“…To perform the method, we first conduct a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to test the validity and reliability requirements. CFA certifies the existence of content validity, convergent validity, discriminant validity and reliability (Dwivedi et al ., 2023). Following CFA, we use the SEM test.…”

PurposeThis study examines how dynamic capabilities (DCs) impact global value chain (GVC) upgrading and assesses the mediating role of innovation.Design/methodology/approachThe study uses a quantitative research method. The data are collected using an online questionnaire administered to respondents working in Chinese automobile manufacturers in China and Laos. The data are analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM) and related software.FindingsThe results show that DCs and innovation capabilities (ICs) positively affect GVC upgrading and that ICs plays a mediating role between DC and GVC upgrading. Dynamic capabilities evolution (CE) mediates the relationship between DCs, ICs and GVC upgrading. Finally, differences exist in the effects of the three dimensions of DCs on ICs and GVC upgrading.Practical implicationsFocusing on the absorption and transformation of knowledge, enterprises could experience a clear enhancement of IC and CE and be more likely to obtain higher marginal returns. The study provides insights for emerging market firms to gain higher added value in internationalization.Originality/valueThis study demonstrates that different dimensions of DCs have different effects on GVC upgrading. In terms of theory, the impact of IC is considered in terms of the mediating effect of CE on IC. Differences are highlighted concerning the impact of learning capability, integrating and coordinating capability and sensing capability on the mediated relationships.

“…Following CFA, we use the SEM test. We harness the maximum likelihood method to measure the estimations of the CFA and SEM models (Dwivedi et al ., 2023). The model in this study is a chain mediation model with multiple mediating variables and sequential effects among the mediating variables (Hayes, 2009).…”

“…The present paper employs IRT (Ram & Sheth, 1989; Ram, 1987; Sheth, 1981) and TTT (Stewart, 2003) to identify the extent to which sponsoring a sport mega‐event can engender trust in cryptoassets, and reduce barriers to adopting the technology. While these two theories are relatively dated, both have been utilised separately in recent technological advancements, particularly in the development of technologies (Frank et al, 2023; Leong et al, 2020; Roh et al, 2022) and indeed blockchain technology (Choi et al, 2020; Davidson et al, 2018; Dwivedi et al, 2023; Friedman & Ormiston, 2022).…”

“…Three papers utilise IRT to examine resistance to blockchain technology, within the context of supply chain. Choi et al (2020) and Dwivedi et al (2023) both find that functional barriers, specifically concerns related to security and privacy, are significant obstacles, with psychological barriers also playing a role (Friedman & Ormiston, 2022). However, these three studies primarily focus on business resistance to adopting blockchain technology, thereby highlighting a research gap concerning consumer resistance to crypto innovations and digital financial products and services.…”

“…Uncertainty and volatility are two main concerns and potential reasons for individuals failing to engage with and/or adopt crypto-related products.A lack of overall knowledge of crypto-related products and transparency around crypto organisations may increase one's hesitancy towards adoption. It is important to understand the various barriers, both functional (Choi et al, 2020;Dwivedi et al, 2023;Friedman & Ormiston, 2022) and psychological, in order to best prevent adoption resistance with newer and innovative products.…”

This research investigates the extent to which sponsorships can be utilised to foster trust and reduce barriers to adopting new technologies. Using Crypto.com's sponsorship of the 2022 FIFA World Cup as the context, this mixed‐methods study utilises innovation resistance theory (IRT) and trust transfer theory (TTT) to investigate the extent to which such a sponsorship can increase trust and reduce barriers in innovative technologies such as cryptoassets, while also filling a research gap concerning consumer resistance to innovations in digital financial products and services. The findings of study 1, using a survey (n = 1081), and study 2 using interviews (n = 24) reveal that a positive image of sponsorship significantly influences favourability and interest, and trust of the product of the sponsor which subsequently reduces psychological barriers to adoption. Integrating the theoretical viewpoints of IRT and TTT, this study enhances our conceptual understanding regarding the psychological dimension of sponsorship and the extent to which a sponsorship generates interest, giving assurance and trust in the sponsor's product, and removing uncertainty; thus, reducing barriers to adoption.

Conflicting Consumer Beliefs Influencing Eco‐Innovation Adoption: Motives and Barriers for Accepting the Laser Marking of Organic Products

In response to regulatory requirements and consumer demand for sustainable products, producers of organic products are beginning to use laser marking to reduce packaging and, thereby, packaging waste. However, the consumer responses to this “high‐tech” eco‐innovation remain unexplored. Using a mixed‐method approach, we collected qualitative and quantitative data on responses to the laser marking of organic products from 328 French participants. Guided by the theory of consumption values and innovation resistance theory, we conducted a thematic analysis of answers to an open‐ended question which probed consumers' motives for and barriers to adopting laser marking. The most frequently stated motive was ecological benefits, and the most reported barriers were risks and tradition. Structural equation modeling revealed that attitudes toward laser‐marked organic products are positively impacted by social, emotional, and functional values and are negatively impacted by barriers related to images and emotions. Consumers' attitudes toward laser‐marked organic products strongly affect their willingness to buy such products. To increase the acceptance of laser marking, managers and policymakers should mitigate false‐negative consumer perceptions, including doubts about its eco‐friendliness and safety, thereby facilitating greater acceptance of this eco‐innovation.
