The effect of teaching methods on university students’ intention to use online learning: Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) validation and testing

Abstract

Web 2.0 has changed the way consumers access information. This study aims to investigate the relationship between social media (Watsons’ Facebook page) content and consumers repurchase intention. In addition, it determined whether E-WOM and interactivity can act as the mediating variables between the social media content and repurchase decision. The data were collected through online and offline questionnaires. A total of 146 valid questionnaires were obtained and analyzed using Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) through the SMART-PLS 3.3.9 software. The findings support the direct effect of social media content on E-WOM, interactivity, and repurchase intention. Moreover, the results confirmed the mediating role of interactivity between social media content and repurchase intention, however, E-WOM does not mediate between social media content and repurchase intention. The present study suggests some managerial implications for beauty brand retailers and provides fundamental strategies related to their social media.
