The findings show a link between the independent variables (i.e. perceived privacy, perceived behavioral control, perceived quality of website, and subjective norms) and the consumer's purchase decision toward online shopping based on various factors discussed in depth in this paper. Furthermore, commitment as a moderating variable strengthens the impact of perceived privacy, perceived behavioral control, perceived quality of website, and subjective norms on consumer purchase decision toward online shopping.
