Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the influence of perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and trust on the intention to use e-commerce applications, specifically in the context of post-pandemic consumer behavior. By introducing attitude as a mediating variable, the research seeks to uncover the psychological pathway through which these perceptual factors shape user intentions. Furthermore, the study addresses a contextual gap by focusing on users in West Nusa Tenggara, contributing to a more localized understanding of e-commerce adoption in emerging regions.Design/Methodology/Approach: This study adopts a quantitative research design employing an explanatory survey approach, which entails gathering data directly from respondents. The primary research tool is a questionnaire based on a Likert scale, comprising a series of structured questions for participants to respond to. The study sample includes 100 participants, selected through purposive sampling. To examine both the direct and indirect relationships among the research variables, data analysis is performed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with the aid of SmartPLS software.Findings: The results of the study show that the perceived ease of use and perceived trust have a direct and significant influence on the intention to use e-commerce shoppe applications, while perceived usefulness does not have a direct effect but significantly contributes to shaping users’ attitudes. Attitude is proven to be a strong mediating variable that bridges the relationship between users’ perceptions (usefulness, ease of use, and trust) and their intention to use.

Abstract

Purpose: AThe purpose of this study is to explore how different factors, specifically reward, work environment, and motivation, impact employee performance within the EKP Department of FEB Universitas Negeri Malang. Organizations rely heavily on human resources to achieve their goals, and effective management of these resources is crucial for sustained success. Understanding the relationship between these factors and employee performance can help managers create an environment that supports high performance and satisfaction. Employee performance is influenced by both internal and external factors. Rewards, which can be both intrinsic and extrinsic, serve as a form of recognition for employees’ efforts and achievements. Meanwhile, the work environment encompasses the physical, psychological, and social conditions in which employees work. Motivation drives employees to put forth their best efforts, and it can be fostered through various means, including recognition, support, and personal growth opportunities. By examining how reward, work environment, and motivation contribute to employee performance, this study aims to provide insights that can guide organizational strategies. Identifying the most influential factor among these three can help managers and decision-makers prioritize interventions and resources to improve employee productivity and overall organizational effectiveness.Design/Methodology/Approach: This research uses a quantitative approach with a saturated sampling technique, involving all 47 employees of the department. Data was collected using questionnaires that applied a five-point Likert scale to measure the perceptions of respondents on each factor. Before performing multiple regression analysis, classical assumption tests were conducted to ensure data validity, addressing issues such as normality, multicollinearity, and heteroscedasticity. The use of multiple regression was justified despite the small sample size because it allowed for analyzing the simultaneous and individual influence of the independent variables on employee performance.Findings: The findings indicate that reward, work environment, and motivation all significantly influence employee performance, both individually (partially) and together (simultaneously). Of these three factors, the work environment was found to have the strongest impact on employee performance. This suggests that creating a supportive, well-organized, and comfortable work environment is crucial for enhancing employee productivity. The study highlights the practical importance of focusing on both tangible and intangible aspects of the work environment, as well as implementing fair reward systems and motivational strategies, to support high employee performance.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to develop an adaptive change management framework to enhance the capacity of microcredit borrowers while strengthening the credit risk management model at Bank Rakyat Indonesia (BRI). Currently, BRI faces significant challenges in managing credit risk quality within the micro segment, which accounts for approximately 37.1% of the total loan portfolio. Despite its strategic role in promoting financial inclusion and economic empowerment, this segment continues to exhibit a relatively higher Non-Performing Loan (NPL) ratio compared to other segments. This condition results in substantial provisioning burdens and increases the potential for moral hazard, driven by interest rate subsidies that are not supported by an effective mechanism for debtor graduation.Design/Methodology/Approach: This study employs a qualitative approach, employing thematic analysis, and synthesizes the ADKAR model and the Integrative Change Model (ICM) into an original framework termed the Integrated Cascade Framework (ICF). The ICF framework integrates change simultaneously across three layers: strategic–governance, operational–organizational, and ecosystem–debtor behavior.Findings: The findings indicate that this integration can align the corporate risk appetite with tangible changes in debtor behavior toward graduation. The implementation of the Integrated Cascade Framework (ICF) is expected to foster a more sustainable, well-controlled, and adequate microcredit distribution pattern, thereby significantly enhancing national productive capacity.

Abstract

Purpose: The research examines the urgency of digital transformation, which is rapidly affecting the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) sector. As the backbone of the local economy in Gorontalo Province, MSMEs face significant challenges in adapting to technological, market, and regulatory changes. Psychological factors such as resilience and stress management are presumed to play a crucial role in shaping the adaptive behavior of MSME managers in responding to these changes. The purpose of this study is to analyze the influence of these two psychological variables on the adaptive behavior of MSME managers and to identify the factors that most significantly contribute to their readiness to face digital transformation.Design/Methodology/Approach: The research employed a quantitative approach using multiple regression analysis on survey data from 150–200 MSME actors. The findings reveal that personal strength, social support, coping strategies, and optimism significantly influence adaptive behavior. In contrast, factors such as emotional regulation, impulse control, stress awareness, and negotiation ability do not show a meaningful effect.Findings: The resulting model explains 67.3% of the variance in change behavior, with personal strength emerging as the most dominant predictor. These findings indicate that readiness for change is more strongly determined by practical and psychological reinforcement factors rather than reflective ones. Therefore, interventions aimed at strengthening MSMEs should focus on enhancing personal resilience, developing coping strategies, optimizing social support, and fostering an optimistic outlook.

Abstract

Purpose: Despite having the largest population and human resources in the ASEAN region, Indonesia still lags in terms of productivity compared to countries such as Singapore, Thailand, and Malaysia. This fact highlights a fundamental issue that is not only technical and economic but also closely tied to the organizational culture embedded within the work system. The objective of this study is to analyze Indonesia’s organizational culture using the Hofstede Insights approach, supported by the Culture Compass as an analytical tool, and to compare Indonesia's condition with those of other Southeast Asian countries that exhibit high labor productivity.Design/Methodology/Approach: This study employs a descriptive quantitative method, supported by data obtained using an AI-based Culture Compass instrument, developed from Hofstede’s organizational culture indicators and calibrated to the local context.Findings: This study reveals that Indonesia's low labor productivity is closely linked to cultural factors, including high power distance, strong collectivism, short-term orientation, and low indulgence. Compared with Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand, Indonesia’s organizational culture is less adaptive to contemporary work demands, thereby hindering innovation, leadership participation, and talent development. Strategic cultural transformation is essential to improve human capital competitiveness.

Abstract

Purpose: This study reviews empirical evidence on AI chatbots in micro and small MSMEs to explain their impact on sales performance and customer satisfaction and to identify key drivers, barriers, and adoption strategies relevant to Society 5.0.Methodology: A PRISMA-guided systematic literature review was conducted across Scopus-indexed sources (ScienceDirect, Emerald, MDPI), covering July 2014–July 2025. Thirty-nine articles met the inclusion criteria.Findings: Flow and Technology Interactivity explain how readability, transparency, personalization, responsiveness, and ubiquitous connectivity create flow, thereby enhancing communication quality and satisfaction. TAM/UTAUT and meta-UTAUT show perceived usefulness as the most consistent driver of intention and continuance, with perceived intelligence and anthropomorphism reinforcing acceptance; privacy risk, time risk, technological anxiety, and data/security concerns inhibit adoption. The TOE lens groups context-specific enablers and constraints across technology, organization, and environment, while RBV and Dynamic Capabilities clarify how AI-CRM, data governance, multichannel integration, and sensing–seizing–reconfiguring convert conversational value into advantage.
