The paper examines the applicability and sufficiency of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) in the context of social software and newer generation knowledge management systems (KMS). A reinterpretation of the two TAM constructs “Perceived Usefulness” and “Perceived Ease of Use” in light of expectancy-valence theory reveals that the TAM predominantly focuses on performance expectations on diff...

Many innovations have entered human life with the rapid development of technology and its widespread use. The adaptation process people to these is very important in terms efficiency sustainability. In this research, factors affecting acceptance metaverse technology, which one most encountered last period, were examined. context, was analyzed structural equation modeling (SEM) within scope PBT ...

Recent papers claim the technology acceptance model [TAM] is exhaustively examined by researchers and, thus, additional studies of traditional style may only provide a marginal contribution. Instead of adding new constructs to the TAM to describe its dependent or independent variables better, we develop an approach to combine the well-established constructs of TAM, which measure perceptions of ...

An elaborate literature review was conducted in the area of technology acceptance identifying seminal authors and their views. Several models were examined and three out of theses were chosen based on the popularity in the health care industry. The findings will be presented in this paper, organized in two sections. The first part starts with brief definitions of basic terminology, descriptions...

The information systems (IS) literature has long emphasized the importance of user acceptance of computer-based IS. Evaluating the determinants of acceptance of information technology (IT) is vital to address the problem of underutilization and leverage the benefits of IT investments, especially for more radical technologies. This study examines individual acceptance of biometric identification...

As healthcare costs continue to spiral upward, healthcare institutions are under enormous pressure to create cost efficient systems without risking quality of care. Healthcare IT applications provide considerable promises for achieving this multifaceted goal through managing inofrmation, reducing costs, and facilitating total quality management and continuous quality improvement programs. Howev...

This paper tests a new predictive model of IT acceptance in conditions where use is characteristically sporadic. The model utilizes cognitive constructs from the well-known technology acceptance model (TAM) [8] in combination with habit and a new construct measuring perceived regularity of use. Initial tests indicate that the model explains several important effects of regularity and predicts s...
