its benefits brought to consumers and businesses, including lower transaction costs, greater convenience and the power of personalization Despite the wide adoption of this technology in some developed countries, many emerging markets are still in the initial stage of implementing the Internet for their commercial activities This research aims to investigate the consumer attitudes to E-commerce and its adoption in Vietnam In particular, thegioididong.com website will be studied to identify the extent of E-commerce usage and the factors that influence Finally, recommendations will be provided to address the problems Key words: e-commerce, consumer, attitude The model summary reports the strength of the relationship between the model and the dependent variable, overall product/service quality The value of 0.722 of adjusted R Square indicates that 72.2% variance of the independent variable can explained by the four mentioned factors The ANOVA table tests the acceptability of the model from a statistical perspective Base on the data in the ANOVA table, the significance value of the F statistic is less than 0.05, which means that this result have meaning in statistical aspect and this sample result can be representative for whole population Table 16: anova test ANOVAa Model Sum of Df Mean Squares Regression Residual Total F Sig Square 148.176 55.824 201 204.000 204 49.392 177.841

coefficients above, the Standardized Coefficients beta between Consumer attitude and Perceived benefit, perceived ease of use, perceived quality of service was positive and significant because the significance value of perceived benefit, perceived ease of use, perceived quality of service is lower than 0.5, it satisfies with the statistical standard This demonstrated that perceived benefit, perceived ease of use and perceived quality of service was related to consumer attitude or there was linear relationship between consumer attitude and perceived benefit, perceived ease of use and perceived quality of service In addition, for measuring how strongly of impact level between consumer attitude and perceived benefit, perceived ease of use and perceived quality of service, we continue with the standardized coefficient beta in the table above The largest value of standardized coefficient beta is 0.603, it means that perceived quality of service has the strongest impact to consumer attitude The smallest value of standardized coefficient beta is 0.257, it means that the perceived benefit value has the lowest impact to consumer attitude Therefore, Linear Regression equation is CA = 0.603PQ + 0.545PE + 0.257PB + 2.654E-017 35 Revision of hypotheses and research model Perceived Ease of use H2 H1 Consumer attitude to online transaction H3 Perceived quality of

RECOMMENDATIONS Conclusion Our research topic: “Consumer attitude towards the use of E-commerce in Ho Chi Minh city: a case study of thegioididong.com “ is conducted to find the factors that influence to consumer attitude towards the use of thegioididong.com website and the challenges to thegioididong.com development We focus on finding out how consumers evaluate the product/ service quality of thegioididong.com and measuring their attitude to improve the thegioididong.com case Take the advantage of Technology Acceptance Model was developed by Davis(1986), three dimensions including perceived benefit, perceived ease of use, perceived quality of service are used to get in-depth interview with respondents In order to answer the research objectives, the methodology was presented in chapter Researcher applied mixed method to collect data including qualitative and quantitative method In preliminary research, using qualitative method to collect data on individual’s personal history, expectation by provided structure interview with 10 consumers The main research is conducted by distributed questionnaire survey after piloting test completed This result processed by using SPSS 20.0 to test reliability and validity measurement scale of dependent variable and independent variables Cronbach’s Anpha, EFA( exploratory factor analysis) used for reliability test Test the validity, test model and test hypothesis based on linear regression technique as presented in chapter four The core objective of this study was established the effect of these independent variable: perceived benefit, perceived ease of use, perceived quality of service Based on data analysis, the key factor effect to consumer attitude is perceived quality of service But in the condition of Vietnam, many consumers have the same habit that they only search information about product or review rating before they buy cell phone and after they get enough data about the phone, they will go to an offline store to get the new That have many reasons, because when they intend to buy a phone online in e-commerce 37 website, in this case thegioididong.com, they feel dissatisfied with unclear policy, noncompetitive pricing, delivery, return policy, payment policy… so it make they decide to go to offline store to get clear about many things above Recommendations Base on the descriptive statistic, we recognized that perceived benefit and perceived ease of use have the average mean lower than 3.5 so we need to find some way to improve this value In perceived benefit value, we need to improve the value of “Save your time for choosing and purchasing phone products and services”, “Offer you with cheaper prices than you going to the retail stores”, “Send you personalized emails that make you think they really know you personally? i.e greeting your name, offering you with relevant products and services, promoting deals in your local areas”,” Put your mind at ease with a safe and convenient online experience”,” Always put your privacy and benefits their first priority”, all these value have mean lower than 3.5 In perceived ease of use, we need to improve the value of “Has logically structured design”, “Allows you to navigate easily without any confusion from page to page”, “Clearly state their policies every time before a purchase is made (terms and conditions of use, privacy policies, returns and warranty policies)”, “Has quick download speed (page loading time, applications download)”, all these value also have mean lower than 3.5 Despite thegioididong.com is one of the best e-commerce website in Vietnam, but when we compare with some famous other website such as amazon.com to get strength and weakness to develop market, we recognize that thegioidiong.com seem as only the first stage of e-commerce website So, we suggest some solution for thegioididong.com: o With phone product: we should show more item related to phone such as accessory ( case, screen protector), items viewed by others( similar phone, games) o Response to customer question regarding specific product is displayed o Polices about payment, delivery, transaction should be stated clearly 38 o More competitive pricing for buying online If the board of thegioididong.com can the above suggestion, we believe that they can get many benefits such as improve online presence ( more effective), improve customer attitude towards online transaction, cost saving for offline channel, increase revenue To get these benefits, we need to pay some cost but relatively low: development cost of customer tracking system, recommended system, product differentiation( such as download gps map when buying online), channel cooperation( sell online, handle return offline, repair cost), promotion with condition( payment with bank card), percent discount with condition… But in any problem, it still has positive and negative side The negative side of this is risk of online transaction can happen but if we have good enough information and knowledge about e-commerce, we think that we can control this Some risk we can face to improve online transaction: o Channel conflict ( cannibalization) : if we pay attention to develop online store, so the big systems of offline store can be closed o Privacy violation: this make consumer afraid when using ecommerce because they worry about losing personal information, credit card account, password, virus… In conclusion, e-commerce is a useful tool help business to improve competition, existing and development in the trend of globalization To take advantage of e-commerce, business needs to have knowledge basically about all factor effect to consumer attitude to purchasing online so that they can operate and the e-commerce system effectively Limitations Like all research, this research has several limitations to the interpretation of the result and other problem should be considered during study procedure Firstly, with limited time and cost, so in this research, we stop at evaluating the consumer attitude to online transaction in Ho Chi Minh city and Binh Duong So the first 39 suggestion is should have a general evaluation to all factor effect to Vietnamese consumer attitude Secondly, with this research, we only pay attention to consumer who has known thegioididong.com and particular in the case of phone in thegioididong.com e-commerce website So we can not mentioned all the factor motivate consumer learn and have transaction online The next suggestion is a research with all consumers for the moment ecommerce websites to generalize the situation in Vietnam 40 References A.Afuah, N.Bahram, the hypercube innovation, Res.Policy 24(1995) 51-76 E-commerce: A Brief Overview - Dr Gezgin by Ulas Basar Gezgin on May 16, 2008
