1 Introduction
Mobile banking is a financial transaction service innovation designed to facilitate customers in managing their banking
needs digitally. This technology enables various transactions to be carried out anytime and anywhere via mobile
devices (Yuliastanti, 2024). The rapid development of mobile banking aligns with the increasing accessibility of digital
financial services, allowing customers to conduct transactions without physically visiting a bank (Ho et al., 2020).
According to Akbar et al. (2023), In Sharing Vision 2023, the use of mobile banking increased significantly in 2022
compared to 2021, with a growth of over 150% in the past year. Additionally, 39% of Indonesians have opened digital
bank accounts, with projections reaching 100 million users by 2023, highlighting a major transformation in digital
financial services.
In response to this trend, Lembaga Perkreditan Desa (LPD), a community-based microfinance institution in Bali,
has started adopting mobile banking to enhance service efficiency. One LPD that has implemented this innovation is
LPD Desa Adat Kesiman through the M-Pise application. LPD Desa Adat Kesiman is the largest LPD in Denpasar,
with assets of IDR 424.1 billion and a profit of IDR 10.6 billion in 2023 (LPD Desa Adat Kesiman, 2023). With a total
of 16,941 voluntary savings customers, 1,694 credit customers, and 2,717 deposit customers, LPD Desa Adat Kesiman
holds significant potential for increasing digital service adoption. However, as of December 2023, only 855 customers
were using M-Pise, indicating a considerable gap between the total number of customers and mobile banking users
(LPD Desa Adat Kesiman, 2023).
Interviews with the Head of LPD Desa Adat Kesiman revealed that despite innovation efforts, the low adoption of
M-Pise remains a challenge. The main factors contributing to this low adoption include a lack of customer awareness,
perceived high administrative fees, and limited features compared to commercial bank mobile banking applications.
Additionally, technical issues such as differences in user experience between Android and iOS systems have also posed
challenges for customers (Prayudi et al., 2022).
Technology plays an increasingly crucial role in the financial sector, including mobile banking services, which
enable more efficient transactions. According to research by Kamble et al. (2019), the TAM is a reliable tool for
forecasting how people will react to new technologies. Abdennebi (2023) and Nair et al. (2024) are only two of the
previous studies that show how TAM might explain customers' willingness to adopt mobile banking. According to
TAM, two main aspects impact people's intentions to adopt technology: how beneficial it is and how easy it is to use
(Pahlawan et al., 2024).
Perceived utility reflects how much an individual believes that technology might enhance their performance
(Camilleri & Falzon, 2021). Madias et al. (2023), found that technology adoption is more likely when people perceive
more advantages from it. On the other hand, research by Budiastuti & Muid (2020) and Sandy & Firdausy (2021)
indicates that the perceived usefulness of technology may not directly impact the motivation to use it. The degree to
which a user perceives a system as being simple to browse and use is known as its perceived ease of use (Asmarina et
al., 2022). This factor can enhance technology adoption intentions (Putri et al., 2023), although some studies have
found conflicting results (Pambudi et al., 2023).
To extend the scope of TAM, this study incorporates the perceived trust variable, which plays a role in increasing
customer confidence in mobile banking services. Trust is considered to reduce perceived risk and enhance financial
technology adoption (Kumar et al., 2020; Subani & Roostika, 2024). However, other studies argue that perceived trust
does not always significantly influence technology adoption intentions (Naufaldi & Tjokrosaputro, 2020; Rifaldi et al.,
2021).
The inconsistencies in previous research findings highlight the need to introduce the mediating variable, attitude
toward using, to provide light on the connection between how people view technology's utility, usability, and
trustworthiness, as well as their desire to make use of it (Saparudin et al., 2020; Weng et al., 2018). It is thought that
these elements have a stronger impact on use intentions when people have a good attitude toward technology.
This study focuses on the adoption of M-Pise at LPD Desa Adat Kesiman as part of the digital transformation in
traditional village financial institutions. The adoption of this service has the potential to improve transaction efficiency,
financial transparency, and financial inclusion. Therefore, understanding the factors influencing M-Pise adoption
intentions is essential for providing strategic recommendations to enhance technology adoption in the future.
Based on the information provided, the main objective of this study is to find strategies that will attract more users
to M-Pise mobile banking, particularly those who are not yet acquainted with it. The Technology Acceptance Model,
in its enlarged form, is used in this investigation (TAM) that takes into account the perceived trust variable in order to
fill in the gaps in our knowledge about how people embrace new technologies.

Perceived utility, this research is to investigate the relationship between attitudes and behavioral intentions to utilize
M-Pise as it relates to perceived ease of use, perceived trust, and perceived reliability. This research also looks at how
those three traits and M-Pise desire are related, and how attitude toward using mediates that association. The study's
results could help LPD Desa Adat Kesiman come up with plans to boost mobile banking's share of digital service
usage.
Thus, the research hypotheses can be developed as follows:
According to Davis (1987), consumers' conviction that technology improves their performance is what the Technology
Acceptance Model (TAM) calls perceived usefulness. This view has a favorable effect on the desire to utilize the
technology, which impacts the desire to use M-Pise and similar digital money services. Rahmatika & Fajar (2019) and
Maharani & Sundari (2024) are among the studies that demonstrate that the perceived utility of an item increases the
desire to adopt it. M-Pise adoption is likely to increase since it generates a favorable attitude, and it promotes the
desire to utilize the technology behaviorally (Sukendro et al., 2020).
H1: Intention to utilize M-Pise is positively affected by perceived utility.
Perceived simplicity of use positively affects the propensity to utilize financial services and e-money, according to
studies by Pramiswari et al. (2022) and Rahmatika & Fajar (2019). According to Chen et al. (2024), the likelihood of
technology adoption is positively correlated with how easy it is to use. Perceived ease of use has a favorable effect on
the propensity to use mobile banking, according to research by Rido et al. (2023). Nair et al. (2024), also noted that
convenience and speed increase the likelihood that consumers would use a service.
H2: The desire to utilize M-Pise is positively affected by how easy it is seen to be to use.
An individual's faith in the technology they want to use is known as their perceived trust. Perceived trust positively
affects the desire to utilize technology, implying that increased trust leads to greater adoption intention, according to
research (Park & Yoon, 2022). Lai et al. (2024), found a strong correlation between trust and behavioral intention
regarding technology adoption. Users are more likely to utilize a service (Sa'adah et al., 2023) if they have faith in it
and feel safe disclosing personal information. When it comes to financial services, where safety is paramount, trust is
paramount in adopting technology (Kumar et al., 2020). According to Sankaran & Chakraborty (2021) and Pahlawan
et al. (2024), people are more likely to use financial services if they have a high degree of confidence in such services.
This suggests that people's level of trust in technology influences their willingness to adopt it (The study conducted by
Miraza et al., 2022).
H3: The likelihood that someone will actually utilize Introducing M-Pise
Rahmayanti et al. (2021) found that customers' positive sentiments about mobile banking are positively correlated with
their perceptions of the service's benefits. A favorable opinion of utilizing mobile banking is shaped by how easy it is
to use, according to TAM (Davis, 1987). Applications are more likely to be used if their perceived utility is high (Yao
et al., 2023). A favorable outlook on the advantages of mobile banking promotes the adoption of technology (Ly &
Ly, 2022). There will be a stronger desire to use it if its perceived advantages are substantial (Saputra & Darma, 2022).
H4: Belief in M-Pise's utility influences one's disposition toward its usage.
An individual's attitude toward utilizing a system is impacted by their judgment of how simple it is to use (Davis,
1987). An optimistic outlook is associated with user-friendliness (Chen et al., 2024). Both attitudes and intentions
toward using technology are positively impacted by its simplicity of use, according to research (Prastiawan et al., 2021;
Sukendro et al., 2020). It also significantly impacts technology adoption (Ariffin et al., 2021; Kejela & Porath, 2022).
H5: The attitude toward utilizing M-Pise is positively affected by how easy it is seen to be used.
How people feel about utilizing technology is greatly affected by how trusting they perceive it to be. Positivity and
the desire to use the service are outcomes of a high level of confidence in technology suppliers (Hermawan & Paramita,
2020; Juliana, 2023). Strong trust enhances comfort and security, promoting positive attitudes and continuous use
(Ariningsih et al., 2022; Prasetyo & Wardhani, 2022). Trust positively affects both attitude and intention to use
technology (Prasetya & Lestari, 2024).

A positive attitude toward using technology significantly influences intention to use. Research shows that favorable
evaluations of mobile banking enhance users' intention to adopt it (Wandira et al., 2022; Mata et al., 2024; Sebayang
et al., 2024). A positive attitude towards technology boosts the likelihood of continued usage and adoption (Saputra &
Darma, 2022; Setyawati, 2020).
H7: Attitude toward using has a positive influence on the intention to use M-Pise
According to Davis's (1987) Technology Adoption Model (TAM), two elements that influence technology adoption
are perceived usefulness and attitude toward utilization. The desire to use technology is influenced by perceived
usefulness, which mediates a favorable attitude (Zin et al., 2023; Mata et al., 2024). New technology is more likely to
be adopted as a result of this.
H8: A person's attitude toward utilizing M-Pise mediates the connection between their perception of its usefulness and
their desire to utilize it.
Perceived ease of use affects intention via attitude toward utilizing, according to Davis’s (1987) Technology
Acceptance Model (TAM). An individual’s attitude, which in turn predicts their desire to accept technology, may be
influenced by their favorable assessment of ease (Kamble et al., 2019). The technology adoption model (TAM) is a
useful tool for predicting people’s behavior with technology because it considers attitude as a mediator between
perceived ease and behavioral intention (Ly & Ly, 2022; Kumar et al., 2020).
H9: Perceived ease of use and intention to use M-Pise are mediated by attitude toward utilizing.
How people feel about using new technologies, such as mobile banking, is greatly affected by how confident they are
in these technologies. It is frequently the case that a user's attitude toward utilizing the system mediates the relationship
between confidence in the system's security and dependability and their desire to use, rather than the other way around
(Iqbal et al., 2022). What this implies is that the use of a reliable service inspires positivity, which in turn motivates
action. According to studies conducted by Hasan & Erni (2024), Ridanasti (2024), and Wulandari & Rauf (2022), the
level of trust has a direct correlation with the level of favorable attitude, which in turn increases the desire to embrace
the technology.
H10: M-Pise intention, perceived trust, and attitude toward utilizing are all mediated by attitude.

2 Materials and Methods
Research Methods
To determine what variables affect LPD Desa Adat Kesiman consumers' intentions to utilize M-Pise, this study takes
a quantitative approach using a survey-based research methodology. Customers of LPD who have a mobile device but
haven't used M-Pise yet make up the population. The sampling technique follows purposive sampling, a non-
probability method, by selecting respondents based on specific criteria, such as having an active LPD account, being
at least 17 years old, possessing a mobile device, and not yet using M-Pise. To meet the requirements of SEM-PLS,
the use of Partial Least Squares in Structural Equation Modeling, we followed the guideline of using 5 to 10 times the
number of indicators to estimate the sample size. Two hundred participants made up the sample. Data collection was
conducted through a structured questionnaire distributed both offline and online (Google Forms) to accommodate
different respondent preferences. Table 1

3 Results and Discussions
The study involved 200 respondents. The findings indicate that the majority of respondents are male (53.5%), reflecting
the predominant role of men in the social and economic structure of the Kesiman traditional community. The 3337
age group represented the largest proportion (52.5%), signifying that most of the customers are in a financially stable
phase, with responsibilities such as supporting families. Furthermore, a majority of respondents (65.5%) hold a
bachelor's degree, highlighting their awareness of financial management and openness to adopting digital financial
services. In terms of occupation, entrepreneurs made up the largest segment (40%), aligning with LPD’s role in
supporting micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). The income distribution shows that 48.5% of respondents
earn between Rp 3,500,000 and Rp 5,500,000 monthly, indicating that most customers are from small and medium-
sized businesses that face competition and high living costs in Denpasar.

Construct Validity and Reliability
Source: Data Processed, 2025
In Table 2, we can see that the convergent validity study was successful; all indicators had loading factors more than
0.70, which means that the model is valid. Table 3's cross-loading values show that discriminant validity has been
attained, meaning that each indicator accurately represents its latent variable. Discriminant validity is further supported
by the fact that the square root of the AVE is larger than the correlations of the other latent variables. All of the model's
constructs have AVE values greater than 0.50, indicating good discriminant validity (Ghozali & Kusumadewi,

reliability. Hence, it is safe to say that these factors are quite reliable.
Table 3
Cross-Loading Test Results
(Source: Data Processed, 2025)
The R-squared (R²) values were used to evaluate the structural model. These values reveal the model's ability to explain
the data and its overall fit to the data. A total of 0.747 R² values indicate that the factors of perceived utility, perceived
simplicity of use, and perceived trust account for 74.7% of the variation in attitude toward usage. Similarly, both the
attitude toward using and the behavioral intention to use had values of 0.760. indicating that the same factors
explained 76% of the variation in this construct.

In addition to R², the model's predictive relevance was assessed using the Q-square (Q²) value. The resulting
score of 0.939 exceeds the minimum threshold of zero, it proves the model can make accurate predictions model's
components seem to account, either directly or indirectly, for around 93.9% of the variation in the behavioral intention
to use M-Pise at LPD Desa Adat Kesiman.
The significance of the correlations between constructs was evaluated using the hypothesis testing method, using
the p-value statistic. Statistical significance is defined as a correlation with a p-value lower than 0.05, and non-
significance as a correlation with a p-value greater than 0.05.

Hypothesis Testing
(Source: Data Processed, 2025)
To test hypotheses, using the Partial Least Squares (PLS) method, we examined the magnitude and direction of the
correlations among the variables included in the research model. What follows are the main findings. Hypothesis 1
was supported by the fact that perceived usefulness had a positive effect on the intention to utilize M-Pise (β = 0.185,
p = 0.025). Perceived ease of use and intention to use were strongly positively correlated (β = 0.234, p < 0.001), lending
credence to the second hypothesis. As shown by a very significant β = 0.230 and p = 0.006, hypothesis 3 was supported
by the favorable impact of perceived trust on behavioral intention. Supporting hypothesis 4, the statistically significant

perception affects M-Pise adoption?. International Research Journal of Management, IT and Social Sciences,

87
findings of the correlation test between perceived usefulness and attitude toward using M-Pise were (β = 0.478, p <
0.001).
There was a high relationship (β = 0.250, p < 0.001) between how easy something was to use and how one felt
about using it, which supports hypothesis 5. This lends credence to hypothesis 6, as attitude was significantly affected
by perceived trust (β = 0.209, p = 0.001). Furthermore, the intention to utilize M-Pise was strongly influenced by
attitude toward its usage (β = 0.311, p < 0.001), thereby validating hypothesis 7.
The mediator between behavioral intention, perceived trust, perceived ease of use, and reported usefulness was
attitude toward usage, which was also examined in the research. Indirect β = 0.149, p = 0.001; the results demonstrated
that attitude tempered the influence of perceived usefulness on behavioral intention, lending credence to hypothesis 8.
Showing that one's attitude acts as a mediator between their aim and their perception of how easy it is to use, the study's
findings provided support for hypothesis 9 (indirect β = 0.078, p = 0.015). In a similar vein, hypothesis 10 was
supported by the fact that perceived trust significantly impacted behavioral intention via attitude (indirect β = 0.065, p
= 0.004).
According to Hair et al. (2017), all mediation channels are considered to be part of complementary partial mediation
since there are both direct and indirect effects that are relevant. Attitude toward use boosts perceived trust, perceived
ease of use, and perceived benefit, which are the three antecedents of behavioral intention.
Particularly for mobile banking services, this study's findings provide light on user intention in technology
adoption. According to the results, the user's attitude, which impacts the choice to embrace the technology, is heavily
influenced by their perceptions of the technology's utility, simplicity of use, and trustworthiness. The significance of
attitude in amplifying the impact of these critical components is underscored by its mediating function.
From a managerial perspective, these findings offer strategic direction for LPD Desa Adat Kesiman in promoting
M-Pise adoption. Improving perceived usefulness can be achieved by enhancing features that boost efficiency and
convenience, accompanied by user training programs. Maintaining a user-friendly interface will support perceived
ease of use, especially among less tech-savvy users. To build trust, transparent policies and secure data management
must be emphasized. Fostering positive attitudes can be supported by promoting M-Pise as a practical tool for daily
life. Lastly, raising awareness and offering user incentives may further increase behavioral intention. Together, these
strategies can support the organization’s digital transformation efforts.
4 Conclusion
This study aimed to examine the elements that impact LPD Desa Adat Kesiman consumers' intent to download the M-
Pise mobile banking app. This model relied on a refined adaptation of TAM. Perceived reliability, usability, and
simplicity of the software, according to the study, and usefulness all significantly affect users' attitudes and intentions
to use the app. The impact of these characteristics on behavioral intention was further amplified by the finding that
attitude toward using acted as a partial mediator.
In light of these findings, several practical recommendations are proposed for LPD Desa Adat Kesiman. To enhance
perceived usefulness, the institution should consider optimizing transaction verification mechanisms, such as
incorporating one-time password (OTP) systems, to minimize transaction errors. Improving perceived ease of use
could involve the addition of categorized transaction features that assist users in organizing their financial activities.
Perceived trust may be increased by introducing additional layers of security, including reconfirmation steps and
biometric authentication (e.g., fingerprint or facial recognition).
To foster a more positive attitude toward using M-Pise, it is recommended to develop interactive educational
initiatives. These may include simulations, tutorial videos, social media engagement strategies, and leveraging
testimonials from satisfied users or local influencers. These efforts could enhance user confidence and promote
engagement.
Future research is encouraged to broaden the scope of the study by incorporating additional predictor variables and
expanding the population beyond LPD Desa Adat Kesiman. Comparative analyses across multiple financial institutions
may also provide insights that enhance the external validity and generalizability of the findings. Finally, the research
highlights that users' intentions to utilize mobile banking services are strengthened when their evaluations of their
utility, simplicity of use, and trust are raised. Therefore, continuous improvement in service design, user interface
simplification, robust security features, and consistent user education efforts are essential to drive wider adoption of
the M-Pise application.

ChatGPT stands out among other AI technology tools to provide assessment support in the higher education context. This exploratory study investigates the motivators and barriers which influence the use intention of ChatGPT for assessment support among undergraduates in Hong Kong. We tested the adapted and extended UTUAT model using the structural equation modeling approach. Through self-report online questionnaire, we received usable responses from 483 undergraduates of eight Hong Kong universities. In a highly competitive Chinese context, assessment results hold immense significance in determining the value and merit of students. The findings reveal that trust acts as the strongest determinant while moral obligation and perceived risk serve as major inhibitors to students’ acceptance of ChatGPT in assessments. Perceived risk does not mediate the relationship between trust and students’ behavioral intention. Both performance expectancy and effort expectancy positively influence behavioral intention to use ChatGPT for assessment support. However, social influence is found to be statistically insignificant. The results contribute to the education literature by extending the adapted UTAUT model with additional variables for ChatGPT adoption in the assessment context. They offer practical insights to promote ethical and optimal use of ChatGPT in the higher education context.

Leveraging two prominent theories of technology adoption in firms, this study examines the organizational determinants of the adoption intensity of artificial intelligence (AI) and its effects on firms’ performance, under the moderating effects of technological turbulence. To conduct this study, a unique dataset was compiled via a survey of US-based managers involved with technology and AI adoption in high-tech goods and services, leading to 226 usable responses. Structural Equation Modeling was then applied to test the proposed model. The findings uncover the influence of technological, organizational, and environmental factors on the firms’ AI adoption intensity. Additionally, a positive correlation is observed between AI adoption intensity and firms' performance. Lastly, technological turbulence emerges as a crucial environmental factor moderating the effects of antecedents on AI. Given the feeble adoption of AI in firms despite its documented role in firms’ success, the current study can offer a road map to successfully implementing AI in firms and, thus, improving their performance.

This study aims to determine the effect of perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, and perceived enjoyment on the intention to continue using investment applications in Indonesia. This research uses the TAM model with the novelty of examining perceived enjoyment in investment applications. Survey was administered involving 328 respondents who had ever made transactions purchasing investment products on investment applications. Data were analyzed by SEM using the JASP application. This research was conducted by analyzing the results of questionnaires from 328 respondents who had made investment product purchase transactions in investment applications. This study uses JASP as a tool for conducting SEM analysis. This study shows that perceived usefulness and perceived enjoyment have a positive and significant effect on intention to continue using. Meanwhile, perceived ease of use has a positive and significant effect on perceived usefulness and perceived enjoyment. However, perceived ease of use has a negative and insignificant relationship to intention to continue using directly. The most significant effect on intention to continue using is perceived enjoyment. Therefore, companies need to pay attention to things that are directly related to perceived enjoyment to make consumers continue to use investment applications.

Digital transformation (DT) is a strategic priority for commercial banks in China. It is important to explore the relationship between DT and bank systemic risk to maintain financial stability and promote high-quality development of banks. Based on the data of China's listed commercial banks from Q3 2010 to Q1 2022, this paper empirically tests the influence mechanism, heterogeneity influence and action channels of DT on bank systemic risk. This paper finds that DT reduces the bank systemic risk. The higher the degree of DT, the lower the bank systemic risk. Innovation effect and cost effect play multiple mediating roles in the reduction of bank systemic risk by DT. The innovation of bank products, sales channels, organizations and other aspects to enhance the competitiveness and income of banks, while reducing the information asymmetry between the supply chain and the industrial chain, taking cost and risk sharing, reduces the bank systemic risk. This paper enriches the research on the impact of bank DT on systemic risk and provides empirical support for bank risk management.

The economic position of a city is crucial for the sustainability of regional economic development. To enhance competitiveness and achieve economic excellence, a combination of simultaneous drivers is necessary. As the core city of the Kedungsepur agglomeration, Semarang City plays a strategic role in regional development. This study employs a quantitative methodology, utilizing the Location Quotient (LQ) technique with data sourced from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS). The findings indicate that Semarang City's economic transformation, characterized by competitiveness and specialization in the trade, real estate, and public service sectors, requires support from surrounding regions to maximize its role in driving sustainable economic growth. Additionally, the study identifies the city's prime sectors—trade, real estate, public services, and transportation and warehousing—highlighting their contribution to generating high-added value amid global economic dynamics. Despite its economic diversification, Semarang City remains heavily reliant on the manufacturing industry due to its substantial sectoral contribution. Therefore, while manufacturing remains a key pillar of the local economy, identifying new growth potentials and fostering collaborative strategies within the agglomeration area is essential for long-term economic resilience. Semarang City possesses significant potential for sustainable growth by distributing the benefits of development to its surrounding regions, reinforcing its role as a regional economic driver.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to identify the relationship between collaborative innovation and the financial performance of information technology (IT) firms through the mediating role of strategic agility and absorptive capacity. Customer knowledge management capability (CKMC) is also explored as a potential moderator. Design/methodology/approach Data were collected from 300 respondents working in different small to medium IT enterprises operating in different cities around Portugal. The simple random sampling method was used for data collection, and Smart partial least squares-structural equation modeling (Smart PLS-SEM version 3.2.8) was used to test the hypotheses. Findings The findings demonstrate that collaborative innovation contributes significantly to the financial performance of IT firms in Portugal. The results also indicate that absorptive capacity and strategic agility both positively and significantly affect the relationship between collaborative innovation and firms’ financial performance. However, while the moderating role of CKMC has a positive and significant effect on the relation between collaborative innovation and strategic agility, CKMC insignificantly moderates the relation between collaborative innovation and absorptive capacity. Originality/value Few studies have explicitly connected collaborative innovation with firms’ financial performance; this study attempts to fill that gap. Moreover, this research investigates the mediating role of strategic agility and absorptive capacity in the relationship between collaborative innovation and financial performance. Finally, by discussing the moderating effect of CKMC, which leads to enhanced financial performance, this study proposes that when complex and unpredictable situations occur, managers should focus on customer-oriented strategies and innovation at the same time to outpace their competitors.
