    Algorithmic Dependency and Merchant Vulnerability in Social Commerce Ecosystems: Evidence from TikTok Shop Seller Reviews

    by Henry Pandia, Shih-Wen Wang, Wei-Hung Chen

    Social commerce platforms increasingly serve as ecosystem orchestrators, coordinating technological infrastructures, financial systems, governance mechanisms, and algorithmic resource allocation. While prior research has predominantly focused on consumer behavior, limited attention has been given to merchant vulnerabilities arising from platform dependency. This study investigates operational vulnerabilities within the TikTok Shop ecosystem using 8993 negative merchant reviews collected from the Google Play Store. BERTopic, a transformer-based contextual topic modeling approach, was employed to identify latent vulnerability themes embedded in merchant complaint narratives. The results revealed 28 interpretable topics, which were aggregated into six higher-order vulnerability dimensions: Infrastructural Instability, Ecosystem Integration Vulnerability, Financial Vulnerability, Algorithmic Dependency, Coordination Breakdown, and Governance Asymmetry. Among these dimensions, Infrastructural Instability (13.59%) and Ecosystem Integration Vulnerability (13.44%) emerged as the most prominent sources of merchant dissatisfaction. The findings indicate that merchant vulnerability extends beyond isolated operational issues and is embedded within interconnected technological, financial, governance, algorithmic, and coordination structures. This study contributes to platform ecosystem research by providing empirical evidence and a structured interpretation of how platform-controlled resource orchestration may be associated with merchant vulnerability alongside value creation, while highlighting ecosystem integration as a significant source of risk during platform transformation.

    Rethinking ICT Integration in Indonesian Schools: The Role of Digital Self-Learning Beyond Institutional Support

    by Henry Pandia, Sintaria Sembiring

    Purpose of the Study: This study examines the relationships among Digital Self-Learning (DSL), Institutional Support (IS), Professional Development (PD), and Technology Integration (TI) among Indonesian teachers. Specifically, the study investigates how teachers' autonomous digital learning behavior contributes to classroom-level ICT integration beyond formal institutional and training mechanisms.Methodology: A quantitative cross-sectional survey was conducted involving 221 Indonesian in-service teachers. The study applied Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to analyze the data, examine relations among the proposed constructs, and explore the mechanisms underlying technology integration.Main Findings: Digital Self-Learning is the strongest predictor of both Professional Development and Technology Integration. Institutional Support significantly influences Digital Self-Learning but does not directly affect Technology Integration, suggesting that institutional conditions primarily contribute through enabling teachers' self-directed learning behavior. Professional Development further strengthens Technology Integration, whereas demographic variables such as age, gender, and educational level exert little influence. Although the proposed model confirmed substantial explanatory power, its out-of-sample projecting performance was limited. Therefore, the findings should be interpreted primarily from an explanatory rather than a predictive perspective.Novelty/Originality of this Study: The novelty of this study lies in its reconceptualization of ICT integration as a behaviorally driven process in which Digital Self-Learning functions as the central mechanism linking institutional conditions, professional growth, and classroom technology integration. The findings contribute to the growing discourse on teacher digital capability and offer practical insights for developing more adaptive and sustainable ICT integration strategies in educational settings.

    Role of Knowledge and Attitudes in Shaping Incident Reporting Behaviors in Mobile Banking

    by Henry Pandia

    The growing reliance on mobile banking has brought convenience to users but also heightened security risks, making the analysis of users' knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors toward information security incident reporting critical. This study investigates these dimensions within the context of mobile banking in Indonesia, aiming to bridge gaps between awareness and action. A survey involving 430 respondents was conducted, utilizing an instrument adapted from the Human Aspect of Information Security Questionnaire (HAIS-Q). Statistical analyses, including Cronbach's alpha, composite reliability, and Average Variance Extracted (AVE), were employed to validate the constructs. The results reveal that while respondents exhibit high levels of knowledge (mean = 4.21) and positive attitudes (mean = 4.20), their proactive reporting behaviors are relatively low (mean = 3.26). Path coefficient analysis indicates that knowledge strongly influences attitudes (0.722) but has a weaker direct impact on behaviors (0.162). Gender differences also play a significant role, affecting knowledge and behavior. These findings underscore the need for targeted interventions, including enhanced training, supportive reporting cultures, and robust monitoring mechanisms, to mitigate risks and improve incident reporting practices. Future research should explore psychological and technological factors to further enhance mobile banking security.

    by Chun-Liang Chen, Yao-Chin Lin, Wei-Hung Chen, Cheng-Fu Chao, Henry Pandia

    In the digital economy era, small service business struggle to compete in a rapidly changing and dynamic market. Therefore, through digital transformation (DT), small service business seek to increase their competitive advantage, improve business performance, and achieve business growth. Having limited resources and capabilities, small service business must deal with several barriers and challenges. This study aims to discover the barriers, and the roles of government, for digital transformation in small service business. This study applied a qualitative approach involving semi-structured in-depth interviews with top management of small service business. Then, we employed the content analysis method to examine interview data and construct a model. This research reveals four main barriers to digital transformation in small service business: lack of funding, lack of digital capability, lack of human resources, and technical barriers. We found there are four government roles for supporting digital transformation in small service business: build a digital platform for small service business, promote mobile/digital payment, provide digital training, and build a digital collaboration ecosystem. Additionally, based on this study’s findings, a model for barriers and government support of digital transformation in small service business is presented. This study contributes to the conceptual framework and management implications in the digital transformation field. The study’s findings provide insights to practitioners and suggest that the government could alter the current policies and programs to support digital transformation in small service business.

    by Roland H. Pakpahan, Henry Pandia

    Pada saat ini ojek merupakan salah satu transportasi alternatif yang banyak dipilih oleh kalangan masyarakat, hal ini dikarenakan ojek dapat menjadi solusi transportasi untuk menghindari kemacetan yang ada di tengah kota. Dalam perkembangan teknologi munculnya layanan baru berupa ojek online yang memberikan kemudahan kepada masyarakat dengan menggunakan aplikasi yang terintegrasi dengan perusahan, sehingga kemudahan yang ditawarkan oleh ojek online terkesan menenggelamkan keberadaaan ojek konvensional yang menimbulkan kerugian terhadap pendapatan mereka. Penelitian ini mencari hambatan yang di alami ojek konvensional untuk bergabung dengan ojek online. Tujuan dalam penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui apa saja barrier to adoption teknologi ojek online dikalangan para pengemudi ojek konvensional, dan mencari solusi mengurangi barrier to adoption teknologi ojek online dikalangan ojek konvensional. Adapun hambatan yang ditemukan dari 6 komponen yaitu, perilaku dan perilaku kepada penumpang, teknologi, finansial, kelengkapan berkendara, informasi dan paguyuban. Keenam komponen tersebut diukur terhadap 36 responden di wilayah Bandung dan sekitarnya, dimana responden adalah pengemudi ojek konvensional. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara dan penyebaran kuesioner, untuk data yang diolah. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian deskriptif yang menggambarkan objek atau peristiwa yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui keadaan yang terjadi pada saat sekarang untuk memperoleh gambaran serta solusi untuk barrier business yang terjadi pada ojek konvensional. Penulis mengambil kesimpulan bahwa dari semua komponen kuesioner, payuguban adalah hambatan yang paling besar untuk pengemudi ojek konvensional untuk mengadopsi teknologi ojek online, dimana mereka masih nyaman menunggu penumpang di pangkalan karena kebersamaan terhadap sesama pengemudi dianggap memperkecil persaingan dalam mencari penumpang, berdasarkan kesimpulan yang diperoleh dari hasil data, maka penulis memberi saran untuk mengurangi hambatan mengadopsi aplikasi online bahwa pendidikan adalah faktor yang cukup penting untuk meningkatkan kemajuan berfikir dari masyarakat dan salah satu modal untuk mempunyai suatu pekerjaan yang produktif dan efisien.
