Consumer decision making in mobile-banking service selection
This paper reports on the findings of a study of 267 consumers on the first order selection criteria within a decision making model that utilizes the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to evaluate mobile banking service selection. The AHP analysis of the first order selection criteria for the full data sample identified ‘Time Saving’ as the highest ranked factor followed by ‘Control’ then ‘Any Place’ and lastly ‘Cost’. The survey also reports on consumer usage patterns for internet and mobile services as well as exploring their experiences with mobile banking services
Adoption of New Technology
The contribution of new technology to economic growth can only be realized when and if the new technology is widely diffused and used. Diffusion itself results from a series of individual decisions to begin using the new technology, decisions which are often the result of a comparison of the uncertain benefits of the new invention with the uncertain costs of adopting it. An understanding of the factors affecting this choice is essential both for economists studying the determinants of growth and for the creators and producers of such technologies. Section II of this article discusses the modeling of diffusion and Sections III to V explore the determinants of diffusion and the evidence for their importance.
The State of e-Banking Implementation in Nigeria: A Post-Consolidation Review
The most widely used e-Banking instrument in �igeria is e-Payment, particularly the automatic teller machine
(ATM) card. However, with the adoption of e-Banking by all the banks in �igeria, the volume of cash in circulation
has continued to increase pre-and-post bank recapitalization/consolidation exercise. Furthermore, some of the 25 banks that survived the exercise were found lately to have depleted their capital base and have lost credibility before the consumers, e-Banking implementation notwithstanding.
Therefore, in this paper, we review the state of e-Banking implementation in �igeria and evaluate the influence of
trust on the adoption of e-Payment using an extended technology acceptance model (TAM). Similarly, we
investigate organizational reputation, perceived risk and perceived trust in the management of banks as a factor for
enhancing customer loyalty.
The findings in this work reveal that perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness are not only antecedent to ebanking
acceptance, they are also factors to retain customers to the use of e-banking system such as organizational
reputation, perceived risk and trust
The Mediation Effect of Trusting Beliefs on the Relationship Between Expectation-Confirmation and Satisfaction with the Usage of Online Product Recommendation
Online Product Recommendations (OPRs) are increasingly available to onlinecustomers as a value-added self-service in evaluating and choosing a product.Research has highlighted several advantages that customers can gain from usingOPRs. However, the realization of these advantages depends on whether and towhat extent customers embrace and fully utilise them. The relatively low OPR USAgerate indicates that customers have not yet developed trust in OPRs’ performance.Past studies also have established that satisfaction is a valid measure of systemperformance and a consistent significant determinant of users’ continuous systemusage. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the mediation effect of trustingbeliefs on the relationship between expectation-confirmation and satisfaction. Theproposed research model is tested using data collected via an online survey from626 existing users of OPRs. The empirical results revealed that social-psychologicalbeliefs (perceived confirmation and trust) are significant contributors to customersatisfaction with OPRs. Additionally, trusting beliefs partially mediate the impactof perceived confirmation on customer satisfaction. Moreover, this study validatesthe extensions of the interpersonal trust construct to trust in OPRs and examinesthe nomological validity of trust in terms of competence, benevolence, andintegrity. The findings provide a number of theoretical and practical implications.
