The presence of Apple's iPhone has become a significant entity surpassing mere communication functions. This research explores the dynamics linking social comparison, peer pressure, consumer innovativeness, and user satisfaction in the context of iPhone usage. Engaging 319 iPhone users in Indonesia through a comprehensive online survey, data was collected, and 150 respondents met the specified criteria. The study employs Partial Least Squares analysis using the SmartPLS4 software. Empirical findings reveal a positive correlation between social comparison and peer pressure, exerting a substantial influence on consumer innovativeness. Interestingly, social comparison also has a positive impact on consumer happiness. However, the research finds that while peer pressure significantly contributes to consumer innovativeness, it does not affect consumer happiness. This investigation underscores the crucial role of social comparison and peer pressure in shaping consumer innovativeness and happiness. The study elucidates the complex interaction between psychological and social factors. By understanding the desire to differentiate oneself and seek social acceptance, this research enhances our understanding of consumer decision-making in iPhone usage, facilitating diverse perspectives on technology as a crucial element in social identity construction.

The results showed that each variable has a fairly high criterion. Employee loyalty is significantly influenced by workplace spirituality and job satisfaction. The results demonstrate that workers who uphold spiritual principles at work are more likely to desire to remain with the company. The theoretical contribution of this study is that Generation Y employee loyalty can be increased by increasing job satisfaction and workplace spirituality. The growth of spiritual values needs to be supported by creating a spiritual work environment, providing fair remuneration is expected to foster loyal attitudes and behavior of employees.

The study analyzes variables such as Perceived Usefulness, Perceived Ease of Use, Content Richness, Interactivity, and Perceived Price from the perspective of Generation Z in Indonesia. Utilizing the Structural Model with Partial Least Squares (PLS), online questionnaires were distributed through social media, garnering 300 responses. Findings reveal that Perceived Price, Perceived Usefulness, and Perceived Ease of Use significantly influence the Willingness to subscribe to Netflix among Generation Z in Indonesia. Interactivity positively impacts Perceived Usefulness, while Content Richness lacks a significant influence. These results underscore the importance for streaming providers like Netflix to ensure perceived value in pricing, prioritize user-friendliness, and leverage interactive features for an enhanced subscription experience. Aligning content with user preferences remains crucial for a nuanced understanding of the content-user relationship within the digital landscape.","PeriodicalId":517707,"journal":{"name":"Manajemen dan Bisnis","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140497162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
