Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between online banking fraud experience and fear of cybercrime and distrust of online banking services, and to understand how perceived usefulness of online banking moderates the relationship.
Design/methodology/approach
The number of respondents involved in this study was 271 people from the Central Java region, Indonesia. Statistical analysis was performed using Jeffreys’s Amazing Statistics Program software to examine the relationships and interactions between the variables studied.
Findings
Experience of online banking fraud is positively related to fear of cybercrime and distrust of online banking services. Perceived usefulness of online banking moderates the relationship between online banking fraud experience and fear of cybercrime and distrust of digital payments. Perceived usefulness is negatively related to the level of distrust of online banking services.
Research limitations/implications
Overall, the implications of this study underscore the importance of dealing with the risks of cybercrime in online banking services. By focusing on security, user awareness and the role of perceived usefulness, banking service providers can create a safer and more trusting environment for users of online banking services. This also contributes to the development of more innovative services and can increase customer satisfaction and trust.
Practical implications
The practical application of these findings is important for financial institutions and online banking service providers. Companies must improve cybersecurity with the latest technology and provide education about online security practices. Transparent communication and better customer service will help overcome customer fears. Compliance with security regulations and technological innovation is also important to protect online banking services. With these steps, customer security and trust can be improved, and the adoption of online banking services will increase widely.
Social implications
The social implications of this research are increasing public awareness about cybersecurity, consumer protection and strengthening trust in online banking services. With joint efforts, a safer and more trusting environment in using online banking services can be realized.
Originality/value
The originality of this research lies in the use of perceived usefulness of online banking as a moderating variable to reduce the negative impact of online banking fraud experience. With a focus on the psychological effects of customers experiencing fraud, this research seeks to rebuild trust and improve the security of online banking services.

Abstract
Purpose
This study aims to explore the main features contributing towards the formation of brand loyalty among children, using a neural network topology.
Design/methodology/approach
The paper used an exploratory study using a semi-structured interviewed with children, psychologist and head of the school. This paper uses survey to collect data and analysed using artificial neural networks (ANNs).
Findings
Several interesting insights emerge in respect of children’s consumer behavior and, in particular, the factors of emotional authenticity, brand partnerships, brand relationship, brand salience and brand personality in the priming of children’s brand loyalty emerge as important factors.
Research limitations/implications
This research uses data from Indonesia which is considered as a developing country. Further research is required in the developed country context, as this may present different perspectives. Furthermore, the sample in this study consists of children aged between 10 and 12 years, but there are many age groups into which children can be divided, e.g. below 3 years; 3-5 years; 6-8 years; 9-12 years and even 13-15 years. Hence, future research needs to include these different groups of children to gain a more complete picture of the children’s market.
Practical implications
A children’s market-driving strategy really should be related with the “grass roots” needs of the segment. Hence, marketers ought to spend two or three days in the company of children and continually update themselves in respect of what is happening in those children’s rapidly changing world. Additionally, marketers need to relate all their marketing activities to the building of autobiographical memory. All events, promotions and other marketing strategies should be integrated to ensure that autobiographical memory really underpins a future market as the children of the present become adults of the future.
Originality/value
The study contributes to the existing literature and appreciation of the various factors and the inter-relationships between them that have relevance for product longevity in the children’s market.

Abstract
Investigates the differences in protocols between arbitral tribunals and courts, with particular emphasis on US, Greek and English law. Gives examples of each country and its way of using the law in specific circumstances, and shows the variations therein. Sums up that arbitration is much the better way to gok as it avoids delays and expenses, plus the vexation/frustration of normal litigation. Concludes that the US and Greek constitutions and common law tradition in England appear to allow involved parties to choose their own judge, who can thus be an arbitrator. Discusses e‐commerce and speculates on this for the future.
