This study aims to investigate the effect of loss aversion, regret aversion, and market factors, on investment decision making with the moderating role of locus of control. Data collection is done by distributing questionnaires. The survey was conducted on individual investors in the Indonesia Stock Exchange in Jakarta to obtain a sample of 281. This research uses the Structural Equation Modeling approach. The statistical tool used is LISREL 8.8. This study found that loss aversion, regret aversion, and market factors significantly influence investment decision making. Locus of control plays the role of moderation between loss aversion, regret aversion, market factors, and investment decision making. The novelty in this study reveals the research that needs to be done to encourage investors to make rational decisions and control the required rate of returns through their locus of control. This research helps investors to make decisions logically and rationally with an open mind, high-performance thoughts and positive actions for investment goals that produce positive returns.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to find out whether risk perception can affect rapidity in international market entry. Also, this paper tries to find out whether the decision-making approach, effectuation, can moderate the pathway between risk tolerance and internationalization speed. Design/methodology/approach A hypothetico-deductive methodology has been used to conduct this study. Using partial least square regression, this study tested and proved two developed hypotheses based on a sample of 101 software and IT-enabled services firms in Bangladesh. The sample was selected using non-probability sampling techniques, and data were collected using a structured questionnaire developed from the extant literature. Findings All of the hypotheses proposed in this study have been accepted. The results show that the effectual approach of decision-making negates the risk perception of the entrepreneur and speeds up the internationalization process of that firm. Research limitations/implications The implications of this study are inherent in the entrepreneurial cognition and decision-making approach (effectuation). This study provides an insight into risk perception and the rapidity of internationalization, which can spur future development in this field. Originality/value Rapidity in internationalization of small- and medium-sized enterprises depends on a significant number of factors, one of which is the decision-making approach. The decision-making approach followed by the firms can have an effect on the speed of internationalization. This paper connects the dots between the rapidity of entry to foreign markets with a cognitive variable, risk perception. This paper developed two hypotheses to measure the relationship between risk perception of the entrepreneurs and the rapidity in international market entry with moderation of the decision-making approach.

Investment decision making is a complex process that depends on several factors that vary from one individual to another. Regardless of the type of decision that is made in life, people behave differently. To distinguish between risk tolerance and risk perception, we must first define risk. Risk is, of course, uncertainty about the result. Any decision that casts doubt on at least one of the possible outcomes is risky. Perception is the assessment of a level of risk which usually involves an understanding of the situation, that is, there is an explanation for objective reality. Risk tolerance is the level at which an individual is willing to accept the risks associated with investments. This paper determines the relation between risk perception, risk tolerance and investment behaviour using inferential statistical analysis and draws the conclusions from the obtained results

Purpose The purpose of this study are: to study the difference between halal awareness and halal certified awareness, and the relationship between the two variables; to study the differences in knowledge about halal and halal certified, as well as their relationship with halal awareness and halal certified awareness; and to build and test research models regarding factors that affect certified halal awareness. Design/methodology/approach The target population is Muslims who live in Indonesia and are 18 years old or more. The self-administered survey method is carried out based on a purposive sampling technique. The authors collect data from 428 Muslim respondents in Indonesia through an online survey. This study applies the partial least square–structural equation model to examine causal relationships and test hypotheses. Findings This study reveals several results: halal awareness is a different concept from halal-certified awareness; knowledge of halal is a different concept from knowledge of halal certificates; awareness is an outcome of knowledge, but knowledge is not an outcome of awareness; halal awareness has a significant effect on halal-certified awareness; knowledge about halal certificates has a significant effect on halal-certified awareness, but knowledge about halal does not have a significant effect; knowledge of halal certificates is not influenced by knowledge of halal and halal awareness; and exposure and religious commitment have a significant role in increasing knowledge and awareness. Originality/value Research that explores the difference between halal awareness and halal certified awareness, and Muslim knowledge about halal and halal certified, especially in the context of halal-certified food, is still very limited in the literature provided, if not unavailable. Furthermore, this study also builds and tests research models regarding the factors that affect certified halal awareness, which is limited or may not have been found in the literature.
