Profiling E-buyers in Saudi Arabia: Demographic, Experiential, and Attitudinal Factors
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The purpose of this research study is to develop profiles of adopters and non-adopters of internet shopping in Saudi Arabia based on their demographic variables and internet usage patrons and to investigate consumers’ attitude towards online shopping and perception and formation of attitude by using Fishbein and Ajzin (1980) Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA). A profile of internet shopping adopter and non-adapters was drawn. Among the investigated demographic variablesand internet usage patterns, only educational level and previous experience on online purchase were found to differ significantly among consumers. Therefore, demographic variables and internet usage patterns are of limited use to profile Saudi Arabian consumers in terms of attitude towards internet shopping. Key words : Profile; Internet Shopping; E-Commerce; Saudi Arabia; Consumer Behavior Resume: Le but de cette etude est d'elaborer des profils d'adoptants et de non-adoptants des achats sur Internet en Arabie Saoudite en fonction des variables demographiques et des modeles d'utilisation d'Internet et d'etudier l'attitude des consommateurs envers les achats en ligne, leur perception et la formation de l'attitude, en utilisant la Theorie de l'action raisonnee (TAR) de Fishbein et Ajzin (1980). Un profile des adoptants des achats sur Internet et des non-adoptants a ete tire.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
