Purpose – Building upon studies of value theory and social psychology literature, the purpose this paper is to empirically test a research model that incorporates antecedents (mobile convenience, service compatibility, security risk, cognitive effort) mobile (utilitarian hedonic value), influence (social norms number peers) examine factors affecting user intention toward networking sites (SNSs). Design/methodology/approach The proposed was evaluated using survey data collected from 318 users...

Purpose The number of smartphone users has increased with the maturity mobile networks, which not only led to a new lifestyle but also facilitated development application services. Smartphones are regarded as essential communication devices. Currently, diverse groups people considering using payment Thus, motives for well individual continuing usage great research interest. purpose this paper is examine behavioral motivations underlying intentions continue payment....

AbstractSocial networking sites (SNSs) are the most popular social platforms for developing personal networks. They provide multiple interactive functions users to create and use large To determine why people exhibit 'stickiness' SNSs, this study uses gratifications theory as an underlying structure builds research model with factors of motivational needs interactivity. Our results showed that needs, information human–message interaction, human–human interaction crucial affect SNSs. The...

Purpose In recent years, the ongoing development and rapid popularization of mobile devices, not only has brought new forms lifestyle but also boomed a wide array service contents, allowing users to engage in entertainment, study other daily activities, addition business transactions. To explore factors that affect users' continued use app software, this paper aims take into account utilitarian value privacy, as well security intends propose an integrated research model based on information...

This study explored the factors that affect intention of users to continue using mobile learning (m-learning) applications (apps). The influence habit on user behavior toward information systems has been extensively discussed in literature, but its role continuance when it comes their usage apps, especially m-learning rarely reported. To obtain a comprehensive understanding behaviors regarding use this constructed theoretical research framework based expectation confirmation theory and flow...

Purpose Smartphones have become a critical medium by which people remain in contact with family, friends, and colleagues. A variety of factors contributed to the rapid prevalence smartphones. The most influential factor is definitely mobile platform or operating system (OS). purpose this paper employ theoretical framework based on an information systems success model theory values examine that affect smartphone users’ switching OSs. Habit regarded as moderating variable construct integrated...

Purpose This study aims to examine members’ perceptions of interactivity in brand communities on social networking sites the Super Basketball League (SBL) context Taiwan. Design/methodology/approach The proposed model was empirically evaluated using survey data collected from 332 followers SBL teams’ Facebook pages their communities. Structural equation modeling used relationships research model. Findings results suggest significant between perceived and community benefits, including special...

Logistics tasks heavily depend on reliable shipment and accurate tracking information. For this reason, logistics today have evolved into a high-technology industry. Distribution is no longer simply about moving cargo the road or via air from location A to B, but complex process based intelligent system for sorting, planning, routing, consolidation that supports faster transportation. [1] The purpose of study was investigate how RFID technology implemented adopted in Taiwan’s Specifically,...

Purpose Virtual reality (VR) offers unprecedented immersion and interactivity in education, working learning from home have become the norm during COVID-19 pandemic. This study empirically investigated factors affecting use of a VR online system (VROLS). Design/methodology/approach To explore users’ continuance behavioral intentions toward using VROLSs, research framework was formed comprising that constitute benefits (i.e. pull factors) costs push factors); these included perceived value,...

Power consumption is known to be a crucial issue in current IC designs. To tackle this problem, multiple dynamic supply voltage (MDSV) designs are proposed as an efficient solution modern However, the increasing variability of clock skew during switching power modes leads increase complication reduction MDSV In paper, we propose tunable tree structure by adopting adjustable delay buffers (ADBs). The ADBs can used produce additional delays, hence latencies and become tree. Importing buffered...

The virtual reality technology, VR, features feeling of blending in, interactivity and imagination.It not only improves on the limitations conventional learning methods but also enhances communication contents messages via imitation.Over past decade, incorporation information technology in education has been an important research topic.Following computer-aided teaching, interactive online learning, distance teaching mobile earlier days, VR is now regarded as a new wave trend facilitating...

Modern mixed-signal/RF circuits with digital calibration capabilities could achieve significant performance improvements once the process is completed; however, time often very long - in order of hundreds milliseconds or even seconds. As testing such devices would require completion first, lengthy result unacceptably time. In this paper, we propose design-for-testability modifications and acceleration techniques for adaption algorithms to reduce required a digitally-calibrated pipelined ADC....

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to develop a research model examining users’ perceived needs-technology fit mobile communication software through motivational needs and technological characteristics. study investigated the effects on user satisfaction intention continue using software. Design/methodology/approach This proposes based task-technology theory uses gratification theory, incorporating key determinants continuance toward An online survey instrument was developed collect data,...

As social media has become a prominent platform for networking, many organizations have begun to establish more than one brand community, as set of supplements their branded websites. Once most online interactions take place on networking sites rather sites, such customer-oriented will much complicated and unpredictable. It is real challenge build successful customer-brand relationships through sites. Hence, that wish enhance loyalty by running communities face the effectively conducting...

ABSTRACT The investigators aimed to explore the prevalence of depressive symptoms and associated factors among older residents with intact cognitive function in nursing homes Taiwan. A cross‐sectional descriptive correlational research design was used. convenience sample 178 without impairment recruited from 36 Southern questionnaires included demographic data; Barthel Index, which assesses ability perform activities daily living; Geriatric Depression Scale Short Form. Among function, 39.3%...

Abstract Virtual reality (VR) has developed rapidly and drawn the attention of businesses. E‐commerce practitioners have used VR to improve business performance satisfy consumers' needs by enhancing shopping experience increasing purchase intention. To explore effects platforms on intention, this study a theoretical framework basis task–technology fit. The comprises technological characteristics user (intrinsic extrinsic motivation) can be investigate perceived needs–technology fit identify...
