AbstractWith the rapid development of mobile internet and the continuous replacement of new smart phones, the advancement of we-media age, and advent of the era of 4G, reading revolution has opened. This paper is to study which factors affect users’ continuance intention. We discussed the relationship between experience involvement, subjective norms, and the dimensions of perceived value as well as users’ continuance intention. The results show that the model which this paper put forward could effectively explain the hypothesizes, and this paper mainly draws the following conclusions: subjective norm significantly affect experience involvement; on one hand, experience involvement significantly and directly affect users’ continuance intention, and on the other hand, indirectly affect users’ continuance intention by significantly affect the users’ perceived usefulness, perceived pleasure and perceived cost; experience involvement can’t significantly affect users’ perceived image enhancement. We suggest the mobile reading providers pay more attention to the free experience process, increasing its convenience, enriching its content and rationalizing its cost. And they should also optimize the mobile reading to improve users’ perceived image enhancement. Mobile reading providers should let users more involved to achieve value co-creation.

<p>The primary purpose of this study was to explore the key factors that could affect mobile learning continuance intention (MLCI), and examine the moderating effect of perceived flexibility advantages (PFA) on the relationship between key mobile learning elements and continuance intention. Five hundred undergraduate students who had previously adopted mobile devices to learn English took part in this study. Partial least squares (PLS) analysis was utilized to test the hypotheses in this study. It has been found that the perceived usefulness of mobile technology, subjective norm, and self-management of learning could be closely linked to mobile learning continuance intention. With particular respect to the moderating role of perceived flexibility advantages, it has been demonstrated that PFA could moderate the relationship between perceived usefulness of mobile technology and mobile learning continuance intention, as well as the association between subjective norm and mobile learning continuance intention, whereas PFA did not moderate the link between self-management of learning and mobile learning continuance intention.This report has further added to the body of knowledge in the field of mobile learning through empirical examination.</p>

Purpose – Existing research in the electronic banking area has not deeply investigated the determinants of continuance intention to use smartphone banking services. The purpose of this paper is to attempt to do so by investigating continuance use intention at the post-consumption phase. Design/methodology/approach – It developed and validated an extended framework based on the expectation-confirmation model (ECM). A total of 301 smartphone users who subscribed to online banking services participated in the study. Findings – The results revealed that users’ confirmation after the initial use of smartphone banking services has significant impact on perceived security, perceived usefulness, trust, and user satisfaction. Perceived security significantly influences trust while perceived usefulness significantly influences trust, user satisfaction, and continuance use intention. Both user satisfaction and self-efficacy also significantly influence continuance use intention. Trust exerts significant impact on user satisfaction. The findings have implications for banks in planning their strategies to increase consumers’ continuance intention to use smartphone banking services. Originality/value – Most studies have focussed only technology adoption and have paid little attention on use continuance in the context of electronic or smartphone banking. This manuscript fills the gap by focussing on the post-consumption phase. In special, the manuscript develops an extended framework based on the ECM to address IS use continuance. In addition, the topic is timely as mobile internet has been flourishing in the world.

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.
