Bicycle sharing services have played an active role in building a green travel system in China, but this trend has also caused problems, such as users arbitrarily stopping on the roads or the destruction of shared bicycles. Based on data collected by means of a survey that we designed, a regression analysis is used to test the influence of use perception and consumer characteristics on the intention to sustainably use shared bicycles by measuring the intention to: continue using the service, park the bicycles in an orderly manner, and care and protect the bicycles. We find that: (1) perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, consumer innovation, and standardized use behavior have a significantly positive impact on the intention to continue using and park shared bicycles in an orderly manner; (2) perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and consumer innovation also have a significantly positive impact on the intention to care and protect shared bicycles; and, (3) standardized use behavior has no significant impact on the intention to care and protect shared bicycles. Moreover, urban air quality plays a positive regulatory role in the relationship of perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and consumer innovation with the intention to sustainably use the service.

This research explores the influencing factors of learning satisfaction in blended learning. Three dimensions are proposed: perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and learning motivation. It studied how these variables affect students’ learning satisfaction. The research hypotheses are: (1) Perceived ease of use positively affects perceived usefulness; (2) Perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use will have a positive effect on learning motivation; (3) Learning motivation positively affects learning satisfaction; (4) Perceived usefulness has a positive intermediary effect on the relationship between perceived ease of use and learning motivation. Participants included 173 freshmen who took the first-year interactive game design course at Ling Tung University in Taichung, Taiwan. The questionnaire survey method is applied in this research to analyze the relationship between the variables and verify the hypothesis based on the collected 173 valid questionnaires. The partial least square method structural equation model (PLS-SEM) is used to carry out structural equation modeling to study the relationship between latent variables. It explains that the perceived ease of use affects the perceived usefulness. Perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use have a positive impact on learning motivation. Learning motivation has a positive impact on learning satisfaction. Perceived usefulness as an intermediary factor of perceived ease of use has an indirect impact on learning motivation. The contribution of this research is to provide empirical evidence and explain what factors may affect learning satisfaction. Some other related factors that may affect learning satisfaction should be taken as the factors that teachers should pay attention to when implementing blended learning.

We drew on 2 theoretical frameworks—the technology acceptance model (TAM) and uses and gratifications theory (UGT)—to examine the underlying factors that affect the intention to continue using the global social networking site, Instagram. We proposed 2 perceptual factors from the TAM related to use (perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness) and gratification factors from UGT (social interaction, entertainment, information, and self-expression) as key determinants of the intention to continue using Instagram. Participants were 371 college students in South Korea, who completed an online survey. Results showed that perceived ease of use and gratification of both social interaction and entertainment had a positive impact on users' intention to continue using Instagram. These findings advance theoretical and practical understanding of the increasing popularity of Instagram.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the impact of the environmental and organizational moderators on farmers’ e-commerce adoption behaviour. Data were collected from 384 wheat farmers in Kazakhstan. Descriptive analysis and multiple group analysis findings revealed that environmental (i.e. government) and organizational moderators had an insignificant effect on the relationship of the dependent variables (between behavioural intention and usage behaviour). However, there is a positive impact of the environmental (i.e. government) and organizational moderators on the relationship between the independent variables (Perceived Usefulness, Perceived Ease of Use, Social Influence, Facilititating Conditions, Compatibility) and dependent variable (behavioural intention).

This study examines the relationship among reading app reviews, trying apps, attitude and intention to use the communication apps. Attitude towards apps and intention to use apps change as a result of app reviews and trials. An experiment was conducted in a rural area testing twelve communication apps with 80 participants who were not communication app users. The relationship of the variables was analyzed using statistical regression. This study found that treatments do not affect attitude or intention to use. Meanwhile, significantly, attitude can moderately predict intention to use. Intention to use communication apps was not related to app reviews and trials but related to participants’ attitudes. The findings suggest that this experiment did not use an appropriate method to confirm theoretical modelling of the TAM, TRA and TPB. Future research involving other variables (perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use etc.) is needed to reveal comprehensive modelling to predict the intention to use.  Penelitian ini mengkaji hubungan membaca review aplikasi, mencoba aplikasi, sikap, dan niat menggunakan aplikasi komunikasi. Sikap terhadap aplikasi dan niat menggunakan aplikasi berubah sebagai hasil dari review dan mencoba aplikasi. Eksperimen dilakukan di wilayah perdesaan untuk menguji dua belas aplikasi komunikasi dengan 80 partisipan yang bukan pengguna aplikasi komunikasi. Hubungan antarvariabel dianalisis menggunakan regresi statistik. Dari penelitian ini ditemukan perlakuan pada eksperimen tidak memengaruhi sikap maupun niat menggunakan aplikasi. Namun, sikap dapat memprediksi niat menggunakan aplikasi pada level moderat. Niat menggunakan aplikasi komunikasi tidak terhubung dengan review dan mencoba aplikasi tetapi terhubung dengan sikap partisipan. Hasil temuan menunjukkan eksperimen ini tidak cocok untuk mengonfrmasi model teori TAM, TRA, dan TPB. Penelitian selanjutnya yang melibatkan variabel lain (perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, dsb) diperlukan untuk membuat model komprehensif yang dapat memprediksi niat menggunakan aplikasi.

Unit Dose Dispensing (UDD) is a drug distribution system in hospitals, where drugs are packaged in the form of a single dose and submitted to patients for one use during treatment. One of the hospitals that has applied UDD with information system utilization is Panti Rapih Hospital. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the application of UDD using Management Information System (SIM RS) with the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) method. This research used descriptive quantitative analytic to present facts systematically. This method is also used to understand and conclude the facts more easily. Hypothesis testing was conducted to see the relationship and influence between variables. This test was conducted using Partial Least Square (PLS) analysis. The hypothesis testing applied was two-way probability with a significant level (α) of 5%. When the p-value of less than 0,05, the data is significant. In addition, the relationship between variables is seen from the original sample value. The result shows the relationship of perceived ease of use to perceived usefulness, the relationship of perceived usefulness to attitude toward using, and the relationship of perceived usefulness to behavioral intention to use has a negative and insignificant effect. On the other hand, the relationship of perceived ease of use to the attitude toward using, the relationship of attitude toward using to the behavioral intention to use, and the relationship of behavioral intention to use towards actual system usage conditions have a positive and significant effect on implementation of UDD using the SIM RS in Pharmacy Installation Panti Rapih Hospital.

Purpose Global digital payment transactions increase continuously. Due to the inconsistencies that occurred across the research findings, past researchers have called for further investigation to verify and empirically test the mobile payment acceptance model. The purpose of this paper is to develop an integrative model that is derived from the multiple technology acceptance models (TAM)’s a theoretical framework and past literature to understand how consumers decided to adopt mobile payment. By simultaneously testing mechanisms, namely, ease of use, usefulness and risk, the current study will be able to advance scholarly knowledge of the underlying consumer’s attitude and behavior that link social influence to intention to use. Design/methodology/approach A total of 370 valid responses were collected using self-administered questionnaires distributed via online platforms, a representative for Thai consumers. An ordinary least square regression and bootstrap analyzes were conducted through PROCESS Macro to analyze the moderated serial-multiple mediation model in the consecutive inducing of social influence, perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness and perceived risk toward the consumer’s intention to use mobile payment. Findings Within the context of consumers evaluating a mobile payment, statistics significant were found for the hypothesized direct and indirect effects of perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness on an intention to use. The results showed that Thai consumers’ intention to use mobile payment was significantly affected by their attitudes in terms of usefulness and the less complication in using the applications. It is confirmed that social influence indirectly affects intention to use via the increase of perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness. The study also found a significant interaction between perceived risk and perceived usefulness toward intention to use. Practical implications It is recommended to service providers to continue improving the user-friendliness, navigation, integrity and furnish the system with more value-added activities within the mobile payment application. It is also essential for the company to deliver tutorials and clear and easy-to-follow instructions to customers. At the same time, the marketer should develop marketing strategies to promote the usefulness and simplicity of using the applications to the consumers. When consumers experienced the easiness and usefulness of the applications, these could overcome the resistance feeling to use due to the concern on any potential risk. Originality/value The study contributes to the existing body of knowledge on consumer usage behavior and TAM by integrating all important variables and developed a parsimony framework to explain consumers’ usage adoption on mobile payment. Moreover, the current study was the very first that proposed and tested a serial of multiple mediations of perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness, moderated by perceived risk, in the relationship between social influence and consumers’ intention to use mobile payment and discovered a moderating role of perceived risk toward the relationship between perceived usefulness and mobile payment usage intention.
