The Influence of Flow Experience on Online Consumers’ Information Searching Behavior: An Empirical Study of Chinese College Students

With the rapid development of the online shopping market in recent years, flow theory has become one of the main theories used to explore online consumers’ shopping behaviors. Although flow experience may influence information searching behavior, little is known about this topic. This study explored the impacts of flow experience on online consumers’ information searching behavior in festival shopping. The questionnaire survey was conducted in several universities in China. The data, collected from 154 college students, were analyzed quantitatively. As the three key components of flow experience, perceived pleasure has negative effect on information searching frequency, whereas concentration has positive effect on information searching frequency. Perceived control does not have a significant impact on information searching frequency. It also revealed consumers’ information searching behavior positively affecting their purchase intentions in this special shopping context. We found that flow experience is an important psychological factor influencing online consumers’ information searching behavior. The study enriches the emotional dimension of information behavior model and provides insight into the relationships between positive psychological variables with flow experience as the representation and information searching behavior in shopping context.

COVID-19, bats and the Internet: a causal impact analysis to measure how a pandemic and news coverage can trigger online-searching behaviour about wildlife.

Following COVID-19 epidemic, Italian media regularly portrayed bats as key actors in the spillover. This depiction is often based on the misinterpretation of scientific evidence about bats and SARS-CoV-2, and may contribute to increase bat persecution worldwide if not accompanied by sufficiently clear explanations. Moreover, it is unclear whether people adjusted their information-searching behavior following this coverage.We analyzed Google and Wikipedia data about bats and coronavirus in Italy, before and after the pandemic: we i) qualitatively inspected Google-related searches about bats, before and after January 2020, ii) checked whether Google and Wikipedia searches about bats and coronavirus were associated and iii) carried out causal impact analysis to assess how the declaration of pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) affected the daily number of visits to the Italian Wikipedia page about bats.Before 2020, related searches about bats did not include neither viruses, nor zoonoses, nor China, nor bat consumption as a food. All these topics have become dominant since January 2020. The number of searches about bats and coronavirus were related, between Google and Wikipedia, as well as within these domains. Causal impact analysis indicated an average 64% increase in the daily number of visits to the Italian Wikipedia page about bats, following the global emergency declaration by the WHO the 30th of January 2020.Extended media coverage about COVID-19 and the potential role of bats as carriers of SARS-CoV-2 and as species involved in the spillover have increased people interest towards this mammal group. It is unclear how much, and in which direction, these changes might have shifted public attitudes towards bats. Future studies should address this issue, and see whether it would increase bat persecution or bat stewardship behaviors. For now, we can say that Covid-19 outbreak increased information-searching behavior about bats in Italy.

Push-pull-mooring framework for e-commerce adoption in small and medium enterprises

Purpose The purpose of this paper is twofold: first, to develop a conceptual model using the push-pull-mooring (PPM) framework to understand the switching behavior of small- and medium-size enterprises (SMEs) of batik from adopting traditional marketing to e-commerce; and, second, to test whether the PPM variables prevent or lead to the switching behavior of SMEs of batik to adopt e-commerce. Design/methodology/approach This study uses a hypothesis which is drawn from related literature, quantifiable measures variables with a 1–5 Likert scale, hypothesis testing and draws the inference about a phenomenon of switching the behavior of SMEs from traditional marketing to e-commerce from the sample of 100 owners of batik SMEs, which are located in Yogyakarta, Solo and Pekalongan. The study used partial least square with the aid of the SmartPLS software program to test the hypothesis. Findings The result of hypothesis testing indicates that two factors significantly influence the switching behavior of batik SMEs from physical store retailing to e-commerce. The first factor is the desire of SMEs to support the information searching behavior of their customers, and the second factor is the perception that adopting e-commerce can provide value for the SMEs. However, this study fails to prove that the attractiveness of e-commerce can significantly pull the switching behavior of batik SMEs from physical store retailing to e-commerce. Moreover, related to mooring factors, the results show that the computer self-efficacy of the SME owners as a moderating effect is not supported. Research limitations/implications This study has several limitations. First, the samples were restricted to the SMEs of batik in three cities (Yogyakarta, Solo and Pekalongan). It is significant to conduct cross-sector, cross countries, cross-region or even cross-cultural investigations on this subject for better explanations of the results from a global perspective. Studies on cultural differences in switching behavior are supposed to accommodate to different individuals from the SME owner. Second, the study does not differentiate the sizes of enterprises; that is, no test was conducted for small-, medium- and large-size enterprises. The study only focuses on SMEs. Different empirical results may be obtained for different sizes because each enterprise size can have a different condition in e-commerce adoption. Second, this study pays more attention to the product categories of stamped batik and hand-drawn batik. Consumers can have dissimilar favorite channels to purchase other types of batik. Future research should also consider this issue. Practical implications Within all the opportunities available through e-commerce (support the information searching behavior, save the travel time and travel cost, better service quality to their customer, a lower price to their customer as well, and increase their sales), the SMEs need to enhance e-commerce activities and put it in their strategy for moving forward. On the other side, the government should have a strong interest in helping and supporting the SME through several activities. Social implications The research confirms that e-commerce adoption may benefit SMEs. It may encourage more SMEs to move from the traditional physical store retailing to e-commerce. Originality/value Although this study uses the conceptual model from the study of Chang et al. (2017), significant differences exist between the two studies. This study uses the PPM framework in the context of the seller migratory decision, whereas in most studies, the PPM framework is used in the context of the consumer migratory decision. Moreover, most studies about the adoption of e-commerce by owners of SMEs use the theory of reasoned action, theory of planned behavior, technology acceptance model, technology, organization and environment, and unified theory of acceptance and use of technology as the framework.

Subsequent Reaction to Online Advertisement Disturbance

The objective of this study is to examine subsequent reaction to online advertisements in information searching prior to product purchase. Total valid samples were 283, out of 300 surveyed respondents. The mobile phone is used in this study as objects. The informativeness of online advertisements including dimensions of price/promotion, service, design, and function are what respondents intend to view. For respondents in the ad-neutral cluster, price/promotion and service are factors valued more importantly. On the contrary, for respondents in the ad-annoyed cluster, design and function are more important factors than price/promotion and service in terms of information upon seeing online advertisements. The results indicate internet users are aware of online advertisements and understand the disturbance caused by online advertisements is unavoidable. When internet users are disturbed and the annoyance can be tolerated, the information searching behavior goes on. When internet users are disturbed and the annoyance cannot be tolerated, the information searching behavior is terminated. The effort of designing online advertisements ended up with users’ ignorance or termination can be wasted and useless. Marketers and advertisers not only try to attract attentions of online users with advertisements, but also need to restrict the annoyance or disturbance of online advertisements to an acceptable level to reduce the opportunities of being ignored or terminated.
