A Questionnaire-based Approach on Technology Acceptance Model for Integrated Multiple Ankle Technology Device on Patient Psychology

Abstract

Sports injury is an issue that frequently occurs among athletes. The most common sports injuries are ankle sprains. Hence, to overcome this problem, the National Sports Institute and the Malaysia Sport School has set up special clinics for athletes undergoing rehabilitation treatment. In RMK 10 (2010-2015), the government aims to provide the best medical facilities and producing high value medical device. In spite of the advancement and variety of available ankle rehabilitation technology device, there is an eminent need to investigate the current position on the acceptance of these rehabilitation devices to assist patient recovery. Therefore, in this study technology acceptance model is designed to investigate the user acceptance on ankle rehabilitation technology device application in healthcare industry. The purpose of this study is to design a quantitative approach based on the technology acceptance model questionnaire as its primary research methodology. It utilized quantitative approach based on Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to evaluate the system of ankle rehabilitation technology device. The related constructs for evaluation are: Perceived of Usefulness, Perceived Ease of Use, User Satisfaction and Attribute of Usability. All these constructs are modified to suit the context of the study. Moreover, this study outlines the details of each construct and its relevance toward the research issue. The outcome of the study represents series of approaches that will be apply to check the suitability of an ankle rehabilitation technology device on patient in healthcare industry and how well it achieve the aims and objectives of the design.

Development of green technology from the past to the future development: a systematic literature review paper

“…In the same time, using this quantitative analysis data also bring more advantages. Researchers gather information in real-time situations for the quantitative method, meaning that scientific and mathematical analysis can take place nearly instantly (Fitri et al, 2017). Questionnaires, surveys and interviews offer instant results that gained from the data-cantered approach.…”

“…The highest theory that had been utilised in this study is Technology Acceptance Model which is 29% of the study or around ten articles paper are using this theory in their research. On one of the research stated that TAM are the most widely applied compared to all other theories as TAM can figure out on how external influences are related to beliefs, perceptions, attitudes and also behaviours (Abu-dalbouh, 2013) (Fitri et al, 2017). The second theory that usually utilised in green technology acceptance field was Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB), which is around 3 papers or 9 % of the study used this theory.…”
