Location-based advertising (LBA) opens up new frontiers for marketers to place their advertisements in front of consumers. LBA is a new form of marketing communication that uses location-tracking technology in mobile networks to target consumers with location-specific advertising on their cell phones. It provides more targeted communication and interaction between the marketer and its potential customers. This paper reviews different aspects of LBA advertising and investigates the drivers of consumer acceptance toward it. Achieving this, a research framework is developed to explore the factors influencing consumer intention for using LBA in Iran. Individuals’ responses to questions about intention to accept/use of LBA advertising were collected and analyzed with various factors modified from UTAUT with main constructs of utility expectancy, trust, effort expectancy, and control. While the model confirms the classical role of utility expectancy and effort expectancy as the key factors in technology acceptance, the results also show that users’ behavioral intentions are influenced by trust and their control on ads flow.

Abstract. Social distancing received top priority during the COVID-19 crisis, resulting in new users of public digital services (PDS) with heterogeneous use motivation. While some users decided to use a PDS voluntarily and independently of COVID-19, others were forced to use PDS because of the COVID-19 lockdown. Based on technology acceptance models, we compared forced users ( N1 = 346) and voluntary users ( N2 = 315) using latent multigroup analysis. First-time users of a PDS ( N = 661) participated in the survey after reporting a crime online to the police. Results showed that forced and voluntary users differed regarding key factors (performance expectancy, effort expectancy, behavioral intention) and antecedents (system trust, ICT self-concept) of technology acceptance with less positive values for forced users. Further, forced users had stronger needs for system trust and usefulness (performance expectancy) than voluntary users, revealing user group-specific predictive values. The lessons learned for PDS design and marketing beyond pandemic times are discussed.

Potential Customers

Coupons have been used as a sales promotion tool for several decades. As mobile devices are increasingly becoming consumers' personal companions, the role of coupons is changing. Mobile coupons (i.e., coupons delivered via mobile devices) allow companies to deliver time- and location-specific offers to potential customers. Building on previous knowledge of traditional paper coupons and emerging research in mobile communication adoption, some scholars have applied attitudinal and technology-acceptance models to explore consumers' adoption of mobile coupons. Others have explored the design and mechanism of mobile coupons, or the role of mobile coupons as a unique marketing communication channel. In the near future, as consumers' adoption of mobile communication matures, we can expect research on mobile coupons to grow. The broader influences of this tool on consumer behavior merit further exploration.

End User Training

The purpose of this paper is to examine the role end-user training has on performance expectancy and effort expectancy, two variables associated with technology acceptance. The technology-based elements of the HIPAA security rules among oral surgeons were used for the study. The method of the investigation was a cross-sectional correlational study using a self-reported mailed questionnaire. The survey was created using preexisting scales from the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology. Results suggest end-user training is positively correlated with both performance expectancy and effort expectancy.

Acceptance Model

Digital economy is driven by 02 key factors – First is the mobile payment ecosystem driven by banks, commercial institutions, NBFCs. Second one is the ability of the user to adopt and use the mobile payment systems offered by the above. This paper examines the mobile payment technology adoption levels amongst urban users in India with specific focus on Chennai. The authors focuses on user-centric factors and evaluated the adoption based on UTAUT model to understand the user acceptance of mobile payment systems in urban India. UTAUT provides a useful tool for mobile payment companies to assess the likelihood of success of innovations, feature additions in their applications and helps them understand the drivers of acceptance to proactively design their marketing and design interventions. Our study will support managers is improving the adoption rate of mobile payments amongst late adopters amongst urban users.

In continuing studies on the role of viruses in biochemical transformation, Dr. Munyon has succeeded in isolating a highly infectious human herpes virus. Fluids of buccal pustular lesions from Sasha Munyon (10 mo. old) uiere introduced into monolayer sheets of human embryonic lung (HEL) cell cultures propagated in Eagles’ medium containing 5% calf serum. After 18 hours the cells exhibited a dramatic C.P.E. (intranuclear vacuoles, peripheral patching of chromatin, intracytoplasmic inclusions). Control HEL cells failed to reflect similar changes. Infected and control HEL cells were scraped from plastic flasks at 18 hrs. of incubation and centrifuged at 1200 × g for 15 min. Resultant cell packs uiere fixed in Dalton's chrome osmium, and post-fixed in aqueous uranyl acetate. Figure 1 illustrates typical hexagonal herpes-type nucleocapsids within the intranuclear virogenic regions. The nucleocapsids are approximately 100 nm in diameter. Nuclear membrane “translocation” (budding) uias observed.
