Abstract

The rapid growth of beginner investors in Indonesia demonstrates a significant shift in financial market participation. However, beginner investors' investment decisions regarding forex and stock instruments are often not entirely rational and are more influenced by psychological factors, social pressures, and behavioral biases. This study aims to analyze the influence of herding behavior, risk attitude, and overoptimism on beginner investors' decisions in choosing forex or stock investments, as well as to examine the role of intention as a predictor of actual behavior according to the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) framework. The research employs a quantitative approach using a questionnaire survey of 140 beginner investors in Indonesia. Data analysis was conducted using Structural Equation Modeling Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The results show that all hypotheses are accepted: herding behavior (β=0.221; t=2.891; p=0.004), risk attitude (β=0.320; t=3.745; p=0.000), overoptimism (β=0.316; t=3.612; p=0.000), and intention (β=0.823; t=11.245; p=0.000) have positive and significant effects on beginner investors' decisions, with intention being the strongest predictor. This research strengthens the behavioral finance literature and extends the TPB model in the context of investment decision-making.

Abstract

The increasingly advanced development of the times requires people to be able to create creativity in order to meet their daily needs or even increase their income. One example of waste that can be reused is household waste that is difficult to decompose, namely used cooking oil. Processing used cooking oil into other useful products, such as aromatherapy candles, can be done by adding several ingredients such as stearin and essential oils. The purpose of this community service activity is to transform used cooking oil waste into aromatherapy candles that have economic value. This activity was carried out through training for PKK members in Jetis Village, South Klaten District, Klaten, to make aromatherapy candles directly. This effort is intended to reduce used cooking oil waste by turning it into useful products with economic value.The marketing of aromatherapy candle products can be done both offline and online, such as through platforms like Shopee, Lazada, TikTok, and others
