For this reason, there are no specific guidelines or manual provided to utilize visual merchandising elements inside the car showroom especially in automotive scene. By using strategic visual merchandising, car dealers can turn prospects into buyers. However, the visual merchandising elements must capture the emotion and perception of customers. Therefore, this study aims to identify the roles of visual merchandising inside a car showroom as stimuli that attract customers at the point of sale i.e. the car dealership and proposing emotional design approach in designing car showroom. By means of the proposed conceptual model, it should complement the current design approach in enhancing consumer purchasing behavior from the design perspectives. The conceptual framework has emerged from emotional design concept that allows the creation of desirable showroom design. As a result, this concept can be a guideline to facilitate marketer and dealer in designing a car showroom through visual merchandising elements.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101040,"journal":{"name":"Procedia Economics and Finance","volume":"37 ","pages":"Pages 412-417"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S2212-5671(16)30145-9","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91210054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to arrange the various socioeconomic elasticities of environmental pollution in order of priority, depending on the length of time period, to establish the most effective policy. We employed a simultaneous equations system to find out the various socioeconomic elasticities in the long run and short run in Iran during 1974-2012. Based on the results, per capita CO2 emissions, GDP, energy consumption show the strongest interactions (relationships and elasticities) in the equations system as a whole in the long run. Moreover, it is the trade openness, labour force, financial development, and urbanization which show the most decisive effects in the short run. So the effectiveness of the system variables depends on the time period. Trade openness, labour force, and financial development play the most leading role in the short run, notwithstanding their limited role in the long run. However, energy consumption elasticity of CO2 emissions and urbanization elasticity of energy consumption are among the largest elasticities both in short run and long run. Therefore, energy consumption, economic growth and urbanization should be reduced and financial sector should be grown to decrease the environmental pollution. Moreover, economic growth is an effective factor for the long run; and trade openness and financial development are effective for the short run but urbanization and energy consumption are influential for both the long run and short run policies.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101040,"journal":{"name":"Procedia Economics and Finance","volume":"36 ","pages":"Pages 414-424"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S2212-5671(16)30056-9","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"102961913","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Regardless of the great benefits in terms of innovation, the fast and nonstop growth of the mobile market has caused in some division of the platforms that support mobile device as an ideal platform for language learning applications for dominant languages such as English, Spanish and French in a fun and interactive devices. However, studies have yet to be conducted on the use of mobile technology in learning Kadazandusun language. Indeed, no empirical evidence of user acceptance on mobile apps as an effective medium to learn Kadazandusun language and demand a new study on how mobile technology such as mobile apps can help in preserving the language. Therefore, this conceptual paper discusses the user acceptance of the potentiality of mobile apps as an effective medium to learn Kadazandusun language, guided by the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). It is proposed that the users’ acceptance of using mobile apps in learning Kadazandusun language is influenced with their perceived usefulness of the mobile apps and their perceived ease of mobile apps use, which in turn influence their attitude towards mobile app usage and behavioral intention to use. Additional variables to the model includes content richness, user satisfaction, and perceived playfulness. Direction for future research is also presented.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101040,"journal":{"name":"Procedia Economics and Finance","volume":"37 ","pages":"Pages 372-378"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S2212-5671(16)30139-3","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73741991","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The questionnaires were filled by the respondents who already purchased green products at Parkson Bandar Utama. For this quantitative research, a total of 200 respondents participated in the survey. The study has found that green value has significant relationship with both perceived quality and repurchase intention. Emotional value has significant relationship with perceived quality.

Literature shows that these firms play an important role for economic growth of a country, however in Italy a high degree of academic spin offs doesn’t survive for a long time. Managerial competences, corporate governance attributes and financial structure could explain these phenomenon. This study observes a sample of Italian academic spin offs established in the last five years: primary data on corporate governance, industry, ownership structure, financial aspects are taken from the National Register of Firms, University (parent organization) and company website. Statistics show relevant relations between firm performance and corporate governance attributes and confirmed, after the start-up, the inefficiency of the board of directors in which there is an overlapping between academic-founder and manager, suggesting greater openness to outside expertise.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101040,"journal":{"name":"Procedia Economics and Finance","volume":"39 ","pages":"Pages 412-421"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S2212-5671(16)30342-2","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78120184","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
