To address this gap, this study examined how employees’ behavioural intentions mediate the relationships between key technological, organisational, environmental, and social predictors and organisations’ decisions to adopt AI in the Chinese apparel manufacturing sector. We combined the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology with the technological-organisational-environmental framework and evaluated the resulting model using partial least squares structural equation modelling with paired responses from 200 managers and 200 technicians representing 200 Chinese small- and medium-sized apparel manufacturing firms. The results showed a significant negative indirect effect of performance expectancy (β = −0.081, <i>p</i> = .037) and significant positive indirect effects of peer influence (β = 0.232, <i>p</i> = .002) and regional context (β = 0.501, <i>p</i> &lt; .001) on organisational AI adoption decisions through employees’ behavioural intentions. For organisational AI adoption decisions, the model accounted for 71.4% of the observed variance. These findings highlight the mediating role of employees’ behavioural intentions in organisational AI adoption and provide theoretical and practical insights for promoting AI adoption in small and medium-sized enterprises in Chinese apparel manufacturing.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":555,"journal":{"name":"Fashion and Textiles","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2026-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1186/s40691-026-00497-4.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149338241","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Their mechanical, morphological, and electrical properties were evaluated, and non-destructive X-ray computed tomography (X-ray CT) was used to analyze the three-dimensional internal fiber assemblies. X-ray CT analysis revealed pronounced differences in packing density, helical structure, and turn length depending on the twist combination and sequence. Bicomponent yarns with higher internal packing density and shorter turn length exhibited increased inter-filament contact, resulting in a significant reduction in linear resistance. In particular, the PET-AP70/PET-AP70 structure exhibited the densest internal configuration and the lowest electrical resistance with minimal variation.

A scenario-based experiment with 346 participants was conducted, and the data were analyzed using PLS-SEM. Perceived objectivity and perceived persuasiveness were positively associated with brand trust, which inturn mediated their relationships with information acceptance intention and purchase intention.

Subgroup analyses further suggest a conditional pattern: among consumers with lower perceived brand luxury, the links between brand trust and behavioral intentions were stronger under AI communication, whereas no significant provider differences emerged among those with higher perceived brand luxury. As these results derivefrom split-sample multi-group comparisons rather than a formal interaction test, they should be regarded as subgroup-based evidence.

The analysis drew on 115 Instagram Reels from 20 fashion brands and 8,794 text-bearing public comments, with videos, captions, and comments examined as complementary case-level materials. The findings identified novelty, enjoyment, and curiosity about production technologies as conditions relevant to flow-related engagement, while familiarity with digital media and recognizable landmarks constituted contextual conditions.

Across the cases, visual shock and fantastical representation, concise messaging, and feedback and prompts for user communication and participation were identified as key action/interaction strategies. Observable audience responses included enjoyment, reported repeated viewing, comment-based interaction, product interest, purchase-oriented inquiry, and critical evaluation. Critical responses were particularly evident when users raised concerns about authenticity, sustainability, ethical responsibility, or creative originality. At a higher interpretive level, the findings were synthesized across cognitive, multisensory, and affective dimensions.

Three anti-vibration glove prototypes are developed with identical material stacks but different neoprene palm paddings: segment-based, gradient, and proximal interphalangeal joint-oriented paddings. Female participants perform six representative hand-use tasks under bare-hand and gloved conditions, and the outcomes are evaluated using forearm surface electromyography, hand-performance measures, and subjective ratings. The results show that all three gloves reduce grip strength and slow down pegboard screwing, but largely preserve the key pinch strength compared to the bare hand. Among the three designs, the glove with the continuous gradient palm padding shows the most favorable overall pattern, with better preservation of dexterity-related performance and the smallest increase in forearm muscle activity. The segmented layout is more often associated with poorer dexterity and higher forearm muscle activity during repetitive tasks. In contrast, the proximal interphalangeal joint-oriented layout shows more task-dependent effects, particularly in externally supported or load-transfer tasks. These findings suggest that palm padding configuration can influence dexterity and physiological demand independently of material composition.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":555,"journal":{"name":"Fashion and Textiles","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2026-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1186/s40691-026-00491-w.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149189128","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Products retrieved under the same hue-based query occupied broad and differently configured regions of L*–C* space, with the four assortments differing in their lightness and chroma ranges and regions of product concentration. Data-adaptive partitioning summarized these within-hue distributions into distinct cluster configurations. An exploratory comparison using an additional 800 images collected approximately six months later further showed that changes in distributional location, dispersion, and overall L*–C* composition varied across hue-specific assortments. These findings demonstrate that nominal hue labels provide only a partial representation of color variation within online fashion assortments.
