The path to cashless transaction: A study of user intention and attitudes towards quick response mobile payments

This study explores the factors influencing users' behavioral intentions, attitudes and actual adoption of quick response (QR) mobile payment in the least developed country (LDC) of Bangladesh, by extending the original unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) model. The study conducts a mixed-methods investigation by combining the partial least squares (PLS) and focus group discussion (FGD) methods to empirically evaluate the research model and cross-validate the findings. Using purposive sampling, data were gathered from 412 respondents, followed by 10 respondents who took part in the FGD, who all met the sample criteria. The study findings indicate that performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and social influence significantly positively influence users' behavioral intention, while self-concept, perceived self-efficacy, and habit substantially influence their attitudes towards using QR mobile payments. The findings also confirm a positive effect of users’ attitudes toward using QR mobile payment on both behavioral intention and actual use, and a positive effect of behavioral intention on the actual use of QR mobile payments. These findings offer several important theoretical and managerial implications.

Manipulations of the context-response relationship reduce the expression of response habits

Habitual instrumental behaviour is believed to rely on stimulus–response (S–R) associations. However, the method most commonly used to identify habitual behaviour, outcome devaluation, provides only indirect evidence of S-R control. Therefore, it is important to have a better understanding of the S-R association believed to underlie habitual responding. Under free-operant conditions, the context itself likely serves as at least part of the relevant stimuli in the association, and so modifications to the predictive power of the context should alter the expression of habits. The following experiments investigated how changes to the relationship between the training context and performance of the response, either by changing the context during testing or by exposing animals to the context alone, without the response lever present, impacted behavioural control during a devaluation test. We found evidence that the training context is important for the expression of habits; testing animals in a different context than where they were trained resulted in increased goal-directed control (Experiment 1). Furthermore, context alone exposure also increased goal-directed control with animals that received context alone exposure showing stronger devaluation effects, whether the context alone exposure happened on the last day of training (Experiment 2) or throughout training (Experiment 3). These findings are consistent with prior reports that the training context is important for the expression of habits and extends these findings by using sensory-specific satiety as a means for devaluation and by using context alone exposure to alter behavioural control.

Social media use is predictable from app sequences: Using LSTM and transformer neural networks to model habitual behavior

The present paper introduces a novel approach to studying social media habits through predictive modeling of sequential smartphone user behaviors. While much of the literature on media and technology habits has relied on self-report questionnaires and simple behavioral frequency measures, we examine an important yet understudied aspect of media and technology habits: their embeddedness in repetitive behavioral sequences. Leveraging Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and transformer neural networks, we show that (i) social media use is predictable at the within and between-person level and that (ii) there are robust individual differences in the predictability of social media use. We examine the performance of several modeling approaches, including (i) global models trained on the pooled data from all participants, (ii) idiographic person-specific models, and (iii) global models fine-tuned on person-specific data. Neither person-specific modeling nor fine-tuning on person-specific data substantially outperformed the global models, indicating that the global models were able to represent a variety of idiosyncratic behavioral patterns. Additionally, our analyses reveal that individual differences in the predictability of social media use were not substantially related to differences in the frequency of smartphone use in general or the frequency of social media use, indicating that our approach captures an aspect of habits that is distinct from behavioral frequency. Implications for habit modeling and theoretical development are discussed.

Physical literacy-based intervention for older adults: a cluster randomized controlled trial study protocol.

The ageing population creates concerns and challenges worldwide. The large number of older adults (aged over 65) in Hong Kong continues to rise as people live longer. This may result in heavy burdens on public services and problems such as a shortage of medical resources. The purpose of this study is to implement a physical literacy-based intervention among older adults in Hong Kong in order to achieve the goal of health promotion. A two-arm cluster randomized controlled trial will be employed in this proposed study. Ten daycare centers for the older adults in Hong Kong will be invited to participate in this study. The intervention group will receive functional fitness training and mastering physical literacy class twice a week with buddy peer support, and they will be asked to keep a reflective writing journal on a daily basis for 12 weeks in total. Participants will be evaluated at baseline (week 0), post-intervention (week 12), and at 6-week follow-up (week 18). This will consist of objective and self-reported measures covering elements within physical literacy (i.e., physical competence, motivation and confidence, knowledge and understanding) and also physical activity levels on an individual basis. The study intends to introduce a conceptual framework of physical literacy for the older adults through an intervention that allows older people to develop daily behaviour habits, which should promote active ageing for the older adults and greater self-esteem in later life. After this study, participants may share their positive experiences, and encourage their peers in the community to become physically literate in the future. In the long run, due to the feasibility and sustainability of these potential programs, this proposed study has the potential to connect seniors through social engagement and contribute to healthy living. Clinical trial approval from the National Library of Medicine (Reference number: NCT06137859).

Exploring the impact of goals and motivation on young consumers’ sustainable plastic management behavior using the Theory of Reasoned Goal Pursuit

Despite literature suggesting the importance of goals and motivation in pro-environmental behavior, its implication for predicting consumers’ sustainable plastic management behavior (SPMB) is limited. This paper adopted the Theory of Reasoned Goal Pursuit (TRGP) to predict young consumers’ SPMB, which includes plastic consumption reduction and proper disposal of plastic waste. Data was collected by surveying 336 respondents from a developing country - Bangladesh. Partial least square-based structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was used to analyze data. The result shows a significant impact of active procurement and approval goals on attitude and subjective norms, respectively, that lead to the formation of motivation. Furthermore, it was found that individuals’ motivation significantly impacts their intention, eventually leading to pro-environmental behavior (i.e., SPMB). This research contributes by providing deeper insight into the underlying mechanism of how the active procurement goal (i.e., pro-environmental goals), active approval goal, and motivation interact with other factors to reshape individuals’ SPMB. In addition, this paper provides further evidence on the implication of TRGP in habitual type pro-environmental behavior context. Finally, this paper offers solid suggestions for practitioners to promote circular economy practices at the consumer level to fight against plastic pollution.

The ‘Carrot Test’: An approach to characterize individual differences in oral processing behaviour and eating rate

BackgroundEating rate is a modifiable risk factor for obesity and efficient methods to objectively characterise an individual’s oral processing behaviours could help better identify people at risk of increased energy consumption. Many previous approaches to characterise oral processing and eating rate have relied on specialised equipment or wearable devices that are time consuming, expensive or require expertise to administer. The current trial used video-coding of the consumption of a standardised test food (the ‘carrot test’) to measure oral processing. ObjectiveWe sought (i) to test whether self-reported eating rate (SRER) is predictive of food oral processing derived from coded eating behaviours captured in the laboratory with a standardised test food, and (ii) to test whether differences in SRER are predictive of oral processing behaviours, eating rate and intake of a test meal. MethodsTwo hundred and fifty-three volunteers (86 male and 167 female, mean age 39.5 ± 13.6 years, mean BMI 22.2 ± 3.4 kg/m2) provided their SRER and anthropometric measurements of height, weight and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) percentage fat mass. Participants were also video recorded eating a fixed 50 g portion of carrot and an ad libitum lunch meal of fried rice. Average eating rate (g/min), bite size (g) and number of chews per bite for the carrot and lunch were derived through behavioural coding of the videos. Energy intake (kcal) was recorded at lunch and a later afternoon snack. ResultsFaster SRER significantly predicted faster eating rate, larger bite size and more chews per bite observed during intake of the carrot (ß = −0.26–0.21, p ≤ 0.001) and the lunch (ß = −0.26–0.35, p ≤ 0.014). SRER did not significantly predict intake at lunch or during the afternoon snack (ß = 0.05–0.07, p ≥ 0.265). Participants’ oral processing of the carrot significantly predicted oral processing of the lunch (ß = −0.25–0.40, p ≤ 0.047) and faster eating rate of the carrot significantly predicted increased lunch intake (ß = 0.119, p = 0.045). None of the oral processing behaviours predicted afternoon snack intake (ß = −0.01–0.05, p ≥ 0.496). None of these associations were moderated by BMI or body composition. ConclusionWe confirm that SRER is a valid measure of group level differences in individual oral processing behaviours, but did not predict an individual’s energy intake at a lunch-time meal. With this approach, it is possible to characterise differences in eating rate by coding eating behaviours for a standardized test food (in this case, a fixed portion of raw carrot). This approach could be used to provide an objective measure of a person’s habitual oral processing behaviour, and was shown to be a significant predictor of eating rate and energy intake for a later test meal.

Human Factors in AI-Driven Digital Solutions for Increasing Physical Activity: Scoping Review.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to enhance physical activity (PA) interventions. However, human factors (HFs) play a pivotal role in the successful integration of AI into mobile health (mHealth) solutions for promoting PA. Understanding and optimizing the interaction between individuals and AI-driven mHealth apps is essential for achieving the desired outcomes. This study aims to review and describe the current evidence on the HFs in AI-driven digital solutions for increasing PA. We conducted a scoping review by searching for publications containing terms related to PA, HFs, and AI in the titles and abstracts across 3 databases-PubMed, Embase, and IEEE Xplore-and Google Scholar. Studies were included if they were primary studies describing an AI-based solution aimed at increasing PA, and results from testing the solution were reported. Studies that did not meet these criteria were excluded. Additionally, we searched the references in the included articles for relevant research. The following data were extracted from included studies and incorporated into a qualitative synthesis: bibliographic information, study characteristics, population, intervention, comparison, outcomes, and AI-related information. The certainty of the evidence in the included studies was evaluated using GRADE (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation). A total of 15 studies published between 2015 and 2023 involving 899 participants aged approximately between 19 and 84 years, 60.7% (546/899) of whom were female participants, were included in this review. The interventions lasted between 2 and 26 weeks in the included studies. Recommender systems were the most commonly used AI technology in digital solutions for PA (10/15 studies), followed by conversational agents (4/15 studies). User acceptability and satisfaction were the HFs most frequently evaluated (5/15 studies each), followed by usability (4/15 studies). Regarding automated data collection for personalization and recommendation, most systems involved fitness trackers (5/15 studies). The certainty of the evidence analysis indicates moderate certainty of the effectiveness of AI-driven digital technologies in increasing PA (eg, number of steps, distance walked, or time spent on PA). Furthermore, AI-driven technology, particularly recommender systems, seems to positively influence changes in PA behavior, although with very low certainty evidence. Current research highlights the potential of AI-driven technologies to enhance PA, though the evidence remains limited. Longer-term studies are necessary to assess the sustained impact of AI-driven technologies on behavior change and habit formation. While AI-driven digital solutions for PA hold significant promise, further exploration into optimizing AI's impact on PA and effectively integrating AI and HFs is crucial for broader benefits. Thus, the implications for innovation management involve conducting long-term studies, prioritizing diversity, ensuring research quality, focusing on user experience, and understanding the evolving role of AI in PA promotion.

The Impact of Mouth Masks on Oral Hygiene Status, Seeking Dental Care, Esthetics, and Temporomandibular Joint Disturbances Among the Adult Population in Nellore District: A Cross-sectional Study

Abstract Background: Despite preventing infection transmission, because of its prolonged use, the impact of masks on social life, behavior, and oral hygiene status and habits of everyday people are still unknown. The knowledge of the changes in patients’ esthetic complaints, perceptions, and habits with the use of masks is essential for clinicians. Aim and Objectives: The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of the continuous use of face masks on oral hygiene habits; dental, smile and oral conditions, and self-perception; current reasons to seek dental care; and the importance attributed to teeth and smile esthetics among the adult population (students/employees) who wear masks 6 h per day for 6 months from August 30, 2021 to February 28, 2022. Materials and Methods: An electronic survey (Google Forms) was used to generate a web-based platform for the responses in the form of a questionnaire. A link to the structured questionnaire was posted on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and WhatsApp. The study considered all the individuals willing to participate, and the subjects were informed about the survey’s objectives. Data Analysis Method: The recorded data were analyzed using the SPSS software. Proportions were compared using the Chi-square test. P < 0.05 was selected to denote statistical significance with the confidence level, and the significance level was set at 95% and 5%, respectively. Conclusion: The study gave the current status of participants and their motivational levels toward seeking dental treatment, suggesting further studies in planning preventive strategies for the participants.

Effectiveness of Ultraviolet Radiation and Disinfectant Wipes in Reducing the Microbial Contamination of Mobile Phones in a Tertiary Care Hospital.

Background As mobile phones act as a potential source of microbial contamination, particularly in a hospital environment, the effectiveness of two most debated interventions namely ultraviolet radiation and disinfectant wipes in reducing the microbial contamination of mobile phones is compared. Objective To screen the mobile phones of healthcare personnel for the presence of microorganisms and to compare the effectiveness of ultraviolet radiation and disinfectant wipes in reducing microbial contamination. Methods and materials Pre-intervention and post-intervention swabs were collected before and after the use of each intervention respectively using 56 samples and cultured for growth in nutrient agar. Agar plates are subjected to quantitative analysis using bacterial colony count to reflect the efficacy of the specific intervention used. The data collected was entered in Microsoft Excel (Microsoft® Corp., Redmond, WA, USA) and analysis was done using standard statistical packages. Results While comparing the pre-intervention bacterial load with the post-intervention load, post-intervention bacterial contamination in terms of colony-forming units/CFU has drastically reduced after both interventions, which is validated by statistical significance. However, it was observed participants using disinfectant wipes as intervention had 2.07 times higher chance of having a low bacterial load which wasn't statistically significant. Conclusion Our study shows that with the use of any intervention from the above-mentioned interventions, bacterial loador bacterial contamination can be reduced significantly, thuspointing out that both ultraviolet radiation and disinfectant wipes are effective in reducing contamination of mobile phones. It was also found that male doctors have more bacterial load than females, which can be minimized by effectively changing behavioral habits.

Lifestyle and Chemicals: Exploring Behavioral Habits Related to Endocrine Disruptor Exposure Among the General Population of Saudi Arabia.

Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) interfere with hormonal systems, potentially causing metabolic, reproductive, and neurological issues, as well as hormone-related cancers. Found in everyday products, EDCs accumulate in body tissues over time, with adverse effects depending on the dose and duration of exposure. This study aims to explore behaviors related to EDC exposure among Saudi citizens to assess the need for further risk reduction interventions. This cross-sectional study employed a validated, self-administered online questionnaire to assess daily life behaviors associated with EDC exposure. A total of 563 participants were recruited using convenient sampling through online platforms. The study revealed that a significant majority of participants were aged 18-25 years (48.67%, n=274). On average, participants scored 32.78 out of a maximum of 60 for potential EDC exposure, with scores ranging from 13 to 54 points. The majority (85.26%, n=480) fell into the moderate potential exposure category, while a small minority (4.26%, n=24) exhibited high potential risk based on their reported daily habits, predominantly among male participants (95.83%, n=23). A significant majority (72.65%, n=409) indicated a likelihood of adopting lifestyle changes to reduce exposure to harmful substances. This study reveals diverse behavioral patterns linked to endocrine disruptor exposure among the general population in Saudi Arabia. Interestingly, the participants showed a positive attitude and willingness to change their risky behaviors. These findings underscore the necessity for educational programs and public health campaigns aimed at addressing gaps in knowledge. Encouraging the public to adopt behaviors that reduce exposure is essential to minimizing the potential long-term effects of EDCs.

MYSTIC, SUPERSTITIONS AND SOCIETY: AN EXPLORATION OF THE BELIEF NARRATIVES OF KAKCHING

In the modern age, where science and rational thinking have taken the reign over everyday life, it may seem like the world of superstitions is a chronicle of the past. However, it is still embedded into the present society as it is a habitual behavior which has been ingrained by the older generation of society. So, where does these superstitious beliefs come from and in what form do they exist in this day and age where science has become the solution for every question? The answer lies in folklore and its narratives, which have stemmed from the society. The paper will focus on the belief narratives which have been used to create an avenue for the superstitions within the belief system as well as validate such beliefs. The creation of the belief system is as old as the society itself. Traditionally, they are transmitted orally through generations, amalgamating into the pedagogical space of the society. In the old days, circumstances or situations caused either by nature or supernatural forces were explained through these narratives, which made it easier for the members of society to accept them. Belief narratives take the form of independent narratives or are integrated into other folk narratives, especially myths and legends. Generally, since myths and legends are believed to be factual and historical, they are rarely questioned by the people, thereby assimilating into the identity and belief system of the society. As such, the paper will bring forth the belief narratives of Kakching and question their position within contemporary society. Furthermore, by analyzing the socio-cultural elements embedded within these narratives, it will help the readers understand how these narratives have helped in shaping the social, cultural and behavioral patterns of the people of Kakching.

HELP PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY TO BUILD MEANINGFUL PERSONALIZED HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Unlike the consumer industry, biopharma, medical technology, and wellness companies have struggled to build meaningful, personalized patient and healthcare professional (HCP) experiences. The increase in drug launches and growing competition across therapy areas has made it challenging for brands and organizations to stand out from the crowd, whether for new molecules vs. legacy brands in an established treatment area and their generic counter-parts or for new molecules in a rare disease where trust is not yet earned. The customers’ needs and preferences are changing at lightning speed. The hierarchy of engagement has transformed, disrupting the dynamic between patients and healthcare professionals. Studies (1, 2) show that drug marketers too often turn various aspects of their product profile into signals – and may inadvertently “reinforce the habitual behavior the marketer is trying to change”. We encourage pharmaceutical companies to use a “data-driven approach to uncover new opportunities for growth” and improvement, and we’re committed to delivering results that make a difference for the patient, HCPs and for the system (value-based healthcare approach). Applying the Brand Leadership Circle, a new strategic tool, will help understand the patients’ journey and other stakeholders’ needs to implement successful approaches in marketing, communications and services using systematic research methods and techniques.

NEUTRALIZING EMOTIONS IN EARLY CHILDREN

Humans have a characteristic of imitative behavior, including children. Good or bad behavior, good or bad behavior, good or bad habits, are all formed in the social environment (home). Where this can happen due to children's observations of their parents. We must understand the management of emotions in children properly. Because it could be that the emotions conveyed by children are an affirmation or confirmation of the behavior that we as parents exemplify or the application of what we teach. Parents do have more experience than children so they teach their children what they have experienced or know. From the results of the study, it was found that there are still many parents who do not properly capture their children's emotions. So that good emotional management for children has not been achieved. Neutralizing emotions in this child was ultimately chosen as material used for community service activities. With the aim that parents know so they can properly capture their children's emotions. Apart from that, it is also hoped that there will be no incidents of parental violence towards children. This community service was carried out in Rangkah Kidul Village, Sidoarjo. Attended by parents of kindergarten and elementary school students. The activity was carried out in 1 day with a preparation time of 5 weeks. The activity ran smoothly with a total of 56 parents invited and 46 parents attending

Psychometric evaluation of the Self-Report Habit Index for assessing habitual e-cigarette use behavior in high school adolescents

BackgroundE-cigarettes are the most-used nicotine product among adolescents, but limited psychometrically-sound, e-cigarette-relevant measures exist for adolescents. We examined psychometric properties of the Self-Report Habit Index (SRHI) for assessing adolescents’ habitual e-cigarette use. MethodsDuring Fall 2022, 4855 students from eight Connecticut high schools completed an anonymous survey. The analytic sample comprised 491 students who reported past-month e-cigarette use and completed the SRHI (Age M=15.94, SD=1.24 years, 56 % female, 37.1 % Hispanic, 57.6 % White). We examined the SRHI’s latent factor structure; internal reliability; measurement invariance and between-groups differences (e.g., nicotine vs. nicotine-free vaping); and associations with total e-cigarette flavors used in the past month, past-30-day vaping frequency, and e-cigarette dependence. ResultsThe SRHI’s 6-item, 1-factor structure was confirmed. Internal reliability was excellent. The SRHI was scalar invariant for all subgroups tested. Nicotine (vs. nicotine-free) and daily (vs. non-daily) e-cigarette use were associated with greater habitual e-cigarette use behavior. In adjusted models, habitual e-cigarette use was associated with using more e-cigarette flavors, vaping more frequently, and greater e-cigarette dependence. Habitual e-cigarette use incrementally accounted for variance in past-month flavors used and vaping frequency beyond dependence. ConclusionsThe SRHI evidenced solid psychometric properties for assessing habitual e-cigarette use behavior among high school students. Relationships between habitual use and frequency of use, e-cigarette flavors, and dependence might be expected as these constructs are associated with the three characterizing features of habitual behaviors: frequent repetition, cue-driven elicitation, and automaticity. Future prospective research can clarify the temporal ordering of habitual e-cigarette use and dependence in adolescents.

Analyzing the Shortcomings in Smart Healthcare for Remote Home Care-A Case Study of the Taiwan Market.

In Taiwan, remote healthcare initially focused on telemedicine, with systematic development starting in 2007 through the "Remote Care Pilot Program" and subsequent initiatives. Significant advancements came with the "Remote Health Care Services Development Plan" in 2010, which integratedArtificial intelligence and Information and communications technologies, enhancing smart healthcare in home care. This study investigated strategic gaps in smart healthcare applications for remote home care using a mixed-methods approach, particularly the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). This study identified and ranked strategic gaps, including "legal regulations", "economic factors", "user behavior habits", "policy and culture", and "environment and technology". Findings, based on in-depth interviews with 6 experts and 16 AHP questionnaire samples, highlight "legal regulations" and "user behavior habits" as critical areas needing attention. Addressing these gaps can improve user acceptance and the effectiveness of smart healthcare applications, providing valuable insights for future research and practice in making remote home care more comprehensive and efficient.

Designing data-informed support for building learning habits in the Japanese K12 context

While building proper learning habits has been said to enhance academic performance, it is challenging to give long-term support for building habits in educational contexts due to the lack of continuous tracing of one’s habitual behaviors. With the accumulation of learning logs and the advancement of Learning Analytics (LA) techniques, this paper illustrates the data-informed support for building learning habits, which involves persuading one to change behaviors. Specifically, we tackled 2 research objectives following the Persuasive Systems Design (PSD) model. First, we defined indicators of learning habits from log data and analyzed 115,340 learning logs of 96 learners from a Japanese junior high school. As a result, the learners’ types of habits could be detected even though some might not be efficient and the stages of habits fluctuated over time. We also identified differences when comparing the learning habits extracted from the log data with those reported in the questionnaire. Second, based on the understanding of the learner profiles, we designed elements of an LA dashboard to support habit-building by applying the design principles from the PSD model. Overall, the learners recognized the feasibility of integrating data-informed support into their daily learning. Therefore, we look forward to the evidence of its effectiveness on the behavior change that can be depicted by the transition between stages of different types of learning habits.
