This research’s objective was to analyse the impact of sustainable practices, destination image, perceived value and novelty seeking on tourist satisfaction and temporal revisit intention in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The respondents in this study were tourists in the city of Yogyakarta, with a sample size of 420 respondents. The methodology of this research employed a purposive sampling technique. Nonprobability sampling was performed using the structural equation modelling method that was processed using AMOS 22.0. The results of this research show that sustainable practices, destination image, perceived value and novelty seeking have positive and significant effects on satisfaction. Satisfaction mediates the impact of sustainable practices, destination image, perceived value and novelty seeking on revisit intention, showing that the influence of these factors on temporal revisit intention will be enhanced if tourists are satisfied. This study has implications for marketing strategies for tourism sectors in revisiting contexts.

Background/Objectives: The extensive exposure of physicians to the COVID-19 pandemic has contributed to occupational stress and burnout in their daily lives. This study aimed to explore the lived experiences of intern physicians who experienced burnout during the COVID-19 pandemic and to identify potential solutions to enhance clinical practices in future pandemics. Methods: This study employed a qualitative, phenomenological study utilizing in-depth interviews. The participants were 19 first-year intern physicians from public hospitals in Thailand, selected through a purposeful sampling approach who had experienced burnout. Semi-structured interviews were conducted face-to-face and via online platforms. A thematic narrative analysis approach was used. Results: Phenomenological explorations included two parts: the first explored physicians’ workplace conditions while providing patient care, and the second focused on their proposed solutions for policy changes in clinical practices and hospital management. Four main themes in the first part were derived: (1) emotional suffering and burnout; (2) engaging with a high-intensity workplace; (3) hostile work environments; and (4) deterioration of relationships with staff and colleagues. The second part identified three main themes: (1) changes in policy of clinical practices; (2) effective hospital management; and (3) building interpersonal skills. Conclusions: The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated challenges faced by intern physicians, such as high-pressure working conditions, deteriorated relationships with colleagues, and ineffective management, all of which contribute to burnout. These challenges require targeted policy changes in clinical practices, effective hospital management, and building interpersonal skills. Recommendations include improved clinical practices, increased academic support, comprehensive orientation programs, effective communication, teamwork assistance, stress management, and transforming organizational culture to value physicians during internships.

Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs) are commonly used to manage stress and well-being in organizations in Thailand; however, their utilization rates remain low among employees. This study investigates the factors that influence employees’ utilization of an EAP, focusing on the moderating roles of perceived privacy protection and perceived trust, using the Health Belief Model (HBM). Data were collected by surveying 434 employees from organizations providing EAPs in Thailand. Structural Equation Modelling was employed to analyze the data and test the hypotheses. The findings indicated that employees’ intention to use EAPs was significantly influenced by perceived benefits, cues to action, and privacy protection, whereas self-efficacy had a negative effect. Moreover, perceived privacy protection can strengthen the relationship between self-efficacy and EAP utilization, while it weakens the relationship between cues to action and perceived barriers. Perceived trust further enhances the impact of perceived severity and self-efficacy on EAP utilization. The practical implications for organizations are also discussed.
