Therefore, the aim of this study is to do the initial development and content validation of a questionnaire that identifies and measures the risk factors influencing the fatigue levels. The questionnaire was developed by implementing adapt method followed by item generation in the initial development. This questionnaire was then validated in terms of content validation by expert panel reviews. The content validity result are as follows: 64-items out of 146-items scale had I-CVI below 1, 24-items with I-CVI of 0.8, and 3-items with 0.7, and the remaining items had I-CVI of below than 0.7. The average value of CVR was 1, and the S-CVI/Ave of the questionnaire was 0.93. Items with content validity of 0.7 and above was maintained, therefore, the questionnaire ended with 87-items. Findings indicates that the questionnaire is valid for assessing the physical and psychosocial risk factors associating with the fatigue levels.

This research focuses on the influence of brand awareness, attitudes, and social norms on the intentions of Muslim and non-Muslim tourists to visit Lombok as a Halal tourism destination. Lombok has been designated by the Indonesian government as a center for Islamic tourism, providing a complementary option to Bali’s Hindu cultural tourism. The study utilized the Theory of Planned Behavior and gathered data via an online survey involving 123 participants, 56 non-Muslims and 67 Muslims. The results indicated that Halal brand awareness and social norms did not significantly impact non-Muslim tourists' intentions to visit Lombok. At the same time, brand awareness also did not affect Muslim tourists. Attitudes were identified as the main factor influencing their willingness to visit. Interestingly, the R-squared values differed notably between the two groups, with the variables accounting for 58.1% of non-Muslim tourists' decisions but only 39.9% for Muslim tourists. This research offers new insights into Halal tourism from both Muslim and non-Muslim perspectives.
