“…Perceived risk is defined as "the potential loss perceived by a consumer when considering the purchase of trave online compared to the purchase of travel offline" (Amaro & Duarte 2015: 64). An activation of one's cognitive response is endorsed when one is able to judge between the magnitude of benefits and risks (Jung, Hur & Kim 2015). It has been reported that consumers tend to conduct minimal dealings with a service and related parties when they have high risk and lack of trust in them (Gefen, Karahanna & Straub 2003).…”

Research into the effect of users' trust in social media for travel consumption remains unaddressed within tourism literature. Hence, the principal goal of this research is to examine factors influencing users' trust in travel information provided in social networking services (SNS). Multiple regression analysis was the chosen method of data analysis to assess the hypothesized relationships. The findings revealed that users' trust in travel information provided by SNS is heavily linked with perceived values. Users are heavily reliant on SNS as they consider SNS as reliable avenues to obtain recent travel information at anytime and anywhere to aid their decision making. At the same time, they are still concerned that their personal detailss are being misused by others without their consent. The quantitative results delivered instrumental understanding to the tourism-related organizations regarding the significant factors affecting users' trust in travel information provided by SNS. It is vital for them to strongly uphold users' trust the travel information by outlining effective marketing strategies and persuasive advertising campaigns regarding the companies' travel products and services via the SNS which could trigger travel consumption and destination visit intentions and behaviours. Suggestion for future research is also presented.

“…Most of the studies conducted to date have been based on the abovementioned models and theories. Some researchers have focused on confirmatory studies (Park, Yang et al 2007, Chen, Kuan 2012) based on existing theories and models, while others have extended TAM (Choi, Totten 2012), UTAUT (Wang, Wang 2010, Jung, Hur et al 2015, and TTF (Shih, Chen 2013) by incorporating various context-specific constructs or integrating these models with theories. Moreover, some studies have investigated the determinants of the main variables of wellestablished theories.…”

“…Specifically, Japanese people tend to prefer more socially-present and information rich channel. Some other cross-country studies were conducted in various contexts such as mobile commerce (Dai, Palvi 2009), mobile TV (Choi, Totten 2012), smartphones (Jung, Hur et al 2015). The results of those studies indicated that culture affects the adoption process.…”

“…Our literature review indicated that a number of studies have integrated original well-established models with additional constructs specifically related to the context under study. For example, perceived playfulness in a study on the mobile Internet (Wang, Wang 2010) perceived credibility; trust in smartphone adoption study (Jung, Hur et al 2015); and financial cost in a mobile banking study (Yu 2012) were tested. In the current study, PS is tested as an additional variable in UTAUT.…”

“…In many previous studies, authors have focused on constructs relevant to that specific context such as perceived fees on the mobile Internet (Kim, Chan et al 2007) and trust in smartphone adoption study (Jung, Hur et al 2015). If a conventional mobile phone user wants to move to a smartphone he/she will have to make some form of sacrifice, which might be monetary or non-monetary (Baker, Parasuraman et al 2002).…”

Rapid development of smartphone technologies in Asian countries has increased the demand of mobile banking in financial services and mobile commerce. Current research is conducted for mobile banking adoption in China and Pakistan. The social influence was added with technology acceptance model to investigate the direct effect on individuals' intention. Moderating role of cultural values was explored in the proposed model. Empirical study was performed for the data received from both countries to examine the developed model. Multiple and hierarchical regression analyses (IBM SPSS software) were carried out to test the proposed hypotheses. We have observed that perceived usefulness, social influence, and perceived ease of use are significant predictors of individuals' intentions to adopt m-banking in Pakistan, whereas the perceived usefulness is an important predictor in China. The moderating role of cultural values was observed as dampening factor in positive relationship between social influence and individuals' intentions.
