I'm glad to announce that I will be organizing a workshop at this year's International Conference on Persuasive Technology holding in Cyprus. The workshop is titled "Persive Technology in Online Collaborative Systems" and the link to the website can be found here
I get asked a lot what tools I use for data analysis. I expriment a lot with tools, that's of course apart from R and Python that I always use. What I'm trying to achieve determines what tool I use. I like SmartPLS. I've used it over the years for PLS-SEM (Partial Least Squares - Structural Equation Modelling). It is easy to use and there are lloads of resources out there. It is not free, however there is a 30 day free trial period. They also offer a student discount. I think it's a great tool to have for PLS-SEM. I also like SPSS.
New week, new beginnings. Truth be told, you don't have to wait for a new day, week, month or year to start something new. Is it a healthy life style, learning a new language, working on that project or preparing for that exam; you can start right now! As we start this new week, I pray we all achieve our dreams and start that project we have been putting off. Later today, I will highlight what I hope to achieve today. I believe making it public will make me accountable.
I'm excited that my paper titled "Consumers' Need for Uniqueness and The Influence of Persuasive Strategies in E- commerce" was accepted at this year's PT conference. In this paper, we explore the use of persuasion and need for uniqueness in the continuance intention of e-commerce shoppers. In particular, we examine if Cialdini's six influence strategies have an effect on the three dimensions of need for uniqueness and if need for uniqueness further influences continuance intention of e-commerce shoppers.
