This research has the aim of analyzing the relationship between the supply chain service quality variable and consumer satisfaction, analyzing the use of information technology variable on consumer satisfaction at the Immigration organization. This research method is associative quantitative research and aims to determine the relationship between two or more variables. In this way, we can build a theory that functions to predict and control a phenomenon. The population in this study were all immigration organization employees. In this research, an analysis model is used, namely Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). In this study, the number of respondents was 613 immigration organization customers. The sampling technique used in this research is nonprobability sampling. In this research, the data collection method used was the questionnaire method. The instrument used to measure this research variable is a 5-point Likert scale. Data processing in this research uses SmartPLS software. The stages of data analysis in this research are the outer model test which includes convergent validity, discriminant validity and composite reliability as well as inner model analysis, namely hypothesis testing. Based on data analysis, it is concluded that Supply chain service quality has a positive and crucial impact on consumer satisfaction. The use of information technology has a positive and crucial impact on consumer satisfaction.

The research objective is to investigate the effect of brand equity on Thai cosmetic purchasing decisions. The study involved 500 individuals aged 20-59 who had purchased and used Thai cosmetic products within the past year. A multistage sampling method was employed to select the participants. Data collection was carried out using questionnaires, and both descriptive and multivariate statistical analyses were conducted, explicitly utilizing Second-order Confirmatory Factor Analysis and Structural Equation Modeling. The research results showed four factors influencing the purchasing decisions of Thai brand cosmetic products: Brand Equity, Buying Behavior, Consumer Satisfaction, and Perceived Value. The Second-order Confirmatory Factor Analysis and Structural Equation Model demonstrated that these factors met the assessment criteria when applied to the empirical data. Consequently, if a brand can establish brand equity that surpasses its competitors in the eyes of consumers, it will contribute to long-term profitability and sustained growth.

The purpose of the study is to analyze the impact of e-quality services on consumer satisfaction and loyalty in Nigeria. A cross-sectional research design was adopted using a well-structured questionnaire to elicit information for 408 postgraduate students currently studying in Nigerian universities. The research instrument was validated, while data collected were analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Science (SPSS) and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) for hypotheses testing. The result revealed a statistically significant positive relationship among consumer satisfaction, loyalty, e-service quality and their dimensions while the findings established trust and satisfaction as prominent mediators for online purchases. This research contributes to the study of online shopping and e-loyalty by developing a model on the construct within the e-commerce context and suggesting possible factors that may influence quality service decisions.

This study was designed to identify and analyze the effect of perceived value, differentiation, and emotional branding on customer satisfaction and trust; non-recursive influence between customer satisfaction and customer trust of the vivo smartphone in Medan. Respondents consist of adults who use vivo smartphones domiciled in Medan. The analysis technique uses a structural equation model with the robust maximum likelihood method. Data processing is assisted by Lisrel software and the results indicate in case the direct effect coefficient of the same latent variable is positive in the non-recursive and recursive models, the coefficient will be higher in the recursive model. Therefore, it is important for vivo smartphone management to verify first, whether the relationship between customer satisfaction and trust is reciprocal. In case it is one way, where satisfaction affects customer trust, then the strategy or program of increasing perceived value and differentiation directly at customer satisfaction is more optimal. Furthermore, it will have an impact on customer trust since the satisfaction mediating effect is higher than the customer trust mediating effect in the recursive model. The program of increasing consumer trust with emotional branding through customer satisfaction is good, since the mediation of satisfaction is significant in both non-recursive and recursive contexts.

The development of the internet infrastructure has generated a new phenomenon and lead to some changes in business strategies as it allowed two-way communications among consumers and companies. At present, social media play a key role in communicating information to people around the world and clearly play a vital role in increasing interaction and awareness in an important way. At present, awareness of diseases has disappeared with new methods. Social networking sites like Twitter, Snapchat and Facebook may change the roles the meanings of information delivery and play a superior in that scope. This research investigates the main factors of the power of social media activities (customization, and e-WOM) towards in-creasing Saudi’s awareness on using m-healthcare apps. The results indicate that customization had a positive and direct influence on increasing Saudi’s awareness towards using m-healthcare apps (Brand Awareness). e-WOM had a positive and direct influence on increasing Saudi’s awareness toward using m-healthcare apps (brand awareness), confirming that the power of social media activities was an imperative contributor to brand equity (brand awareness).
