As online shopping transactions become popular, it is increasingly important to understand the drivers that influence the consumers in availing such platforms. Furthermore, the differences between developed and developing economies are evident from socioeconomic, regulatory, and e-commerce disparities. Understanding such domain from a developing economies perspective is not well explored in the current literature. Thus, this study aims to identify the relationships among drivers of consumers in pursuing online shopping in a developing economy (i.e., the Philippines) using interpretative structural modeling. The study identified six drivers: \u201cconvenience\/ease of use,\u201d \u201ccompetitive price,\u201d \u201cproduct availability,\u201d \u201cvalue of time,\u201d \u201caccess to more information,\u201d and \u201cseveral payment options.\u201d Results show that all drivers, except for \u201ccompetitive price,\u201d are closely interlinked to each other, such that initiatives must be simultaneously developed to address these drivers under resource constraints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keywords<\/strong><br \/>Developing Country, Drivers, Interpretative Structuring Model, Online Shopping<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Link to the Article<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DOI: 10.4018\/IJSKD.2021040106<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Roy Jucip Taba\u00f1ag Basar III (University of the Philippines, Cebu, Philippines), Honey Rose Borden (University of the Philippines, Cebu, Philippines), Manuel Lorenzo Busano III (University of the Philippines, Cebu, Philippines), Xelani Kaye Gonzales (University of the Philippines, Cebu, Philippines), Vanessa Grace Guerrero (University of the Philippines, Cebu, Philippines), Tiffany Adelaine Tan (University of the Philippines, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-912","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-recent-publications"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cvsc.upcebu.edu.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/912","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cvsc.upcebu.edu.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cvsc.upcebu.edu.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cvsc.upcebu.edu.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cvsc.upcebu.edu.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=912"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cvsc.upcebu.edu.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/912\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2013,"href":"https:\/\/cvsc.upcebu.edu.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/912\/revisions\/2013"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cvsc.upcebu.edu.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=912"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cvsc.upcebu.edu.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=912"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cvsc.upcebu.edu.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=912"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
