Indonesia fashion industry is rapidly growing, driven by high household consumption and widespread social media use. Instagram Ads, a popular tool for digital marketing, provides targeted advertising features. However, limited research explores user perceptions influencing its adoption, particularly in the fashion sector. This study investigates factors affecting the intention to use Instagram Ads by applying constructs from the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), including perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, trustworthiness, and attitudes toward Instagram Ads. A quantitative approach was used with Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). Data were collected from Instagram Ads users in the fashion industry, testing nine hypotheses to assess relationships between key variables. The results indicate that perceived ease of use positively influences perceived usefulness (H1), trustworthiness (H2), and attitudes toward Instagram Ads (H3). Perceived usefulness impacts trustworthiness (H4), attitudes (H5), and intention to use Instagram Ads (H6). While trustworthiness affects attitudes (H7), it does not directly influence intention to use Instagram Ads (H8). Attitudes significantly determine intention to use Instagram Ads (H9). This study extends previous research by highlighting the role of ease of use and perceived usefulness in shaping user attitudes and trust. The findings offer practical implications for businesses looking to optimize digital marketing strategies and theoretical contributions by integrating TAM and TPB in a social media advertising context.

Fri, 14 Mar 2025 00:00:00 +0000

The Moayat River in Kotamobagu, North Sulawesi, plays an important roleas a water source to meet the needs of the local community. However, water management in this area faces significant challenges due to seasonal discharge fluctuations, changes in land cover, and increasing water demand. This study aims to analyze the water availability of the Moayat River based on surface water conditions and current water demand assessments, future water demand projections, and water balance evaluations. The results show that current water availability is sufficient to meet domestic water needs. However, surface water conditions are influenced by climate change indicators, so that river discharge approaches the water demand threshold, thus creating a risk of water shortages,
especially for irrigation. Over the past decade, forest cover in the catchment area has decreased, which has led to increased surface runoff and reduced water infiltration. Based on these findings, climate change in land cover greatly affects surface flow conditions so that an integrated management strategy is needed, including watershed rehabilitation, development of water storage infrastructure, and increasing water use efficiency, is essential to ensure the long-term sustainability of water supply from the Moayat River.

Delays in project completion can lead to significant financial losses, reduced contractor performance, and decreased operational efficiency. This study analyzes the delay factors in the Proton Beam Building construction project at RSPAD Gatot Soebroto, identifying the primary causes and proposing targeted mitigation strategies. A mixed-method approach, combining qualitative interviews and quantitative surveys with key project stakeholders including planning consultants, construction management teams, contractors, and other involved parties is employed. The analysis utilizes the House of Risk (HOR) method to identify and prioritize delay agents and the House of Delay (HOD) method, supplemented by Forum Group Discussions for comprehensive insights. Key
research variables encompass human resources, materials, equipment, contract administration, project planning, field conditions, and stakeholder involvement. The study reveals that the primary causes of delays are inadequate planning, design changes, and a shortage of qualified human resources in construction management and planning consulting. The HOR methodology identifies the top three delay agents: Planning not in accordance with regulations (A8), Design changes (A6), and Lack of human resources (A4). To address these issues, the study proposes mitigation strategies, including the creation of a comprehensive checklist for regulatory compliance during planning, ensuring design alignment with applicable regulations, and developing contingency plans to address
potential human resource shortages. These strategies aim to reduce the most significant delay risks, improve project efficiency, and enhance overall project compliance.

This study aims to identify the impact of electronic word of mouth (e-WOM) on the purchase intention of Generation Z, considering e-WOM quantity, quality, and valence, as well as brand image and perceived quality as mediators. With the rapid rise of online platforms, e-WOM has become a key factor influencing consumer decision-making, particularly among digitally native groups like Generation Z. A total of 260 respondents, who met the inclusion criteria, were selected, with the study population consisting of Generation Z individuals resid-
ing in Bandung. The purposive sampling technique was applied to ensure that participants had relevant experience with e-WOM. Data were collected using a questionnaire distributed via Google Forms, employing a Likert scale to measure responses. The analysis was carried out using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method based on SmartPLS 4.0 as the testing tool, which allowed for the examination of both direct and indirect effects of e-WOM on purchase intention. The results of this study indicate that e-WOM quantity, quality, and valence have a positive and significant influence on purchase intention. These relationships were found to be both direct and indirect, highlighting the importance of e-WOM in shaping consumer behavior. A limitation of this study is that the sample only includes Generation Z in Bandung, which means the findings may not fully represent Generation Z in other regions or countries. Future research could expand the sample to improve generalizability and explore additional mediators in the e-WOM to purchase intention relationship
