This paper reports the results of a confirmatory study of a Task Technology Fit (TTF) model. Three dimensions of fit: Task Match, Ease of Use, and Ease of Learning, are applied in the context of digital video tools use for oral presentation in a classroom environment. Students completed a digital video presentation that acted as a substitute for an in-class oral presentation. An existing survey...

This study develops an integrative model and conceptually-based scales for evaluating the extent to which national culture impact the B2B technology adoption in Thailand. It is the first paper that introduces a method to measure the fit between Thai culture and B2B technology adoption, which the researcher refers to ‘cultural fit’. The discussion on the current research gap in national cultural...

Social networking sites (SNS) have greatly transformed the way in which people communicate and exchange various kinds of information. Although prior studies have extensively examined the antecedents of mobile data service (such as mobile news) adoption, there is little understanding on what has occurred when people pursue better-quality information from their peers via wireless networks and mob...

This study examines whether language-specific input influences children’s nonlinguistic spatial cognition as they acquire their first language. Recent research on infant cognition has shown that preverbal infants can make a distinction between tight-fit and loose-fit containment relations. This distinction is systematically made in Korean (kkita ‘fit tightly’), but not in English (in). Using a ...

Research on the effectiveness of group support systems (GSS) technology has begun to explore the “task/technology” fit hypothesis, which suggests an interaction between task type and communication mode. Some limited research employing generic tasks and ad hoc groups has found that GSS-mediated groups perform about the same as their face-to-face counterparts on creative tasks but significantly w...

The importance of user acceptance of technology is critical for the success of technology implementation in the health-care sector. Spending on the procurement of new technology is growing in the hope of improving patient care as well as providing better services to the public, thus it is important that the technology is used to achieve its intended purpose. Success or failure of technology imp...

We discuss an initial research concept for the application of the task-technology fit model to measure the factors that influence the utilization of interactive simulation for executive and managerial training. Interactive simulation is widely used by the military for senior leadership and managerial tasks. Simulation is also used commercially for training similar skills. We propose measuring t...

mance, it must not only be utilized, but it must also be a satisfactory tool for the critical tasks at hand. As a counter example, Pentland (1989) found that IRS auditors had positive attitudes toward PCs and utilized them extensively, but that the PCs had little positive impact on their performance, or even negative impacts. According to Pentland, this may have been because PCs were utilized f...

Collaboration in research continuously gains importance. Recent developments in online collaboration technology, namely social research network sites (SRNS), specifically aim to support research collaboration. SRNS allow researchers to present themselves, to network, to communicate, and to collaborate. Acceptance of this technology by researchers has received little academic attention. Understa...
