Complementary, social-psychological research proposes attitude strength (AS), a construct that has been so far insufficiently examined in the context of technology acceptance. Attitudes toward technology…

Hübner, Nicolas; Savage, Corey; Gräsel, Cornelia; Wacker, Albrecht – Journal of Curriculum Studies, 2021

This suggests that without persuaded change agents, innovations are unlikely to be implemented…
