This paper aims to determine the impact of working capital management policy and financial leverage on financial performance of Jordanian companies measured in terms of net income, return on equity (ROE) and return on asset (ROA). Pearson’s rank correlation test, ANOVA F- test, and multiple regression analysis were used on 45 companies included in the industrial sector in Jordan ranked in terms of gross revenues. Results of the study indicated that firm’s working capital management policy, financial leverage, and firm size have significant relation to net income. However working capital management policy has no significant impact on return on equity (ROE) and return on assets (ROA).

Technology gives consumer the power to investigate products to label them and criticize them in equal measure, and more. Therefore many companies today have pages on social networks to complement the information held about products, held by the feedback of consumers about products and tend to relate more to a company after reading various reviews. The paper is related to the impact of social media on consumer behavior, therefore it has been made a quantitative research. The sample counted 116 respondents and from the statistical perspective, the conclusions were established in terms of the univariate and bivariate analysis. Following the analysis of the research variables we can make a consumer profile that uses social networks. Likewise, after doing the complex statistical analysis using SPSS and the analysis offered by the online platform the host of questionnaire, it can be seen how much it is influenced and the real impact of social media reflected in the behavior changes.

The Internet and the e-commerce revolution have brought a paradigm shift in the way customers shop. Online shopping is a growing phenomenon worldwide and with increase in internet penetration and broadband India too is witnessing a surge in online shopping. Consumer buying behaviour is a widely researched area but online buying behaviour is still evolving. Marketers are trying to understand the online buying behaviour of Indian consumers so that they can look out for new ways of identifying distinct profitable customer segments and targeting them better. l though very few studies have currently been done on Indian consumer-buying behaviour, and especially on the role of gender, there are indicators that different findings from those from the West may evolve.This paper aims to identify the factors that affect the online buying behaviour of women particularly homemakers and do a comparative study between Delhi and Mumbai .Educated , urban homemakers form a significant prospect for traditional retailers. The question that arises is whether this segment is also buying online or has remained untapped by the e-retailers? Research has examined the role of different factors on individuals e-commerce adoption, such as geography and store accessibility, perceived risk and online shopping benefits, typology of online stores, enjoyment and trust in Web sites , gender differences in attitudes toward online shopping ,and impact of consumers socio-economic conditions (Sorce, Perotti, and Widrick 2005; Farag et) .Dennis, Morgan, Wright and Jayawardhena in the article, “The influences of social e-shopping in enhancing young women‟s online shopping behaviour”, in the Journal of Customer Behavior states that in the traditional world, women do most of the shopping but online, it is the reverse . Why should this be? Could it be that that online shopping (e-shopping) lacks the social experience of brick and mortar shopping. An empirical study through online survey was conducted on 50 homemakers in Mumbai and 50 in Delhi across the age group of 18-75 yrs. The quantitative research aimed to analyse the buying attitudes of homemakers, and other factors that effect their purchase decision online. It also attempts to explore the brick and mortar buying behaviour vs. online buying behaviour of the target audience. The study has its limitations as the sample size is too small to provide definitive information for marketing strategies to be developed, however it provides cues on which marketers can go into further depth to commission large scale research, given the opportunity that obviously exists.

"The adoption of online buying, as an alternative way of traditional buying, can result in either
continuance or discontinuance of such behavior. Consumers’  intention to continue buying online is
modeled according to ECM-IT framework, where behavioral intention is mainly determined by
consumers’ satisfaction and perceived usefulness of using the Internet for buying goods and services.
Satisfaction is a function of consumers’ confirmation of initial expectations. Developing ECM-IT
framework for the purpose of this study, consumers’ expectations confirmation and satisfaction are
decomposed according to the stages of online buying process: pre-purchase, purchase and post-purchase
stage. Thus, new measurements are adapted for the purpose of this study and their reliability and validity
are assessed within the paper. A PLS-based SEM analysis tests and validates the proposed relationships
between the model’s eight latent variables. Findings suggest that the main determinants of consumers’
intention to continue buying online are post-purchase stage satisfaction and consumers’ perceived
usefulness of online buying.  Satisfaction is measured as a transaction-specific satisfaction with the
delivery, returning policies and post-purchase customer relationships, and consumers’ perceived
usefulness of online buying.  "

The study aims to assess the attitude of urban youth toward online shopping. The study was conducted on the age bracket 18-35 who are generally the primary and secondary target market of the online shops. An organized and adaptive survey was conducted on 119 respondents using convenience sampling. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze data. The study reveals most of the respondets visit online sites a couple of times a week. Moreover, most of the respondents want to buy products up to BDT 4,000 but are willing to buy products up to BDT 5000 for branded products. So, there is a huge potential for branded products. There are more mobile banking users than bank cardholders. Therefore, mobile banking can add new doors for online shopping. Most popular online products are clothing, food & beverage, mobile accessories, electronic goods, and beauty products. The major distress appears to be that products delivered do not match the product shown in the online shop and product's quality. People would prefer to physically examine the products before buying them online. The study also reveals previous online buying experience and online reviews have a high influence on online buying behavior. The study supports that youth perceive online shopping is trustworthy. Though youth recognize that online shopping is convenient and think the price is cheaper but there is room for improvement.

Today e-commerce has become crucial element to transform some of the world countries into an information society. Business to consumer (B2C) in the developing countries is not yet a normalcy as compared to the developed countries. Consumer behaviour research has shown disappointing results regarding the overall use of the Web for online shopping, despite its considerable promise as a channel for
commerce. As the use of the Internet continues to grow in all aspects of daily life, there is an increasing need to better understand what trends of internet usage and to study the barriers and problem of ecommerce adoption. Hence, the purpose of this research is to define how far Technology Acceptance Model(TAM) contributed in e-commerce adoption. Data for this study was collected by the means of a survey conducted in Malaysia in 2010. A total of 611 questionnaire forms were delivered to respondents. The
location of respondents was within Penang state. By studying this sample, conclusions would be drawn to generalize the interests of the population.

The purpose of this review paper is to present the application of herding behavior in online buying. The simplest description of herding behavior is the imitation of others in making decisions. Online buying platforms have facilitated observing others' buying behavior, thereby increasing possibilities of social influence on our information search, evaluation, and buying. The concept of herding is multi-disciplinary; however, the literature review on herding behavior is mainly grounded in economics and finance. There is little understanding of herding behavior in marketing literature. Therefore, this study covers herding behavior literature through high-quality research papers published from 2000 to 2020 in journals indexed in the social science citation index, science citation index expanded, and emerging source citation index. This paper discusses the conceptualization of herding in online buying, herding situations, information-processing view of herding, measuring herding eff...

Previous researchers that have employed Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) in modeling online buying behavior, validated that consumers' attitude towards online buying is mainly determined by two salient beliefs: perceived usefulness of online buying and perceived ease of buying online. This paper takes a different approach from previous studies and postulates that the relationship between ease of buying online and attitude will be moderated by consumers' perceived self-efficacy. The results of a PLS-based structural equation modeling analysis validate this assumption, indicating a negative path coefficient for the moderating effect. This means that the direct effect of perceived ease of buying online on attitude will decrease as consumers gain more skills and knowledge about online buying and thus, they perceive an increased self-efficacy. The results of this study implies that consumers' salient beliefs of online buying must be rethought since perceived ease of buying is losing its importance in determining consumers' attitude for those highly experienced online buyers.
