The purposes of this study are in threefold; to explain the interactivity in web site, to extend the Technology Acceptance Model(TAM) in the WWW context, and to examine its relationship with the existing TAM components. We proposed that the WWW is not just web systems but interactive spaces for virtual community. Web interactivity is represented by the two constructs: system interactivity and social interactivity. We extended and empirically examined the TAM for the web context. An individual's attitude toward the use of the web site is significantly affected by the individual's perception about ease of use, usefulness, and system interactivity. At the same time, behavioral intentions to use the web site is highly related to the social interactivity. The results showed that the system interactivity and social interactivity of a web site are important factors in affecting the user's beliefs and behavior intention of such a web site, So web page providers not only have to make the web site useful and easy to use, but also need to design an interactive web page by putting both systemic aspects and social aspects.

본 연구에서는 스마트 의류에 대하여 소비자들이 느끼는 지각된 가치가 소비자 수용도에 미치는 영향을 조사하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 MP3 기능 재킷과 심박 모니터링 스포츠웨어를 대상으로 소비자들의 수용도에 대한 연구모형을 수립하였고, 선행연구들을 근거로 각 구성요인 간의 관계에 대해 연구가설을 설정하였으며, 그 경로가설을 검증하였다. Davis(1989)가 제안한 TAM을 적용하여 스마트 의류의 수용과정을 설명한 결과 모형의 적합성을 검증하였으며, 8 개의 경로가설 중 6 개의 경로가 통계적으로 유의함이 밝혀져 채택되었다. 그 결과는, 첫째, 지각된 사용용이성은 유용성을 거쳐 태도에 간접적으로 영향을 주었고, 태도는 다시 수용의도에 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 지각된 유용성은 지각된 가치에 대한 태도에 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났으나, 스마트 의류의 수용의도에는 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 분석되었다. 셋째, 지각된 가치가 스마트 의류에 대한 태도와 수용의도에 둘 다 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 스마트 의류에 대한 태도는 구매의도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

In this paper we consider the Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (DMB) Service that starts recently in Korea and gains popularity. DMB makes it possible to watch high quality TV programs while we are in motion. The service provider or the service researcher are interested in the factors that influence the user's choice of new service such as DMB. Understanding the factors make them create the powerful marketing strategies and develop the new service or product that is attractive for users. We therefore find the factors influencing the user's choice of DMB service, and propose a model for analyzing the relationship between the factors and the intention of buying. The model is based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). We extend the TAM by adding factors including functional attributes of DMB service. We survey the significant functional attributes influencing the intention of buying by using the proposed model.

The purpose of this study is to develop a new equipment acceptance model in the industrial market and test it empirically using a field survey. To define new equipment acceptance factors of employees in the organization, we used the TAM as a useful model to analyze the acceptance process of new equipment. All of the data for the TAM were collected from the employees. Prior research studied the usage of general information technology using a computer and particular software, while we apply the TAM to the new equipment adoption. In this study, both theoretical review and empirical study were conducted and the model was set through the theoretical study which was tested through the empirical analysis. Management support and training/education were shown to have a positive effect on PU and PEOU. Personal innovativeness, management support, perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use were shown to have a positive effect on behavioral intention.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the physicochemical properties of Su Ri Chwi (Synurus Palmatopinnonatifidus var. indivisus KiTAM.) cooked in different solution (distilled water, 1%, salt and 1% sodium bicarbonate added water) and time. The content of crude fiber showed the highest percentage among the alcohol-insoluble solids of cooked Su Ri Chwi. The contents of Ca and Mg were decreased by the addition of 1% sodium bicarbonate. The main neutral sugars of alcohol insoluble solids were arabinose, galactose, and glucose. The content of glucose was increased regardless of method used. The main neutral sugars of crude pectins were rhamnose, arabinose and glucose. Galactose was increased by the cooking. The gel chromatography on Sepharose CL-4B indicated that the pectin extracted from cooked Su Ri Chwi had lower molecular weight distribution than that of the raw Su Ri Chwi. Total pectin was decreased by the cooking method used. The amounts of soluble pectins of Su Ri Chwi cooked in 1% sodium bicarbonate added water were lower than those of raw material.

The present investigation was under taken to study whether the tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) of Daltons lymphoma (DL), a spontaneous transplantable murine T cell lymphoma can be activated to tumoricidal state by crude thymus extract. Intraperitoneal administration of thymus extract to DL-bearing mice resulted in activation of TAM with an enhanced IL-1, TNF and antigen presenting ability. It was found that treatment with thymus extract could also enhance the phagocytic and cytotoxic activity of TAM. However, only a marginal increase in arginase activity was observed. Till date to the best of our knowledge the effect of crude thymus extract on the activation of tumor associated macrophages has not been investigated, this study provides a new piece of information in the area of thymus therapy.

본 연구는 Virtual Space의 수용에 어떻게 영향을 미치는지를 파악하고자 하는 연구이다. 이 연구는 정보기술수용 모형의 확장모형인 TAM2(Venkatesh & Davis, 2000)를 적용하여 연구하였으며, 실제 Virtual Space를 사용한 경험이 있는 사용자를 대상으로 설문하여 SPSS와 AMOS를 이용하여 TAM2 모형을 검증하고자 하였다. 연구결과 정보기술 수용에 대한 대상이 조직 내부의 이용자로 연구했던 TAM2와 다르게 외부변수 중 직무관련성과 결과 품질에 대한 변수가 유의하지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 하지만 주관적 규범, 이미지, 결과 논증가능성 등은 유용성에 정의 영향을 주었으며, 특히 외부 변수 중 주관적 규범은 매우 큰 영향을 주고 있는 것으로 나타나 새로운 정보기술의 수용에 있어 중요한 요인으로 분석되었다. 본 연구 결과의 시사점과 한계점 및 향후 연구방향을 결론에서 제시하였다.

This paper aims to empirically examine how personal characteristics and social influence affect user acceptance of mobile web browsing service. To examine the intention to use mobile web browsing service, we applied the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) which has been widely used to explain and predict the IT acceptance to this study. This research also includes personal characteristics such as computer self-efficacy, mobile self-efficacy, and personal innovativeness in IT and social influences such as subjective norms, image, and visibility as the external variables of the TAM. The results indicate that computer self-efficacy do not directly influence ease of use, but indirectly through mobile self-efficacy. And the results indicate that mobile self-efficacy and personal innovativeness in IT have direct effects on ease of use. Empirical results also show that subjective norms and image affect usefulness. Additional theoretical and practical implications of these findings are also discussed in the paper.

인터넷의 확산과 함께 금융 산업에서 인터넷뱅킹의 등장은 은행 산업 전반에 많은 변화를 가져오고 있다. 인터넷뱅킹은 더 이상 단순한 정보시스템이 아닌 은행의 경쟁력을 결정짓는 중요한 요소로 부각되고 있다. 또한 국내 인터넷뱅킹 사용자의 증가로 인해 은행에서는 기존 인터넷뱅킹 사용자가 지속적으로 인터넷뱅킹을 이용할 수 있도록 여러 가지 전략을 개발하여야 할 것이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 정보시스템 연구 분야에서 기술 수용에 대한 많은 연구들의 이론적 기반이 되었던 계획적 행동 이론(TPB)과 기술 수용 모델(TAM)을 인터넷뱅킹 이용의도 분석에 적용시켜 인터넷뱅킹 이용 행위를 실증 분석함으로써 지속적인 인터넷뱅킹 이용 의도에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 규명하고자 하였다. 더 나아가 TPB 모형과 TAM 모형을 체계적으로 비교분석하여 인터넷뱅킹 이용의도에 관한 이론적 기초를 제시하고, 인터넷 환경에서 은행의 적극적인 인터넷뱅킹 활용에 도움이 될 수 있는 실무적 시사점을 제공하고자 한다.

In the information system service sectors, it is crucial to measure the quality of service. Especially factors determining the quality of service should be identified. For that purpose, in this study, the factors of two research models-SERVQUAL and TAM-are compared, analyzed and tested with data of public procurement system service. The result shows that the factors identified include reliability and assurance of SERVQUAL and perceived usefulness and perceived ease-of-use of TAM. Also, it is observed that the two models sufficiently explain the variance of satisfaction. This study may help improve the quality of information system service.
