  • Cognitive, Normative, and Hedonic Pathways to Deepfake Acceptance

    Open Access•Yi Yong Lee, Chin Lay Gan et al.•ARTICLE•SAGE Open•2026

    The rise of deepfake technology offers both opportunities and challenges across domains such as education and entertainment. Moving beyond detection-focused research, this study adopts a social science perspective by integrating the Knowledge–Attitude–Behavior model with Goal Framing Theory to examine Malaysian university students’ perceptions of deepfake. Using survey data from 235 students and structural equation modeling, results show that cog…

  • Supporting student-centred learning with mobile technology

    Open Access•Chin Lay Gan, Yok Han Bong et al.•ARTICLE•Culture and Education•2025•References: 9

    This research aims to study the pivotal factors that encourage higher education students to use mobile technology to promote student-centred learning. A mobile technology–enhanced student-centred learning (MTSCL) model was proposed by integrating the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model and Hofstede’s national cultural dimensions. This study recruited 153 Malaysian higher education students via purposive and snowballin…

  • Fishing for phishy messages

    Open Access•Chin Lay Gan, Yi Yong Lee et al.•ARTICLE•Humanities and Social Sciences…•2024

    Mobile phishing has emerged as one of the most severe cybercrime threats; thus, research must examine the factors affecting people’s likelihood of becoming instant messaging phishing targets. In this study, we draw on the cyber-routine activity theory (Cyber-RAT) and heuristic-systematic model (HSM) to predict Gen-Zers’ phishing susceptibility. Based on online survey data ( n = 361), the proposed research model was validated via structural equati…

  • Love is in the cloud

    Open Access•Tze Wei Liew, Su-Mae Tan et al.•ARTICLE•Cogent Social Sciences•2023

    Romance has never felt the same way since the inception of online dating. A match is made not in Heaven but in the Cloud. Swiping profiles could sweep someone’s feet off. This work aims to assess the factors predicting the continuous use intention of online dating applications among young Malaysians through the lens of the UTAUT2 model and privacy risk. The research model was analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling per …

  • Thwarting Instant Messaging Phishing Attacks

    Open Access•Yi Yong Lee, Chin Lay Gan et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2023

  • Colors and Learner’s Gender Evoke Different Emotional and Cognitive Effects in Multimedia Learning

    Open Access•Tze Wei Liew, Su-Mae Tan et al.•ARTICLE•Human Behavior and Emerging…•2022

    The emotional design principle avers that highly saturated warm colors in multimedia learning presentations can elevate affective-motivational, cognitive, and learning outcomes. While warm and achromatic grayscale color tones have been explored extensively, relatively less research examines the effects of cold colors in multimedia learning. This study explores how color tones (warm, cold, and achromatic grayscale) and learners’ gender influence p…

  • The Impacts of Mobile Wallet App Characteristics on Online Impulse Buying

    Open Access•Yi Yong Lee, Chin Lay Gan et al.•ARTICLE•Human Behavior and Emerging…•2022

    The adoption of cashless payment methods compels impulse buying. This research studies impulse purchase behavior by focusing on E-wallet app characteristics, a field where empirical research is still scarce. This paper is aimed at developing and testing a theoretical model to examine a moderated mediation model of mobile wallet app characteristics and impulse buying through perceived enjoyment moderated by mobile wallet user experience. An online…
