This study studies the influence of omnichannel service benefits in customer product purchasing decisions and investigates the omnichannel adoption behavior of customers in fashion apparel retail in Bali. Data collection is completed twice in stages I and II, covering fifteen to thirty days (15-30). The population in this study is a group of Balinese customers with high adaptation to technology. The maximum sample in this study is 210 respondents. The study findings reveal that their path coefficient values supported some hypotheses while some others were not supported. The research findings indicate that the variables of service integration and perceived effectiveness cannot be proposed to expand the UTAUT 2 model. The technology familiarity variable can be the variable proposed to expand the UTAUT 2 model. This study’s findings confirm the inconsistent relationship between the effect of intention to purchase apparel products on product purchase behavior that could be overcome by studying behavioral intention to use behavior using a longitudinal method. Implications of research through the data collection method involves two stages of research by collecting the same sample group, which is declared to be able to observe changes in customer behavior.

Several administrative areas in Bali are not ready for an effective spatial regulation for the tourism industry resulting in large-scale land conversion, including changes in productive agricultural land for tourism and other industrial needs. These changes allow environmental damage that threatens the performance and sustainability of tourism in Bali. The purpose of this study was to investigate the seven factors of ecotourism success, and their impacts on quality tourism experiences and sustainable tourism. The research was conducted in Bali by taking 200 samples from four village samples. The analysis used was Structure Equation Modeling (SEM) assisted by the Partial List Square (PLS) application. The results show that the research model yielded feasible Goodness of Fit. The results also show that ecotourism as a source of income was unable to support economic and infrastructure development. Community involvement had no significant impact on conservation efforts. Conservation had no impact on ecotourism performance. Services did not have any an impact on tourism performance. Thus, ecotourism as a source of income, community involvement, conservation and services as successful factors in improving ecotourism performance are strategic management priorities to build quality tourism experiences and sustainable tourism.

This study intends to evaluate the role that spiritual destination image plays in mediating the effects of attachment to virtual tours and the promotion of spiritual destinations through social media with the intention to revisit spiritual places in Bali. The research primarily examines individuals who have participated in tourism-related endeavors and visited spiritual destinations in Bali. A purposive selection strategy was used to choose a sample size of 160 tourists for the study. The analytical methodology employed in this study involves the utilization of Path Analysis, specifically implementing Structural Equation Modeling with Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The study found that emotional attachment with virtual tours improves the spiritual destination's image and intention to revisit. The impact of social media promotion on the perception and intention to revisit a spiritual place has been found to be substantial and beneficial. Furthermore, the portrayal of the spiritual destination has a notable and favorable impact on an individual's propensity to partake in subsequent visits. Furthermore, the image of a spiritual destination is able to mediate attachment to a virtual tour and social media promotion with the intention to revisit partially. Hence, it is imperative for managers overseeing spiritual destinations in Bali to consistently devise virtual tour models and employ social media promotions to enhance the image of these spiritual destinations. This strategic approach aims to augment tourists' inclination to visit such destinations, thereby fostering sustainable tourism practices in Bali.

Customer satisfaction positively affects self-brand connection. The SBC affects repurchase intention. Love for culinary brands cannot moderate self-brand connection on repurchase intention. Brand respect can moderate SBC on repurchase intention.

E-wallet usage in transactions during the Covid-19 pandemic is a cashless movement that supports breaking the chain of transmission of the Covid-19 virus. Intention to use E-wallet during the pandemic is high due to the stay-at-home recommendation that was enforced since the beginning of the breakdown of the first case in Indonesia. Several studies on technology acceptance have been carried out and this study presents a research framework by integrating technology acceptance model (TAM) and theory of planned behavior (TPB) to obtain more comprehensive results to increase technology acceptance intentions by adding virus fear and risk perception to the models that have been tested previously, since the research was conducted when the pandemic is ongoing. The results reveal that perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and perceived risk have a direct or indirect effects on attitudes toward using and behavioral intention to use, moderating results of fear of covid-19 on attitudes and intentions as well was found to significantly increase behavioral intention to use E-wallet during the Covid-19 pandemic.

The Covid-19 pandemic has a huge impact on the economy, which causes a substantial decline in the tourism sector. On the other hand, the detrimental impact of proactive measures taken to control the Covid-19 pandemic has had a negative impact on all industries around the world including tourism. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to learn on how trust can have an impact on the intention to revisit during the Covid-19 pandemic. The study uses 125 respondents from domestic tourists who visited Bali during the Covid-19 pandemic and had come to Bali before the Covid-19 pandemic. The study uses PLS as a statistical analysis. Our survey shows that while destination image influences intention, it does not have any meaningful effect on trust. Also, trust influences on intention, and experience influences positively on both trust and intention. In our survey, while social media marketing influences significantly on intention, it has no meaningful effect on trust.

This study proposes to explore the relationship between perceived risk, subjective norm, perceived value, and continuous usage intention via trust as a mediating variable. This research applied a survey which involved 320 IM users (160 from millennials and 160 from Zillennial) in Indonesia. The literature’s existing scales were used to operationalize the constructs proposed in this study. The analyses were conducted using partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) to test hypotheses. The results of the study show that there are differences in the results of the influence of perceived risk on continuous usage intention in the Millennial and Zillennial generations. The results of the study found that continuous usage intention received negative direct impact from perceived risk, positive direct effect from subjective norm, perceived value, and trust on Millennial. In addition, continuous usage intention received negative and not significant direct impact from perceived risk, positive direct effect from subjective norm, perceived value, and trust on Zillennial. The results are useful for instant messaging management into formulating strategies to retain their users in Indonesia. These findings provided theoretical and managerial contributions as well as future research directions.
