Building scenarios of digital television adoption: a pilot study

Abstract

This study applies a multidisciplinary approach to build scenarios on both digital television (DTV) adoption and use of T-government services by citizens. Usability and socio-economic aspects were investigated earlier by an Italian pilot study. Dataset derived from this study was later analysed using the UTAUT (Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology) model in order to identify those factors affecting the usage as statistically reliable variables for the next step. In fact, a micro-simulation model on the diffusion of DTV and T-government services was built in order to better understand the user behaviour at various stages in the adoption course of this new digital technology. Microsimulation is also capable of predicting the consequences of certain policies at different levels (i.e. business and governmental). The model shows how some DTV and T-government scenarios on the adoption by the citizens can be influenced by different policy strategies: switch-off date, public communication campaigns, taxes reduction

From digital divide to consumer adoption of smart city solutions: A systematic literature review and bibliometric analysis

“…According to prior research mentioned by [Sánchez-Torres, 2019], the factor influencing e-commerce acceptance is enjoyment. Attractiveness plays a role in adoption of technology [Sapio et al, 2010]. This is in line with the research pertaining to digital natives for whom attractiveness is one of the main characteristics of usability [Vodanovich, Sundaram, Myers, 2010].…”

“…The user-friendliness of SCS usually is an attribute of SCS, which is referred to their quality. B. Sapio with coathours [Sapio et al, 2010] considered perceived ease of use being part of TAM model [Davis, 1989;Song, Parry, Kawakami, 2009] as an important aspect of usability. An intuitive aspect of usability of ubiquitous information systems was outlined by [Vodanovich, Sundaram, Myers, 2010].…”

A Meta-analysis of the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT)

“…Two of the studies have got more than one set of reliabilities because they have been applied to two different set of samples. The remaining nine studies (Alapetite et al 2009;Duyck et al 2010;Hung et al 2007;Jong and Wang 2009;Lin and Anol 2008;Sapio et al 2010;Shin 2009;Tsai 2009; van Biljon and Kotze 2008) did not provide Chronbach's alpha (α) values for any of its constructs. As per Santos (1999), Chronbach's (α) determines the internal uniformity or average correlation of items in a survey mechanism to measure its reliability.…”
