Dear community,
I am currently doing my Master thesis on measuring adoption intention based on UTAUT2. I have read through several likewise empirical studies and their survey items, however, aside from the fact that the original UTAUT2 survey items (Venkatesh et al., 2012) use standalone sentences (e.g. "I find e-vehicles easy to use"), there is no clear information on whether it is appropriate to use comparative statements (e.g. "I believe using e-vehicles are more convenient than ICE vehicles").
I haven't found any study that touches on this topic. It would be of great help if anyone has sources or knowledge on it.
Thank you!

Capitalism views consumption—within the sphere of economic activity—as a driving factor for production, where other economic roles are subsequently activated. However, the consumer is not isolated from their intellectual and cultural backgrounds when exhibiting any type of behavior. During consumption, numerous psychological, physical, and intellectual considerations interact to determine the type, quantity, and manner of consumption. Here, we can discuss the ethical consumer, whom we define from the perspective that the individual is free and conscious during their economic activity. This is the consumer who takes ethical aspects into account in their consumption behavior, starting from the intention to purchase, through the method of consumption, and then the manner of disposing of product remnants. Can we then pose the question: Are religious individuals more ethical in their consumption of goods and services compared to those for whom religion does not play a significant role in their lives? This is based on the premise that religions have called upon humans, in their sacred texts, to be ethical in all their actions, among which consumption is one

Artificial Intelligence(AI) has caused a global stir, pushing the boundaries of what was once thought impossible. Problems that were previously considered unsolvable are now being approached as challenges within reach, suggesting that humanity may be on the verge of a major breakthrough. It is fascinating that while humans have developed systems capable of swiftly answering any question, we still struggle to understand complex concepts like "intention".
What is intention? Where does it originate? Does intention follow observation, or does it precede it, with observation coming afterward? These are questions that AI has yet to answer, and despite thousands of scientific investigations, the mystery remains unresolved.
Is it conceivable that AI will be capable of solving this mystery and providing answers to these questions soon?
What are your perspectives on this?

I am currently doing a study where I try to model the theory of planned behavior via structural equation modeling. I have longitudinal data (4 waves) with items assessing behavior so I want to include a cross-lagged effect from intention in one wave on behavior in the following wave. My problem is that I don't know if I should model the effects of attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioral control (predictors) on intention within the same wave or if these predictors should have an effect on intention in the following wave. I'm leaning towards the first option since it makes sense to me that the effects of the predictors on intention would be immediate (e.g. if I already have a positive attitude towards a behavior it wouldn't take until the next wave to have the intention to do it). Unfortunately, I couldn't find any information on whether the effects of the predictors on intention are immediate or not. The original papers by Ajzen didn't give me a concrete answers and almost all of the longitudinal studies I looked at model the predictors and intention within the same wave without explicitly justifying an immediate effect.
Does anyone have an idea how an immediate effect could be justified or can cite useful papers on this topic?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
My intention is to do an ELISA with brain homogenate coated on the base of a plate -> Adding a sample that might have antibody that binds to the homogenate -> Add a secondary and look for binding
Despite finding binding in westernblot, I fail to see any signal on ELISA. It seems to me that it is being washed away and not being coated well. There is no issue when I use purified protein. I use coating buffer and NUNC non sterial ELISA plates - coat for 16-20 hrs.
I used CHAPS buffer to homogenize so that its kinder to membrane proteins (which are of primary interest). Is the detergent action preventing to bind?
Is there changes to coating that I can do? Can detergent prevent coating - but how can I homogenize without detergernt if I am looking for brain membrane proteins?
Hi,
I have conducted an RCT (psychological intervention) where participants were randomised to 1 of 3 conditions.
Initially I conducted a per-protocol analysis but now I would like to do an intention to treat analysis and compare the results. The issue is that there is a lot of missing data (about 19%) and the pattern is MNAR.
What is the best approach to doing an intention to treat analysis in this situation? Can I still conduct the analysis with the missing data (not replacing them)?

Hello! I am running a Multigroup analysis with Amos 29 using the Theory of plan behaviour. My latent constructs are Attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavioural control, and intention (intention would be my dependent variable). My CFA and Structural models have a reasonable Fit. However, during the construct validity analysis, the AVE of some latent variables is below 0.5, and the construct reliability is between 0.6 and 0.88.
How can this impact the interpretation of the results? The structural model has a reasonable fit. CFI 0.93 IFI 0.93 TLI 0.89 RMSEA 0.06 NFI 0.92.
I highly appreciate some literature suggestions.

Hello ! I have recently concluded the data analysis of a study which looks at Attitude, Anxiety towards robots and Trust as predictors of intention to use robots. The Multiple Regression Analysis has turned up results that indicate:
1. A very low R square value of 0.15 something indicating the predictor variables account for a very low 15% of variation in the dependent variable-intention to use robots
2. The correlations between Negative attitude towards robots and intention to use is a very weak negative , though significant r of -0.224
3. The correlations between Anxiety and intention to use robots is similar very weak and negative with r= -0.176 but is not significant
4. The lone predictor which is 'behaving' as expected is Trust ---the correlation between trust and intention to use robots is a low 0.334, significant at a value of 0.002
5.Worse, the Beta Coefficients which for both Attitude towards robots and Anxiety are not significant...however, the B coefficient for Trust is significant at 0.008
6. Paradoxically, the Anova Table seems to show an acceptable model with significance at 0.010
I have done the assumption for regression checks and they mostly seem to be in place.
My research study primarily proposed attitudes, anxiety and trust predicted intention to use robots. But the multiple regression, with its results as ,mentioned above seems to indicate only trust has an impact on intention to use robots while attitudes and anxiety do not !
My Question therefore is, if the multiple regression does not support the hypothesised prediction impact for 2 out of the 3 predictor variables, what should i do with this research study ? I was to present this research study at a Conference, but now I am not sure if I should even attend the Conference. Please guide. Thank you in advance and regards
In the ongoing project focusing on the design of a Prosthetic Heart and Venous Valve, our objective is to enhance the optimization of the materials used. Our focus is to prioritize materials with the highest level of durability. Following the acquisition of secondary values from the samples tested in the controlled environment, we will process this data digitally and conduct comprehensive fatigue analyses of the entire structure. In this fatigue analysis, our intention is to introduce the load as a cycle with variable amplitudes. While the ANSYS Mechanical program allows for variable amplitude definition, it restricts the load to a single surface, which is not in line with our preferred approach. Moreover, the ABAQUS Fe-safe program does not permit variable amplitude definition. We are thus inquiring whether any prior research has been conducted on a similar scale, yielding accurate results. Is such an analysis possible?

"[ When one ] has clearly seen with correct wisdom as it really is, this dependent origination and these dependently arisen phenomenon, it is impossible that he will run back to the past thinking: 'Did I exist in the past? What was I in the past? How was I in the past?' OR that he will run forward into the future, thinking: 'Will I exist in the future? Will I not exist in the future? What will I be in the future? How will I be in the future? Having been what, what will I become in the future?' OR that he will now be inwardly confused about the present thus: 'Do I exist? Do I not exist? What am I? How am I? This being -- where has it come from, and where will it go?' ..."
"... the Dhamma [(the Way)] has ... been well-expounded ..., elucidated, disclosed, revealed, stripped of patchwork, this is enough for ...

"... Considering your own good, ..., it is enough to strive for the goal with diligence; considering the good of others, it is enough to strive for the goal with diligence; considering the good of both, it is enough to strive for the goal with diligence."

"... [He is] “liberated by non-clinging”, “one whose taints are destroyed”, “one who has done what had to be done ... reached his goal.” “... utterly destroyed the fetters of existence, [become] one completely liberated "
"Through dispassion [his mind] is liberated. When it is liberated there comes the knowledge: 'It's liberated.' He understands: 'Destroying birth, the holy life has been lived, what had to be done has been done, there is no more for this state of being.'"

" (1)–(2) the purpose and benefit of wholesome virtuous behavior is non-regret; (3) the purpose and benefit of non-regret is joy; (4) the purpose and benefit of joy is rapture; (5) the purpose and benefit of rapture is tranquility; (6) the purpose and benefit of tranquility is pleasure; (7) the purpose and benefit of pleasure is concentration; (8) the purpose and benefit of concentration is the knowledge and vision of things as they really are; (9) the purpose and benefit of the knowledge and vision of things as they really are is disenchantment and dispassion; and (10) the purpose and benefit of disenchantment and dispassion is the knowledge and vision of liberation.

Hello all,
I am a graduate student in the field of Learning Design and Technology and am currently enrolled in a class focused on research and evaluation in education. I have been tasked with describing the differences between research and evaluation. The work of Mertens (2020) is our main source for the class. My understanding is that they are both very similar in their methods; however, the primary differences have to do with the origination of key questions to be explored, the reasons for answering those questions, and how the answers/findings are used.
In research, the key questions originate from the researcher with the intention to discover new knowledge or to confirm/challenge existing knowledge. The findings of the research project would be used to inform the academic community and the larger society. My understanding is that the goal of the researcher is to publish the findings, adding to the current body of knowledge for others to critique and build upon, with the hope of influencing society for the good.
In evaluation, the key questions originate from the group that requests the evaluation with the intention to measure the effectiveness of a specified object - maybe the whole program or a course within the program. The findings of the evaluation project are used by the group to make decisions about the thing being evaluated - maybe to eliminate the program or to modify it. The evaluator communicates the findings of the evaluation to the group usually in a written report, but does not publish the results.
As members of this community, I am wondering how you might define and distinguish research from evaluation?
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the topic and I thank you in advance for your time.

Hello,
I'm currently writing my master thesis, and is investigating the behavioral intention of using a help desk ticket system in a company, using the meta-UTAUT model. I'm applying PLS-SEM for my analysis, but have run into some unexpected results.
My measurement model show acceptable validity and reliability metrics. When I run my structural model, effort expectancy has a negative and significant relationship to behavioral intention. This indicates the easier it is to use the system, the less likely the employees are to use it, which makes no sense.
I've checked my items, and none of them are formulated negatively. Unfortunately I do not know what this implies.
Do anyone have any idea, or can guide me in the right direction? Thank you very much in advance!
Hi,
I am looking for some advice regarding reliability testing. I have conducted a very small pilot study (6 participants) and need to test the reliability and validity of my questionnaire.
My questionnaire produces a range of categorical and continuous data, mainly in the form of Likert scales. My intention was to use Cronbach's alpha to test reliability, but it seems I cannot use this for categorical data.
Would it be appropriate to use Cronbach's alpha to assess the continuous data only and a seperate measure to assess the categorical data?
I wasn't sure if it were appropriate to use two seperate tests within the same questionnaire.
Thanks in advance.
Hello everyone, I am a new user of Abaqus.
I try to simulate the impact between a vessel and an off-shore wind turbine for my Thesis. The wind turbine is inserted in the sea-bottom. I have a problem regarding the modeling of the interaction between the soil and the embedded part of the wind turbine.
I have modeled this interaction using non-linear connector elements according to the following link: https://simulation-blog.technia.com/simulation/subsea-modeling-with-soil-and-structure-interaction-in-abaqus-part-1
However, this type of modelling imposes a load on the embedded part of the wind turbine resulting to its movement (without any other load imposed on it). Is this normal? Could you please advise on how I can eliminate this movement, as my intention is that those connectors describe the stiffness of the soil around the embedded wind turbine, operating as a constraint?
When our intention is clear that we are going for a quantitative study, should we take non probability sample ?

This claim is shared by some teachers, professors etc.
Sharing one's most valuable insights and accept the prospects of his students be coming part of a "knowable state of an advanved mind", is not something every teacher is consciously willing to do.
This thesis is in some aspects compatible with the political philosophy associated with the right, that admits Humans are inherently bad and are expected to underdeliver and not be generous to others without this benefit ing their agenda. Hence, if in teaching there is no clear social contract but vaque and general expectations that cannot asses deepest commitment to seeing others succeed at higher standards but a mere commitment to not prevent this by eye catching or basic omissions, the question above is valid.
My intention is to make visible part of the most important specimens deposited in the Colección Zoológica Dr. Eustorgio Méndez in Panama City.

Hello,
referring to the concept of Ambidexterity within the business-world/ organizations (e. g. Gibson and Birkinshaw 2004, March 1991, O'Reilly and Tushmann 2013): If one understands Ambidexterity as an ability the question arises for me: Which is the most recognized/ used scale / measures for ambidexterity-capability on an individual level?
I am trying to figure out how certain ambidexterity-scores affect the entrepreneurial intention and I am looking for measurements.
Thank you very much!
For my thesis, I want to investigate whether voice pitch and voice tempo (individually and combined) [X] influence the purchase intention of advertised food products [Y]. In addition, I expect two mediators [M1 and M2], so I expect to test my hypothesis via model 6 of the Hayes Process Macro test in SPSS.
However, I am not sure whether Process is suitable as I have four conditions (high pitch-fast tempo/ high pitch-slow tempo/ low pitch-fast tempo/ low pitch-slow tempo) in my X variable. Is this possible?
How can I remove lime from a 33% methanol plant extract?
Hi, I am working with a plant extract from which I removed the chlorophyll using lime. My intention is to perform cell culture with that extract but I have doubts that the lime could affect the culture, I have already tried to remove the lime by filtering (0.22 um), microcentrifugation (14000 rpm), and I have not been able to remove the lime. Could someone recommend me some technique?
Since I'm writing on my master thesis at the moment, I wondered if anyone of this community already conducted a study about the impact of display advertising regarding:

I am doing a research to study the impact of advertising on emotional experience and how both variables can relate to brand perception and purchase intention.
In my research I am using Openface facial recognition tool to quantify respondents emotional experience (valence) while watching an Ad (structured observation). Following the experiment, respondents have to answer questionnaire to relate both Ad and emotional valence to perception and purchase intention.
So can you please provide me with questionnaire references that relates to the topic to use it?
This is the PDF-Powerpoint I used for my online presentation at the Conference 'Current issues of social sciences and humanities', organised by the Department of Ethics and Aesthetics of the Faculty of Social Sciences of the National University of Uzbekistan, Tashkent, on Friday, 29 April 2022. My principal aim in this analysis is to describe Sen’s meditation as a teaching against fatalism, indifference, resignation and inaction: Sen’s criticism of these attitudes aims to uncover the deep roots of these attitudes themselves, since these attitudes conceal precise responsibilities.
Sen fights both in economics and in ethics against every form of concealing, under the idea of the unavoidability of nature, failures due to human mistakes. Unavoidable destiny proves to be, actually, as not so unavoidable as someone would like to present it. For instance, Sen’s opinion that famines are not a natural, but a social phenomenon aims to uncover all the attempts to present famines as something unavoidable, in relation to which the only solution is resignation. Sen’s intention is clearly to say that famines have precise responsibilities, and that those who present famines as natural phenomenon want to conceal their own responsibilities for the insurgence of famines. Governments try to blame on nature the cause of catastrophes, whereas the causes of social catastrophes are to be connected to the inefficiency of governments.
In particular, Iwould like to concentrate my exposition on the following themes: •Sen’s criticism of the thesis of food shortages as the (only) cause of famines.
• Famines happening when there is no political will that want to fight against the factors bringing to the famines. Persons, and not nature, are responsible for the occurring of famines.
• Sen’s defense of democracy as a system which is compatible with economic growth against all those who considers democracy as an obstacle to economic growth.
I am lacking some articles and theoretical background on this topic and it would be super helpful is someone has already ready a theory or an article about this and is happy to share!

I have an issue with my PhD Thesis and I hope SOMEONE can help me in clarifying or suggesting a solution to this question.
My research problem statement revolves around the low level of ICT integration in the classroom.
The research aims to measure teachers' beliefs and attitudes toward the integration of ICT IN TEACHING.
To conduct this research I suggested using the decomposed theory of planned behaviour (DTPB) model. This model measures the effect of 3 main constructs in predicting the intention of teachers toward the integration of ICT and tendencies for actual integration. below is the original model of DTPB.
In my research, I seek to investigate the actual integration of ICT, not the intention to integrate ICT.
MY QUESTION IS:
Why don't I remove the (intention to integrate ICT) from the proposed model as long as I'm only interested in measuring the actual integration of ICT within the class?
Thanks in advance
I am really confused with the variables that we will use in our study. We aim to identify the direct influence of consumer attitude toward pop-up ads on their purchase intention. In our framwork, the purchase intention is the dependent variable. However, the consumer attitude itself can be influenced by pop-up ads, so I believe that it cannot be labeled as the 'independent variable', since it depends on the pop-up ads.
My question is, what type of variable is the attitude, as well as the pop-up ads, if our main focus in the study is the attitude and purchase intention?
Hello,
I am currently writing my bacherlor's thesis and I am now at my results part. However, I am not quite sure which test I should use now to answer my hypothesis, two-way ANOVA or multiple lineair regression?
My hypothesis are
H1: Purchase intention is higher for advertisements that use human influencers (vs. virtual).
H2: Self-esteem will moderate the effect of the type of influencer on purchase intention.
In which self-esteem and type of influencer (human vs virtual) are the independent variables and purchase intention is the dependent variable.
Thank you.
For my research I'm trying to show how/whether or not trust mediates the relationship between anthropomorphised online agents and purchase intention. I've used existing scales to measure these variables but I'm not sure how this is done in SPSS - do I need to create a new single variable for anthropomorphism, trust and purchase intent combining the questions from the scales, or do I need to do something else?
In the attached photos you can see that when I put eigenvalue higher than 1 (which is of course supposed to be) I get 6 components, however my conceptual model proposed 7. For illustration I put in eigenvalue higher than 0.976 to ask the following question: is it possible to get this number to 1? Right now with 6 components, attitude and purchase intention are on the same component however in my conceptual model attitude leads to a higher purchase intention. Is this solvable?

For my thesis I'm trying to find out what influences people in their intention to use medical video consultations.
I'm using an adopted UTAUT2-based model. With the first 100 responds I did a first PLS-SEM evaluation of my model where I realised, that composite reliability and cronbachs alpha for one construct is too high.
What's the best way to handle this?
Should I change the items for this construct and continue with the same questionnaire? Can I sill use my first 100 responds then? Would those values look better with a larger sample size?
Thanks for your help!

-Intention:
-Compare A to B
-Compare A to C
I need to know if it is best that I do a Wilcoxon test for 2 groups, or a Friedman test for 3 groups, with a post hoc test to distinguish the difference between groups.
Thanks.
I am measuring attitude, behavioural intention, subjective norms and perceived behavioural control with an online survey. Each of the mentioned variables have been measured using 3x likert scale questions.
I have combined the 3 questions and calculated the median for each to come up with a final ''score'' for each variable out of 5 - is this final score still ordinal data or does it become scale data?
Hi! I am trying to run the following multiple linear regression in R:
r ~ condition (1 = Control, 2 = Active Control, 3 = Treatment, 4 = Importance Treatment) + type (0 = false, 1 = true) + age (13, 14, 15, adult) + domain (1 = eco, 2 = health, 3 = society, 4 = culture)
r is the intention to share a certain headline for a certain participant (initially given on a 6-points scale but the score being transformed into a variable comprised between 0 and 1) , where participants are randomly assigned to 4 conditions, and we want to test the respective effect of 2 treatment conditions vs 2 controls on the intention to share false headlines (we predict it will reduce the sharing of fake news, without impacting the sharing of real news), knowing that in all the conditions the main task consists in assessing the intention to share 24 headlines successively presented to the participant, half false half true (so we also want to know the effect of the "type" of the headline, being true or false; and eventually the effect of its category - within the 2 sets of headlines, we always have 1/4 of headlines with an economic subject, 1/4 on health, 1/4 on "society", and 1/4 on culture, although it is less important); and finally we are testing different age groups (13, 14, 15 years old, as well as an "adult" group with participants aged from 25 to 36 years old pooled together), to know if the effect predicted varies with age etc.
The main hypothesis of our study are :
-that treatments will improve discernment, defined as the difference between the intentions (r > 0.5) to share true news and the intentions to share fake news (ie it will really improve the quality of sharing, and not merely causing general skepticism),
-that this effect will be higher for headlines perceived as the most inaccurate (there will be an analysis on headlines as well, based on pretest), as we suppose the effect of the treatment works by refocusing the attention of the participant on the accuracy criterion, hence being greater for headlines that were generally (we will calculate a mean perceived accuracy for each headline across participants) perceived as the least accurate ones, and that will be consequently the ones for which sharing intentions will drop the most thanks to the treatment
-We have no particular prediction concerning age, which is precisely the novelty of the study (the literature review concerning adolescents' ability to evaluate fake news and their sharing online leaving the door open to quite different scenari)
-and no prediction for domain as well (we expect it won't play a role as the headlines have been chosen to be quite similar in tone, whatever the category)
Also, I need to cluster by participant (since there are repeated measures for each participants) and headline (multiple ratings for each headline).
I thought of using lm_robust but I don't know if we can put 2 clusters directly?
I also wonder what is the simplest way to check for potential effect of other secondary measures (like scores on a Cognitive Reflexion Task, gender, CSP appartenance etc): do I have to do regression testing all simple effects, interaction etc, or can I just add them to the global formula?
Thanks in advance!

Im conducting a study where I want to investigate consumer attitudes and purchase intention via questionnaires. I know that product related attitudes (price, taste etc) affects purchase intention, but I'm interested in investigating other areas. Do I need to include these product related attitudes in my questionnaire and control for them in my analysis, or can i disregard/exclude these variables entirely from my study?
Thanks in advance.
The effects of QE, quantitative easing, are becoming more apparent as years of using this monetary policy stimulus go by. This policy instrument is fairly new since it was used for the first time around 20 years ago. At first, the intention was to use it as a temporary solution and then do it in reverse by QT, quantitative tightening.

Dear colleagues.
I am thinking about the possibility of developing a predictive model applied to technology transfer processes in healthcare, its main intention in anticipating the success achieved by the parties involved. Computationally, is this possible?
I am conducting a survey on users of public transportation. My Ho is that there is no difference between the attribute of users and non-users. The intention here is to highlight the users' attributes (Gender, Age, income level, occupation, ...) and to distinguish the differences between the two classes. Given that I intend to use questionary, should I find a validated one or build my research design?
If my intention is to identify the "extent of awareness" of leaders on the different leadership styles, how should my questionnaire items be like? Can you please provide me examples on how to construct my question items so I will have a clear idea on how to construct other items? Thanks dears.
Hello everyone!
We are working on factors affecting consumer purchase intention of organic food products in Haryana state in India. We need help in framing the questionnaire for this purpose.
If you have a standardized questionnaire in this regard we will be appreciated it to share it here.
Thanks for your help and guidance.
Hi! I am doing a quantitative study on the impact of aspects of online reviews on purchase intention. I have conducted a survey, which resulted in a valid sample of 180. This measured 4 concepts as independent variables (predictors), and 1 dependent variable (purchase intention), all using validated measures and a 5-point Likert scale for all questions.
I have calculated both the Pearson's correlation coefficient and the standardized beta coefficient using a multiple regression analysis. They are similar, but give a slightly different ranking for the 4 predictors.
Can someone tell me why they result in different rankings, and perhaps which analysis to use primarily (or even to remove one)? I currently do not know if SCRAVG or VALAVG has more impact on PURAVG.
The goal of the study is to identify which aspect is most important for reviews in order to have a high purchase intention.
Thank you!
International exchanges are inevitable in order to develop our projects and to ensure a sufficient critical base for the research. This confronts us with the problem of translating ideas, concepts and results that have developed in our local working language. As we know, English nowadays plays the role of the pivotal language in most conferences and publications. My intention is not to argue with this position -- a pivotal language is needed -- but to understand what are the main problems raised by writing and communicating in a language that is not the one in which the work is done.
English speakers themselves must question the meaning of words, sometimes neologisms, used by a non-English speaker. Of course, what is at stake is not the words but the meaning they convey. These issues are being addressed in the study of learning mathematics in a second language, or in the study of the variety and variability of teachers' vocabularies in different languages.
As researchers the issue is somewhat different. In particular, we must coin words and expressions to name phenomena or concepts in our own working language and then the challenge of translating them, or to understand words and expressions specific to the domain coming from another cultural and linguistic environment-- sometimes via the pivotal language.
I am preparing a short essay on these issues. I will appreciate your contributions, hence my questions:
Do you have examples to share or any particular experience? What do you think about the reasons for these difficulties and the impact they may have on your own communication?
I am analyzing the effect of micro-influencers (those that have YouTube and no YouTube) on intention to travel. I have weather as a covariate and one moderator and mediator. I did a survey about this and used Likert scale in the answers so how do I analyze this in R? I want to show that micro-influencers with YouTube have a higher effect on intention to travel. Should I also do a SEM analysis to see what factors the questions load in? Please help!

Hello guys!
My problem is as follows: I am now writing my dissertation which is concerned with the extent to which customers' purchase intention is affected by information provided by anonymous vs familiar person. Independent variables in the study include argument quality, credibility etc. and purchase intention is dependent variable.
So, let's say I have four variables.
SocialMedia Argument Quality which predicts SocialMedia Purchase Intention
Anonymous Argument Quality which predicts Anonymous Purchase Intention.
Now, I would like to compare which effect is stronger. Normally, if there was only one dependent variable, I would simply run a multi regression and check the standardised beta to gain insight into which predictor impacts outcome more... However, here I have two independent variables and two dependent. How to approach this situation?
In the past, a similar study was conducted (Erkan & Evans 2016, the influence of eWOM...) and authors seem to have conducted multi regression - although they measured purchase intention twice for anonymous and familiar sources, they somehow computed a single variable out of it and then use both socialmedia argument quality and anonymous argument quality as independent variables, then simply taking standardised beta. Is that even a valid approach? How to compute a single purchase intention as a dependent variable if there are in fact two variables reflecting it (anonymous and familiar source purchase intention?
I would gladly appreciate help, as its crucial for my dissertation.
All the best!
I'm conducting qualitative research and had originally set out to interview around 15 participants from two groups (30 in total), which represented two perceptions of the same conversations. Group one is fine (15), however, I struggled with the recruitment of the second group (5) and I'm trying to reach out to fellow researchers who may have encountered a similar issue.
My current intention is to take group one data and use reflexive TA to analyze it. Then treat the data from group two as a supporting case study to provide a comparative perspective.
Has anyone followed a similar approach? and if not, what approaches have been used for data in such circumstances?
Hello everyone,
Please I will like to get your ideas on how to calculate the d-band center of a bimetallic crystal. My intention is to eventually see how the d-band center affects the performance (rate, yield e.t.c) of a heterogeneous reaction that takes place in the presence of the bimetallic crystal.
Thanks and regards,

I have a series of agar plates with fungi exposed to various concentrations of volatile compounds. My original intention was to take simple measurements of diameter but growth is irregular and I would prefer to find the area of growth for each to compare.
Each plate is 9 cm diameter and images were taken with tripods and cropped equally so size is equal enough across each.
I've started to look at ImageJ but struggling as I'm starting from scratch.

Hello everyone!
I am conducting a study on the intention to pay a service after applying three different treatments.
Respondents will first be asked whether or not they pay for the service. Then they will be shown a stimulus. After the stimulus they will be asked again about their intention to pay for the same service in the future.
Therefore, I will have three variables:
-Pretest: whether they pay for the service before (dichotomous variable).
-Treatment: which of the three treatments was applied (categorical variable: 1,2,3).
-Posttest: whether they pay for the service afterwards (dichotomous variable).
I read that I can use McNemar's test, but I would like to know if with a logistic regression I could use all three variables, and know if the treatments produce a change in payment intention and which treatment is better.
I would also like to know if other factors (age, ethical level, etc.) can be included to determine if they influence the change in intention to pay.
Best regards.
I'm a research scholar for my study I would like to use TIS-6 scale. C an any one help me how to interpret the scale. So that I can use that scale in my research.
Dear all,
I was expecting as usual general negative effect between trust(conceptualized) and perceived risk(conceptualized). however the the path coefficient is positive and significant in SmartPLS. I am confused, how can i explain it? what could be the reasons?
however, perceived risk and intention have negative effect as expected.
TIA
Dear All,
I am new to research and very little knowledge on using different approaches to a research problem. I present below my problem, please guide to resolve this.
I have initially framed an objective to identify the factors influencing the intention to use a technology using SEM. A conceptual model was framed using 12 variables based on literature review. The data collection began just before the pandemic situation (March 2020). Due to lockdown the data collection was slow and was completed in April 2021. Meanwhile, the circumstances in the area of my research drastically changed within a year. Now, I could find a lot of users of this technology and I feel that I could have measured the 'users' Satisfaction as well'. Recently, I found a lot of user reviews on this technology. My Supervisor is suggesting to add another objective to find "user experience" based on the User Reviews using Topic Modelling.
Is this approach correct? The first objective is of identifying the factors that influence behavior intention to use the technology using primary data (questionnaire tool). The second objective is to study the user experience in using the technology based on the users' reviews by extracting opinion features .
Is this approach a redundant one? Can I go with the second objective? If so, what's the justification should I give for adding the second objective ?
Please provide your advice/suggestions.
Thank you
