Background: ChatGPT, as a cutting-edge technology in education, is set to significantly transform the educational landscape, raising concerns about technological ethics and educational equity. Existing studies have not fully explored learners' intentions to adopt artificial intelligence generated content (AIGC) technology, highlighting the need…

Immersive technologies strive to enhance users' digital experiences by enabling more interactive, engaging, and realistic virtual environments. Despite the growing popularity and advancements in immersive technologies, achieving widespread user acceptance remains a significant challenge. In addition, previous acceptance models may not fully…

Various factors, including technical, organisational, cultural, and individual, can influence how people adopt digital technologies (DT). However, different contexts have produced similar yet distinct results when researchers integrated these various factors into the technology acceptance model (TAM). Two critical factors in the Islamic…

Pre-service teachers' often suboptimal use of technology in teaching can be explained by low levels of technology acceptance. The present study aims to investigate how technology acceptance can be promoted. Based on the Technology Acceptance Model by Davis (1986), we hypothesized that encouraging pre-service teachers to constructively engage with…

This study incorporated the technology acceptance model (TAM) and theory of planned behavior (TPB) to interpret students' perception of MOOCs. This study was based on a survey questionnaire; all 525 respondents were undergraduates in China. A five-point Likert scale was used to collect data in order to measure relationships among the constructs of…

This investigation aimed to ascertain latent profiles of university students predicated on fundamental factors influencing their intentions to acquire knowledge in artificial intelligence (AI). The study scrutinized four dimensions: supportive social norms, facilitating conditions, selfefficacy in AI learning, and perceived utility of AI. Through…

Technological advancements in recent years have accelerated the development of information and communication technologies, introducing numerous innovations. One prominent innovation is the concept of the metaverse, which has gained significant popularity and is increasingly influencing various sectors, including the economy, art, entertainment,…

Based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and supplemented by social cognitive theory and gender schema theory, this study investigated the interactive mechanism of TAM by incorporating self-efficacy and gender as two factors in students' usage of sports bracelets. Data were collected from 682 Chinese college freshmen. Results indicated that…

The rapid growth of electronic learning (e-learning) platforms has raised concerns about cybersecurity risks. The vulnerability of university students to cyberattacks and privacy concerns within e-learning platforms presents a pressing issue. Students' frequent and intense internet presence, coupled with their extensive computer usage, puts them…

A growing number of studies are focusing on the effect of teachers' knowledge on their behavioral intention to use technology in teaching.

Background: There is an increasing number of technological resources available to speech and language therapists (SLTs) for use in clinical practice, but the factors that influence SLTs' selection and use of such resources are not well understood. In related fields, technology acceptance models have been employed to explain users' adoption of…

With the development of virtual reality technology, 3D multi-user virtual environments (MUVEs) have attracted increasing research attention and are thought to bring many learning benefits in higher education. However, the widespread and sustained application of MUVEs in higher education lies in learners' intention to use them, but the mechanism…

Educational social network sites have many uses in the field of education. The present paper aims to determine factors influencing students' behavioral intention to use a popular educational social network site, Edmodo. Using an extension of the technology acceptance model, we analyzed quantitative responses of 218 university students, registered…

Mobile-learning (M-learning) apps have grown in popularity and demand in recent years and have become a typical occurrence in modern educational systems, particularly with the deployment of M-learning initiatives. The key objective of this study was to reveal the key factors that impact university students' behavioural intention and actual use of…

Technology acceptance studies are interesting because they are practical and theoretically helpful in explaining the adoption and intention to use a particular technology. There is a large amount of research on e-learning and other technologies in the literature, but there is limited evidence to explain why secondary school students' intention to…
