Students Attitudes

This study aims to examine the factors that support or hinder students’ attitudes towards using information and communication technology (ICT) in problem-based learning (PBL) using the technology acceptance model (TAM) (Davis, 1989) among polytechnic students. A total of 737 first-year polytechnic students in Singapore participated in the cross-sectional survey study by completing a questionnaire (The assessment of attitude and intention to use ICT tools among polytechnic students), which gathered both quantitative and qualitative data. Based on the analysis of the quantitative data, perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use are found to be significantly and positively correlated with attitudes towards using ICT. Results from the analysis of the qualitative data suggest five major themes (engagement, communication, information gathering, collaboration and efficiency) on what students enjoyed most about using ICT. On the other hand, Internet connectivity, usability, technical issues and ICT competency are the four other themes that categorised the difficulties students faced using ICT. An important implication is to develop polytechnic lecturers’ competency in the use of ICT-enabled learning tools as a priority to enable them to successfully integrate ICT in their PBL lessons.

Study Results

Although technology trends and acceptance have been considered crucial topics, limited research has examined stress-specific factors such as health anxiety in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic based on people’s attitudes toward a mobile health app using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). Accordingly, this study primarily highlights the psychological determinants stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic that affect the usage of a mobile health app. The study followed a cross-sectional design and adopted a snowball sampling technique to collect the data. The findings showed a significant association between perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and event-related fear and Tabaud App intention. The relationships between Tabaud App intention and COVID-19 anxiety on Tabaud App usage were also revealed. The study found a significant association between perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness. Additionally, the multi-group analysis showed that only two paths related to Tabaud App intention, perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness, differed significantly between males and females. Additionally, women experienced anxiety disorders more than men. The study contributes to the previous knowledge on the field by examining the psychological determinants resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic that influence using a mobile health app, namely, event-related fear and COVID-19 anxiety. The study results may help governments, health policymakers, and health organisations in Saudi Arabia contain the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Mobile Authentication

Background: Nigeria is one of the countries with the highest burden of fake and counterfeit drugs. Interventions such as Mobile Authentication Service (MAS) is being deployed by the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) to assist patients in confirming the authenticity of their medications. Therefore, this study evaluates the acceptance of Nigerian patients of MAS. Objective: To investigate awareness and acceptance of MAS among patients visiting the outpatient pharmacy of the Lagos University Teaching Hospital.Method: This is a cross-sectional survey. The study was conducted in the outpatient pharmacy department of the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, Lagos State from May, 2017 – August, 2017. A structured questionnaire, developed using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) concept (α = 0.74), was used to assess acceptance of MAS among patients. Linear regression and correlation statistics wereused to determine predictors of MAS acceptance. Results: Significant association exist between Awareness of MAS and Use (X = 69.116, p = 0.000), Procurement at licensed community stores and Use (X =14.456, p = 0.001) as well as Acquisition at Hospital Pharmacy and Use (X = 46.053, p = 0.000). Also, Perceived Usefulness (PU) and Perceived Ease of Use (PEOU) had a strong association with respondents’ Attitude to Use (ATT) {PU and ATT, r = 0.719, p < 0.005; PEOU and ATT, r = 0.806, p < 0.005}. Conclusion: Though awareness and acceptance of mobile authentication service is high, its use is moderate in practice. Further studies on how to improve the use of this service among the Nigerian populace is necessary.

Abstract Objective This study focused on patient portal use and investigated whether aesthetic evaluations of patient portals function are antecedent variables to variables in the Technology Acceptance Model. Methods A cross-sectional survey of current patient portals users ( N  = 333) was conducted online. Participants completed the Visual Aesthetics of Website Inventory, along with items measuring perceived ease of use (PEU), perceived usefulness (PU), and behavioral intentions (BIs) to use the patient portal. Results The hypothesized model accounted for 29% of the variance in BIs to use the portal, 46% of the variance in the PU of the portal, and 29% of the variance in the portal’s PEU. Additionally, one dimension of the aesthetic evaluations functions as a predictor in the model – simplicity evaluations had a significant positive effect on PEU. Conclusion This study provides evidence that aesthetic evaluations – specifically regarding simplicity – function as a significant antecedent variable to patients’ use of patient portals and should influence patient portal design strategies.

Data of this survey research were collected through an online survey using Google form and analysed descriptively. The survey was distributed to all students and 205 of them responded the survey coming from three departments: English Language and Arts Department, Indonesian Language and Arts Department, and Japanese Language and Arts Department in FKIP of Universitas Riau. The questionnaires in the survey used Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) proposed by Davis (1986) with four indicators to measure the students’ acceptance: Perceived Usefulness (PU), Perceived Ease of Use (PEU),  Behavioral Intention (BI), and Actual System Use (AU).   The students’ acceptance levels in terms of  Perceived usefulness (62,8%) was in very good category; Perceived Ease of Use (67,2%) was in very good category; Behavioral Intention (69%) was in very good category; and Actual System Use (48,55%) was  good category. The result shows that the level of the students’ acceptance of Google Classroom, in general, is Very Good (62%). It means, the students positively accepted Google Classroom as a platform in blended-learning. Behavioral Intention was the indicator with the highest percentage (69%) which explains that students are interested and intend to increase their use of the Google Classroom. Data also shows that out of the three departments, English Language and Arts Department has the highest average mean score (3.67) followed by Indonesian Language and Arts Department (3.57) and Japanese Language and Arts Department (3.54). This study implies that English department students experienced more acceptance in using the Google Classroom compared to the other two departments.

Telemedicine Technology

Objectives: This study aimed to examine acceptance levels of and attitudes towards telemedicine among users in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and assess associations between perceived usefulness (PU), perceived ease of use (PEOU), attitudes towards use (ATU) and behavioural intention of use (BIU) in relation to telemedicine technology. Methods: This cross-sectional study used a simple random sampling design to obtain an appropriate sample from throughout the UAE. The technology acceptance model (TAM) and Rogers’ diffusion of innovations (DOI) theory were applied as the conceptual basis for this study. An Arabic/English version of the questionnaire was distributed via email to physicians and nurses, members of the public (including patients), healthcare directors and information technology professionals. Data were collected from 1st March to 30th August 2019 and analysed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). Results: A total of 330 participants were included (response rate: 85.7%). BIU and PU were considered important elements of TAM in the adoption of telemedicine services compared to the other variables. The association between PEOU (beta = 0.033, P = 0.692), PU (beta = 0.034; P = 0.679) and ATU (beta = 0.055; P = 0.421) in relation to telemedicine were positive but not significant. However, BIU was found to be a strong significant predictor of actual usage (beta = 0.224; P = 0.003). Conclusion: This study confirms TAM’s applicability in the adoption of telemedicine services in the UAE. The results show that users’ perceptions were significantly related to their behavioural intention to use telemedicine. Factors influencing telemedicine technology are likely to vary as technology acceptance in other geographical areas may differ from the sample presented here. Keywords: Telemedicine; Patient Acceptance of Healthcare; Attitude; Behaviour; Intention; United Arab Emirates.

Health Consumers

This research identifies the underlying drivers impacting on health consumers’ social media usage and acceptance behaviours using technology acceptance model (TAM) as the theoretical lens. A cross-sectional survey of 265 health consumers was conducted through a mall intercept technique. Participants in the survey were over the age of 18 and had access to a public or private healthcare service provider. The data were analysed using structural equation modelling (SEM). The major findings show that perceived ease of use, privacy threat, information quality, social influence and self-efficacy influence health consumers’ social media adoption behaviours. Perceived usefulness was not found to affect health consumers’ social media adoption behaviours. The moderation analysis showed that influences of privacy threats are non-significant for mature age respondents and non-frequent users of social media. This study’s findings have important implications for designing social media strategies for the healthcare industry. The drivers that positively impact on health consumers’ social media usages can be integrated into meaningful strategies to capture the attention of potential consumers. They need to be educated, informed and engaged as health consumers so that they employ social media effectively to their advantage.
