The factors that influence users' adoption of mobile payment are worth ex ploring. This study employs the Technology Ac ceptance Model (TAM) to examine determinant factors affecting consumers' acceptance intentions of mobile payment. We adopt Hofstede's cultural dimensions as moderators to extend the TAM model for exploring the impact of uncertainty a voidance on mobile payment acceptance.展开更多

A second phase of this program is currently being discussed. In this paper, contingent valuation is used to estimate the WTP (willingness to pay) for maintaining the program among the inhabitants in Heilongjiang Province in northern China. The results show that, even with fairly conservative assumptions, the aggregated WTP for maintaining the program for another five years is some 3.24 billion yuan per year. This can be compared with the current cost of the Program in the province, which is some 1.57 billion yuan per year.展开更多

Here, we estimate the economic value of the water resources of the upper reaches of the Xin’an River basin. Our purpose is to establish theoretical support for eco-compensation standardization and provide data for the protection of water resources and water price reform.展开更多
