“…Thus, it is important to further examine the role of subjective norm among the food hawker as it could also form part of the causal effect toward the intention to use of EFFP (Ham et al, 2015). Moreover, it has been noted that that the influence of customer (Albrecht et al, 2017), influence of media (Md Husin et al, 2016), and moral obligation (Shin & Hancer, 2016) are also crucial to thoroughly examine the issue.…”

In recent years, the issue of food packaging waste has become a vital environmental concern in the society which revolves around waste management practices particularly among food hawkers. The problem has been highlighted by many researchers and numerous suggestions have been made in order to improve sustainability with regard to green environment. Food packaging waste ranks the highest contributor to waste. Thus, environmentally friendly food packaging (EFFP) has been introduced in the market to ensure good management practices could be promoted among food hawkers so that environmental pollution can be reduced. However, even though many environmental programs have been implemented, the usage of EFFP among food hawkers has not improved. Hence, this paper aims to propose a specific actual behavior model to determine the usage of EFFP among food hawkers with personal value as a mediator. The development of the model used data that were collected from local food hawkers. Structural equation modeling was used to test related hypotheses. The findings indicated that personal values were a suitable mediator construct. Furthermore, attitudes, subjective norm, and perceived behavioral were all found to have had significant effects on the intention to use and the actual behavior. Finally, this paper also discusses the limitations of the present study and the contribution it has made.

“…Ajzen (1991, p. 188) defined subjective norm as the "perceived social pressure to perform or not to perform the behavior." In Islamic financial services selection studies, social pressure especially from family members, close friends, and influential figures has been found to be a significant predictor of behavioral intention (Abdul Amin, 2012Amin, , 2013Amin, Abdul Rahman, and Abdul Razak, 2013;Amin, Rahman, and Ramayah, 2013;Amin et al, 2014a, b;Md Taib et al, 2008;Md Husin et al, 2016;Usman and Lizam, 2016). Therefore, if those important to them expect them to participate in schemes that are permissible by shari'ah, their intention to participate in the CWFCMM Model would be very very likely high or vice versa.…”

and finally, Quoc Cuong Phan and Taha Bhatti for the excellent research assistance in managing some of the papers in this issue. 646 MF 44,6 regarding the effect of these two variables to risk exposure and efficacy of both Islamic and conventional banking systems. In order to add more value to current literature with reference to the differences between Islamic and conventional banking systems, Bougatef and Korbi aimed to study the factors that explain intermediation margins under both Islamic and conventional banks operating in the Middle East and North Africa. By using the dynamic panel modeling approach, they revealed different determinants of net profit margins under these two systems. Utilizing various methodologies including Markowitz's (1952) portfolio optimization, visual data representations and the classic Fama-Macbeth (1973) two-pass procedure regressions, Cheong investigated the ability of the Islamic Gold Dinar to hedge against foreign exchange market volatility. His findings documented a new hedging instrument to diversify investors' currency portfolios. In the later article, Chowdhury, Akbar and Mohammad examined the relationship between Islamic financing principles and economic growth in Bangladesh using auto regressive distributive lags. Having considered all annual reports of Islamic banks in Bangladesh, this group of authors shed light on how the economic growth responds to the risk sharing and non-risk sharing instruments. In the wake of the GFC, predicting financial distress in banking systems has been increasingly more critical in order to prevent future economic downturns. In their paper, Halteh and his co-authors; Kumar and Gepp aimed to forecast the failure by using cutting-edge stochastic models including decision trees, stochastic gradient boosting and random forests to study 101 international publicly listed Islamic banks. Their findings add value to the literature on the issue of Islamic banking and predicting financial distress. To examine the differences in investors' perceptions concerning the response to the issuance of Sukuk and conventional bonds, Hassan, Ahmed and Rayfield observed significantly negative abnormal returns before and after the announcement date of Sukuk issuance. By utilizing linear and logistic regression models, they found an interesting connection: first, between firms' characteristics and these abnormal returns; and second, issuers' preferences between issuing Sukuk and conventional bonds. Mahmood, Gan and Nguyen, by utilizing the two-step system GMM estimation technique on 55 full-fledged Islamic banks from 11 different countries, have analyzed various factors at both firm-specific and macroeconomic levels, in order to explore their impacts on maturity transformation risk. This paper makes an important contribution to studying maturity transformation risk which is considered one of the major causes of the global financial crisis. Md Zabri and Mohammed examined the acceptability of the Cash Waqf-financial cooperative-Musharakah Mutanaqisah (MM) home financing...

“…The impact of media referent on subjective norms in the financial service industry has been studied previously. A study by Husin, Ismail, and Ab Rahman (2016) and Ayinde and Echchabi (2012) on Islamic insurance has proved that media referent had a significant positive relationship with subjective norms. According to Rogers (1995), the role of media is very important in early stages of products innovations.…”
