Abstract

This study explores the influence of green practices, environmental consciousness on consumers’ willingness to visit shopping malls, focusing on Ayala Malls in Makati City. As environmental sustainability gains traction, malls increasingly adopt eco-friendly initiatives to attract and retain environmentally aware shoppers. This research specifically investigates how sustainability efforts such as waste management systems, energy-efficient infrastructure, and green open spaces influence consumer attitudes and visit intentions. The objective is to determine how environmental awareness and green practices contribute to consumers' shopping intentions, and which initiatives most effectively foster positive perceptions and behaviors. A quantitative research design was used, gathering data from 385 via a structured questionnaire. Regression analysis was applied to assess the impact of green practices and environmental consciousness on mall visitation intent. Findings reveal a strong consumer preference for environmentally sustainable shopping environments. Respondents highlighted visible recycling measures, bicycle parking, and active sustainability campaigns as key factors shaping positive mall experiences. These green features were significantly influenced by the increased likelihood of mall visits. The study underscores the importance of enhancing green initiatives within malls. Recommendations include simplifying waste management systems, introducing sustainable consumption incentives, and embedding sustainability in corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts. These strategies not only boost consumer engagement but also support long-term business viability. Future researchers may consider examining the changing consumer behavior trends and asses the long-term business value of green practice.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the perceived usefulness of Google Scholar among Office Administration students in state universities, focusing on its role in conducting literature reviews. The research seeks to measure factors that drive students to use Google Scholar, associated with students' intentions to continue using the platform in their academic work. The study specifically gathered data from Office Administration students enrolled in state universities during the academic year 2024-2025. Findings from this research will contribute to improving digital literacy programs and enhancing students’ academic experience. The study revealed a significant correlation between the perceived usefulness of Google Scholar and students’ intention to use it. It shows that the multiple factors, such as efficiency in finding relevant sources, quick access to information, availability of up-to-date research, user-friendliness, and cost-free access, are associated with students' intention to use Google Scholar for their academic research, especially in finding literature reviews. The strong positive correlations across various aspects indicate that students who perceive Google Scholar as a useful tool are more inclined to integrate it into their research activities, prefer it over other academic databases, explore its advanced features, and recommend it to others. The findings show that while students find Google Scholar convenient and accessible, some struggle with navigation and accessing full-text articles. The study recommends further research on the platform’s long-term impact and how digital literacy affects its use. Future studies may explore whether targeted training improves students' research skills, offering insights for universities to better support academic success.

Abstract

This study examines the factors influencing the intention to purchase among Filipino consumers toward Pop Mart products using a predictive-correlational research design. 383 Pop Mart customers in Metro Manila took part in both online and on-site surveys. The data were analyzed using statistical tools such as weighted mean, frequency and percentage distribution, and multiple linear regression analysis. The findings revealed that Attitude towards Behaviour, Perceived Value, and Word-of-Mouth had a significant influence on purchase intention among Filipino consumers when buying Pop Mart products, whereas Uncertainty did not. This study would greatly help marketers, brand managers, and even business owners who are aiming to enhance their purchase intention among their target markets like young Filipino consumers. Despite knowing that attitude, perceived value, and word-of-mouth significantly influenced intention to purchase, similar brands like Pop Mart may develop a strategy that highlights emotional satisfaction beyond owning the collectibles, uniqueness of the product, and the power of social influence that drives purchase intention.
