This study aims to explore and identify factors of respondent's on the definition of 'smart community facilities', their usage and satisfaction in Malaysia. Study carried out in four sites which were Kota Belud, Kemaman, Lundu and Putrajaya. Data was collected through qualitative method where interviews was carried out with several smart community members in answering factors that drives the usage/participation, satisfaction and continuance intention from using the 'smart community facilities'. Interpretation from the qualitative approach reveals that community thinks infrastructure, content and digital services will help to generate and build up 'smart community'. This will give the benefit for the whole community as well as improve individual efficiency, lifestyles and well-being. Findings demonstrated that the advance of Internet will enhance people usage on being 'smart' and efficient and it should be further improved with better infrastructures, systematic development with sophisticated digital technology services, facilities and structured content, and also safety-security measures in place.

본 논문은 사회네트워크(social network system, SNS)에 대한 사용자의 추가적 사용의도를 개인정보보호의 관점에서 고찰하였다. SNS에서 사용자는 SNS의 운영 시스템과 사용자간 정보의 교류가 이루어지는 SNS사이트라는 서로 다른 두 주체와의 상호작용을 통하여 개인정보의 보호 정도를 인지하게 되고, 이러한 인지정도는 사회네트워크시스템과 SNS사이트에 대한 신뢰에 각각 영향을 미치고, 이 신뢰는 사용자의 사용의도를 증가시킨다는 연구모델을 설정하고 가설을 검정하였다. 주요 연구 결과는 SNS 시스템과 SNS 사이트에 대해 사용자가 인지하는 개인정보보호의 수준은 SNS시스템과 SNS사이트에 대한 신뢰 수준에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 반면, 사용자의 추가적 사용의도는 단지 SNS 시스템의 신뢰에 의해서만 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다.

This study examines the factors affecting the usage and diffusion of mobile easy payment services which is fast growing industry recently. After wide reviewing previous research about mobile payment, Some factors are identified as the factors influencing intention to use mobile easy payment services-confidence, innovativeness, mobile self-efficacy, relative advantage- through several mediating factors- perceived ease, perceived usefulness, perceived risk. Empirical study for a research model showed confidence, mobile self-efficacy and relative advantage are effective to the intention to use mobile easy payment services via perceived usefulness and perceived risk. Based on the results of the study, some practical implication for customer retention and acquisition are suggested.

The mobile Internet (M-Internet) service is a form of subscription-based information Systems (IS) services in which usage continuance is essential for the eventual success of the service providers. However, previous research on IS continuance has focused mainly on the technology user aspects despite the fact that the user plays a dual role of being a technology user and service consumer in many IS usage contexts. This study thus aims to examine IS continuance based on the theoretical foundation of dedication-based and constraint-based customer relationship development in the context of M-Internet service. Four customer relationship development factors (satisfaction, perceived value, familiarity, and switching costs) are identified and tested on how they affect continuance intention from a survey conducted on M-Internet service users. Then, the results of this study are discussed along with its limitations and implications.

The objective of this study was to analyze the two contrary effects of usage habits on the acceptance of a new IT. The one is a positive one which may be caused by expertise from the repetitive usages of a current system while the other is a negative one which would be due to lock-in. For this purpose, this study suggested three hypotheses which account for not only the negative effect of the habit in current system on the intention of using a new system but also the positive moderation effects on both relationships of perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use with the intention of a new system. For the empirical tests of the hypotheses, this study surveyed acceptance of Google Docs for the users who have a habitual used word processor. The analysis by partial least square approach showed that the hypotheses were statistically supported.

The objective of this study is to find the factors influencing the use of mobile service. We extracted critical study variables according to literature reviews about adoption of information systems, those under the internet environment and mobile internet adoption for theoretical foundation. TAM suggested by Davis(1985) has explained the acceptance mechanism with the following constructs: perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, attitude toward use, behavioral intention and actual usage. After studying prior literature reviews, this study investigated the group of people using mobile services. The result of study claims that it has same results with previous TAM, especially between personal innovativeness and attitude toward use have strong statistical relations. On the other hand, there haven't been any statistical relations between perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness and between perceived usefulness and behavioral intention, either. In conclusion, use of mobile service can be promoted by developing various kinds of mobile service, designing device and interface to use mobile service more convenience and familiar, stimulating user's innovative characters and recognizing mobile service more useful in real life.

The technology acceptance model (TAM) is a lot of cited in information technology adoption and usage researches. TAM has a base in psychological research, is parsimonious, explains usage behavior quite well, and can be operationalized with valid and reliable instruments. But TAM has been conducted primarily in volitional environments of the adoption of new technology. This paper discusses technology acceptance in accounting information systems to examine TAM with subjective norm and perceived behavioral control in mandated using environments. The results show that in mandatory environments such as accounting information systems, subjective norm is not a significant effect on the behavioral intention. Perceived usefulness and perceived behavioral control are significant the factor on the behavioral intention. The implications of finding are that perceived usefulness and perceived behavioral control play major role in technology acceptance rather than subjective norm in accounting information systems with mandatory environments.

인간과 컴퓨터의 상호작용에서 사용성 (usability)은 사용 의도 (usage intention)를 결정짓는 중요한 요소로 주목을 받아 왔다. 하지만 최근에는 사용 의도 (usage intention)를 결정짓는 새로운 요소로서 재미 (fun to use)가 주목을 받고 있으며, 'Funology'라는 새로운 개념도 제시되었다. 재미에 대한 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있지만, 기존 연구들은 재미가 무엇인지는 여전히 명확히 정의하지 못하고 다른 감정들과 차이점을 살펴보거나 재미를 유발하는 몇몇 요소들을 제시하는데 그치고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에는 재미란 무엇인지 정의를 내리고, 사용자들이 재미를 느끼는 요소들에 대해서 살펴보고자 한다.

This paper seeks to investigate the effect of technology readiness on the usage of smart entry service. The questionnaires were distributed to passengers who were experience with smart entry service and structural equation modeling was utilized to analyze the data. The results revealed that optimism had a positive impact on perceived usefulness and insecurity had a negative effect on perceived enjoyment. Perceived ease of use had a positive impact on perceived enjoyment, perceived usefulness and intention to use. In addition, perceived usefulness had a positive impact on intention to use. The results from this paper can be used as basic knowledge for developing the smart entry service activation plan.

기술발전에 따른 혁신제품 및 서비스에 대한 연구는 유용성과 편의성을 중심으로 그 수용 및 저항을 서로 다른 관점에서 보아왔다. 그러나 소비자 혹은 사용자들이 느끼는 혁신제품 및 서비스에 대한 태도와 평가는 수용하려는 측면과 저항하려는 측면이 동시에 작용하며 그 결과로서 사용의도 혹은 구매의도가 결정된다고 볼 수 있다. 이에 본 연구는 혁신제품 혹은 서비스가 갖는 다양한 속성을 기술수용모형(TAM: Technology Acceptance Model) 에서의 지각된 유용성(Perceived Usefulness) 과 지각된 편의성 (Perceived Ease of Use) 개념을 사용자 지각에 기초하여 상대적 이점, 유용성, 편의성, 기술혁신성, 사용법의 변화 인식, 위험지각 등으로 구체화하고 각각의 개념이 수용적 태도와 저항에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 아울러 수용적 태도와 저항이 사용의도에 미치는 영향력을 동시에 분석 및 비교하였다. 연구에서 얻어진 결과를 중심으로 혁신제품에 대한 소비자 중심의 관리적 시사점도 제시하였다.
