III. Research Method
This research uses a quantitative research method that
is the method for gathering,
analyzing, interpreting, and writing the findings of the study (Creswell, 2018). In this study,
data that will be collected are numbers that will be analyzed using statistics (Saunders et al.,
2009). This study uses quantitative methods because the goal of this research is to test the
hypothesis and generalize the findings to the larger population.
To collect the data, this
research uses questionnaires. The sampling design of this study is non-probability with
purposive sampling. The criteria are people aged above 18
years old and who live in
Jabodetabek area (Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, Bekasi). Jabodetabek was chosen as the
research location because Jabodetabek is Indonesia's largest megacity, playing a critical role
in social,
economic, and political spheres (Rustiadi et al., 2014).
The respondent will be asked several questions based on the criteria formed for the
respondent, and if the respondent
meets all the criteria, the respondent will be asked questions
about the variables studied. The data collections use questionnaires with Likert scales. The
Likert scale in this research uses seven vulnerable scales (1) strongly disagree (2) disagree (3)
more or less disagree (4) undecided (5) more or less agree (6) agree (7) strongly agree. This
study uses a cross-sectional study design which means that data
were gathered at a single
point in time using a questionnaire method.
This research uses Pearson correlation coefficient analysis because it discovers
multicollinearity among variables and guarantees that there is
no significant association
between them that might skew the results of multiple linear regression (Kitttikowit et al.,
2018). This is a quantitative study, and the SmartPLS analysis tool is used as a statistical tool
to determine the influence of factors in this study because it provides a Structural Equation
Model and Partial Least Square analysis. This study utilized the
Structural Equation Model
(SEM) as the instrument and Partial Least Square (PLS) analysis to investigate the
associations between brand image, country of origin, trust, and purchase intention (Makawi,
et al. 2020). The conceptual modeling in SEM PLS is justified
and based on past research
since it must be developed and constructed.
