The Subject

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.

Moderator Role

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.

And Performance

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.

Online gambling has skyrocketed in recent years. As such, knowing the determinants of consumer usage behavior is crucial in understanding online gambling services. This study has as main objective the construction of an explanatory model of the online gambling services usage behavior, based on the incorporation of perceived risk in the conceptual framework of the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology 2 (UTAUT2). The empirical validation of the model was performed by conducting an online survey to a convenience sample of 212 Portuguese online players. Data were processed using the PLS-SEM methodology. The results evidence that performance expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions, hedonic motivations, price value, habits, as well as perceived risk influence the intention to use online gambling services.

On the basis of the updated educational program were discussed issues of application of design technologies, in biology lessons in the section «Cell Biology» on the method of spiral training. Communication between parents, teachers and students is provided for in project technology. The point is that interest in the topic will increase by asking questions to parents. I was asked to voice my question, share my ideas through group work. The analysis of the works of these scientists is carried out and some stages of application are noted. In order to increase the interest of students studying the subject of biology, the specifics of the use of technology in project training are determined. In the field of biology are defined stages of work aimed at further development and consolidation of data on the topic «Cell Biology». The role of the teacher was shown. Highlighted the relationship of parents with children and friendship, communication in the classroom.

Rapid Pace

Penetration of information technology (IT) in almost every sector of the Indian economy is occurring at a very rapid pace. This has brought about a great transformation from a paper world to a digital world. Employees face new technological changes in their workplace almost every day. Some employees welcome the changes brought about by technology while others resist it and become defensive. These differences in employees’ reactions are influenced by a host of moderating variables existing in the environment. For the purpose of the present study, the researchers have adopted three moderating variables, namely, age, gender and experience (from the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology [UTUAT] model of Venkatesh, Morris, Davis, and Davis (2003, MIS Quarterly, 27, 3, 425–478). Hence, the article attempts to study the influence of the aforementioned moderating variables on the employees’ acceptance of IT at their workplace. The study has been conducted in the post offices falling under the Nalbari-Barpeta division of the Assam postal circle. The study is based on both the primary and secondary data.
