With the ability to generate new content like text, images, and audio from user inputs, generative AI has demonstrated considerable potential in enhancing organizational efficiency, improving service delivery, and automating complex tasks. In the government sector, generative AI offers opportunities to automate citizen inquiries, enhance administrative processes, and provide more personalized public services. This paper aimed to study the factors influencing user adoption of generative AI for government information services in Thailand. The sample included individuals, focusing on their intentions regarding the use of generative AI for accessing government information. Participants were selected using a convenience sampling method, and data was collected through 400 questionnaires. The data was then analyzed using descriptive statistics and a structural equation model (SEM) to test the hypotheses. The research results indicate that the factors influencing user adoption of generative AI for government information services in Thailand are social influence and user experience, which include perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and trust. The overall model explains 48.5% of the variance in the intention to use generative AI for government information services (R² = 0.485). The suggestions are proposed to increase adoption rates by developing strategies that involve engaging influencers and advocates, promoting community engagement and education, and improving the overall user experience. These findings provide valuable insights for government agencies and policymakers in Thailand on effectively promoting the adoption of generative AI, contributing to more efficient and accessible government services.</p> Wasinee Noonpakdee Copyright (c) 2024 Rajapark Journal https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/274204 Tue, 15 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0700 The Effect of Digital Management Accounting Capability on the Sustainable Organizational Success of Thai-Listed Firms https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/273925 <p>This research attempts; 1) to investigate the effects of digital management accounting capability on sustainable organizational success; 2) to investigate the effects of proactive business vision, organizational resource readiness, modern accounting systems, digital technology growth, and intense competitive forces on digital management accounting capability; 3) to examine the moderating effects of digital transformation and employee learning on the antecedent-digital management accounting capability research relationship. Data were collected via a questionnaire from 169 listed firms on the Stock Exchange of Thailand and analyzed using descriptive statistics, content analysis, and statistical regression. The findings reveal a significant positive association between digital management accounting capability and sustainable organizational success. Proactive business vision, modern accounting systems, and intense competitive forces all have a significant impact on digital management accounting capability. Additionally, digital transformation and employee learning can potentially moderate these relationships, enhancing the understanding of the factors driving digital management accounting capability.</p> Priyakorn Nakrong, Kornchai Phornlaphatrachakorn, Nittaya Phosrichan, Kanthana Ditkaew Copyright (c) 2024 Rajapark Journal https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/273925 Tue, 15 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0700 The Impact of China's Digital Finance on R&D Investment and Regional Innovation Performance https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/272967 <p>We use a mediation effect model to explore the impact of digital finance on regional innovation based on the China digital finance index and interprovincial panel data from 2011 to 2021. We find that the development of digital finance in China is conducive to promoting regional innovation performance, and there is regional heterogeneity. The breadth of digital finance coverage does not significantly impact regional innovation performance. In contrast, the depth and degree of digital finance use substantially impact regional innovation performance. The impact of digital finance on regional innovation performance is not significant in the eastern region but is more important in other regions. At the same time, digital finance promotes regional innovation performance through the intermediary effect of R&amp;D investment, and R&amp;D investment plays a mediating role in promoting regional innovation performance through the depth of digital finance use and the degree of digital support services. The Chinese government should fully understand the role and mechanism of digital finance in promoting regional innovation performance, formulate targeted and differentiated regional development policies, and help digital finance achieve regional innovation performance while developing digital finance.</p> Shaohe Zhang, Ke Nunthasen, Nirote Sinnarong, Warapon Nunthasen Copyright (c) 2024 Rajapark Journal https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/272967 Tue, 15 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0700 The Impact of Digital Transformation on Enterprise Performance https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/274736 <p>This study aims to explore the impact of digital transformation on enterprise performance.

Furthermore, the association between perceived risk, perceived fit and brand trust is examined. The study selected the Chinese heritage brand Wu Liang Ye as a case study and utilized a self-administered questionnaire for data collection. Data were collected from 605 residents of the brand’s location employing a combination of purposive and random sampling methods. The hypothesized model was assessed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The findings show that perceived risk significantly affects brand extension success in heritage brands, and psychological contract violation (PCV) plays a significant moderating role in the relationship between perceived risk and brand extension success. This study offers new insights into managing heritage brands by highlighting the critical role of perceived risk and psychological contracts in brand extension success. It advances the literature by elucidating the complex interplay between consumer perceptions and brand extension strategies, providing a valuable framework for heritage brand managers to balance market expansion with brand equity preservation.</p> Change Lu, Thitima Pulpetch, Liou-Yuan Li Copyright (c) 2024 Rajapark Journal https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/274048 Tue, 15 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0700 The Antecedents of Positive Word of Mouth and Revisit Intention of Thai Tourists Traveling to Ecotourism Attractions in Thailand https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/273305 <p>This research aims to 1) develop a causal relationship model of antecedents of positive word of mouth and revisit intention of Thai tourists traveling to ecotourism attractions in Thailand and 2) validate consistency of a causal relationship model of antecedents of positive word of mouth and revisit intention of Thai tourists traveling to ecotourism attractions in Thailand with empirical data.

This research employs both quantitative and qualitative methodologies. The sample includes deprived farmers from Nong Kung Si, Sahatsakhan, Na Mon, Don Chan, Kamalasai, and Kuchinarai Districts. These farmers were selected using the TPMAP and Kalasin Happiness Model (KHMV2), encompassing 550 occupations related to cassava. Data collection instruments included a revenue-based survey, an assessment of technology adoption and deployment, and an analysis of innovator levels. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and content analysis. The research yielded the following results: 1) The social opportunity lies in empowering farmers to engage in agricultural learning, enabling them to become innovators who can apply their knowledge to develop others and expand networks. 2) In the cassava farming chain (Mun Kum-Kha), 550 deprived farmers experienced an average income increase of 481,625 THB, or 137.71 percent, following the research project. This income growth was driven by the use of appropriate technologies such as charcoal kilns and presses, which allowed farmers to collect and process remaining oil rhizomes from their plots into biomass charcoal for sale. Additionally, the production of wood smoke vinegar helped reduce pest control costs in general agricultural plots. Cassava scraps were chopped, dried, and sold, while cassava waste was processed into animal feed, ultimately evolving into a learning network capable of entering the market.</p> Kruawan Malasri, Indhus Sributta, Boonsiri Pidtasang, Parichat Kinnaree , Panadda Chanthakol Copyright (c) 2024 Rajapark Journal https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/274664 Tue, 15 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0700 The Guideline for Development of Community Model Based on Low Carbon Tourism for Upgrading to A Green Tourist Destination; A Case Study of Agro-Tourism Attraction at Maha–Sawat Canal Phutthamonthon District, Nakhon Pathom Province https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/273302 <p>The guideline for the development of a community model based on low-carbon tourism for upgrading to a green tourist destination; a case study of agro-tourism attraction at Maha- Sawat Canal Phutthamonthon District, Nakhon Pathom Province.

The research employs a mixed-methods approach, including quantitative research to study the opinions of 400 road users regarding major road agencies and qualitative research through in-depth interviews with 21 high-ranking officials experienced in managing road maintenance budgets. The results indicate that the allocation of road maintenance budgets needs to be revised, taking into account traffic volume and the physical characteristics of each type of road. In terms of impact, local roads are the most affected due to inefficient management, a lack of skilled personnel, and insufficient budgets. Therefore, it is concluded that improving budget allocation guidelines to reflect the physical characteristics and responsibilities of the agencies will enable the appropriate distribution of resources and budgets according to standards and formats. Emphasizing existing expert agencies will help maintain road conditions effectively and efficiently.</p> Chatchai Jomdech, Vatcharapol Sukhotu, Thammanoon Hengsadeekul Copyright (c) 2024 Rajapark Journal https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/272541 Tue, 15 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0700 The Relationship Among Wellness Tourism, Attitude Toward Wellness Activities, Social Media Norms, Satisfaction Wellness Activities and Intention to Participate Wellness Activities. Case Study: Thailand Riviera Area https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/273986 <p>This study focuses on wellness tourism in the Thailand Riviera Area (Petchaburi, Prachub Kiri Khun, Chumporn, and Ranong). The objective of this study is to examine the cause effects of Thailand tourists’ intent to participate in wellness activities, attitude toward wellness activities, social media norms, and satisfaction with wellness activities. Questionnaires were collected from 308 Thai tourists who traveled to the Thailand Riviera area and collected data that was then analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM). The structural model proved to be a well-fitting model. The results indicate that the tourists’ attitude toward wellness activities and social media norms has an indirect effect on satisfaction with wellness activities. At the same time, satisfaction with wellness activities has an indirect effect on the intention to participate in wellness activities.</p> Suppacha Phetsome, Suwaree Ashton Copyright (c) 2024 Rajapark Journal https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/273986 Tue, 15 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0700 Legal Measures for Control of Noise Pollution from Mass Rapid Transit https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/274176 <p>This research aimed to 1) study the importance of issues, situations, and the impact of noise pollution from the Mass Rapid Transit system in Thailand; 2) study the basic environmental principles and guidelines from the World Health Organization, government policies, and laws related to prevention and addressing noise pollution from the Mass Rapid Transit systems in England, the United States, and South Korea; 3) study the laws and policies related to preventing and addressing noise pollution from the Mass Rapid Transit system in Thailand; and 4) prepare recommendations, guidelines, and legal measures to prevent and address noise pollution issues from the Mass Rapid Transit within the context of Thai society. This research project is qualitatively based on documentary analysis with data collection, textbooks, related articles, and electronic information from domestic and international sources. The research findings indicate that Thailand’s laws currently lack specific provisions for controlling noise pollution from Mass Rapid Transit and the existing provisions that could potentially be applied to such cases are inadequate. The researcher therefore proposes policy recommendations to expedite the completion of the 15-year Master Plan for Noise and Vibration Pollution Management (2023 – 2037) by the Pollution Control Department. Enhance policies to increase the number of specialized personnel in controlling noise pollution from mass rapid transit and allocate additional funding for controlling noise pollution from mass rapid transit. Legal Recommendations: In the short term, propose the enactment of secondary legislation to establish noise standards and methodologies for measuring noise levels from mass rapid transit. Advocate for designating "Mass Rapid Transit" as a pollution source requiring regulation under Section 68 of the Enhancement and Conservation of National Environmental Quality Act, B.E. 2535. In the long term, propose the drafting of ‘the Noise Pollution Control Act B.E. ...,’ a new legislation specifically addressing all aspects of noise pollution control and defining a category specifically for regulating noise pollution from mass rapid transit.</p> Kanyarat Chantra Copyright (c) 2024 Rajapark Journal https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/274176 Tue, 15 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0700 Immediate Action Required: Legal Measures for Occupations Changed from the COVID-19 Pandemic https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/274700 <p>This comprehensive study aimed to investigate 1) the types of jobs during a COVID-19 pandemic in Thailand, 2) the factors associated with altering types of occupations during a COVID-19 pandemic, and 3) the government welfare benefits offered after informal workers’ employment changed. This quantitative study collected data through a questionnaire using purposive sampling. The quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, including frequency, percentage, and mean and inferential statistics. The research also raises questions regarding domestic and international laws, regulations, and measures related to informal workers. The survey discovered that the sample’s average age was 29 years, and over one-third were now unemployed. Many in the sample group who had jobs before the epidemic became unemployed and no longer working (69.4%). Regarding occupational patterns, older persons are less likely to change careers since they have more job security, work experience, and the ability to adjust to changing circumstances. Meanwhile, younger people, or the new generation, are more inclined to choose jobs that match their interests. Regarding work careers, it was discovered that people with no job limits and who could explore extra employment were more likely to modify their career patterns. The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the working-age population, particularly those working in the informal sector, because they have no employer or social protection. As a result, these workforce groups continue to require more excellent government help than others. As a result, the government should extensively promote knowledge of benefits to the working population, particularly in informal sectors, because welfare rights are essential to them. Currently, no law explicitly supports this.</p> Phetcharat Saisombat, Prapee Apichatsakol Copyright (c) 2024 Rajapark Journal https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/274700 Tue, 15 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0700 Selection of Alternative Energy Projects to Implement in Agriculture Cooperatives Using AHP Technique https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/273259 <p>This research aimed to analyze the criteria and alternative energy projects appropriate for use in agricultural cooperatives.

This research is quantitative. The selection of the sample is a purposive sampling by selecting only companies listed in the SET100 index between 2020 and 2022, excluding companies with incomplete data and companies in the financial industry group. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to analyze the data in the research. The research found that financial policy related to dividend payment had a positive association with financial flexibility, while cash holding and capital structure did not affect financial flexibility. Moreover, financial flexibility also did not affect firm value. Lastly, financial policy related to cash holding, capital structure, and dividend payment did not have an indirect effect on firm values through financial flexibility. This is because the debt level of the company is high; although the company can access capital sources, the company should not have more financing to maintain the financial stability of the company.</p> Ochin Hermkhunthod, Pattanant Petchchedchoo, Siridech Kumsuprom, Panarat Panmanee Copyright (c) 2024 Rajapark Journal https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/273750 Tue, 15 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0700 A Factor Analysis of Work Passion Characteristics of New Generation Personnel in Digital Content Industry https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/273095 <p>In this dissertation, the researcher examines (1) the factors of the work passion characteristics; analyzes (2) the factors of the work passion characteristics; and confirms (3) the factor analysis of the work passion characteristics of new generation personnel in the digital content industry.

This paper examines the impact and mechanism of digital finance on corporate technological innovation by matching the Peking University Digital Inclusive Finance Index (2011-2022) provincial data with data from Chinese A-share listed companies. Using bidirectional fixed effects models and mediation effect models for empirical analysis, the study finds that digital finance significantly promotes corporate technological innovation, and this conclusion remains robust after robustness tests. Digital finance enhances technological innovation by alleviating financing constraints, with financing constraints mediating this process. The impact of digital finance on technological innovation varies by scale and industry, with its effect being more pronounced for small and medium-sized enterprises and high-tech firms. This research contributes to providing more efficient financial support for corporate technological innovation through digital finance. It offers new insights for optimizing the development of digital finance and formulating targeted policies for technological innovation.</p> Nana Yang, Ke Nunthasen, Waraporn Nunthasen, Nirote Sinnarong Copyright (c) 2024 Rajapark Journal https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/274844 Tue, 15 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0700 Providing Knowledge on How to be a Good Performance Host to Support Creative Community Tourism, Tha Mai Sub district, Chum Saeng District, Nakhon Sawan Province https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/272352 <p>This research aims to 1) study how to provide knowledge on being a good host to help learners understand tourist behavior and expectations, 2) explore guidelines for community development to establish a friendly social system with local scholars, outstanding attractions, and unity to promote creative community tourism, and 3) investigate approaches to apply knowledge of being a good host in developing creative community tourism by understanding tourist needs, using technology, adjusting activities, and building sustainable relationships.

The legal status of children involved in, and at risk of joining, armed groups is analyzed. The question examined is whether children engaged in armed groups should be attributed the status of offender or crime victim, insofar as children so involved may later commit crimes as offenders. In addition to studying action and its consequences, this article offers a retrospective look at the origins of juvenile involvement in armed groups. Results show that children involved in armed groups and assigned to perform actions have been abused by the groups because enlistment or solicitation of children is a crime under international law. Children involved in armed groups have two overlapping statuses: offenders and crime victims, each of which affects their entitlements differently. From the issue of determining the status of children involved in such armed groups internationally, a central basis for assessing the status of such children should be considered a dual identity with undefined status, with one status solely attributed to the child.</p> Tirawat Pratumthong Copyright (c) 2024 Rajapark Journal https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/273927 Tue, 15 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0700 Psychology in Caring for the Elderly https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/RJPJ/article/view/273035 <p>This academic article aims to present the application of psychology to the elderly.
