Purpose: The purpose of this study was to propose useful suggestions by analyzing the causal relationship between technology-based self-service for smart airport and intention to use. Methods: The data was collected by using the structured questionnaires. The proposed research model is tested using 231 valid questionnaires by R.3.2.1 plspm package. Results: The results of this study are as follows; the effecting factors of technology based self service for introducing smart airport, it was found that the effects of personal innovativeness and enjoyment and responsiveness, social impact were significant for acceptance and personal innovativeness was not significant on perceived usefulness. This study suggests significant factors on the implementation of smart airports and technology-based self-service. It also introduced new technologies in the future by looking at various characteristic factors that affect the intention of using technology-based self-service to promote smart airports.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate factors influencing the intention to use Fintech Digital Sand(D-Testbed), which facilitate digital innovation in the financial sectors and allow fintech startups to simulate the PoC their innovative ideas before starting a business. Methods: This study used the Extended Technology Acceptance Model (TAM2), with independent variables such as social influence, personal innovativeness, service quality, relative advantage, and security concerns used in previous studies, for analysis. For mediator variables, the perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use were used in this study. Results: The results indicated that social influence and perceived usefulness have a positive effect on the intention to use. It was also analyzed that relative advantage has a mediating effect on perceived usefulness whereas service quality nor personal innovativeness are not statistically significant mediation. On the other hand, perceived ease of use on the intention is not statistically significant. By this, it was confirmed that the intention to use Fintech Digital Sand(D-Testbed) was to improve the business performance of fintech companies, but not because it was easy to learn and take less effort. Conclusion: The finding of the study provides valuable implications for invigorating the use of fintech digital sandbox(D-testbed) and identifying the factors that affect the perception and intention to use among employees in fintech companies in advance.

The adoption of new technology in any organization will represent change, and such change needs user acceptance for its successful implementation. Saudi Arabian health centers are no exception; therefore, the current study will investigate the adoption of new technology, namely that of virtual reality (VR), within health centers in Saudi Arabia and specifically in Riyadh City. This study explores the current state of VR technology adoption, factors that influence such adoption, and the extent of this technology's efficiency when it is used for vaccinating children. The data were collected from two samples: workers in vaccination clinics who responded to a survey and a group of children who participated in the VR technology experiment. The current study proposed a model based on the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology 2 (UTAUT2), with the addition of two variables: personal innovativeness and satisfaction. The results indicated that the respondents' perceptions regarding the health centers' infrastructure in terms of adopting VR were moderate. Among the factors affecting VR adoption, satisfaction, personal innovativeness, and behavioral intention were identified as vastly influential factors. From the eight hypotheses, six were found to be supported, with their factors significantly influencing behavioral intention with regard to VR technology adoption. Besides, the experiment concerning the use of VR technology on children verified the technique's high efficiency in terms of providing pain management and fear removal. These findings support the continuity of VR technology use, expand its future application fields, and integrate this study into the literature on technology acceptance models for VR adoption, as limited studies have covered this topic; consequently, this will benefit future research in this field.

This study investigated the purchase intention of green fashion products based on Rogers' Diffusion of Innovation theory and compared the differences between Korean and British consumers. In order to identify the impact of personal characteristics, this study also examined the effects of fashion innovativeness and LOHAS tendency on perceived attributes of innovation and intention to purchase. With a convenience sampling method, a survey questionnaire was distributed at popular fashion streets in each country. A total of 426 data were obtained, 203 from the UK and 223 from Korea. About 52% were females, and 69% were in their twenties. A factor analysis generated two LOHAS factors (health concerns and eco concerns) and four attributes of green fashion products (image improvement, symbolic superiority, observability, and compatibility). Two types of green fashion products (organic cotton t-shirts and organic cotton t-shirts with an environmental message) were provided to measure the purchase intention, respectively. The findings were as follows. British consumers were more likely to show LOHAS tendency and to perceive positive advantages of green products compared to Koreans; in addition, British consumers presented higher mean scores on the purchase intentions of organic cotton products. Fashion innovativeness was significant to predict image improvement and symbolic superiority, while eco concerns were significant in compatibility for both nations. Compatibility was important for both countries in order to explain the intention to adopt two types of organic products. In addition, image improvement was another predictor for purchase intention of organic t-shirts with an environmental message. Managerial implications were provided.

People are exposed to diverse images and naturally find images to express themselves to others for personalsatisfaction. They present ideal images that they desire to obtain or actual images that they already have. People find differences between ideal images and actual images as well astry to overcome differences by managing appearance or purchasing fashion items. The congruence between real and ideal self-images and perceived body images stimulate clothing involvement or consumer confidence to influence fashion innovativeness and fashion opinion leadership. Fashion leaders are known for confidence when making buying decisions on new fashion products and are more likely to influence other consumers to buy new items. This study useda structural equation model to understand the influence of perceived self and body image on clothing involvement and consumer confidence as well as define how perceived images influence fashion leadership through clothing involvement and consumer confidence. The results of this study indicated that self-image congruence has a positive impact on social body image and personal body image. A positive influence of perceived body image on clothing involvement and consumer confidence was also detected. Fashion opinion leadership could be explained by clothing involvement and consumer confidence; however, fashion innovativeness could only be explained by consumer confidence.
