    (Bangkok : Assumption University Press, 2022) Wisuta Jaengprajak ; Sirion Chaipoopirutana
    The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the variables of customer experience, personal innovativeness, perceived innovation characteristics, perceived risk, attitude, and omnichannel shopping intentions, among fast fashion consumers in Thailand. A mixed methods approach was applied to develop the study’s research instrument, conducting a pilot study and focus group interviews. Data were subsequently collected from 690 fast fashion consumers with experience in using omnichannel retail services in Thailand, using online questionnaires and convenience sampling. However, only 449 responses were deemed usable for the analysis which used Mixed Methods research techniques, Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA), Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), and Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). Results revealed that only personal innovativeness, perceived innovation characteristics, and attitude, had a significant statistical relationship with omnichannel shopping intentions, while no significant relationship was found for customer experience and perceived risk. Findings also verified that the relationship between omnichannel shopping intentions and customer experience, as well as the relationship with personal innovativeness, was mediated by perceived innovation characteristics. Additionally, new sets of sub-variables were identified for customer experience and perceived innovation characteristics that were unique to the Thai culture and retail context using mixed methods and EFA. It was found that there were seven dimensions of omnichannel customer experience, namely consistency, connectivity, personalisation, accessibility, order fulfilment, flexibility, and retailer responsiveness. Regarding perceived innovation characteristics, the study confirmed that usefulness, compatibility, and ease of use, remained suitable subcomponents.

The data analysis was implemented by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) including goodness of model fit, reliability and validity. Additionally, structural equation modeling (SEM) was applied for hypotheses testing. Results: The results showed that reasons against organic food consumption, reason for organic food consumption, health consciousness and social influence significantly influence attitudes. Furthermore, reasons against organic food consumption, reason for organic food consumption and attitudes significantly influence online purchase intention.

    (Assumption University Press, 2016) Pannawit Sanitnarathorn
    This study presents a conceptual framework, using structural equation modeling, of the variables that influence Thai digital music piracy. From both the 1997 and 2008 economic turmoil to the technological leaps from cassettes, to CDs, to the Internet and the related peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing technologies, the Thai music industry has and continues to witness tumultuous times. More recently, broadband and Internet enabled smart phones have exacerbated the issues swirling around digital music piracy and the loss of revenue to both the music label houses and their artists. This study is therefore focused on the variables that contribute to factors influencing piracy. Music labels and artists need to understand the motives that cause users willingness to embrace illegal downloading and develop methods and markets to counter this act which is making business unsustainable.
