Abstract

The rapid development of the business world has resulted in several changes to business actors in carrying out their business activities. This encourages the emergence of standard agreements as practicality in conducting transactions. This study aims to analyze consumer protection law and apply the principles of freedom of contract in standard agreements in online and retail financial services businesses—the descriptive qualitative method with data collection techniques using in-depth interviews and documentation studies. Informants were selected by purposive sampling. The results show that standard clauses have been regulated in Article 18 of the Consumer Protection Law. However, in practice, clauses are still found that violate and transfer responsibility to the detriment of consumers. Furthermore, regarding consumer dispute resolution, there is an overlap issue between the Financial Services Authority (OJK) and the Consumer Dispute Resolution Agency (BPSK). Therefore, if viewed from the principle of freedom of contract, the standard agreement cannot fulfill the principle of freedom of contract, and consumer protection, so especially in the financial services sector and retail, needs to increase preventive and repressive supervision by providing several alternatives dispute resolutions for disadvantaged consumers.

The results confirm lower altruists consumers use mainly altruistic attribution to form their judgment on brand credibility. They also employ cause-brand fit and firm motives to shape their decision on CSR perception in CrM messages.

Abstract

Various allegations towards the poverty problems are due to the issue of cultural, consumption behavior, social dynamics, and policy support. This study deals with the pattern of communities spending behavior through modeling the allocation of house-hold expenditure using secondary data published by Indonesian Central Bureau of Statistic (BPS) and offers models of household expenditure allocation appropriate and proportional. Allocation model of household expenditure is expected to be one step in formulating policies related to alleviate poverty. Time series analysis was used through modeling, econometric modeling and exposure effects going from the various patterns portrayed in the 2000-2008 period. By using National Economic Survey data (SU-SENAS) period 2000-2008, the study found that the differences in geological structure affect their livelihoods and consumption patterns, such as mountains, valleys, beaches, flood plains, lakes, and so on. The allocation of income of poor households tends to appear dominant in some categories of consumption related to housing and household facilities, various goods and services, clothes, and rice. However, other consumption categories tend not to be a priority for the consumption of poor households. Almost all categories of movement patterns of consumption have almost the same, still increasing from 2000 - 2006, except in 2005 which increased exceeding anomaly in 2006.

This study aims to understand the effect of expectancy for character growth (learning, novelty, escapism, enjoyment, social value, audio-visual value, and value for money) on online games towards online gamer loyalty. This quantitative research uses a purposive sampling method with a sample of 375 respondents. The data were processed using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method. The results showed that learning, escapism, audio-visual value, and value for money have a positive effect on expectancy for character growth. However, novelty, enjoyment, and social value do not have an effect on expectancy for character growth. Furthermore, expectancy for character growth has a positive effect on online gamer loyalty. Therefore, game developers need to know the fantasy of gamers, improve the quality of graphics, and provide discounts to increase gamers’ loyalty

Abstract

Country-of-origin (COO) is an important factor influencing purchase decisions, but its effectiveness remains debated due to inconclusive research. One key element affecting COO’s impact is consumer culture, yet studies on this topic are still limited. This research examines how Hofstede’s cultural dimensions influence the effectiveness of COO in shaping purchase intention. Hofstede's theory is the most widely used cultural framework and is highly regarded for explaining such phenomena. Unlike previous studies that primarily focused on the direct influence of Hofstede's cultural values on purchase intention in a limited manner, this study provides a comprehensive analysis of Hofstede's cultural values as moderating variables in the relationship between Country of Origin (COO) and purchase intention, covering all six cultural dimensions: power distance, masculinity, collectivism, uncertainty avoidance, indulgence, and long-term orientation. The study used data from 202 respondents (ages 25–34) in Jakarta and analysed it using moderated linear regression. The results indicate that the cultural dimensions of long-term orientation, uncertainty avoidance, and masculinity moderate the effect of Country of Origin (COO) on purchase intention for electronic products from Korea and China. In contrast, for local products, only long-term orientation and uncertainty avoidance were found to have a significant moderating effect. These findings are expected to contribute to the body of knowledge for readers and serve as a consideration in selecting appropriate methods and target markets for marketing strategies.

PLS-SEM was used to evaluate research framework which integrates TPB, Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), and Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) with value co-creation and quality of society life into nine hypotheses. The study results showed that perceptions of technology security, technology trust, community empowerment, and subsidy policies have a significant effect on adoption intentions (p-value0.05). Adoption intention did not significantly affect on the quality of life (p-value 0.142>0.05). Intention to adopt, value co-creation, and subsidy policy have a positive relationship with the quality of community life. The government's roles in ensuring consistent subsidy policies and community empowerment program is crucial for building awareness and trust to adopt the EV.
