Exploring Utility, Attitude, Intention to Use, Satisfaction, and Loyalty in B2C/P2P Car-Sharing Economy

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of perceived utilities on attitude differ for existing and potential users, and also for cases of B2C and P2P car-sharing, and the findings of this study have provided managerial, theoretical, and policy implications.
Abstract: The sharing economy, facilitated by technology and social media, has grown rapidly across the world. The sharing economy is still in a fledgling phase, so relatively little research has been carried out on it. By classifying the existing and potential users, the purpose of the study is to investigate effects of perceptions on utilities, attitude, satisfaction, loyalty, and intention to use for both cases of B2C and P2P car-sharing. Study 1 examines the effects of the level of utility related to the levels of satisfaction and loyalty to existing users and intentions to use and expected satisfaction to potential users of B2C car-sharing, while Study 2 investigates the effects of their intention and levels of expected satisfaction to potential users of P2P car-sharing. This study collected the data via online and offline survey and applied statistical analyses including factor analysis, regression analysis, and ANOVA. The results revealed that the effect of perceived utilities on attitude differ for existing and potential users, and also for cases of B2C and P2P car-sharing. The findings of this study have provided managerial, theoretical, and policy implications.

TL;DR: The sharing economy is estimated to add hundreds of billions of dollars to the global economy and is rapidly growing as discussed by the authors, however, trust-based commercial sharing, the participation in for-profit peer-to-peer (P2P) sharing, is still relatively new.

  • ...Positive experiences and a confirmation of trust also improve people’s attitudes toward the platform itself (Mittendorf, 2018; C. Wang & Jeong, 2018; but see also S. Lee & Cho, 2015) and reduce switching intentions (Liang, Choi, & Joppe, 2018)....

TL;DR: While digital access has grown substantially across the globe, it appears that this growth has accompanied a steady decline in some measures of global democracy.
Abstract: We examine the effects of digital access on the prevalence of democracy and its diffusion via trade, geographical and migration networks across 189 countries between 2000 and 2010. We find that different digital technologies may have varying impacts on freedom while affecting its diffusion via different political networks, and that related changes in civil liberties can be affected by both media freedom and internal political institutions. Our analysis suggests three key mechanisms linking information technology with democratic change and highlights the importance of a country's “susceptibility” to political influence that is triggered by greater digitally induced visibility.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors examined the attitude and inclination of customers towards voice assistants and found that convenience value and emotional value emerged as strongest predictors of customer attitude followed by device quality and epistemic value.
Abstract: This all-inclusive comprehensive research paper talks about the attitude and inclination of customers towards ‘voice assistants’ which has been a sensation in the information technology, automated response and robotics in past one decade. The paper critically examines and discusses about the aspects such as theory of consumption values (TCV); history, current market and penetration of voice assistants in India. Data was gathered by North Indian respondents using voice assistants. The sample comprised of 332 respondents and data was analyzed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). The results confirmed the significant positive impact of all the values in building positive attitude. Convenience value and emotional value emerged as strongest predictors of customer attitude followed by device quality and epistemic value. Moving ahead attitude also had strong impact on customer satisfaction. Using TCV theoretical framework, this research is an initial end-eavor to analyze the enablers of voice assistants which will not only help in their adoption but also provide deep insights to the developers also.

TL;DR: Ajzen, 1985, 1987, this article reviewed the theory of planned behavior and some unresolved issues and concluded that the theory is well supported by empirical evidence and that intention to perform behaviors of different kinds can be predicted with high accuracy from attitudes toward the behavior, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control; and these intentions, together with perceptions of behavioral control, account for considerable variance in actual behavior.

  • ...The theory of Planned Behavior (Ajzen, 1991) is an extension of the Theory of Reasoned Action (Fishbein & Aizen 1975), and has utilized studies of understanding human behavior, including online commerce (Venkatesh, Thong, & Xu, 2012). In addition, the Technology Acceptance Model (Davis, 1989) is developed from corporate information technology-acceptance studies. Oliver (1997) defined satisfaction as the consumer’s fulfillment response, that is to say, a judgment that a product or service feature provided (or is providing) a pleasurable level of consumption-related fulfillment, including under- or over-fulfillment....

TL;DR: Regression analyses suggest that perceived ease of use may actually be a causal antecdent to perceived usefulness, as opposed to a parallel, direct determinant of system usage.

TL;DR: The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) as mentioned in this paper is a unified model that integrates elements across the eight models, and empirically validate the unified model.
Abstract: Information technology (IT) acceptance research has yielded many competing models, each with different sets of acceptance determinants. In this paper, we (1) review user acceptance literature and discuss eight prominent models, (2) empirically compare the eight models and their extensions, (3) formulate a unified model that integrates elements across the eight models, and (4) empirically validate the unified model. The eight models reviewed are the theory of reasoned action, the technology acceptance model, the motivational model, the theory of planned behavior, a model combining the technology acceptance model and the theory of planned behavior, the model of PC utilization, the innovation diffusion theory, and the social cognitive theory. Using data from four organizations over a six-month period with three points of measurement, the eight models explained between 17 percent and 53 percent of the variance in user intentions to use information technology. Next, a unified model, called the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT), was formulated, with four core determinants of intention and usage, and up to four moderators of key relationships. UTAUT was then tested using the original data and found to outperform the eight individual models (adjusted R2 of 69 percent). UTAUT was then confirmed with data from two new organizations with similar results (adjusted R2 of 70 percent). UTAUT thus provides a useful tool for managers needing to assess the likelihood of success for new technology introductions and helps them understand the drivers of acceptance in order to proactively design interventions (including training, marketing, etc.) targeted at populations of users that may be less inclined to adopt and use new systems. The paper also makes several recommendations for future research including developing a deeper understanding of the dynamic influences studied here, refining measurement of the core constructs used in UTAUT, and understanding the organizational outcomes associated with new technology use.
