“…Gender Differences in the TAM Gender differences in the TAM were an important issue, which had attracted much attention of researchers in attitudes toward technology (Maican et al, 2019). Male teachers were significantly more interested in technology, more confident in technical skills and more enthusiastic about technology use than females (Anderson et al, 2008).…”

The extended constructs of technology acceptance model (TAM) have rarely been linked to psychological influence factors. This study complements for the missing link in literature through structural equation modeling and a nonparametric Mann–Whitney U test based on the data obtained from a large-scale questionnaire survey. It is concluded that (a) conformity behavior can be integrated into the TAM to establish a fit model in WeChat use in language learning at the significance level .05, (b) self-esteem can be integrated into the TAM to establish a fit model in WeChat use in language learning at the significance level .05, and (c) there are no significant gender differences in the extended constructs in the TAM in WeChat use in language learning at the significance level .05. Future research may extend the constructs further in psychology in order to complement for missing links in current literature. It is also promising to establish a sociocultural TAM with respect to mobile device acceptance in both western and eastern contexts.

“…From this test, we found that the mean value of SSG 3.275 which is greater than 3 and the mean value of DSG 2.84, that is, less than 3. Based on the results of this statistical technique we can say that there will be strong collabo- and teamwork is appreciated as the main factor for organizational success (Maican, Cazan, Lixandroiu, & Dovleac, 2019). Summary of the findings for collaboration among BUs in diversified corporations depicted in Table 9.…”

The Company's CEOs are always obsessed with diversification since the early 1960s and this belief is continuing to date. Diversified corporations run multiple businesses to generate various opportunities to gain competitive advantages and differentiate themselves in the market. This study considered the business strategy of business units (BUs) for diversified corporations. Based on the dominating strategy pursued by BUs, this study tried to investigate the level of collaboration between the BUs when these BUs have a similar strategy or different strategy. Thus, this article aims to examine the level of collaboration or coordination between BUs in Indian diversified companies. A survey was carried out with 107 companies for examination and these companies were chosen to be of different sizes and sectors. The findings represent that the level of collaboration is high when the BUs have a similar kind of business strategy while the level of collaboration is low when they have different kinds of business strategies. These findings are useful for the current organizations to seek collaboration between BUs in the diversified corporation.

“…Gender differences are also important in terms of science and technology acceptance, as there have been significant differences in the attitudes of women and men over time which are of interest to research [57], [60]. In this study, it was not explored whether there was a difference in the acceptance of dance learning by different gender learners on YouTube, so this issue can be explored in subsequent studies.…”

The application of social media in education, including the learning of artistic performance, is becoming increasingly popular. The research on the acceptance of artistic performance through social media is accumulating. Therefore, this study employs an integrated approach based on the technology acceptance model (TAM) to examine dance learners experiencing YouTube by combining design features and factors to explore the acceptance. A survey from the online dance learning fellowship was distributed to recruit YouTube users. Confirmatory factor analysis was adopted to confirm reliability and validity, and a structural equation modeling test by VisualPLS with maximum likelihood estimation was performed to identify the relationships among the constructs. The results suggest that attitudes toward learning dance positively contribute to both perceived usefulness and ease of use of YouTube. Also, both of the factors are important in terms of enhancing YouTube users' attitudes. Furthermore, positive relationships exist between YouTube users' attitudes toward using and intention to use. This study contributes to the extant literature by identifying the decisive impact of the acceptance of YouTube applied to dance learning, and a new perspective extending the TAM by measuring YouTube users' experience of intention to use is provided as a reference for further studies.
