Factors Affecting Purchase Intention Towards Shariah Compliant Hotels

• Wan Nur Farahiyah Wan Mohd Tarmizi
• Suhaila Sedek
• Razlan Adli Zain
• Azahar Adzmy
• Zatul Iffah Mohd Fuza
• Mohammad Hafizi Md Rus

Malaysia has been successful in its efforts to entice Muslim tourists worldwide to visit the country and get something unique from their experience. Therefore, the possibility has arisen for local hotels to offer a selection of amenities and activities that are in accordance with the values represented by Islam. As the population of Muslim travellers has increased dramatically, Shariah-compliant hotels have become a pressing issue. Shariah compliance is a crucial factor that influences Muslim travelers' hotel selection during their travels. This study aims to discuss the main factors influencing purchase intentions towards Shariah-compliant hotels. The study reviewed halal awareness, service quality, and religiosity. A conceptual framework is being constructed based on past literature that illustrates the effect of the purchase intention on shariah-compliant hotels. Data is collected by reviewing several previous journals, articles, and research studies through argumentative methods. The findings indicate that two variables, halal awareness and religiosity, significantly influence the purchase intention towards shariah-compliant hotels. This study's significance is to address the stated variables that could potentially impact hotel owners. Additionally, this study is also in line with the current tourism plan of Malaysia, which emphasises shariah compliance as one of the techniques to entice travellers from Muslim nations to visit Malaysia.

• Respond swiftly to any queries during the publication process.
• Be accountable for all aspects of your work. This includes investigating and resolving any questions about accuracy or  research integrity
• Treat communications between you and the journal editor as confidential until an editorial decision has been made.
• Include  anyone who has made a substantial and meaningful contribution to the submission (anyone else involved in the paper should be listed in the acknowledgements).
• Exclude  anyone who hasn’t contributed to the paper, or who has chosen not to be associated with the research.
• In accordance with COPE’s position statement on AI tools , Large Language Models cannot be credited with authorship as they are incapable of conceptualising a research design without human direction and cannot be accountable for the integrity, originality, and validity of the published work.
• If your article involves human participants, you must ensure you have considered whether or not you require ethical approval for your research, and include this information as part of your submission. Find out more about  informed consent .

Research and publishing ethics

Our editors and employees work hard to ensure the content we publish is ethically sound. To help us achieve that goal, we closely follow the advice laid out in the guidelines and flowcharts on the  COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) website .

We have also developed our  research and publishing ethics guidelines . If you haven’t already read these, we urge you to do so – they will help you avoid the most common publishing ethics issues.

A few key points:

• Any manuscript you submit to this journal should be original. That means it should not have been published before in its current, or similar, form. Exceptions to this rule are outlined in our  pre-print and conference paper policies .  If any substantial element of your paper has been previously published, you need to declare this to the journal editor upon submission. Please note, the journal editor may use  Crossref Similarity Check  to check on the originality of submissions received. This service compares submissions against a database of 49 million works from 800 scholarly publishers.
• Your work should not have been submitted elsewhere and should not be under consideration by any other publication.
• If you have a conflict of interest, you must declare it upon submission; this allows the editor to decide how they would like to proceed. Read about conflict of interest in our  research and publishing ethics guidelines .
• By submitting your work to Emerald, you are guaranteeing that the work is not in infringement of any existing copyright.

Third party copyright permissions

Prior to article submission,  you need to ensure you’ve applied for, and received,   written permission to use any material in your manuscript that has been created by a third party. Please note, we are unable to publish any article that still has permissions pending. The rights we require are:

• Non-exclusive rights to reproduce the material in the article or book chapter.
• Print and electronic rights.
• Worldwide English-language rights.
• To use the material for the life of the work. That means there should be no time restrictions on its re-use e.g. a one-year licence.

We are a member of the International Association of Scientific, Technical, and Medical Publishers (STM) and participate in the  STM permissions guidelines , a reciprocal free exchange of material with other STM publishers.  In some cases, this may mean that you don’t need permission to re-use content. If so, please highlight this at the submission stage.

Please take a few moments to read our  guide to publishing permissions  to ensure you have met all the requirements, so that we can process your submission without delay.

Manuscript requirements

Before you submit your manuscript, it’s important you read and follow the guidelines below. You will also find some useful tips in our  structure your journal submission  how-to guide.

Submit your manuscript

There are a number of key steps you should follow to ensure a smooth and trouble-free submission.

Double check your manuscript

Before submitting your work, it is your responsibility to check that the manuscript is complete, grammatically correct, and without spelling or typographical errors. A few other important points:

• Give the journal aims and scope a final read. Is your manuscript definitely a good fit? If it isn’t, the editor may decline it without peer review.
• Does your manuscript comply with our  research and publishing ethics guidelines ?
• Have you cleared any necessary  publishing permissions ?
• Have you followed all the formatting requirements laid out in these author guidelines?
• If you need to refer to your own work, use wording such as ‘previous research has demonstrated’ not ‘our previous research has demonstrated’.
• If you need to refer to your own, currently unpublished work, don’t include this work in the reference list.
• Any acknowledgments or author biographies should be uploaded as separate files.
• Carry out a final check to ensure that no author names appear anywhere in the manuscript. This includes in figures or captions.

You will find a helpful submission checklist on the website  Think.Check.Submit .

The submission process

All manuscripts should be submitted through our editorial system by the corresponding author.

A separate author account is required for each journal you submit to. If this is your first time submitting to this journal, please choose the  Create an account  or  Register now  option in the editorial system. If you already have an Emerald login, you are welcome to reuse the existing username and password here.

Please note, the next time you log into the system, you will be asked for your username. This will be the email address you entered when you set up your account.

Don't forget to add your ORCiD ID during the submission process. It will be embedded in your published article, along with a link to the ORCiD registry allowing others to easily match you with your work.

Don’t have one yet? It only takes a few moments to  register for a free ORCiD identifier .

Visit the  ScholarOne support centre  for further help and guidance.

What you can expect next

You will receive an automated email from the journal editor, confirming your successful submission. It will provide you with a manuscript number, which will be used in all future correspondence about your submission. If you have any reason to suspect the confirmation email you receive might be fraudulent, please  contact our Rights team .

Post submission

Review and decision process.

Each submission is checked by the editor. At this stage, they may choose to decline or unsubmit your manuscript if it doesn’t fit the journal aims and scope, or they feel the language/manuscript quality is too low.

If they think it might be suitable for the publication, they will send it to at least two independent referees for double-anonymous peer review.  Once these reviewers have provided their feedback, the editor may decide to accept your manuscript, request minor or major revisions, or decline your work.

While all journals work to different timescales, the goal is that the editor will inform you of their first decision within 60 days.

During this period, we will send you automated updates on the progress of your manuscript via our submission system, or you can log in to check on the current status of your paper.  Each time we contact you, we will quote the manuscript number you were given at the point of submission. If you receive an email that does not match these criteria, it could be fraudulent and we recommend you email  [email protected] .

If your submission is accepted

All accepted authors are sent an email with a link to a licence form.  This should be checked for accuracy, for example whether contact and affiliation details are up to date and your name is spelled correctly, and then returned to us electronically. If there is a reason why you can’t assign copyright to us, you should discuss this with your journal content editor. You will find their contact details on the editorial team section above.

Proofing and typesetting

Once we have received your completed licence form, the article will pass directly into the production process. We will carry out editorial checks, copyediting, and typesetting and then return proofs to you (if you are the corresponding author) for your review. This is your opportunity to correct any typographical errors, grammatical errors or incorrect author details. We can’t accept requests to rewrite texts at this stage.

When the page proofs are finalised, the fully typeset and proofed version of record is published online. This is referred to as the  EarlyCite  version. While an EarlyCite article has yet to be assigned to a volume or issue, it does have a digital object identifier (DOI) and is fully citable. It will be compiled into an issue according to the journal’s issue schedule, with papers being added by chronological date of publication.

How to share your paper

Visit our author rights page  to find out how you can reuse and share your work.

Correcting inaccuracies in your published paper

Sometimes errors are made during the research, writing and publishing processes. When these issues arise, we have the option of withdrawing the paper or introducing a correction notice. Find out more about our  article withdrawal and correction policies .

The set of journals have been ranked according to their SJR and divided into four equal groups, four quartiles. Q1 (green) comprises the quarter of the journals with the highest values, Q2 (yellow) the second highest values, Q3 (orange) the third highest values and Q4 (red) the lowest values.

The SJR is a size-independent prestige indicator that ranks journals by their 'average prestige per article'. It is based on the idea that 'all citations are not created equal'. SJR is a measure of scientific influence of journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from It measures the scientific influence of the average article in a journal, it expresses how central to the global scientific discussion an average article of the journal is.

Evolution of the number of published documents. All types of documents are considered, including citable and non citable documents.

This indicator counts the number of citations received by documents from a journal and divides them by the total number of documents published in that journal. The chart shows the evolution of the average number of times documents published in a journal in the past two, three and four years have been cited in the current year. The two years line is equivalent to journal impact factor ™ (Thomson Reuters) metric.

Evolution of the total number of citations and journal's self-citations received by a journal's published documents during the three previous years. Journal Self-citation is defined as the number of citation from a journal citing article to articles published by the same journal.

Evolution of the number of total citation per document and external citation per document (i.e. journal self-citations removed) received by a journal's published documents during the three previous years. External citations are calculated by subtracting the number of self-citations from the total number of citations received by the journal’s documents.

International Collaboration accounts for the articles that have been produced by researchers from several countries. The chart shows the ratio of a journal's documents signed by researchers from more than one country; that is including more than one country address.

Not every article in a journal is considered primary research and therefore "citable", this chart shows the ratio of a journal's articles including substantial research (research articles, conference papers and reviews) in three year windows vs. those documents other than research articles, reviews and conference papers.

Ratio of a journal's items, grouped in three years windows, that have been cited at least once vs. those not cited during the following year.

Journal scope statement

The Asian American Journal of Psychology is the official publication of the Asian American Psychological Association and is dedicated to research, practice, advocacy, education, and policy within Asian American psychology. The Journal publishes empirical, theoretical, methodological, and practice oriented articles and book reviews covering topics relevant to Asian American individuals and communities, including prevention, intervention, training, and social justice. Particular consideration is given to empirical articles using quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methodology.

Journal mission statement

The purpose of the Mission Statement is to clarify mission and objectives for the Journal (AAJP) as defined by the Association (AAPA). The AAJP's Mission Statement reflects the mission of the Association, which is to advance the psychological well-being of Asian American communities through affecting professional practice, research, and teaching. Thus, the Journal aims to promote a better understanding of Asian American individuals and communities through research, practice, advocacy, education, and policy pertinent to all areas of psychology and related disciplines. For the journal, Asian Americans are broadly defined as Americans of Asian and Pacific Islander ancestry in the United States and Canada.

Publication guidelines

We encourage articles that:

• Contribute towards knowledge of Asian American psychology through research and examination of methodology.
• Develop and advance theories pertinent to Asian Americans.
• Promote the education and training of psychologists to work with Asian Americans, including the special issues relevant to the delivery of services to minority populations.
• Attend to issues of social justice and policy issues related to Asian American individuals and communities.
• Include attention to diverse communities within the broadest meaning of what it means to be Asian American.
• Utilize qualitative and mixed method approaches.

Contributors

The Association seeks interdisciplinary work from scholars with expertise in Asian American issues and mental health practitioners from different fields. In that vein, the Journal is interested in content that reflects collaboration between research and practice. The Association also values student development and encourages students to submit publication of their research and scholarship to the Journal.

Empirical works and methodology

The Association would like the Journal to be methodologically inclusive, valuing the respective strengths of quantitative, qualitative, and mixed method approaches. Despite the fact that the field of psychology has historically favored quantitative methods, the journal recognizes the in-depth and theory-building contributions of qualitative methods. The Journal, therefore, aims to include articles utilizing traditionally underrepresented qualitative and mixed methodologies. The Journal will take into consideration that qualitative research manuscripts take more space than quantitative and will therefore have a larger page allowance for a qualitative manuscript than for a quantitative manuscript.

Addressing practice-related issues

In addition to publishing empirical research, AAJP will address clinical practice, advocacy, education, and policy. In particular, the Association has recognized that the Journal needs to attend to ongoing discussion on practice. Published articles on Asian American psychology may address practice in one of three ways:

• Focusing primarily on practice,
• Empirical articles including "implications for practice," or
• Empirical articles that include separate practice-orientated reflections, with independent practitioners responding to the findings of the research and its relevance to practice.

The editorial board will actively solicit article submissions from various content areas (e.g., practice-oriented), disciplines (e.g., Asian American studies), and methodology (e.g., qualitative).

Special issues

The editorial board will reserve special issues (once per year) that are thematic and relate to topics that are underrepresented in the journal, of interest to the membership, and relevant to current trends in Asian American psychology. Special issue topics can be proposed by the publications committee in conjunction with the EC, the editorial board, and the membership at large.

Equity, diversity, and inclusion

Asian American Journal of Psychology supports equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) in its practices. More information on these initiatives is available under EDI Efforts .

Editor’s Choice

One article from each issue of Asian American Journal of Psychology will be highlighted as an “ Editor’s Choice ” article. Selection is based on the recommendations of the associate editors, the paper’s potential impact to the field, the distinction of expanding the contributors to, or the focus of, the science, or its discussion of an important future direction for science. Editor’s Choice articles are featured alongside articles from other APA published journals in a bi-weekly newsletter and are temporarily made freely available to newsletter subscribers.

Submit Manuscript

June Kim, PhD, editor The College of New Jersey Ewing, NJ

General correspondence may be directed to the editor's office .

In addition to addresses and phone numbers, please supply electronic mail addresses and fax numbers, if available, for potential use by the editorial office and later by the production office.

Asian American Journal of Psychology is now using a software system to screen submitted content for similarity with other published content. The system compares the initial version of each submitted manuscript against a database of 40+ million scholarly documents, as well as content appearing on the open web. This allows APA to check submissions for potential overlap with material previously published in scholarly journals (e.g., lifted or republished material).

Manuscripts for the Asian American Journal of Psychology can vary in length. Typical manuscripts will range from 10–35 pages with a maximum of 30 pages. Comprehensive review articles may be on the high end. Manuscripts using qualitative methodology or with multiple studies may be up to 40 pages in length, with prior permission of the Editor.

Authors should contact the editor first for permission if they intend to submit a manuscript longer than 30 pages, with a rationale for the extra length.

The journal publishes empirical, theoretical, methodological, and practice-oriented articles covering topics relevant to Asian American individuals and communities, including prevention, intervention, training, and social justice.

Whereas particular consideration is given to empirical articles using quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methodology, the journal will publish the full range of articles including but not limited to empirical studies, book reviews, methodological reviews, and critical reviews.

The journal will also consider proposals for special issues that address specific themes within the field of Asian American psychology. Individuals interested in proposing a special issue of the journal should also contact the editor to check about its acceptability and feasibility before submitting a full proposal.

For the journal, Asian Americans are broadly defined as Americans of Asian and Pacific Islander ancestry in the United States and Canada.

Manuscript preparation

Review APA's Journal Manuscript Preparation Guidelines before submitting your article.

Double-space all copy. Other formatting instructions, as well as instructions on preparing tables, figures, references, metrics, and abstracts, appear in the Manual . Additional guidance on APA Style is available on the APA Style website .

If your manuscript was mask reviewed, please ensure that the final version for production includes a byline and full author note for typesetting.

Below are additional instructions regarding the preparation of display equations, computer code, and tables.

Display equations

We strongly encourage you to use MathType (third-party software) or Equation Editor 3.0 (built into pre-2007 versions of Word) to construct your equations, rather than the equation support that is built into Word 2007 and Word 2010. Equations composed with the built-in Word 2007/Word 2010 equation support are converted to low-resolution graphics when they enter the production process and must be rekeyed by the typesetter, which may introduce errors.

To construct your equations with MathType or Equation Editor 3.0:

• Go to the Text section of the Insert tab and select Object.
• Select MathType or Equation Editor 3.0 in the drop-down menu.

If you have an equation that has already been produced using Microsoft Word 2007 or 2010 and you have access to the full version of MathType 6.5 or later, you can convert this equation to MathType by clicking on MathType Insert Equation. Copy the equation from Microsoft Word and paste it into the MathType box. Verify that your equation is correct, click File, and then click Update. Your equation has now been inserted into your Word file as a MathType Equation.

Use Equation Editor 3.0 or MathType only for equations or for formulas that cannot be produced as Word text using the Times or Symbol font.

Computer code

Because altering computer code in any way (e.g., indents, line spacing, line breaks, page breaks) during the typesetting process could alter its meaning, we treat computer code differently from the rest of your article in our production process. To that end, we request separate files for computer code.

In online supplemental material

We request that runnable source code be included as supplemental material to the article. For more information, visit Supplementing Your Article With Online Material .

In the text of the article

If you would like to include code in the text of your published manuscript, please submit a separate file with your code exactly as you want it to appear, using Courier New font with a type size of 8 points. We will make an image of each segment of code in your article that exceeds 40 characters in length. (Shorter snippets of code that appear in text will be typeset in Courier New and run in with the rest of the text.) If an appendix contains a mix of code and explanatory text, please submit a file that contains the entire appendix, with the code keyed in 8-point Courier New.

Use Word's insert table function when you create tables. Using spaces or tabs in your table will create problems when the table is typeset and may result in errors.

Academic writing and English language editing services

Authors who feel that their manuscript may benefit from additional academic writing or language editing support prior to submission are encouraged to seek out such services at their host institutions, engage with colleagues and subject matter experts, and/or consider several vendors that offer discounts to APA authors .

Please note that APA does not endorse or take responsibility for the service providers listed. It is strictly a referral service.

Use of such service is not mandatory for publication in an APA journal. Use of one or more of these services does not guarantee selection for peer review, manuscript acceptance, or preference for publication in any APA journal.

Submitting supplemental materials

APA can place supplemental materials online, available via the published article in the PsycArticles ® database. Please see Supplementing Your Article With Online Material for more details.

Abstract and keywords

All manuscripts must include an abstract containing a maximum of 250 words typed on a separate page. After the abstract, please supply up to five keywords or brief phrases.

What is the public significance of this article?

Please submit a short statement titled, "What is the public significance of this article?" of one to two sentences written in plain English for the educated public. The statement should be below the abstract in the manuscript. This text should summarize the article's findings and why they are important to Asian American psychology in terms of meeting the mission of Asian American Journal of Psychology (i.e., advance the psychological well-being of Asian American communities through affecting professional practice, research, and teaching).

This new article feature allows authors greater control over how their work will be interpreted by key audiences (e.g., practitioners, researchers, policy makers, news media, other members of the public).

Please refer to Guidance for Translational Abstracts and Public Significance Statements to help you write this text.

List references in alphabetical order. Each listed reference should be cited in text, and each text citation should be listed in the references section.

Ethical Principles

It is a violation of APA Ethical Principles to publish "as original data, data that have been previously published" (Standard 8.13).

In addition, APA Ethical Principles specify that "after research results are published, psychologists do not withhold the data on which their conclusions are based from other competent professionals who seek to verify the substantive claims through reanalysis and who intend to use such data only for that purpose, provided that the confidentiality of the participants can be protected and unless legal rights concerning proprietary data preclude their release" (Standard 8.14).

APA expects authors to adhere to these standards. Specifically, APA expects authors to have their data available throughout the editorial review process and for at least 5 years after the date of publication.

Authors are required to state in writing that they have complied with APA ethical standards in the treatment of their sample, human or animal, or to describe the details of treatment.

Orcid reviewer recognition.

Open Research and Contributor ID (ORCID) Reviewer Recognition provides a visible and verifiable way for journals to publicly credit reviewers without compromising the confidentiality of the peer-review process. This journal has implemented the ORCID Reviewer Recognition feature in Editorial Manager, meaning that reviewers can be recognized for their contributions to the peer-review process.

Masked peer review

This journal offers masked peer review (where both the authors’ and reviewers’ identities are not known to the other). Research has shown that masked peer review can help reduce implicit bias against traditionally female names or early-career scientists with smaller publication records (Budden et al., 2008; Darling, 2015).

Manuscripts that fall outside the journal's scope or exhibit plagiarism, including self-plagiarism, are not accepted. The journal employs a double-blind system for the peer-review process, ensuring that the identities of both reviewers and authors are kept anonymous. The paper will undergo a peer-review process, which involves evaluation by three experts. This includes two external reviewers and one editor affiliated with the journal, who are typically involved in the review of submitted manuscripts.
• Decision is Made: The determination to accept or decline an article is contingent upon the recommendations provided by reviewers. In the event of divergent viewpoints among reviewers, the editor will carefully consider all comments and make a final decision, taking into account the entirety of the feedback received. Alternatively, if necessary, a subsequent round of peer review may be initiated.
• Notification of the Result of Review:  The outcome of the review will be communicated to the corresponding author and subsequently shared with the other authors.

In the trend of digitalization reshaping the global value chain system, optimizing export technological structure is crucial for coping with complex international environments and enhancing core competitiveness. Based on panel data from 30 provinces and cities in China from 2002 to 2019, this study explores the impact of digitalization on the technological structure of exports. Our findings reveal that (1) digitalization development significantly optimizes the technological structure of exports, and this conclusion holds after a series of robustness tests. (2) The structural optimization effect of digitalization development is constrained by its own level of development, exhibiting nonlinear characteristics in its influence on export technological structure. (3) Enhancing the development level of technology markets, improving technology absorption capacity, and consolidating traditional infrastructure can strengthen the structural optimization effect of digitalization development on exports. Our study enhances understanding of the effectiveness and limitations of digitalization development and provides valuable insights for formulating complementary measures to foster digitalization advancement.

10. Ethical Guidelines for the Use of Human Participants in Research

AJER   requires all authors to evaluate whether there is any physical or psychological hazard during the conduct of a research which involves human participants, whether patients, volunteers, or healthy individuals. Such research studies may be classified as basic (experimental), clinical, and epidemiological research, prepared as a cohort study, case-control, or cross-sectional. Investigators are required to make a full disclosure about any such risk or hazard that the human participants may be exposed to.  It will be mandatory to obtain informed consent from all such human participants in order to safeguard the welfare and dignity of the participants. Failure to make full disclosure prior to obtaining informed consent might lead to a delay or rejection of the manuscript.   

We do not make any distinction regarding the nature of participation nor categorize participants based on the type of research. The research may be low risk or high risk, but “every” human participant, irrespective of his or her nature of participation, must give the consent of participations prior to the commencement of research. Hence, informed consent shall be required from all human participants and not with any specific type of research or category of participant.

The demographics should also include number, sex, age range and state of health of the human participants. By state of health, we mean that all participants must be in good physical and mental health, capable to take decisions throughout the tenure of the research. This information about participants’ health is required for all studies with human subjects Though payments to healthy volunteers participating in research are allowable, provided that such payment is to reimburse expenses or compensate for time and inconvenience, and is not at a level that would constitute an inducement for people to take part in studies. Such human research should be conducted only with the approval of the institutional ethical committee. The approval of the institutional ethical committee   shall be required for every research submission, irrespective of the participants’ role in the research or whether the participant is paid or not.
