“…We used a quantitative method to test the proposed model (Figure 1) to examine the Indian shopper’s online impulsive shopping behavior using the TAM model. We used a convenience sampling method to recruit the respondents because of the nonavailability of an online shopper’s details in the digital realm (Goel et al , 2021; Mehta et al , 2022). Prior research has shown that in the case of a large sample population, the convenience sampling approach is advised to gather data quickly (Goel et al , 2021; Patel et al , 2020; Rafdinal and Senalasari, 2021).…”

Purpose The study aims to explore the impact of perceived utilitarian and hedonic value (PHV) on shopper attitude and impulsive online purchasing using the technology acceptance model’s moderating role of perceived trust and risk. Design/methodology/approach Convenience sampling was used to collect primary data from 408 Indian online shoppers, and structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data. Findings The results indicated that cognitive absorption improved perceived usefulness (PU) and ease of use. Similarly, perceived ease of use influenced PU and PHV significantly. PU influenced utilitarian value positively. Perceived hedonic and utilitarian values significantly influenced attitude, and shoppers’ online buying attitudes strongly impacted impulsive online shopping. Finally, the trust had shown to substantially moderate shoppers’ attitudes toward impulsive online buying, whereas perceived risk had no such effect. Practical implications This research reveals a high degree of hedonic and utilitarian values, as well as low-risk features that might improve consumer attitudes about online impulsive behavior. Originality/value This research will aid e-retailers in building new strategies and plans to increase sales volume and strengthen relationships with online customers via the provision of trust and security throughout the purchase process.

“…Meanwhile, dark tourism still retains social functions such as leisure and recreation, social interaction, and physical exercise (Kang et al, 2012;Yan et al, 2016;Iliev, 2021), and thus dark tourism motivations often include the general needs for education and recreation (Foley and Lennon, 1997). Dark tourism motives also include unconventional needs such as voyeurism, curiosity about death, and schadenfreude (Seaton and Lennon, 2004;Isaac and Cakmak, 2014;Mehta et al, 2022).…”

Purpose This study aims to investigate the perceived benefits arising from tourist activities at natural disaster sites, to analyze the influence of perceived benefits on satisfaction and behavioral intentions and to identify origin region’s moderating role. Design/methodology/approach A research model containing dark tourism motivations (DTMs), tourist perceived benefits (TPBs), tourist satisfaction (TS), protection intention (PI) and loyalty intention (LIs) was developed, and visitor origin was introduced as a moderating variable. Taking the 5·12 Wenchuan Earthquake Memorial Museum as a case site, data were obtained by distributing questionnaires on-site, and the model was tested using partial least squares-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). Findings DTMs had a significant effect on cognitive and affective benefits, and TPBs significantly affected TS, PI and LIs, with satisfaction playing a partial mediating role. The origins of tourists showed a moderating role in part of the influence relationship of perceived benefits. Practical implications This study explored the perceived benefits among dark tourists and built a research model of their influence on tourist satisfaction and behavior. This study not only provides suggestions for managers related to dark tourism development in natural disaster areas, but also offers the possibility of enhancing tourist dark tourism experiences by interpreting the psychology and behavior of dark tourists. Originality/value This research adopted a new perspective of the decision-making behavior of dark tourists. The perceived benefits arising from visiting natural disaster sites were analyzed and the relationships between TBSs and motivation, TS, PI and LIs were examined. Considering the specificity of dark tourism emotions, the research also analyzed the similarities and differences in the psychology and behavior of locals and non-locals in dark tourism. The research results enrich and deepen the theoretical study of dark tourism.
