“…Survey results also confirm this, indicating that 54% of respondents from Keko, compared to 38% in Manzese and 36% in Kipawa, attended at least one sanitation information meeting per year. These results show that the residents in Keko have had more opportunities to increase their knowledge about FS-RRR through local training sessions and demonstrations, which we already know are critical components to influence individual decisions toward acceptance of any new innovation (Rosly & Khalid 2018;Russel et al 2019).…”

“…To build knowledge and change attitudes about the FS-RRR concept, more awareness-raising campaigns, community training and demonstrations of FS-RRR technologies and FS-derived products must be conducted: because 'seeing is believing', and dispelling myths linked to human waste cannot be done without people seeing, touching and smelling the products with their own senses (Rosly & Khalid 2018;Russel et al 2019). Targeting the right people to participate in these community events is the next step.…”

“…Even though it has already been established that successful technology adoption is highly dependent on peoples' acceptance of that innovation (Davis 1985). More specifically, peoples' decision to adopt a new innovation is influenced by the degree of knowledge and positive attitudes they have about that innovation (Meena et al 2012), as well as the opportunities given to the prospective users to experiment or test it out (Rosly & Khalid 2018). The purpose of this article is to close this research gap by exploring residents' views on FS-RRR, drawing on the knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) framework (Muleme et al 2017).…”

Resource recovery and reuse (RRR) of fecal sludge (FS) from onsite sanitation systems describes the concept of turning human waste into valuable end products. However, studies on peoples' perceptions of FS-derived products are still limited. Guided by the knowledge, attitudes and practices framework, and data from a survey of 395 households, focus group discussions and key informant interviews, this article explores how residents in three unplanned settlements of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania view FS RRR (FS-RRR). Results indicate that residents' knowledge about FS-RRR is moderately low. Moreover, residents generally have negative attitudes toward using FS-derived products, except for those not directly consumed, such as biogas or FS-briquettes. Additionally, only a few residents have engaged in any FS-RRR practices. We conclude that to increase local acceptance of FS-RRR will require significant efforts by a multitude of actors, not least to dispel myths linked to human waste, but also to raise awareness and demonstrate the benefits and safety of FS-derived products. The Tanzanian government must take the lead in this process and should start by prioritizing the improvement of FSM to enable such a shift.

Background Factors affecting the adoption and use of eHealth applications have been extensively researched from different perspectives in different regions. However, with the changing circumstances (e.g. the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic), new influencing factors might evolve and can influence the attitudes of consumers towards using eHealth applications. The purpose of this study was to identify and evaluate the evolving factors affecting consumer attitudes towards the use of eHealth applications and provide implications for the future of Neom. Methods An online survey questionnaire was used to collect data from 976 eHealth consumers in Saudi Arabia, which included 527 male and 449 female participants. Findings were analysed using the statistical means and standard deviations for each item in the questionnaire to analyse the role of each factor in depth. Statistical t-tests were used to identify significant differences between the groups categorised by age and gender. Results ‘Necessity but not interest’ (mean 4.5 [standard deviation {SD} 1.12]) and fear (mean 4.5 [SD 1.13]) and psychological factors including depression (mean 4.4 [SD 1.54]), stress (mean 4.2 [SD 1.09]) and anxiety (mean 4.3 [SD 1.61]) were identified to be major evolving influencing factors, while other factors including performance expectancy, ease of use, enjoyment and incentives were identified to be comparatively less influential. Conclusions Increasing adoption of eHealth mainly due to necessity but not out of interest can have serious implications for patients and the adoption of eHealth technologies in the future.

Information and Communication Technology (ICT) growth triggers various educational institutions, especially universities, to use technology in their learning. The learning model with ICT is known as e-learning which is designed using a Learning Management System (LMS). Ahmad Dahlan University (UAD) has been using e-learning since 2009. Currently, an e-learning system is very much needed in the online learning process. The UAD e-learning development team developed a new e-learning system to overcome distance education during the pandemic. This study was carried out to measure TAM in the use of UAD's new e-learning. The factors used are based on previous research using two primary factors from TAM, namely perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use by adding other aspects (1) instructor characteristic, (2) habit, (3) computer self-efficacy, and (4) system quality. The number of samples was determined using the slovin method with the results of 86 people, and the technique of deciding respondents was using purposive sampling. The data processing method in this study was carried out using the SPSS 20 application. The analysis results showed that habit, computer self-efficacy, system quality, and perceived ease of use significantly correlated with perceived usefulness. In contrast, instructor characteristics had no significant relationship with perceived usefulness. The immense contribution of the influence of instructor characteristic and habit factors on perceived usefulness simultaneously is 45.8%, for computer self-efficacy and system quality factors on perceived ease of use are 41.3% and for perceived ease of use factors on perceived usefulness is other variables influence 33, 2% and the rest.
