This paper has two primary objectives: (1) to propose a comprehensive theoretical model that incorporates valuable insights from two complementary streams of research, and (2) to empirically test the model that explain the task-media fit and satisfaction of customer contact center users. The comprehensive model was tested using LISREL analysis on the sample of 232 users who have experience with the customer contact center. The model was supported in customer contact center context, accounting for 29% of the variance in the task-media fit, 53% of the variance in the perceived ease of use, 61% of the variance in the perceived usefulness, and 52% of the variance in the user satisfaction. The results showed that the task-media fit, the perceived ease of use, and the perceived usefulness play a significant role in influencing the user satisfaction of the customer contact center. In addition, task analyzability, media richness, media interactivity, and self-efficacy were found to influence the task-media fit. The paper concludes with discussions and implications for researchers and practitioners.

Xiaohongshu, a community-centric social media platform, has pioneered a unique e-commerce model known as 'buyer commerce,' leveraging user-generated content (UGC). Distinctively, Xiaohongshu Live Commerce focuses on fostering deep user relationships and providing superior product and information services, crucial for sustained consumer engagement. This study investigates consumer behavior in purchasing health functional foods via Xiaohongshu Live Commerce, aiming to understand the determinants of continuous usage intention. A novel theoretical framework was devised by integrating the Expectation Confirmation Model (ECM) and the Task-Technology Fit (TTF) model. The research model scrutinizes the impact of Xiaohongshu Live Commerce characteristics, such as perceived usefulness and perceived online intimacy, on task-technology fit. Additionally, it examines the moderating role of perceived risk specific to health functional foods and the influence of expectation confirmation on perceived usefulness, online intimacy, and task-technology fit, alongside their effects on satisfaction and continuous usage intention. The findings reveal that expectation confirmation positively influences perceived usefulness, online intimacy, and task-technology fit. Perceived usefulness significantly enhances task-technology fit, while perceived online intimacy and risk do not significantly affect task-technology fit. Moreover, perceived usefulness and intimacy positively impact consumer satisfaction and continuous usage intention, with task-technology fit playing a pivotal role. Perceived risk moderates the relationship between perceived usefulness and task-technology fit. These insights suggest that companies can augment consumer satisfaction and continuous usage intentions by enhancing the perceived usefulness of technology, effectively managing perceived risks, and continually improving user experience

As SNS has increased its influence on the society as a whole, companies also have started to consider how to take advantage of the new service paying specific attention to its characteristics of immediacy, sharability and interactivity. This study aims to circumstantiate the relationship between a task support tool of SNS and task-media fit, user characteristics and performance by focusing on its usage in work field. To address this issue, a Task-Technology Fit model is used to propose a research model considering the characteristics of SNS as a social element, information technology as well as its user characteristics. The outcome shows that job characteristics, virtual competence and media characteristics have a significant influence on task-media fit, whereas virtual competence and SNS characteristics variables have a significant influence on SNS usage. Besides, task-media fit has a significant influence on SNS usage and work performance while SNS usage has a significant influence on work performance. The study suggests that strategic use of SNS helps improve work performance and these individual characteristics should be considered in planning of SNS utilizing strategy.

In this paper, we draw upon Task-Technology Fit theory to investigate the fit attributes which impacted on customer preference over three virtual shopping channels which included TV home shopping, Internet shopping, and broadband applications, i.e. IPTV. The fit attributes also reflected the product category contingency, which is classified based on the degree of quality assessing difficulty on the web, such as quasi-commodity, look and feel goods, and look and feel with variable quality goods. Using the collected survey data, we employed stepwise regression analysis to validate the fit attributes in the context of performing virtual shopping task via those three distinctive media technologies. Furthermore, through ANOVA test with Duncan statistics, we reported comparative intensity of the valid fit attributes across the product categories and distinct media technologies. The results validated four critical fit attributes and significant distinctions among product categories and three virtual shopping channels. The findings provide practical insights in distribution channel design exploiting digital convergence technologies.

Purpose As the 4th Industrial Revolution proceeded, attempts to direct and utilize information technology such as robots and drones in plays have been active. Information technology, such as AI or media art, which is applied in the production of theater productions, shapes the possibility of expressing the difficulty of actors, the effectiveness of dramatic effects, and the illusion. Despite the inconsistent effects of information technology on theatrical studies, little has been done despite the fact that the research on what factors affect the audience's satisfaction through the play. Hence, The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the characteristics of information technology and theater, especially audience's revisit intention. Design/methodology/approach The research model combining the theory of task-technology fit and the experience-economic model is presented. Findings The results of the empirical analysis suggest that the fit of information technology and theatrical task enriches the audience's experience and has a beneficial effect on the dissemination and export of contents management of art management in terms of revisit as a consumer and production of theatrical performing arts. This leads to the conclusion that task-technical fit and experiential economy could be applied to the field of performing arts in theater. It may also give useful implications to related producers such as producers, directors, and actors.

The purpose of this study is to research on usability of Seoul Bike focusing on seoul citizens over-50s. Before the test, I researched Seoul Universal Design Guideline's background, purpose, principle and range through literature review. Then I did two tests based on re-establishment of the existing principle to fit the public service. First, I have noticed that using the service through an application was difficult for seoul citizens over-50s even if they have NEEDS for using Seoul Bike according to the survey. Next, I drew the result from User Task Evaluation Analysis. Due to the low app usability(the main point of the service) and accessibility and usability status was rate low, but the overall service process was comfortable and convenience. I expect this study will be a good resouce for public service design.

In the new web based learning environment which has recently emerged, a variety of new learning objectives and teaching methods suited to this learning environment have been adopted. Recently, web based project-based learning methods have received a great deal of attention from those wishing to improve learning performance. The objective of this study is to identify the impact of characteristics of communication media and instruction behavior on collaborative interaction and project performance through web based group projects. The characteristics of communication media were divided into richness, flexibility, and ease of use, and the characteristics of instruction behavior were divided into support and expression, which are independent variables. Collaborative interaction as a mediate variable, was divided into information sharing and negotiation. Project performance was the dependent variable. To verify the proposed research model empirically, an experiment was conducted in which learners participated in on-line and off-line courses with group projects. The group project was conducted virtual product development(VPD), and designed a web-site about the VPD. At the end of the project, a survey was conducted. Of the 270 students, 239 responded. The students were assigned to groups of 3 or 4 members, and represented different genders and levels of computer competence. The reliability, validity, and correlation of research variables were analyzed using SPSS 14.0, and the measurement model and the structural goodness-of-fit of the research model were verified through SEM analysis using Lisrel 8.54. We found important results as follows; First, richness and ease of use has positive impacts on each of sharing information and negotiation. This suggests that richness and ease of use are useful in sharing information which is related to the task and agreeing in opinions among group members. However, flexibility has not positive impacts on sharing information and negotiation. This implies that there is no great difference in performance of PC and information literacy of user. Second, support and expression of instructor have positive impacts on sharing information and negotiation. This indicates that instructors play an important role in encouraging learners to participate in the project and communicating with them, sharing information related to the project, making a resonable decision and finally leading them to improve a project performance. Third, collaborative interaction has a positive impact on project performance. This result shows that if the ability to share information and negotiate among students was improved then a project performance would be improved as well. Recently, in the state of revitalized web based learning, it is opportune that web-based group project is practically conducted, and the impact of characteristics of communication media and characteristics of instruction behavior on sharing information, negotiating among group members and improving a project performance is verified. On the basis of these results, we propose that forms of learning, such as web based project, could be one of solution which is to enforce interaction among learners, and ultimately improve learning performance. Moreover web-based group project is able to make up for a weakness which makes it difficult to make interpersonal relations or friendship among learners in computer mediated communication or web based learning.
