Purpose: In this research, the authors aim to investigate the impact of product display quantity on consumers' online purchase intention through the diminished pain of payment, in light of signaling theory and mental accounting theory. Additionally, the authors test the role of price in this...

The traditional cellular automaton (CA) model assumes that drivers only receive information from the preceding vehicles, e.g. the brake light information. However, in reality, drivers not only perceive information from downstream but can also get upstream information, e.g. the honk stimulation....

The paper mainly studies the following vehicle’s honk effect on the driver of its predecessors in the single-lane cellular automaton model (CA model); besides, the determined condition of honk’s state is investigated in detail, which has seldom been studied before. Then, the influence of...

The iterated spatial game among the mobile population is an interesting problem in the fields of biological, social and economic sciences. Inspired by some recent works, this paper concentrates on the iterated snowdrift game among movable and myopic agents. Two different decision-making schemes,...

Due to the poor road markings and irregular driving behaviors, not every vehicle is positioned in the center of the lane. The deviation from the center can cause discomfort to drivers in the neighboring lane, which is referred to as lateral discomfort (or lateral friction). Such lateral...

It is generally accepted that compliance behavior is affected by many factors. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of diverse factors on drivers’ guidance compliance behaviors under road condition information shown on graphic variable message sign (VMS), and based on this...

Purpose: Based on the literature on information security (InfoSec) education and uses and gratifications theory, the purpose of this paper is to propose and test a research model to examine the impact of InfoSec education on social media usage. Design/methodology/approach: The authors employed...

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the factors and mechanism which influence the doctor’s social and economic benefits from the perspective of social capital. Design/methodology/approach: This paper mainly investigates the factors and mechanism influencing the doctor's social and...
