Abstract
The Internet is an integral part of every individual and is a means of business transaction, leading to the immense growth
of e-commerce in all sectors. This research study evaluates the significance of attitude as a mediating variable between
behavioural intention and overall satisfaction in apparel shopping using Partial Least Square – Structural Equation
Modelling with a bootstrapping approach for evaluating the hypothesis. A total of 227 consumers were surveyed using
a structured questionnaire and convenient sampling method with a cross-sectional method for collecting data. The
hypothesis states that there is a significant relationship between overall satisfaction effect & attitude, reputation & trust,
attitude & behavioural intention and trust & behavioural intention. Evidence of the partial mediation effect of attitude
between overall satisfaction and behavioural intention is also identified. The findings indicate that the model is valid and
has a good fit. Therefore, improved customer service and delivery service will help the corporate to uplift the
endogenous latent variable of Behavioural Intention.
