IPS, and the user was analyzed. The results suggest that ISSM and TOE framework can expand the understanding of the success of IPS.

This article assesses factors that affect the ability of local fire branch heads in Taiwan to mobilize volunteer organizations in local emergency responses. Data from a survey of local fire branch heads in Taiwan is analyzed by using an OLS model to test three hypotheses regarding the relationship between the dependent variable, perceived ability to mobilize volunteer organizations in emergency response, and three explanatory variables: organizational capacity, quality of communication, and the quality of citizen engagement ex-ante to emergency response. The model indicates a positive relationship between the ability to mobilize volunteer organizations in emergency response, the quality of communications, and the quality of citizen engagement in preparedness. The research suggests that local fire branch heads and volunteer organizations should begin the process of emergency response mobilization in the preparedness stage. The quality of the citizen engagement in preparedness stages should increase the ability of local fire branch managers to mobilize external resources in emergency response.
