The use of push notifications is one of the most relevant strategies to proactively communicate with a user from within various apps. Europe has adopted an opt-in requirement wherein users have to explicitly express that they agree to receive push notifications from apps. This paper examines the influence of two different approaches for framing this opt-in request: focusing on the experiential value the user would eventually receive through the information provided by the notifications (moderated by the personal involvement with the app) and focusing on the social proof aspect, i.e., the behaviour of the majority of the app users (moderated by the user's susceptibility to interpersonal influence). The results indicate that improving the quality of the information provided to the user help firms attain higher levels of user participation. This research deepens the understanding of the consumer's decision process in the context of mobile advertising.

This research paper valuates the factors of continuance intention and intention to recommend application-based mobile payment systems. The research model has been developed based on several strands of theories in information systems. The model has been tested using 360 respondents' data collected from Wuhan, PR China. This study used a hybrid method by relating structural equation modelling (SEM) and artificial neural network (ANN) for analysing data. The SEM confirms that satisfaction, perceived usefulness, perceived enjoyment, habit, and context are the key predictors of the continuance intention. The continuance intention positively affects the intention to recommend the application-based mobile payment. This study also confirms the moderating effect of context on the relationship between satisfaction and continuance intention. The ANN concludes that the most significant predictor of continuance intention is satisfaction, while the least important factor is habit. This study's implications provide worthy insights to the researchers, practitioners, and managers, which assist them in devising effective strategies for implementing application-based mobile payment.

For a better understanding of user experiences in new media, this paper develops an empirical model to examine the relationships between individual motivations, user engagement and livestreaming media usage. An online survey was used to collect 565 valid samples and verify them through the method of partial least square (PLS) in terms of measurement validity and path relationships. An empirical framework was developed to illustrate the correlation between motivation and interaction process during livestreaming. Social engagement has more influence on user intention than content and host engagement. In addition, individuals may have more entertainment-related and social motives when interacting with hosts and attaining mental support from the social community. Social influence is the main drive behind the host and social engagement, among other factors. The results contribute to the research community by delineating the scopes of viewers' motivation and engagement experience which are not discussed in prior studies.

This paper proposes EPMA, an innovative persuasive framework, for supporting and evaluating an individual's travelling attitude towards sustainable mobility. EPMA emphasises the importance of engaging mobile application users to improve their travel habits and adopt a sustainable travelling attitude through appropriate motivation and feedback. This energy feedback is the new element of EPMA compared to existing frameworks for assessing this behavioural travel change. An application mockup named Epma_App, which embeds the functionality of EPMA, is presented and evaluated. The results indicate that the participants are willing to change their travelling habits towards more sustainable options and intend to use Epma_App for this change. Moreover, they are eager to provide evaluation feedback regularly to improve the travel services offered. Furthermore, the ease of use and effectiveness of Epma_App result in increasing the intention to use it not only for navigation purposes but also in fostering a long-life eco-friendly attitude.
