“…The model explained 52.3% of the variance of usage intention. In contrast to Herrenkind et al [35], perceived usefulness was the strongest predictor of usage intention, followed by attitude and perceived enjoyment. Trust was not found to affect intention significantly.…”

“…The statements that were used to rate these factors of acceptance towards future use were based on a previous pilot study, with a conceptual model built on UTAUT [22]. As discussed previously, several studies have included constructs adjusted from general technology acceptance theory to capture the intention to use autonomous shuttles and its predictors [19,21,22,34,35]. Although the constructs of the models were not operationalised in the same way, the careful comparison of the mean values of the constructs measured at other European test sites and the items for the Brussels sites confirmed that autonomous shuttles are perceived as enjoyable modes of transport that are easy to use.…”

“…Additionally, the lower predictive power of the model for the Woluwe site indicates that a significant contributor is still missing for successfully predicting the intention to use autonomous shuttles for a diverse population. Based on results from previous research, trust in autonomous technology and the perceived safety of autonomous shuttles have been found to be significant factors [27,35].…”

Current technological developments allow the testing of shared autonomous electric vehicles in real-life conditions. Consequently, we can evaluate how users react and if these developments might lead to more sustainable transport behaviour in the future. The purpose of this study was to capture public opinion regarding autonomous vehicles in terms of user experience and intended future use. Autonomous shuttles were operated in the Brussels Capital Region in a mixed traffic situation, allowing interaction with other road users. We compared the results of two pilots with different target groups in the same city. Public opinion was captured through an online survey after passengers had experienced a ride. Our results showed that more than 70% of the passengers expressed no concerns with regards to autonomous vehicles. The majority had a positive experience with the shuttle and evaluated the shuttle positively in terms of driving behaviour, entry and exit and comfort. The regression analysis indicated that enjoyment of the ride is an important factor that contributes to the intention to use autonomous shuttles in the future.

The ubiquity of the World Wide Web has provided massive opportunities to teachers and learners around the globe to share knowledge anytime anywhere via learning management system. Hence, considering the needs of the students; universities have arranged the facilities of the learning management system. This study is an empirical evaluation of university faculty members' intention to use a learning management system. We extended Davis's (1989) Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to evaluate faculty members' intention to use learning management system amid COVID‐19. Data were obtained from the faculty members of Pakistani universities through the convenience sampling technique and analyzed using PLS‐SEM. The outcomes of the study revealed that perceived ease of using a learning management system, user‐interface design, and faculty members' innovativeness have a favorable impact on their intention to use learning management system. Facilitating conditions positively influenced intention to use learning management system. However, the positive relationship between facilitating conditions and perceived ease of using the learning management system was insignificant. The results indicate that the extended TAM model has effectively predicted faculty members' intention to use the learning management system. The findings of the current study can be used for the training and development of faculty members by institutions and regulatory bodies in developing countries.

For sustainable development in the transportation sector: Determinants of acceptance of sustainable transportation using the innovation diffusion theory and technology acceptance model

With global interest in environmental concerns, the importance of sustainable development has consistently increased. With this trend, the concept of sustainable transportation is an urgent issue in both developed and developing countries. Thus, the current study examines user adoption of sustainable transportation and proposes an integrated model of two theoretical frameworks: the innovation diffusion theory and technology acceptance model. The structural results with 250 respondents in Korea find a sequential connection for users' intention to use, while two main determinants of intentionperceived usefulness and attitude-as well as the roles of their environmental knowledge and perceived compatibility, are also highlighted. Based on these findings, both practical and theoretical implications were presented.
