The impact of the Internet on how and when individuals decide to adopt new products and services remains a critical yet under examined topic. This research examines the linkage between Internet use and the new product diffusion process through the examination of a very large, detailed, Internet usage dataset. Our 12-month longitudinal analysis of 34,731 customers' Internet related behaviours indicates that the introduction of Internet based services is positively correlated with expedited adoption behaviour. Customers that utilized a company's Internet related service innovations were over twice as likely to adopt the company's new product offering during the first year of introduction. We conclude by discussing the implications and need for additional research.

Teenage girls represent the most highly sought after market segment in the U.S. because of their keen interest in shopping and their significant spending power. Teenage girls spend more time than teenage boys in shopping environments and outspend boys in every category except videogames. So, teenage girls clearly love to shop--but do they perceive themselves as good shoppers or is this a group who feels out of control when it comes to spending wisely and making considered decisions regarding purchases? If they lack the expertise and self-control to perform shopping tasks successfully, then there are numerous financial and psychological implications, including accumulating debt and exhibiting compulsive shopping behaviors that continue into adulthood.
In order to examine teenage girls in...

Factors associated with adopting and resisting mobile banking technologies were investigated among university students in Taiwan. Adoption factors included the belief that mobile banking helps fulfill personal banking needs, provides location-free conveniences, and is cost effective. The primary factors associated with resistance included concerns over system configuration security and basic fees for mobile banking web connections. The theoretical and applied implications of these findings are discussed.

Substantial research on problem drinking has identified determinants ranging from the biological to the socioculturel. From a social learning theory perspective, drinking represents purposive behaviour (Jessor, 1987). Based on this framework, the psychosocial literature generally indicates two distinct motivational pathways. One of these paths is social, drinking to socialize or avoid social rejection (Celantino & McQueen, 1978; Cox & Klinger, 1988; Read, Wood, Kahler, Maddock, & Palfai, 2003; Smith, Abbey, & Scott, 1993). Although the notion of "social drinking" in common parlance suggests innocuous conviviality, the literature on problem drinking shows the powerful influence of the peer group on high-risk drinking (e.g., Andrews, Tildesley, Hops, & Li, 2002; Wood, ...
