Abstract

An exploratory study of consumer acceptance of Internet banking (IB) services is conducted in a Turkish bank. Examines both consumer-related factors that may affect the adoption of an innovation or a product (such as complexity, perceived risk, and relative advantage) as well as organizational factors such as marketing effort. The results suggest that IB not only reduces operational cost to the bank, but also leads to higher levels of customer satisfaction and retention. Accordingly, it is argued that IB is strategically important to the banking sector in an emerging economy, such as in Turkey.

The adoption of empirical methods for secondary data analysis has witnessed a significant surge in IS research. However, the secondary data is often incomplete, skewed, and imbalanced at best. Consequently, there is a growing recognition of the importance of empirical techniques and methodological decisions made to navigate through such issues. However, there is not enough methodological guidance, especially in the form of a worked case study that demonstrates the challenges of imbalanced datasets and offers prescriptive on how to deal with them. Using data on P2P money transfer services, this article presents a running example by analyzing the same dataset using several different methods. It then compares the outcomes of these choices and explicates the rationale behind some decisions such as inclusion and categorization of variables, parameter setting, and model selection. Finally, the article discusses certain regressions models such as weighted logistic regression and propensity matching, and when they should be used.

Also, Polatoglu and Ekin (2001) pointed out that people with less experience in performing financial transactions over the Internet find it hard to use. Alajmi et al. (2018) highlighted the importance of trust in the clients' intent to adopt Internet banking while Begum and Jahangir (2008) noted that internet banking will likely be patronized if the perceived usefulness is high. ...
... Specifically, there is a weak significant relationship between the level of awareness of Internet banking and the level of usage. Ahmad and Bansal (2013) highlighted the study of Polatoglu and Ekin (2001), confirming that clients with high internet banking knowledge and skills find it easier to use the Internet facility. The results also relate to the study of Alzubi, Al-Dubai, Farea (2017), and Padachi, Rojid, and Seetanah (2007), which disclosed that the level of awareness has a significant relationship with intent and actual use of Internet banking services. ...

The Internet has transformed the face of banking in recent years. Client attitudes towards Internet banking depends on their perception of the services and the accompanying risks. Internet use has never been this indispensable, especially during lockdowns such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Hence, the study was undertaken to determine the factors that affect the level of usage of Internet banking services among depositors in Davao City, Philippines. A descriptive-correlational research design was employed to analyze the responses of 300 clients of five identified banks located within the first administrative district of Davao City. The survey data reveals that the respondents sometimes used Internet banking services; they considered themselves literate with Internet banking; they perceived Internet banking as convenient but were concerned about its service efficiency; they found Internet banking easy to operate but not that enjoyable; their priority concern was financial risk, followed by security and privacy. Findings further show a significant difference in the level of usage of Internet banking services when grouped by respondents’ age, DOI adopter classification, highest educational attainment, operating system used, and primary source of awareness. Finally, the level of awareness and perceived ease of use significantly predict the level of usage of Internet banking services. Lack of onsite bank transactions due to restrictions may force the banking public to use the internet to do their business. Banks may intensify their awareness campaign, further enhance their platforms, and address security and risk concerns to entice more clients to patronize Internet banking.

Purpose-The rapid emergence and acceptance of blockchain applications by investment professionals has made this study significant. The study aims to examine the degree of trust and acceptance of blockchain technology in the Indian financial services industry. Design/methodology/approach-The decomposed theory of planned behaviour (DTPB) model is investigated using responses from 200 investment professionals to an online survey on blockchain technology adoption, and partial least squares structural equation modelling using SmartPLS 3.0 is used to analyse the results. Findings-In general, the results support a DTPB and offer the best fit to the data. This study may have significant drawbacks in predicting blockchain technology's acceptance by investment professionals. Furthermore, the findings suggest that the research instruments used in this study, which engage users in business settings, are equally successful in the context of investment professionals. Research limitations/implications-In predicting blockchain acceptance by investing experts, this study may have significant drawbacks. Practical implications-As a result of TAM studies, it has been determined that perceived usefulness is more essential than perceived ease of use. Therefore, investment professionals may have discovered significant subjective normative impacts on behavioural intention. Management must devise techniques for implementing blockchain technology in digital financial services that are compatible with users' workplaces. Originality/value-Users may benefit from this research by concentrating on blockchain acceptance to improve digital banking services.

This is a review of the extant literature on the types of the Web 2.0 tools available, their use and perceivedusefulness by university undergraduate students for knowledge acquisition, construction and management. Some past worksrevealed that students found the Web 2.0 tools useful for knowledge construction and sharing and that the gainful use of thetools should be encouraged by stakeholders. The main objective of this work is to educate university undergraduate students onthe great learning and knowledge management possibilities offer by the Web 2.0 tools and to inform lecturers of the need toconsider and enquire into their students’ acceptance and perception of usefulness (or otherwise) of these educational toolsbefore integrating them into teaching and learning processes in so much that students will make an optimal and gainful use ofthem and hence prevent undue resistance to use from them. The authors concluded by making recommendations on how thestudents and lecturers could be motivated to make more academic use of Web 2.0 tools for veritable learning and teachingoutcomes and a furthered perceived usefulness of the tools. It was also suggested that governments and stakeholders shouldencourage the lawmakers to legislate functional educational technology policies, provide adequate funding (which is always aconstraint in developing countries) to procure modern, state of the art ICT infrastructure through which sustainable access to awider range of the Web 2.0 tools is given and seasonal training of teachers and students in the educational use of Web 2.0 toolsand other relevant technologies is promised. Adequate electrical power backup should also be assured so as to successfully,gainfully and sustainably use the Web 2.0 tools for knowledge creation, sharing and management.

Purpose This paper aims to examine whether financial technology is complementing the performance of domestic financial institutions or substituting their performance in Ghana. Design/methodology/approach The paper used data from the Bank of Ghana Payment System Statistics and Time Series Data of the Bank of Ghana from 2012 to 2021, by using autoregressive distributive lags estimation technique. Findings The results showed that in both the long run and short run, financial technology has a significant negative impact on bank performance, indicating that fintech serves as substitutes rather than complements for Ghanaian banks. These results suggest that there must be a critical review on the interoperability policy in Ghana and that banks should take advantage of the financial technology to increase profit. Originality/value Based on the authors’ study, no empirical work has been extensively done in the Ghanaian context by examining how financial technology serves as either a complement or substitute for domestic banking institutions. This paper focuses on exploring the key definition of financial technology in Ghana and how transactions through these media are affecting or improving the performance of banks.

Purpose This paper presents a decision-making framework for e-banking operations, based on the Quality Function Deployment and the Analytic Hierarchy Process. The main research question is the development of a framework and its potential contributions in supporting decision makers in implementing quality strategies that will encourage the usage of e-banking services (EBS). Design/methodology/approach The introduced framework comprises four distinct stages which include criteria determination, field surveys and EFA, QFD application including AHP and finally sensitivity analysis investigating the dynamic nature of the environment. AHP determines the intensity of the relationship between e-banking quality criteria and customer banking activities. A novel House of Quality (HoQ) is proposed, based on a market mix founded on key e-banking activities, and sensitivity analysis is used to investigate alternative scenarios. To illustrate the steps of applying this framework, the authors use a convenience sample from the Greek e-banking sector. Findings Through the illustrated example is supported that the proposed approach can reveal valuable information when contemplating strategies to improve e-banking usage and expand its acceptance. In addition, sensitivity analysis leads to purposeful insights regarding the effects of market segmentation and/or target settings on the ranking of e-banking quality/selection criteria provided by the HoQ. In the specific numerical example, the most critical quality factors were “Security and Reliability”, “Convenience”, “Design”, “Pricing” and “Skills,” although different rankings night well appear in different contexts or geographical regions. Moreover, sensitivity analysis showed that these results depend on the specific market mix and targets. As mentioned above, the implementation of the framework in different geographical regions or e-service sectors might certainly reveal different critical factors. Research limitations/implications Discussed in the paper body. Practical implications Discussed in the paper body. Originality/value The paper presents a well-defined four stage framework for improving EBS penetration. It utilizes a structured qualitative and quantitative approach and outlines and ranks e-banking quality factors stemming from the market mix and allows assessment of alternative scenarios through sensitivity analysis.

Internet banking is gaining a lot of momentum across the globe due to the safe and secure strategies of e-banking activities in India. The current study attempted to investigate the Impact of E-Banking Strategies on Customer Satisfaction in Selected Public and Private Sector Banks in India. Primary and secondary data are collected for analysis purposes. The primary data was collected from 1000 respondents (SBI 570 sample customers and KMBL 430 sample customers). To test the hypothesis, the mean, Standard Deviation and Coefficient of Variation are calculated for each e-banking strategy. The mean satisfaction of SBI and Kotak Mahindra Bank sample customers in terms of e-banking strategies or services was compared and found to be either negligible or the same. The State Bank of India (SBI) is India's largest public sector bank. As a result, SBI must exercise extreme caution in order to maintain its market position; otherwise, it will be forced to cede market share to other closely competing banks such as Kotak Mahindra Bank. As a result, it is suggested that banks improve their customer relationship management by establishing a rapport with customers at the branch level.
... It has been evidenced to affect consumer attitude and Regulating sharing platforms behaviour (Dillard et al., 2012;Ogbanufe and Kim, 2018), including in the context of collaborative consumption (Hallikas et al., 2002;Gu et al., 2021). Compared with traditional markets, LEMs can present greater perceived risk of potential losses to consumers (Yeh et al., 2012;Mukherjee and Nath, 2003), due to concerns of fraudulent charges and difficulties in the return process (Nui Polatoglu and Ekin, 2001). Risk control and management has therefore become an important question in sharing economy (Thakur and Srivastava, 2015;Dufva et al., 2017). ...

Purpose This paper aims to examine different types of sharing platforms based on risk perceptions of product/service providers and users, and to illustrate appropriate platform regulation preferences. Design/methodology/approach A survey was used ( N = 540) to collect data on platform participants’ risk perceptions and regulation preferences in the Chinese ( N = 263) and the US markets ( N = 277). Cluster analysis and multiple correspondence analysis were used to categorise platforms and match their regulation preferences with the risk characteristics. Findings The results show that i) four types of sharing platforms are categorised in terms of the risk perceived by the supply and demand side, and ii) four types of regulation preferences are clustered, drawing on the power and trust elements proposed from the slippery slope framework. Furthermore, coercive power regulation is favoured by participants of platforms with high supply risk and low demand risk, legitimate power regulation is preferred by actors of platforms with low supply risk and high demand risk, reason-based trust regulation is preferred by actors of platforms with high supply and demand risk, and implicit trust regulation is favoured by participants of platforms with low supply and demand risk. Research limitations/implications This paper develops an empirical typology of platforms based on risk perceptions of providers and users, and advances our understanding about lateral exchange markets from a consumer perspective. Practical implications This paper provides implications for platforms to regulate transactions through two mechanisms – the power of platforms and trust in platform participants. Originality/value Regulating by power ensures transaction security while regulating by trust enhances transaction efficiency, so it is important to configure the power and trust elements in platform regulation in an appropriate manner. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this paper is one of the first attempts at addressing platform regulation and shows how consumers’ risk perception of platforms can lead to important implications for theory and practice in marketing and better regulation of platform transactions.

... Security can be defined as 'the state of being free from danger and threat' the context of security used here is the amount of information which is secure and not shared with anyone without any prior permission and privacy can be defined as 'the state of being free from unwanted or undue intrusion or disturbance and it is the capacity of an individual or group to isolate themselves, or information about themselves' and thereby express themselves selectively. In many banking studies security and privacy has the significance towards the approval of internet banking (Johanson, 2016;Howcroft et al., 2002;Black et al., 2002;Polatoglu and Ekin, 2001;Giglio, 2002;Howcroft et al., 2002;Tan and Teo, 2000).

The paper describes the current state of Internet banking in India and discusses its implications for the Indian banking industry. Particularly, it seeks to examine the impact of Internet banking on banks’ performance and risk. Using information drawn from the survey of 85 scheduled commercial bank’s websites, during the period of June 2007, the results show that nearly 57 percent of the Indian commercial banks are providing transactional Internet banking services. The univariate analysis indicates that Internet banks are larger banks and have better operating efficiency ratios and profitability as compared to non-Internet banks. Internet banks rely more heavily on core deposits for funding than non-Internet banks do. However, the multiple regression results reveal that the profitability and offering of Internet banking does not have any significant association, on the other hand, Internet banking has a significant and negative association with risk profile of the banks. This research work was undertaken to ascertain the impact of Internet banking in Indian banks and evaluation of its effectiveness in the banking system. To put this study on a unique out look I’ve designed together information while personal questionnaires interaction was paid purely to areas of customers and cashiers of Indian bank and review of related literatures to the main themes and sub themes. It was ascertained that Internet banking has helped the banks to attain goals and objectives. KEYWORDS:internet banking, information technology,electronic transfers

Purpose This paper aims to examine the antecedents of adoption intention of profit-sharing investment deposits (PSID) among Moroccan customers. Design/methodology/approach Applying an extended version of diffusion of innovation (DOI) theory and using a non-probability sampling technique with convenience approach, a quantitative survey was developed and administered to 171 Islamic banking users. Structural equation modeling was then used to evaluate the significance of relationships between the various variables under study using SPSS 21.0 and AMOS 26.0 statistical packages. Findings Empirical findings of the structural analysis indicated a significant direct relationship between adoption intention and six out of seven variables: perceived relative advantage, perceived compatibility, perceived complexity, perceived risk, religiosity and social influence, all of which had a significant effect on Moroccan customers’ intention to invest their funds in profit-sharing based deposit instruments, whereas customer awareness exerted an insignificant positive effect. Research limitations/implications The absence of a longitudinal study tracking the actual adoption behavior is the main limitation of this study. Furthermore, data were collected solely from Islamic banking users. Finally, despite being insightful, the empirical findings should be generalized with caution since the sample was purposely selected by the banks’ management. Practical implications This study implied that participatory banks should pay substantial attention to risk perceptions, as PSID adoption intention is typically inhibited by high perceived risks associated with these products. Moreover, this study provides great indications to Moroccan regulators and policymakers on a number of issues related to this emerging business. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this paper represents the first attempt to confirm the effectiveness of the Rogers’ DOI in examining the intention to adopt a financial innovation in the Moroccan context. It is also the first of its kind to address customers’ apprehensions regarding profit-sharing investment products.

In light of the vital role of word-of-mouth (WOM) in ensuring the success of retail establishments, this study investigates the influence of self-service technology (SST) on customer WOM within the Australian retail sector. Utilizing the theory of planned behavior (TPB) and the technological acceptance model (TAM), we analyze this relationship. Our research underscores the pivotal role of SST satisfaction as a mediator, clarifying how perceived control, ease of use, and usefulness impact WOM intention. Furthermore, employing structural equation modeling, we discern that perceived ease of use, usefulness, and perceived control exert differential effects on both SST satisfaction and WOM intention. These findings hold practical significance for store managers looking to leverage SST for the enhancement of customer recommendations and the fortification of retail success.

Purpose The study investigates the influence of perceived security (PS) on behavioral intention (BI) via the trust attitude process and explores the moderating effects of gender. PS in mobile wallets enhances user trust (TR), attitude (ATT) and intention (INT). Using a multiple and serial mediation model, both TR and ATT were found to mediate the relationship between PS and BI. Design/methodology/approach Drawing on the stimulus-organism-response (S-O-R) theory, the proposed conceptual model comprises PS, TR, ATT and BI. An online survey was conducted with a cross-sectional sample of 744 mobile wallet users in India. Partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was used to analyze the hypothesized relationships and test the mediation effects. Findings Results show that the stimulus, PS, has a positive and significant influence on TR and ATT, which eventually has a positive influence on BI. The research model explains 64.4 percent of the variance in BI. Further, both TR and ATT independently and parallelly mediate the relationship PS and BI. Lastly, gender is found to moderate the relationship between TR and BI and ATT and BI. Practical implications The research showed the importance of PS, TR and ATT towards mobile wallet adoption INTs. Further, the findings support the idea that developing TR and ATT is essential for shaping INTs. This suggests that mobile wallet service providers should invest in methods that not just enhance user TR but also reinforce a positive ATT towards the platform. To demonstrate TR, mobile wallet providers must ensure the confidentiality and privacy of user data, keep customer interests in mind and fulfill commitments. Lastly, for strengthening customer TR, excellent customer support is extremely important. Originality/value While prior researchers have majorly used technology acceptance model (TAM) and unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) models to explain adoption INTs, this study examines the relationship between PS, TR, ATT and BI through the lens of the SOR framework.

Relatively little is known about micro‐ and macro‐level determinants of mobile phone ubiquitous system (MbUS) adoption by the manufacturing industry, such as is the case with the ready‐made garment (RMG) industry in Bangladesh. This research closes this gap, by presenting the adoption factors of MbUS in RMGs through applying the Rogers' Diffusion of Innovation theory and technology, organization, environment framework, to explore individual, technological, organizational, and environmental determinants of MbUS adoption. The study also reports on critical country level‐factors, organizational success factors and obstacles in MbUS adoption in RMGs. A qualitative method using interviews with the ready‐made garment (RMG) factory owners, managers, employees, and IT experts, suggests technological readiness, easily understandable MbUS technology, RMG capability, government intervention, and a supportive regulatory environment, were found to be macro‐level determinants of successful MbUS adoption. A survey was also conducted to explore the micro‐level customer‐centric factors, which found the relative advantages of MbUS, cost, the age of user's ( p < 0.000), and influence on intention to use MbUS. This paper also identifies MbUS as a technical solution for time‐critical information in RMGs, the competitive environment of RMGs, empowerment opportunities and countrywide demands to improve the RMG situation, are important adoption factors of MbUS rarely identified in prior literature. The findings will be of value to RMGs, government, and MbUS developers, to accelerate development of MbUS in Bangladesh. Furthermore, the findings have implications for other developing countries by improving the capacity of RMGs, while realizing their own development goals through mobile technologies.

Digital banking has become essential from the point of view of both the client and financial institutions. The restructuring of the banking sector is causing the closure of bank branches and the reduction of employees in search of greater profitability for the entities, which has caused an acceleration in client-entity relations through e-banking, being this type of non-face-to-face service vital for banking entities. This document analyzes a detailed review of the scientific literature on one of the most significant variables in the current field of banking marketing, digital loyalty, due to its contribution to obtaining competitive advantages and financial results. A bibliometric analysis and mapping of 209 publications on customer loyalty and e-banking from 1999 to 2022 have been executed. The Web of Science database was the one used for the conducted search. The results obtained group the most outstanding data of the systematic review of the loyalty variable within the field of digital banking: the antecedents of loyalty, the concepts with the greatest presence in the literature, and the most relevant sources and authors in this environment. This chapter presents the most important factors related to digital loyalty: satisfaction, quality of service, and trust. The work shows that these variables, which have been widely studied in a general way in the marketing field, also appear in the e-banking loyalty literature. However, there are few articles that relate all the variables in the same study, which indicates that it would be recommendable to continue investigating this topic in future research.KeywordsLoyaltyE-bankingSatisfactionTrustService qualityBibliometric analysis

Purpose The present work has proposed and employed an innovative hybrid method based on the combination of factor analysis and an artificial neural network (ANN) model to forecast customer satisfaction from the identified dimensions of service quality in India, a developing country. Design/methodology/approach The qualitative study is conducted with Internet banking users to understand e-banking clients' perceptions. The data is collected with the help of a questionnaire from randomly selected 208 customers in India. Firstly, factor analysis was performed to determine the influential factors of customer satisfaction, and four factors i.e. efficiency, reliability, security and privacy, and issue and problem handling were extracted accordingly. The neural network model is then applied to the factor scores to validate the key elements. Lastly, the comparative analysis of the actual ANN and the regression predicted result is done. Findings The success ability of the linear regression model is challenged when approximated to nonlinear problems such as customer satisfaction. It is concluded that the ANN model is a better fit than the linear regression model, and it can recognise the complex connections between the exogenous and endogenous variables. The results also show that reliability, security and privacy are the most influencing factors; however, problem handling and efficiency have the slightest effect on bank client satisfaction. Research limitations/implications This research is conducted in India, and the sample is chosen from the urban area. The limitation of the purposeful sampling technique and the cross-sectional nature of the data may hamper the generalisation of the results. Originality/value The conclusions from the study will be helpful for policymakers, bankers and academicians. To our knowledge, few studies used ANN modelling to predict customer satisfaction in the service sector

Digital financial inclusion has become an important way to reduce poverty and prevent poverty return; however, few studies examine the relationship between digital financial inclusion measurement with poverty return governance. Based on data from the 2017 China Household Financial Survey, we construct a digital financial inclusion indicator for micro‐households, and explore its impact on the risk of households returning to poverty and its mechanisms. Our findings suggest that digital financial inclusion can reduce the risk of Chinese families returning to poverty, and that it has heterogeneous effects on families and regions with different characteristics. The main function is to improve household income level by promoting entrepreneurship and employment, and to improve risk resistance by enhancing household financial market participation and household asset allocation. Further analysis shows that digital financial inclusion has structural effects, nonlinear effects, and substitution effects with private lending in poverty governance. This paper has implications for understanding and improving the poverty governance effectiveness of digital financial inclusion.

If service quality relates to retention of customers at the aggregate level, as other research has indicated, then evidence of its impact on customers’ behavioral responses should be detectable. The authors offer a conceptual model of the impact of service quality on particular behaviors that signal whether customers remain with or defect from a company. Results from a multicompany empirical study examining relationships from the model concerning customers’ behavioral intentions show strong evidence of their being influenced by service quality. The findings also reveal differences in the nature of the quality-intentions link across different dimensions of behavioral intentions. The authors’ discussion centers on ways the results and research approach of their study can be helpful to researchers and managers.

If service quality relates to retention of customers at the aggregate level, as other research has indicated, then evidence of its impact on customers' behavioral responses should be detectable. The authors offer a conceptual model of the impact of service quality on particular behaviors that signal whether customers remain with or defect from a company. Results from a multicompany empirical study examining relationships from the model concerning customers' behavioral intentions show strong evidence of their being influenced by service quality. The findings also reveal differences in the nature of the quality-intentions link across different dimensions of behavioral intentions. The authors' discussion centers on ways the results and research approach of their study can be helpful to researchers and managers.

Reports on the results and managerial implications of a Turkish study which investigated relationships between service quality, and customer satisfaction, complaint behaviour and commitment. Concludes that the ultimate success of any service quality programme implemented by a bank can only be gauged by creation and retention of satisfied customers. The role of customer-contact personnel in the attainment of these goals is of paramount importance. Therefore, in their efforts to deliver high quality services to their external publics (i.e. clients), banks should not ignore the specific needs of their internal publics, notably their customer-contact employees.

Getting an innovation adopted is difficult; a common problem is increasing the rate of its diffusion. Diffusion is the communication of an innovation through certain channels over time among members of a social system. It is a communication whose messages are concerned with new ideas; it is a process where participants create and share information to achieve a mutual understanding. Initial chapters of the book discuss the history of diffusion research, some major criticisms of diffusion research, and the meta-research procedures used in the book. This text is the third edition of this well-respected work. The first edition was published in 1962, and the fifth edition in 2003. The book's theoretical framework relies on the concepts of information and uncertainty. Uncertainty is the degree to which alternatives are perceived with respect to an event and the relative probabilities of these alternatives; uncertainty implies a lack of predictability and motivates an individual to seek information. A technological innovation embodies information, thus reducing uncertainty. Information affects uncertainty in a situation where a choice exists among alternatives; information about a technological innovation can be software information or innovation-evaluation information. An innovation is an idea, practice, or object that is perceived as new by an individual or an other unit of adoption; innovation presents an individual or organization with a new alternative(s) or new means of solving problems. Whether new alternatives are superior is not precisely known by problem solvers. Thus people seek new information. Information about new ideas is exchanged through a process of convergence involving interpersonal networks. Thus, diffusion of innovations is a social process that communicates perceived information about a new idea; it produces an alteration in the structure and function of a social system, producing social consequences. Diffusion has four elements: (1) an innovation that is perceived as new, (2) communication channels, (3) time, and (4) a social system (members jointly solving to accomplish a common goal). Diffusion systems can be centralized or decentralized. The innovation-development process has five steps passing from recognition of a need, through R&D, commercialization, diffusions and adoption, to consequences. Time enters the diffusion process in three ways: (1) innovation-decision process, (2) innovativeness, and (3) rate of the innovation's adoption. The innovation-decision process is an information-seeking and information-processing activity that motivates an individual to reduce uncertainty about the (dis)advantages of the innovation. There are five steps in the process: (1) knowledge for an adoption/rejection/implementation decision; (2) persuasion to form an attitude, (3) decision, (4) implementation, and (5) confirmation (reinforcement or rejection). Innovations can also be re-invented (changed or modified) by the user. The innovation-decision period is the time required to pass through the innovation-decision process. Rates of adoption of an innovation depend on (and can be predicted by) how its characteristics are perceived in terms of relative advantage, compatibility, complexity, trialability, and observability. The diffusion effect is the increasing, cumulative pressure from interpersonal networks to adopt (or reject) an innovation. Overadoption is an innovation's adoption when experts suggest its rejection. Diffusion networks convey innovation-evaluation information to decrease uncertainty about an idea's use. The heart of the diffusion process is the modeling and imitation by potential adopters of their network partners who have adopted already. Change agents influence innovation decisions in a direction deemed desirable. Opinion leadership is the degree individuals influence others' attitudes

The adoption of new products and services is of increasing importance to many industries. This is especially so for those organisations that are marketing technological innovations. In this paper a model of the perceived innovation attributes and the personal characteristics of adopters and non‐adopters was developed, based on literature and consumer research. These are then tested using a questionnaire concerned with the UK market for direct banking services. The results are presented in detail which indicate that the model presented is an excellent predictor of adoption behaviour. From these results a number of interesting implications have been highlighted for marketing practice.

This article examines three alternative procedures for analyzing multitrait-multimethod matrices: the Campbell-Fiske procedure, confirmatory factor analysis, and the direct product model. The implicit assumptions, as well as the strengths and weaknesses, of each approach are presented and their implications discussed. It is proposed that one should carefully examine model assumptions, individual parameters, and various diagnostic indicators, as well as overall model fits. The implications of these recommendations are illustrated through reanalyses of data from earlier studies of consumer behavior. Potentially misleading conclusions in these studies are corrected in demonstrations of the three procedures. The results show that methods often have multiplicative effects, a finding that supports the direct product model, which has not been previously used in consumer research. The need for multiple-method, multiple-measure approaches to research is highlighted by examining the limitations of single-method, single-measure approaches to theory testing.
