Radical! The Influence of Perceived Radicalness on Technology Acceptance
نویسندگان
چکیده
Technology acceptance has been a popular topic in the information systems research field for the past several years. A variety of determinants have been found to be significant in predicting the acceptance and adoption of information technologies. Although there have been extensive research on the technology acceptance model (TAM), the impacts of the perceived radicalness of IT have not been examined. We argue that the factors related to perceived radicalness of technology play an important role in the adoption of the technology and the behavior of its users. The potential contribution of this work is in extending the TAM model to account for possible differences in potential adopters’ behaviors when a radically new technology is introduced.
