Data analysis was conducted at a significance level of 0.5%. The results are as follows: There is a significant influence of OC on TP, as evidenced by the t-test result showing that t-value 22.458 > t-table 1.966 and Sig 0.000 < 0.05; thus, hypothesis H1 is accepted. There is a significant influence of C on TP, as evidenced by the t-test result showing that t-value 2.420 > t-table 1.966 and sig 0.016 < 0.05; thus, hypothesis H2 is accepted. There is a significant influence of the SL on TP, as evidenced by the t-test result showing that t-value 2.379 > t-table 1.966 and sig 0.18 < 0.05; thus, hypothesis H3 is accepted. Based on the F-test, the calculated F-value is 578.741; because the calculated F-value 578.741 > F-table 2.395, it means that hypothesis H4 is accepted, or in other words, OC, C, and SL collectively influence TP. The coefficient of determination test yields a Coefficient of Determination (R-Square) for TP of 0.819, exceeding the value of 0.67, indicating that the independent variables collectively have a strong influence, accounting for 81.9% of TP. In conclusion, there is a significant combined influence of (X1), (X2), and (X3) on TP. This influence is direct and accounts for 81.9%, while the remaining 18.1% is influenced by other variables not tested in this research.
