Uncovering Guests’ Satisfaction and Dissatisfaction Through Tripadvisor Reviews: Evidence From Sheraton Senggigi Beach Resort
Full text linkThis study examines key factors influencing guest satisfaction and dissatisfaction at Sheraton Senggigi Beach Resort (SSBR) based on online reviews, comparing high-rated (5-Star and 4-Star) and low-rated (3-Star, 2-Star, and 1-Star) reviews to identify aspects driving positive and negative guest perceptions. A content analysis was conducted on 1,921 English-language reviews from TripAdvisor spanning 2005 to 2024, with thematic analysis employed to uncover patterns in guest experiences. The findings reveal that positive reviews emphasize excellent service, well-maintained facilities, strategic location, and cleanliness as primary drivers of satisfaction, whereas negative reviews highlight outdated room conditions, inadequate service, and cleanliness issues as major sources of dissatisfaction. This study offers a unique comparative analysis of guest reviews, contributing to the academic literature by demonstrating how online reviews can be leveraged to understand guest experiences at luxury hotels while addressing gaps in research on rating-based review differences.
TELAAH KONSEPTUAL RELATIONSHIP MARKETING DAN PERKEMBANGANNYA
Full text linkMany academics and practician of marketing admit that Relationship Marketing (RM) has developed vastly and also considered contributed to paradigm reformation, it even become the basis of marketing science theory reform. Hence, discussion on RM is interesting to be studied. The study aimed to synthesize various opinion and former research result to get a clearer view for academics, manager and general reader concerning concept of RM. Various literatures, either periodic journals, conference articles and textbooks are collected and used as references in this monography. Writer find out some perspectives used by scientists to describe RM concept, start from marketing philosopny aspect, resources based perspective, marketing strategy, value creation and mutual value creation (value co-creation). Writer concluded that various perspectives applied in formulating RM is strengthen the other perspective. Despite seems to be overlapped but there’s a link that connected each perspective. Writer thought that (theoretically) value co-creation is the most relevant perspective to outlines RM process and activities in today’s situation. Whereas in field, many corporates placed RM as one of their main strategy in marketed the company
The Effect of Gender on Consumer Satisfaction and Loyalty in Modern Retail Stores
Full text linkThis study aimed to determine whether there were differences in the satisfaction and loyalty of male and female consumers at the Alfamart Mujur branch of the retail store in East Praya. A total of 140 respondents participated, and the data analysis used was the MANOVA Test with SPSS 17. From the several hypotheses proposed, it was found that the three alternative hypotheses were rejected. In other words, there was no difference, either partially or simultaneously, between the satisfaction and loyalty of male consumers. - male and female. Based on these findings, Alfamart Branch Mujur must remain focused on developing consumer-oriented marketing and service strategies without the need to differentiate services or treatment for male and female consumers
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
