چکیده

This paper explores the relationship between the three beliefs about online shopping ie. perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use and perceived enjoyment and intention to shop online. A sample of 150 respondents was selected using a purposive sampling method whereby the respondents have to be Internet users to be included in the survey. A structured, self-administered questionnaire was used to elicit responses from these respondents. The findings indicate that perceived ease of use (β = 0.70, p<0.01) and perceived enjoyment (β = 0.32, p<0.05) were positively related to intention to shop online whereas perceived usefulness was not significantly related to intention to shop online. Furthermore, perceived ease of use (β = 0.78, p<0.01) was found to be a significant predictor of perceived usefulness. This goes to show that ease of use and enjoyment are the 2 main drivers of intention to shop online. Implications of the findings for developers are discussed further.
