Unveiling the power of ethical leadership: Improving employee performance through promoting employees wellbeing in the tourism sector

This study is about the influence of ethical leadership in both employees wellbeing and employee performance in Egypt’s tourism industry. Besides, it examines the indirect effect of ethical leadership on performance through its influence on the well-being of employees. The research was based on a quantitative research method and the surveys were self-administered, distributed and collected from a random sample of the employees of the Tourism companies. Analysis of 515 valid responses using structural equation modeling (SEM) unveiled several key findings: Ethical leadership is the main reason why both employee well-being and performance are significantly increased, and the fact that employee well-being is also the main reason for the improvement of performance. In addition, the employee well-being plays the role of the bridge between the ethical leadership and the performance. These insights are of great help for the decision-makers in the crafting of the effective leadership strategies that will lead to the creation of the thriving and high-performed work environments in Egyptian tourism sector.

National economic benefits through high-speed train services: The role of service quality and quality pursuer on client satisfaction

The connectivity and dependency between various connected locations has become stronger as the rate of urbanization and economic expansion has accelerated. Transport has played a critical role in promoting the flow of economic benefits and growth across linked geographical areas since its origin. Therefore, the purpose of this paper was to provide deeper insights into the relationship between service quality and client satisfaction by exploring the mediating and moderating role of service quality and quality pursuer on client satisfaction. The research used quantitative approaches and employed a non-probability sampling technique. The 240 samples were analysed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). The findings show that there is a positive relationship between, assurance, responsiveness, convenience, and service quality. Conversely, findings show an insignificant relationship between empathy and service quality. Findings specify that service quality mediate the association between assurance, responsiveness, convenience, and client satisfaction. Nevertheless, the study observed an insignificant mediation effect of service quality on the linkage between empathy and customer satisfaction. The findings specify that quality pursuers have a significant moderating effect on the relationship between service quality and client satisfaction. As a result, the findings of this present research give useful information for improving client satisfaction and the role of long-term viability of the high-speed rail business in the national economy. This research offers valuable insights for transportation agencies by examining the link between service quality attributes and passengers’ intentions to reuse services, aiming to enhance the provided service, boost ridership, and support the implementation of sustainable transportation policies. The study recognizes certain limitations, such as the restricted sample size and the diverse characteristics of high-speed rail passengers, which may skew the understanding of how service quality affects customer satisfaction and subsequent behaviors. Our results suggest that satisfaction levels among passengers could differ based on the specific routes taken and the types of seating arrangements offered. Consequently, authorities should priorities service quality and its four important characteristics.

Public perspectives on digital innovations in pharmacy: A survey on health informatics and medication management

This study investigates the public’s perceptions of digital innovations in pharmacy, with a focus on health informatics and medication management. Despite the rapid development of these technologies, a comprehensive understanding of how various demographics perceive and interact with them is lacking hence, this research aims to bridge this gap by offering insights into public attitudes and the factors influencing the adoption of digital tools in pharmacy practice, as KSA population and healthcare professionals after Covid-19 has observed the significant potential of digital health. A cross-sectional survey involving 1132 participants was conducted, employing SPSS for data analysis to ensure precise and reliable results. The findings indicate general optimism about the potential of digital innovations to enhance healthcare outcomes but concerns about data privacy and usability significantly affect user acceptance. The researchers recommended tailored educational programs and user-centered design to facilitate the adoption of digital pharmacy innovations. Key contributions include the identification of ‘Ease of Use’ and ‘Data Security and Privacy’ as predominant factors in the adoption of digital health tools.

Achieving sustainable development goal 6 through improved access to clean water and sanitation in Nigerian rural areas

Access to clean water and improved sanitation are basic elements of any meaningful discourse in rural development. They are critical challenges for achieving sustainable development over the next decade. This paper seeks to examine the strategies for improving access to clean water and sanitation in Nigerian rural communities. Hypothetically, the paper states that there is no significant relationship between access to clean water and sanitation and the attainment of Sustainable Development Goal 6 in Nigeria. The paper leverages Resilience Theory. The survey research design was adopted, and primary data was obtained from a sample size of 250 respondents, proportionally drawn from the 10 wards in Obanliku local government area of Cross River State. The chi-square statistical technique was to test the hypothesis. The result shows that the calculated value of Chi-square (X²) is 24.4. Since the P-value of 21.03 is less than the level of significance (0.05), the null hypothesis was rejected and the alternate accepted. The study concludes that there is a significant relationship between access to clean water and sanitation and the attainment of Sustainable Development Goal 6 in Cross River State, Nigeria. it recommends the need for more commitment on the part of government and international donor agencies in expanding access to clean water and improved sanitation in Nigeria.

Harmonizing sentiments: Analyzing user reviews of Spotify through sentiment analysis

This research investigates the sentiment of user reviews on Spotify, with a particular focus on the Indonesian market, leveraging advanced sentiment analysis techniques. We employed three prominent classification models—Naïve Bayes, Support Vector Machine (SVM), and Random Forest—to analyze a dataset of 14,296 user reviews extracted from the Google Play Store and App Store. These findings reveal that the SVM model achieved the highest performance, with an F1-score of 0.875 and an accuracy of 0.874, outperforming Naïve Bayes and Random Forest, which scored accuracies of 0.857 and 0.856 respectively. These results highlight not only the significance of this research which offers valuable contributions to the broader academic discourse on digital marketing, sentiment analysis, and consumer behavior. Additionally, it also showcases the robustness and superior performance of SVM and Random Forest in various sentiment analysis contexts. This study not only provides valuable insights for Spotify’s future development strategies but also contributes to the broader academic discourse on sentiment analysis and machine learning model performance in digital marketing. By highlighting the efficacy of specific models, this research underscores the importance of model selection in sentiment analysis, paving the way for more accurate and effective sentiment analysis applications in the music streaming industry.
