Abstract:
Increasing the supply of entrepreneurs reduces unemployment and accelerates economic growth (Acs, 2006; Audretsch, 2007; Santarelli et el. 2009; Campbell, 1996; Carree & Thurik, 1996). The supply of entrepreneurs depends on the entrepreneurial intention and activity of the people (Kruger & Brazeal, 1994). Existing behavioural theories explain that entrepreneurial activity is an attitude driven process which is mediated by intention and regulated by behavioural control. These theories are: Theory of Planned Behaviour (Ajzen, 1991; 2002, 2012); Entrepreneurial Event Model (Shapiro & Shokol, 1982

Despite this, the Business-to- Consumer sector has shown slow expansion and limited growth, with the majority of consumers slow to adopt the Internet as a medium for purchase.

This study examines and compares farmers' succession plans and actual succession behaviour and finds that the farm operator's age and regional variables influence both. We also find a discrepancy between intention and actual behaviour which is significantly related to the farm operator's age.

Therefore, stated plans have only a negligible value in predicting the observed behaviour and farm operator's statements on the ti

Abstract:
This study proposes a model of e-shopping continuance intentions that incorporate the revised technology acceptance model and expectation confirmation theory to measure continuance online shopping intentions within Saudi Arabia. Using structural equation modelling to confirm the model fit, and a 463-person sample, the author finds that perceived usefulness, enjoyment, and subjective norms determine online shopping continuance intentions, across male (30% of the sample) and female (70%) respondents. The structural weights are largely equivalent, yet the regression paths from site quality to per

Abstract:
Problematization: Tourism has a major impact on the environment. However, there is a conflict of interest making it difficult for the hotel business to decrease this impact. On the one hand, there is a pressure for environmentally friendly behaviour from society. On the other hand, the customers want to be pampered during their hotel stay. This makes it necessary to further investigate what influences customers’ intention to select a green hotel. Therefore this thesis examines students’ intention to select a green hotel. Since, it might make it easier for hotels to design and implement strateg

Abstract:
Organisations are constantly undergoing major changes. These changes can have negative consequences on organisational functioning and employee well-being. It is therefore vital for organisations to focus on the elements of a healthy organisation so that a positive organisation can be built and the negative consequences avoided. A healthy organisation pays attention to six intenelated dimensions namely; organisational attributes, organizational climate, job design, job future, psychological work adjustment and negative outcomes (like that of turnover, absenteeism, alcohol and substance abuse,

Globalisation radically changed the way in which talent is sourced, organised and managed. The chemical industry as competitor in the global landscape is increasingly faced with challenges to attract and retain talent. The success and global competitiveness of the chemical industry largely depends on its employees, their ideas and intellectual resources. Highly talented employees are targeted by competitor companies and head hunters with substantial financial incentives and benefits.

Abstract:
This research explores and examines the factors that influence customers’ attitude and intention towards switching in the energy (gas and electricity) markets in Western Australia (WA). It integrates push–pull theory (PPT) and the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) to understand what influences potential customers’ intention to switch electricity suppliers if the WA market were to be deregulated. A two-phase, mixed methods, sequential exploratory approach was adopted. In the first phase, a qualitative study was conducted through focus group sessions using semi-structured interview questions.

Thesis (PhD (Industrial Psychology))--University of Stellenbosch, 2005<br>South African organisations have to survive in an increasingly competitive and globalised environment. Many believe that South African organisations are ill prepared for these challenges, based on the fact that many organisations are plagued by low productivity, low levels of trust between employees and employers, as well as low levels of organisational commitment, effectiveness and efficiency. Solutions must be found for these problems and the present study offers one such solution. Organisational citizenship beha

Cette thèse a pour objet d’étude la prédiction de l’utilisation d’une technologie encore inconnue des utilisateurs ; c’est-à-dire une technologie que ces derniers n’ont pas encore eu l’occasion de mettre en pratique et de facto pour laquelle ils n’ont pas de représentation. Trois objectifs sont poursuivis dans ce travail. Le premier est la construction d’un modèle prédictif de l’intention comportementale d’utiliser les systèmes de transports intelligents coopératifs inconnus en convoquant les deux cadres théoriques que sont l’acceptabilité des technologies (e.g., Venkatesh et Bala, 2008) et la
