Intrinsic Motivation toward Using Information Systems: A Rich Conceptualization and Empirical Test
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Information System (IS) studies traditionally conceptualize and operationalize ‘intrinsic motivation toward using systems’ as perceived enjoyment (PE). Enlightened by Vallerand’s (1997) theorization, we develop a tri-dimensional, second-order construct – Rich Intrinsic Motivation (RIM), specifically targeting at mandatory use contexts (e.g., workplaces). RIM contains three aspects: intrinsic motivation toward accomplishment (IMap), to know (IMkw), and to experience stimulation (IMst), where IMst is analogous to the traditional PE conceptualization. We validated RIM with data from a large telecom service company that has implemented CRM systems. Our results support validity and reliability of RIM and illustrate its superiority over PE in predicting user attitude.
