This studies’ purpose is to understand what factors influence consumer acceptance in Germany. The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology model was expand using an incremental approach. The construct performance expectancy was replaced with the three context-specific constructs, environmental performance expectancy, speed expectancy, and relative advantage of contact-free delivery. Four perceived risk constructs (i.e., privacy risk, safety risk, noise risk, financial risk) were added. Eleven hypotheses were developed and tested via an online survey. The data were analyzed using structural equation modeling in Statistical Package for the Social Sciences. Relative advantage of contact-free delivery, hedonic motivation, and social influence are the highlights among the factors investigated for their influence on consumer acceptance. The influence on the perceived risk constructs privacy risk and safety risk varies depending on drone usage experience and gender. The value of the study stems from the proposed extended Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology model, tailored to a new technology context (drones for last mile parcel delivery) and a different cultural setting (Germany). This research contributes to the multidisciplinary approach of existing drone research by adding a consumer perspective to the mainly logistics provider-oriented engineering, informatics, and operations research.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47810,"journal":{"name":"Research in Transportation Economics","volume":"103 ","pages":"Article 101404"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-01-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0739885923001440/pdfft?md5=d0fe4f35e9f8ee732771ae9f9340d5b0&pid=1-s2.0-S0739885923001440-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139587281","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we use the car-sharing orders and GPS trajectory data of a company in Beijing, China, to discuss the competitive advantages, market, and development trends of car-sharing from the perspective of travel costs. By building a travel costs comparison model, we calculate the travel costs of car-sharing and taxis under the same travel scenario, comparing their cost differences in the dimensions of travel mileage, duration, utilization efficiency, etc., and locating the cost advantage space of car-sharing. Further, we discuss the impact of different elements of travel (such as time cost, waiting time, etc.) on the cost advantage of travel by car-sharing. The results reveal that, under the current pricing conditions, the cost advantage of car-sharing is particularly obvious when the rental duration is not too long (less than 14 h), the utilization efficiency is relatively high, and the stop time is shorter than 8 h. We also find that it makes great cost advantage of using car-sharing in periods or areas of urban taxi shortages. In the cases of short travel, car-sharing have bigger cost advantage for the middle and low-income groups. In addition, the popularity of bike-sharing can also increase the cost advantage of car-sharing, which indicates that the synergy of different travel models could promote the development of car-sharing. However, when people travel long, the cost advantage of car-sharing would be minimally affected by the elements, such as people's income and the development of bike-sharing. In other words, car-sharing would keep its cost advantage in the cases of long travel, especially when its utilization efficiency is high and the travel stop time is short.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47810,"journal":{"name":"Research in Transportation Economics","volume":"103 ","pages":"Article 101407"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139436081","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Blurring the lines between offline and online shopping, concepts like “Buy-Online-Pickup-In-Store” (BOPIS) and “Buy-In-Store-Ship-Direct” (BSSD) are increasingly becoming accepted in retail operations. While many retailers are still in a nascent phase of integrating online channels and physical stores, consumer-centric studies are called for to investigate the diffusion of these new strategies in the evolving marketplace. Our study explores the key adoption determinants of these new omnichannel strategies, focusing on the case of India. A detailed online survey was used to collect data for a sample of 311 Indian consumers. Econometric analysis<span> reveals the main purchase influencing factors. We find that a quick purchase process, elimination of product delivery delays, delivery and shipping costs, ease of receiving product, retail system reliability and, trust in retailer are key adoption determinants. Purchase returnability is only weakly associated with BOPIS purchase choices while payment security has no significant effect. Among six demographic variables, only gender and age are found to differ significantly between the two concepts. These insights from this study should be useful for retailers to design omnichannel strategies and for transport policy makers to predict the future growth of e-commerce related transport movements.</span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":47810,"journal":{"name":"Research in Transportation Economics","volume":"103 ","pages":"Article 101403"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2023-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139051298","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
