The objective of this paper is to identify the moderator role of age in the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology: Intention to Use internet banking in Sudan. To achieve this objective the researchers adopted the questionnaire to data collection. A total of 375 questionnaires are distributed 207 respondents are well-responded. Used SPSS, Excel, SmartPLS to analysis the data collected. The results indicate that the age (34yrs and less) does prove as a moderator in effort expectancy, social influence, and intention to use Internet banking. Also, the age generally does not prove as a moderator in internet banking awareness and intention to use internet banking. The study recommended to study the effect of income and education level on acceptance of e-banking services.

This study investigates some key determinants of the intention to use internet banking in Vietnam. The research model was developed based on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT). The model was tested by a sample of 264 non users of internet banking in HCM city. The results show that performance expectancy, social influence, perceived credibility and anxiety significantly impact customers’ intention to adopt internet banking. In addition, results also show that effort expectancy and self-efficacy do not affect the intention to use internet banking.

The purpose of this research is to analyze factors that influence behaviour intention to use technology information system and use behaviour technology information system using UTAUT (unified theory of acceptance and use of technology). That factors are performance expectancy,effort expectancy, perceived of credibility, social influence, and facilitating condition and moderated by age, gender and experience. Sample of this research is investment using services community (M-Dinar) through internet. One hundred and twenty four respondents using M-Dinar had participated in this research. The collecting data used a questionnaire survey that posted at facebook and sent it via electronic-mail. Data were analyzed using a Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA). The result showed only social influence that effecting behaviour intention to use M-Dinar technology significant. The other factors aren’t have significant influence to behavoiur intention to use M-Dinar technology.

This research paper examined the continued intention of college students to use DiDi mobile car-sharing services in China. The unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) was used as the theoretical framework while the data analysis was completed with SPSS. The results have demonstrated that performance expectancy, reliability, efficiency, and security and privacy were significant predictors of the continued intention to use mobile car-sharing services. Contrary to our expectations, effort expectancy was not a significant determinant of the continued intention to use mobile car-sharing services. In addition to these direct effects, the moderating impact of trust in the internet was also examined. The moderating analysis showed that trust in the internet showed no significant moderating impact on the relationship between performance expectancy, effort expectancy, reliability, efficiency, and security and privacy and the continued intention to use mobile car-sharing services. The implications of these findings are discussed.

The use of welfare technologies in the home setting has drawn increased attention in healthcare. From a historical perspective, medical technologies were designed for hospital settings. Digitalization and internet of things have changed the structure of our society. The aim of this paper is to describe the factors that determine a user’s intent to adopt new welfare technologies in the context of homecare. The phenomenon was being examined by the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology. This study was to show that performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and facilitating conditions are significant factors in determining a user’s intention to use new welfare technologies. While, the use of welfare technologies was rare in homecare.

Managing everyday wellness using sensors requires user buy-in and acceptance. The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) was used to measure at D-0 the acceptability (a priori), and at D-21 the acceptance of an ambulatory monitoring system under development, the SHERPAM system. Interviews with the participants revealed that they no longer viewed the system in the same way at the different stages of the study. The results of the qualitative analysis suggest that the time of the research led the participants to stop seeing themselves as potential future users and to take on the role of critical testers of the technology (which corresponds more to a user test). This role change led participants to question the usefulness of the technology, which affected their intention to use the technology in the future (5.30 vs. 4.24; t = 2.58 *). This research identified the reasons why it was crucial to have a fully functional device in the second phase (acceptance study). The results of this study suggest that it is inappropriate to undertake an acceptability study when the technology is under development. While the SHERPAM platform has been the subject of several user tests, none have been carried out in a situation of use. Thus, this study seems to suggest that the dysfunctions observed are more related to the absence of a development phase in the daily activity of the users. Thus, to ensure a good appropriation of the technology and to predict its use, the technology must not only be in perfect working order, but must also have been developed according to the daily activities of the individuals.

This study investigated factors that influence teachers’ use of mathematics software (in this case GeoGebra) for teaching and learning. Participants in the study were purposefully selected from a group of teachers that have received software training, have access to computers, and are familiar with the software. Seventy-five respondents completed the structured questionnaires. Multiple regressions were used to investigate the relationship between the four constructs of the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology. These constructs are performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and facilitating conditions on teachers’ intention to use the mathematics software. This study found that the combination of the four above mentioned constructs explained 30% of the variance in respondents’ intention to use the software. Facilitating conditions were not found to directly influence whether or not people actually used the software because all of them have access to computers. Teachers’intention to use GeoGebra was found to predict the actual use of GeoGebra for teaching and learning.Keywords: mathematics; teachers; technology; ICT; software

On the Intention to Use an Online Learning Platform FeatureOur research project gives more insight into antecedents of students' intention to use features of an online learning platform. This paper introduces the study year in the UTAUT (Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology) model. We also include three constructs that are mentioned in literature on student satisfaction with classic (offline) classes. Statistical tests show that new constructs are statistically significant antecedents of the intent of students to use the new feature. Two new constructs seem as important as the most important UTAUT variablesperformance expectancyandeffort expectancy. The R2of our model is significantly higher than the R2that is achieved when the classic UTAUT is applied to our dataset.

This study explored the important role of demographic factors such as gender, age, and education in the adoption of mobile government (m-government) services. The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model was used as the theoretical foundation whiles the data was captured and analyzed with SPSS and SmartPLS. The results have demonstrated that gender is a significant predictor of both the intention to use and performance expectancy of m-government services. However, gender does not determine mobile self-efficacy. In addition, age and education were both were significant predictors of performance expectancy, mobile self-efficacy and the intention to use m-government services respectively. The implications of these and other findings of the study are thoroughly discussed.
