A sample of 450 respondents was collected from online questionnaires using the multi-stage sampling technique of probability and non-probability sampling method for quantitative research to reach target respondents of experienced university students. The collected data were analyzed using the Structural Equation Model (SEM) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) to confirm the model fit and hypothesis testing.
