Study Notes

Technology Acceptance Model (TAM)

  • Introduced by Davis (1989), based on Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) by Fishbein and Ajzen (1975)
  • Explores users' adoption of computer systems, influenced by behavioral intention to use, attitudes, and two beliefs: perceived usefulness and perceived ease-of-use

Perceived Usefulness (PU) and Perceived Ease-of-Use (PEOU)

  • PU: degree to which a person believes using a system enhances job performance
  • PEOU: degree to which a person believes using a system is free from effort
  • Positive PU and PEOU lead to positive perceptions and increased acceptance of technology

Relationship between PU and PEOU

  • PU mediates the effect of PEOU on attitude and intended use
  • PEOU influences attitude and use indirectly through PU

Applications of TAM

  • Social influence and cognitive instrumental processes
  • Control, intrinsic motivation, and emotion
  • Integrating risk and acceptance of e-commerce
  • Flow theory in online consumer behavior
  • Acceptance of telemedicine technology
  • Application usage on the World Wide Web
  • Learning goal orientation

Contributions and Adjustments to TAM

  • Researchers have applied and adjusted TAM to electronic environments and internet adoption
  • Proposed dimensions of internet banking: bank credibility, perceived risk, and perceived trust
  • Hypothesized relationships between constructs and intention to adopt internet banking in Jordan
