This study examines the effects of entrepreneurial orientation, social media, and managerial ties on the business performance of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Vietnam. In addition, the mediating effects of social media and managerial ties on the causal relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and firm performance is investigated. A total of 180 senior managers of SMEs were collected for data analysis by using partial least squares structural equation modeling. The results reveal that entrepreneurial orientation strongly enhances social media and managerial ties, which are determinants of business performance. Specifically, entrepreneurial orientation has no direct impact on firm performance; but the mediating effects were confirmed. Based on the results, our study highlights some theoretical contributions and suggests practical implications for practitioners in Vietnamese SMEs to improve firm performance effectively and efficiently.

Educational institutions worldwide are using online learning to provide students with continued education during the COVID-19 pandemic. The main purpose of this paper was to ascertain how facilitating conditions, social media, and ease of use, affect students’ perception towards online learning. During this pandemic, secondary school students were required to participate in full-time online learning. This study included 350 students from three regions in Jordan as a sample, and the results generated from the survey data were analyzed. Policy implications were established in this study to provide guidance to government agencies and schools on how to improve the delivery of online learning. Prospective research paths for future online learning research were suggested as well.

The purpose of this study is to look into Jordanian customers' purchasing habits in regard to electronic commerce. The goal of this research is to investigate the impact of social media on electronic commerce trust and purchasing behavior. Trust's impact on social commerce was also investigated. Furthermore, the influence of social commerce on electronic commerce purchasing behavior has been studied in greater depth. This study proposed a conceptual model, which was empirically tested with a survey of 150 Jordanians. The study's findings stated that social media and social commerce had a significant impact on Jordanians' purchasing behavior toward e-commerce. Besides that, trust has a significant impact on social commerce. Furthermore, social commerce influences e-commerce purchasing behavior. Because the study was limited to Jordan, one of the primary limitations of this study is that the results cannot be generalized. Similar studies in other countries are needed to either support or refute our findings.

This study aims to explore the impact of satisfaction and trust on stickiness to Facebook. Also, it proposed that hedonic value, emotional value, and social value act as critical antecedents to Facebook stickiness. A quantitative methodology is used to examine the research questions. The research model was tested with data from 511 university students and five academic professors using an online survey. The proposed hypotheses were tested using regression analysis. Furthermore, Data were collected from targeted participants with Facebook experience, among the 511 participants, 353 were females (69.1%), and 158 were males (30.9%). The SEM analysis showed that satisfaction positively and significantly did affect stickiness, where trust did not. Also, results showed while hedonic value affected satisfaction, it did not impact trust. Hence, the results confirmed that hedonic value served as important value concerns for Facebook users. Nevertheless, the study found that both emotional value and social value impacted satisfaction and trust. The current research has enriched the existing study in the fields of customers’ satisfaction and trust on stickiness to Facebook. Moreover, this research is one of the earliest studies that proved that customer value creation serves as an important driving factor for customer satisfaction to generate stickiness to SNS. This study’s results help policymakers and designers of SNS to understand what value factors affect users’ stickiness to Facebook. Their marketing plans and decisions can be accordingly adjusted. This study suggests that marketers need to pay full attention to social value by adding more interactive features such as comments, likes, and shares in order to build social image and increase one’s social influence.

Social media serves as a platform or a new area for developing innovation responsive to business advancement. As individuals are the source of knowledge in organizations, individual learning is the focus of organizational learning and development. Ambidexterity is an activity that requires individual learning. The study was carried out in Greater Jakarta, Indonesia. A personal survey questionnaire with convenience sampling was used to collect white-collar workers in Greater Jakarta. Rasch Model Analysis, specifically Person Measure Analysis, was used to filter for bias in the responses because the data was collected through personal references or self-report questionnaires. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) is used to test hypotheses based on the collected data. According to the statistical results, ambidexterity and social media learning experience significantly impact innovative behavior. It implies that ambidexterity and social media learning experience can improve white-collar workers' innovative behavior. Ambidexterity has a significant impact on the learning experience on social media. It implies that a person with greater ambidexterity will engage in more intense knowledge exploration and exploitation through social media. The study's findings also show that social media experience without ambidexterity has the least impact on innovative behavior. It implies that social media experience without exploratory and exploitative activities does not lead to innovative behavior.

The use of social media becomes a common habit in today's community and routinely used to interact with the community member. Also, many companies used social media to create a social media community concerning the products and services provided to strengthen the company's brand. This study surveys as many as 231 respondents and data analysis uses the PLS method utilizing smart PLS software. The result reveals that the use of information technology that is getting faster with high-speed data accessibility enhances the intensity of interaction between the community member with the path coefficient value of 0.605. Furthermore, the use of information technology with high-speed data accessibility also increase the satisfaction of movie trailer viewers with the path coefficient value of 0.392 since it can provide excitement and entertainment. Besides, the increased use of information technology provides higher satisfaction to the audience. The results also show that the presence of a social media community could provide satisfaction for movie trailer viewers with a coefficient of 0.332. The availability of films in the community provides excellent interactive communication between users. This research has focused only on the use of information technology in the respondents who watch movie trailers and is limited to a region of East Java province, Indonesia. Further research is required to be performed, which focuses on different types of social media and context and needs to analyze the comment of the film viewer in order to provide a better benefit on the latest films and for the entertainment company.
