<pre>The information on the health status of an individual is often gathered based on a health survey. Patient assessment on the quality of hospital services is important as a reference in improving the service so that it can increase a patient satisfaction and patient loyalty. The concepts of health service are often involve multivariate factors with multidimensional sructure of corresponding factors. One of the methods that can be used to model such these variables is SEM (Structural Equation Modeling). Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) is a multivariate method that incorporates ideas from regression, path-analysis and factor analysis. A Bayesian approach to SEM may enable models that reflect hypotheses based on complex theory. Bayesian SEM is used to construct the model for describing the patient loyalty at <em>Puskesmas</em> in Padang City. The convergence test with the history of trace plot, density plot and the model consistency test were performed with three different prior types. Based on Bayesian SEM approach, it is found that the quality of service and patient satisfaction significantly related to the patient loyalty.</pre>
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
