“…When users expect digital technology improves their job performance; they tend to accept the technology (Al Khasawneh, 2015;Bhatiasevi, 2016;Chiu, Bool, & Chiu, 2017). Moreover, gender affects the influence of performance expectancy on the intention to use digital technologies (Mandari & Chong, 2018). Therefore, the following hypothesis is tested:…”

“…Unpredictable support of facilities results in lower pressure on the behavioral intention of using digital technologies, whereas predictable support of facilities positively influences use behavior (Attuquayefio, 2014). Moreover, gender influences the effect of facilitating conditions on use behavior (Venkatesh, Thong, & Xu, 2012).This is because men are task-oriented while women are easily affected by the surrounding environment to use digital technologies (Mandari & Chong, 2018). Therefore, the following hypothesis is tested:…”

“…Previous research has indicated that men and women decide differently to accept and use digital innovations (Mandari & Chong, 2018;Williams, Roderick, Rana, & Clement, 2016). Gender plays a significant role in predicting usage behavior in information system research (Venkatesh & Davis, 2000;Venkatesh et al, 2003).…”

Digital government innovation is being recognised as a solution to many problems faced by governments in providing services to their citizens. It is especially important for lowincome countries where there are resource constraints. This research was aimed at exploring the moderating effect of gender on the adoption of a digital government innovation in Ethiopia based on the UTAUT model (n=270) and using structural equation modeling (SEM). The results reveal that gender only moderates the relationship between facilitating conditions and usage behavior of government employees to adopt the digital government innovation which is inconsistent with other findings. Another key finding was that even though the innovation was regarded as not being easy to use, women identified that they would still use it because of the social influence from the peers and the bosses. This finding suggests that women government employees who obtain external support are more likely to use digital government innovations compared with men who are unlikely to use it even if they were facilitated. The paper recommends that governments of low-income countries like Ethiopia should design appropriate policies that encourage women in digital government.

“…Therefore, we also investigate the moderation effect of consumer perceived value on the association between trust in f-commerce and f-commerce usage intentions. Prior studies proved that the influence degree of each factor on individual behavioral intention varies in males and females ( Venkatesh et al, 2012 ; Mandari and Chong, 2018 ; Xie et al, 2021 ). The research of Sun and Zhang (2006) pointed out that men are more realistic and motivated by the need for achievement, while women are anxious and more vulnerable to the immediate environment when making decisions.…”

“…Information technology (IT) is a necessary part of organizations, and gender differences should study, where IT involve in working ( Shahbaz et al, 2020 ). It is imperative to study gender differences in social science research ( Van Slyke et al, 2010 ; Dutta et al, 2018 ; Mandari and Chong, 2018 ; Wang et al, 2019 ). In different societies, gender skills and perceptions are different regarding usage intention, and it should be studied when investigating consumer buying behavior ( Choudrie et al, 2010 ; Liébana-Cabanillas et al, 2018 ).…”

Considering the current global trend in the digital economy, Facebook commerce (f-commerce) is an indispensable component of today’s digital commerce. The purpose of this research is to test the proposed model to validate current theories that evaluate the relationships between online trust and customer f-commerce usage intentions. It has also been proposed to improve usage intention by integrating the relationship between perceived value and trust in electronic commerce (e-commerce). The data was gathered using a structured questionnaire and analyzed with structural equation modeling (SEM; n = 435). In this study, gender has been discussed as a moderating factor. The findings describe the positive relationships that exist between antecedents of trust and user intentions toward f-commerce. Furthermore, according to the findings of the study, females are more concerned than males about developing their intentions to utilize f-commerce for online shopping. Theoretical and practical implications are also presented in this study.

Sub‐Saharan Africa's adoption of inorganic fertilizer lags behind other developing nations, creating limitations for small‐holder cocoa producers. Using the Diffusion of Innovations (DOI) Theory, articles assessing inorganic fertilizer (non)adoption by cocoa producers in Sub‐Saharan Africa are reviewed. Factors influencing adoption fell into two major categories: socioeconomic characteristics of the potential adopter and characteristics of the innovation itself. Farm income, access to credit, labor requirements, and fertilizer price/availability are especially influential. Future studies and outreach efforts to consider the interplay of many personal, agronomic, and technological factors when promoting fertilizer adoption in cocoa farming are encouraged.
