This research reviews studies using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to create a modified model and instrument to study the acceptance of Internet technology by consumers. We developed a modified TAM for the acceptance of Internet-based technologies by consumers. We retained the original constructs from the TAM and included additional constructs from previous literature including gender, e...

The rapid growth of investment in information technology (IT) by organizations worldwide has made user acceptance an increasingly critical technology implementation a d management issue. While such acceptance has received fairly extensive attention from previous research, additional efforts are needed to examine or validate existing research results, particularly those involving different techn...

This study concentrates on the role of personal traits in technology acceptance by comparing which of the two personal trait constructs commonly used in IS research, personal innovativeness in the domain of information technology (PIIT) or technology readiness ind...

The bulk of research in IS concentrates on the study of early determination of performance with information technology (IT) design and implementations. Although current models are relatively good at predicting intention and usage they are still lacking validation in providing guidance to designers prior to the prediction of intention and usage in the design phase. Furthermore, causal antecedent...

Rapid digitalisation has resulted in a literature about technology acceptance that is ever increasing size, naturally creating debates the developments field and their implications. Given size of range factors, theories applications considered, this article reviewed relevant using meta-analytical approach. The objective review was twofold: (a) to provide comprehensive analysis factors contribut...

The potential to improve the quality, efficiency, outcomes, patient safety and reduce cost of healthcare by Health Information Technology (HIT) has been established by researchers. But unfortunately HIT systems are not properly utilized or are not widely available. This problem is even more glaring in developing countries. This article presents a review of some available HIT systems in order to...

Information Communication Technology (ICT) has become driving force in today’s society strengthening national economies and supporting democratic processes worldwide. ICT has been a significant area of research, but its nature changed considerably with the emergence of the Internet. The Internet service is provided through different means including telecenters. New technologies should be adopte...
