The rapid increase in social media users in Indonesia has caused organic black rice (OBR) to be traded online via social commerce (s-commerce). OBR is an environmentally friendly functional food that meets the requirements for sustainable agricultural products. Unfortunately, in Indonesia the demand is still low, so some producers are reluctant to continue the OBR business. Therefore, it is important to study consumer satisfaction. Previous studies have primarily focused on satisfaction with choices and results of the decision process, not satisfaction with the decision process. Satisfaction in the perspective of the decision process has not been widely studied. This paper aims to identify the dominant factors that influence satisfaction with the online OBR purchase decision process via s-commerce. The research design is quantitative with a survey technique of 200 online consumers drawn by stratified random and convenience sampling. Data analysis using Exploratory Factor Analysis and Path Analysis. The results showed that the dominant factors were security in purchasing decisions, Instagram and other social media, friends, satisfaction with the results, Internet, references of friends and family as well as consideration of product taste and aroma, attractiveness, and disease treatment. These eight dominant factors can be used as important considerations in online OBR business through s-commerce.

This study has examined factors, such as technology and employee influence on artificial intelligence (AI) adoption of e-innovative projects in the United Arab Emirates. The present study revealed the success or failure of e-innovation adoption in the public sector of the UAE and hinted at potential e-innovative projects to consider essential factors before adopting it. The study's sample covered the government sector, and the data collection method was a survey questionnaire with a sample size of 1037 responses made up of government employees. This paper was mainly built upon the diffusion of innovation and technology acceptance theories. The analysis findings showed that technology (an external factor) significantly and positively contributed to adopting AI e-innovation technology. Further analysis revealed that employee (internal factor) proxies directly influenced the adoption of AI e-innovation technology. Overall, internal and external factors contributed to adopting e-innovation technology in the United Arab Emirates. For future directions, additional factors related to the market should be considered to explore their contribution.

This study investigates the effect of perceived risks, i.e., financial risk, product risk, and convenience risk, as well as the COVID-19 pandemic situation on online shopping behavior among Malaysians. This study uses convenience sampling techniques and comprises 185 respondents who have experience buying online. In addition, the study setting was non-contrived, and data was gathered using a closed-ended questionnaire through an online survey. Descriptive analysis was conducted using SPSS version 25.0 software and SmartPLS version 3.2.8 to test the proposed hypotheses. This study found that perceived risk factors such as financial, product, and convenience risk did not influence online shopping behavior. In contrast, the COVID-19 pandemic positively influences online shopping behavior among consumers. It showed a new development in the theory of online shopping behavior, where users continue to make purchases despite being aware that there may be various risks due to the spread of COVID-19. The role of the ministry, business owners, and consumer associations needs to be given attention to form a sustainable electronic commerce system and protect the rights of consumers. This research can help consumers understand their rights.

The purpose of this study is to examine how Information and Communication Technology (ICT) affects village development performance, which is measured through the Developing Village Index (VDP). This index is made up of three dimensions: Social, Economic, and Environmental Resilience Indexes. By using quantitative methods and cross-sectional data from 1,842 villages in the Central Sulawesi Province in 2021, the study concludes that ICT has a positive impact on the development performance of villages overall. The study found that the quality of internet signals and the number of cell phone users, as well as the presence of technology devices and internet facilities in village offices, have a positive influence on village development performance. However, the existence of internet facilities for the public has no effect on village development performance, including economic, social, and environmental development in rural areas. By examining the effectiveness of both the community and the village government's utilization of ICT, this study contributes to understanding the impact of ICT in improving village development performance. To reduce the digital divide and continue to support rural development, it is important to enhance ICT facilities and infrastructure for rural communities and improve the quality of their implementation governance. Furthermore, to support the delivery of public services and the implementation of village development programs, both the government and Regional Government need to encourage the effectiveness of the use of ICT.

This study aims to examine the effect of digital literacy, digital marketing, and word of mouth on the interest of the z generation in Islamic banks. Researchers used primary data obtained from distributing questionnaires to students and students with a total sample of 460 respondents. In this study the sample acquisition technique used a purposive sample with the criteria for respondents being in the age range of 17 years to 25 years. The research method uses a quantitative approach and PLS analysis techniques assisted by SmartPLS version 3.0. The variables in this study include exogenous variables in the form of digital literacy, financial literacy, digital marketing, brand image and word of mouth as well as exogenous variables namely interest in Islamic banks. The results of this study indicate that financial literacy, digital marketing and word of mouth have an influence significant to the interest of the z generation in Islamic banks. Meanwhile, digital literacy and brand image have no significant effect on the z generation's interest in Islamic banks. The results of this study can be used as reference material in conducting further research, especially to determine Islamic banking marketing techniques for the z generation. For further research, it is expected to develop this research by adding other variables such as religiosity, location, level of service and other factors as well as other methods of research such as further and in-depth interview techniques with respondents so that more varied information results are obtained.

Digital transformation has become fundamental to improving the competitiveness of microenterprises worldwide, and Huancayo, Peru is no exception. By adopting digital technologies, microenterprises can improve their operational efficiency, expand their market reach and enhance their abilities to make informed decisions. They have therefore found innovative ways to adapt to changing market conditions, such as incorporating information technologies, online sales, use of social networks and home delivery. Despite this, many microenterprises struggle to survive due to lack of access to financing and adequate government support. This study aimed to analyze how individual, group and organizational factors influence the digital transformation of microenterprises and its impact on their competitiveness. The research was carried out in a sample of 80 multi-sector microenterprises, using a non-probabilistic and cross-sectional research design of a quali-quantitative and explanatory nature, using SEM-PLS. The results of the study indicate a positive relationship between individual, group and organizational factors and digital transformation, as well as with the competitiveness of microenterprises. The coefficients of determination (R2) obtained were 0.8897 and 0.7931 for digital transformation and competitiveness, respectively, indicating a predictive ability in both cases. These findings are of great use to policy makers, business owners and researchers interested in fostering the growth and development of microenterprises in emerging economies.

This study investigated the relationship between the digital gap and the intention of Jordanians towards e-government usage. It focused on three components of the digital divide namely access, skills, and innovativeness. In addition, the research investigated how socio-demographic factors influence this connection. Data comprised 620 valid replies to questionnaires issued to 700 Jordanian citizens aged 22 and older who resided in urban and rural areas. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 26 and Analysis of Moment Structures (AMOS) version 24 were employed in data analyses and hypotheses testing. The results showed that all three aspects of the digital divide had a significant influence (access, skills, and innovativeness) on the intent of Jordanian citizens to utilize e-government, and the dimension of access imparted the strongest impact, followed by the dimension of skills and then the dimension of innovativeness. Additionally, it was discovered that gender, age, and education were the socio-demographic factors that could weaken the impact of the digital divide on the intentions of user to access e-government services. Contrariwise, the factor of income did not show a similar impact. Furthermore, perceived security significantly impacted the propensity towards e-government usage. Trust played a significant role in mediating the link between perceived security and the intention to engage in e-government.

The results showed that all three aspects of the digital divide had a significant influence (access, skills, and innovativeness) on the intent of Jordanian citizens to utilize e-government, and the dimension of access imparted the strongest impact, followed by the dimension of skills and then the dimension of innovativeness. Additionally, it was discovered that gender, age, and education were the socio-demographic factors that could weaken the impact of the digital divide on the intentions of user to access e-government services. Contrariwise, the factor of income did not show a similar impact. Furthermore, perceived security significantly impacted the propensity towards e-government usage. Trust played a significant role in mediating the link between perceived security and the intention to engage in e-government.","PeriodicalId":36543,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Data and Network Science","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70778969","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
