This paper provides a richer understanding of the groupware technology acceptance by evaluating the use and the acceptance of Webcube in the Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM), one of the Malaysian Public Universities. The focus is on Webcube’s ten knowledge sharing features, which are Email, Homepage, News, Shoutbox, Journal, Calendar, Community Center, File Manager, Forum and Weblog. The researc...

We conducted a quantitative meta-analysis of previous research on the technology acceptance model (TAM) in an attempt to make well-grounded statements on the role of subjective norm. Furthermore, we compared TAM results by taking into account moderating effects of one individual-related factor (type of respondents), one technology-related factor (type of technology), and one contingent factor (...

The Technology Acceptance Model, popularly known as the TAM, has been widely used in the information systems literature to explain individual adoption of information technology. In the 1990’s a number of studies either extended the model by identifying antecedents to technology acceptance or have replicated and validated the model. But few studies have examined the role of organization culture ...

ABstRAct The technology acceptance model (TAM) is a popular model for the prediction of information systems acceptance behaviors, defining a causal linkage between beliefs, attitudes, intentions, and the usage of information technologies. Since its inception, numerous studies have utilized the TAM, providing empirical support for the model in both traditional and Internet-based computing settin...

The efforts of educators in the last three decades have, among other things, focused on the use of information technology (IT) in education. It has become commonplace to view information systems both as an effective carrier of course content as well as a cost-effective tool to improve student learning outcomes. One of such technologies is the e-book. Decision-makers in the education field need ...

Background: Mobile health is one of the new technologies for the utilization of health information. For its successful implementation as well as any other system, we must primarily measure the adoption and use of its factors. The purpose of this study was to systematically investigate published articles about the factors affecting the adoption of mobile health and categorizing the factors affec...

The purpose of this paper is to review literature used Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) as their theoretical foundation in non-discretionary use (NDU) environment. NDU means system that user who worked in the organisation must used the system without exception as long as they continue working in order to complete their job tasks. Three limitations of TAM used in NDU environment were indentifie...

The Technology Acceptance model (TAM) is one of the most influential theories in Information Systems. However, despite the model's significant contributions, the intense focus on TAM has diverted researchers’ attention away from other important research issues and has created an illusion of progress in knowledge accumulation. Furthermore, the independent attempts by several researchers to expan...
