The information that influencers provide is essential to their fans and may even influence their behaviour [47]. Credibility is the evaluation of a communicator's credibility made by a perceiver, and it can also be defined as the quality of being trusted or being able to be believed [4].…”

In recent years, influencers on social media platforms have received substantial attention during the COVID-19 pandemic. Influencers impact consumer purchase intentions, and credibility plays a mediating role in the link between these variables. A survey was conducted in the Eastern Region of Saudi Arabia with 312 respondents, and partial least squares (PLS-SEM) were used for data analysis. The findings indicate that a significant link was identified between SMIs and purchase intentions, and credibility was determined to play a mediating role between these variables. Furthermore, the findings contribute to understanding customer behavior. The paper discusses the implications and opportunities for the future research.

This study aimed to obtain scientific evidence by identifying the best economic governance practices to improve national economies in developing countries. To complete this project, we reviewed several publications in the form of books and scientific journals that we obtained electronically by searching with keywords such as economic development, national financial improvement, and developing countries. What we have done under a phenomenological approach, such as concluding to get the highest findings after discussing and looking for validity, we can finally conclude that there are several best practices that we have found, including if the country wants to develop the economy, the first thing is to identify education and skills to his people, the role in the ITC of citizen, the provision of infrastructure, capital market investment, funding for MSMEs, skills strengthening, and citizen education. Thus the results of this work become insights finding in the improvement of future studies.

“…The existing literature also found that ICT adoption contributes to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations, including promoting better, more accessible health systems to increase life expectancy (Goal 3), generating employment and income through innovation (Goal 9) and revitalizing strong global partnerships for sustainable development (Goal 17) (Andersson & Hatakka, 2023; Prieto‐Egido et al, 2023). It is also found that ICT adoption helps to diversify rural income (Leng et al, 2020), improve the psychological health of rural farmers (Zhu et al, 2020), stimulate rural entrepreneurship (Barnett et al, 2019; Chatterjee et al, 2020; Geng & Xue, 2023), smooth rural consumption expenditure (Zhu et al, 2022), and promote environmental sustainability (Shobande & Ogbeifun, 2022).…”

This special issue contributes to the development economics literature by highlighting the role of information communication and technologies (ICTs) in supporting rural and agricultural development. It is comprised of nine papers. Key findings from this special issue include: (1) internet use increases rural consumption diversity and agricultural productivity; (2) smartphone use empowers rural women in household decision‐making and off‐farm work participation; (3) smartphone‐based agricultural extension services boost rural income growth; (4) a lack of ICT infrastructure and inadequate skills to use digital technologies are two key factors that lead to digital poverty traps for smallholder rural farmers; (5) ICT adoption increases the probability of rural households' access to credit and empowers rural women and farm households in relatively less developed regions to access credit; (6) digital financial inclusion reduces farmers' vulnerability to poverty; and (7) e‐commerce adoption increases both sales prices and marketing costs, but the magnitude of increasing the former is higher than the magnitude of increasing the latter, which finally contributes to a higher gross return. This special issue also proposes practical instruments and implications for advancing the application of ICTs in rural areas to accelerate rural and agricultural development in the digital age.
