PurposeThis study has a principal objective of exploring and analyzing the factors affecting adoption or acceptance of eco-friendly electric vehicles in India.Design/methodology/approachPrimary data were gathered through a predesigned questionnaire from 355 vehicle owners of Delhi using simple random sampling method. Statistical softwares like SPSS and AMOS were used to analyze the primary data collected for the study. Statistical techniques like exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling were usesd to infer a meaningful conclusion from the investigation.FindingsThrough this study, a statistically significant relationship between environmental concern, knowledge of EV, subjective norm and attitude toward electric vehicle were investigated. Similarly attitude is responsible for a significant variation in adoption decision.Practical implicationsThe findings of the present study underscore the requirement for marketers to build up a systematic strategy for easier adoption of electric vehicles in India. On account of this, this study developed a model of potential determinants of adoption decision toward EVs in India, based on statistically significant evidences.Originality/valueThis study adds to the body of literature by exploring and testing the factors affecting the adoption of eco-friendly products like electric vehicle that were not emphasized earlier in Indian context and second by growing theoretically consistent operationalization for the marketing of electric vehicles. These upgrades brought about a last model with an unrivaled illustrative power.

Global coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The disease was first identified in December 2019 in Wuhan, the capital of China’s Hubei Province, and has since spread globally, resulting in the ongoing 2019–2020 coronavirus pandemic that has an impact which would be disturbed the personal productivity in the community. The dependent variable which is threat of COVID-19 (Thr_Cov-19), vulnerability of COVID-19 (Vul_Cov-19), and the unexpected change in society factors and one independent variable that is personal disturbance factors is used in this paper. Moreover, using as an indicator which will determine disturbance of personal productivity (D_PP) in the society. Since multiple regression by partial least square-structural equation modeling is used to examined of data by following unstructured method. Moreover, the resulting point out three dependent variables significantly influences on the independent variable of personal productivity in the society. As a matter of fact, this study concludes the foremost influence factor on D_PP in society due to COVID-19 risk factors such as Thr_Cov-19, Vul_Cov-19, and unexpected changed in the society factors. This study contributes to introductory study but vibrant understanding in stimulating the prediction of personal productivity in the society due to the COVID-19 attacks.

Digital finance provides an ideal entrepreneurial environment for returning migrant workers (RMWs). From the perspective of entrepreneurs, many scholars have quantified the factors affecting entrepreneurship, as well as the entrepreneurial environment, theorized the importance, motives, and internal/external impactors of RMW entrepreneurship, and put forward quite a lot of countermeasures. This paper innovatively evaluates how digital finance influences the efficacy of RMW entrepreneurship. Firstly, the authors established an influencing factor analysis model and an RMW entrepreneurship model and explained principles for the structural equation modeling of the influence of digital finance on RMW entrepreneurship efficacy. Next, the traditional partial least squares (PLS) regression was optimized, the optimal initial iteration values (IIVs) were obtained, and the algorithm convergence was achieved. Finally, a multilayer structural equation model (SEM) was constructed to evaluate the influence of digital finance on RMW entrepreneurship efficacy. The proposed algorithm and model were proved valid and feasible through experiments.

Ensuring the confidence of customers and other stakeholders, LPD requires an internal control system, presentation of financial statements and accountability. The purpose of this research is to know the implications of the internal control system and the presentation of financial statements to accountability. This study used quantitative method, population of 149 LPD that is still operating and selected 60 lpd samples in Buleleng Regency.  Questionnaire as an instrument to collect research data. The analysis technique used is SEM (Structural Equation Modeling) with PLS (Partial Least Square) method. Based on the first hypothesis it appears that the relationship between internal control system variables and accountability of parameter coefficients 0.364 with a statistical t value of 4.056 greater than the table t value of 1,960 (4,056>1,960). Similarly, the second hypothetical relationship between the presentation of financial statements has a parameter coefficient value of 0.525 with a statistical t value of 6.362 greater than the table t of 1,960 (6,362>1,960). Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the internal control system is positively related to accountability, and the presentation of financial statements relates positively to accountability.

Currently, the transition to a circular economy is becoming a development trend of many countries around the world to cope with climate change and reduce carbon emissions. Vietnam is also one of the countries in the process of taking steps to transition to a circular economy. However, to make a successful transition to a circular economy, citizen participation is essential. Thus, the question is, are people ready to participate in the circular economy? Therefore, this study surveyed 431 people regarding their willingness to participate in the circular economy based on the theory of planned behavior and the structural equation model. The results of empirical research have shown that the factors attention to the environment, and attitude towards intention are the factors that have a strong impact on willingness to participate in the circular economy. Based on the given influencing factors, the authors make some policy suggestions for the Vietnamese government in the transition to a circular economy.

This research focuses on the influence of social factors on the sustainability of hospitality industry in the context of Qatar. The significance of this research lies in its ability to empirically study the impact of social factors on the sustainability of hospitality industry in Qatar. The hypotheses building has been through the process of finding evidence through the theoretical models available in the literature for the linkages between the various social factors and sustainability. While there are several social factors which influence sustainability of any business in general, the ones which are most relevant to the hospitality industry are: Education, Life Expectancy, Income, TV index, Newspaper index, and PC index.  Structural Equation Modeling using Partial Least Square Method was used as the research methodology. This method was specifically chosen for its ability to undertake factor analysis and regression analysis simultaneously and address the issue of multi-collinearity. The sample size of 213 managers was chosen from various hotels.  The results based on the hypothesis testing would lead to the implications and also suggestions for the benefit of the hotel managers, so that sustainability of hospitality industry could be ensured.

This study is among the first attempts to provide an understanding of factors affecting students’ intention to choose the joint programs for undergraduate education in Vietnam in the time of new normal context (i.e. COVID-19 pandemic). A questionnaire-based survey was employed to collect data from high school and undergraduate students. The Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method is used to analyze the data collected. Overall, results show that the joint programs that are attractive to Vietnamese students/pupils should have international standardized content, include subjects that are highly applicable, qualification of teaching staffs. In terms of COVID-19 pandemic effect, the COVID-19 pandemic increases the probability of student choosing joint programs. This finding predicts that there may be a significant drop in the number of students studying the joint programs in Vietnam after the COVID-19 is under control as they may go to study abroad.
