A study on consumers' attitude towards online shopping on Penang famous fruits pickles - FASS Final Project (Psychology).
No full textOnline shopping is no doubt the future trend. Online shopping on sectors such as fashion and accessories, electronic/electrical goods and books are growing in Malaysia. Many researches claimed that online shopping is still at the early stage of development in Malaysia and the potential for growth is inevitable. However, little is known about the acceptance of online shopping on localized products such as Penang famous fruit pickles and the factors which influence consumers’ attitudes purchasing it online. The purpose of this study is to identify the potential of online sales on Penang fruit pickles by investigating consumers’ attitudes towards purchasing Penang fruit pickles through online shopping as an alternative to visiting the physical shop. It also investigated the influence of factors (demographic profile, previous online shopping experience, perceived benefits, consumers’ lifestyles, and perceived merchants’ trustworthiness) towards attitude. In total 55 valid responses were gathered through self-administered questionnaire survey. The survey questionnaire consists of a total of 34 questions. The first 2 questions are for screening purpose to ensure only those who have either bought fruit pickles at any retail store before or at least like fruit pickles to take part in the survey. Pearson‘s Correlation and 1-way ANOVA were used to test hypotheses and determine the significance and degree of relationship between dependent and independent variables. The results and findings show that consumers exhibited positive intention to make an online purchase in future and attitude is positively and strongly correlated with behavioral intention. The study also concluded the perceived benefits of online shopping, perceived merchant’s trustworthiness, consumers’ lifestyle and consumers’ prior e-commerce experience have direct influence on attitude. On the contrary, demographic profile, online shopping frequency and duration of daily internet usage found to have no impact on attitude. The research model applying Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) can effectively be used to achieve the primary purpose of this study. Finally, future researches are suggested to improve the generalisability by selecting truly randomized and a larger sample size. The research should be conducted by inviting participants to take part in the survey through the actual website. The website should have been improvised with features that consumers prefer such as ease of transaction, security and trustworthiness. (Abstract by author

A Story of Edwardian Shopkeepers: Beatrix Potter’s Ginger and Pickles
No full textThe centre point of this article is one of Beatrix Potter's less well-known stories, Ginger and Pickles. Unusually, this story places animal characters in a business environment and confronts them with questions of commerce and law. The article aims to offer two complementary readings of this story. One examines the story's plot and sets its key themes (the importance of competition and credit, the problems caused by international trade, business failure and the role of the shop's customers) in their contemporary context. Since using a piece of literature as a reportage sketch on which to comment on past and present legal structures requires some engagement with the ambitions of literary criticism in children's literature. The article therefore also examines issues such as the place given to the author in constructing the meaning of a text, and the educative ambitions of children's literature. The influence of Potter's biography on her approach to children's literature is considered, along with the more general question of how genres of biography might produce an account of commercial and legal prudence in terms of character and action. The second reading compares Potter's rhetoric of commercial prudence with the current rhetoric of 'stakeholding'
