This study explores attitudinal and behavioral patterns when using Cyworld by adopting an expanded Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). A model for Cyworld acceptance is used to examine how various factors modified from the TAM influence acceptance and its antecedents. This model is examined through an empirical study involving Cyworld users using structural equation modeling techniques. The model shows reasonably good measurement properties and the constructs are validated. The results not only confirm the model but also reveal general factors applicable to Web2.0. A set of constructs in the model can be the Web2.0-specific factors, playing as enhancing factor to attitudes and intention.
本研究通过采用扩展的技术接受模型(TAM)来探索使用赛我网时的态度和行为模式。一个赛我网接受模型被用来检验从TAM修改而来的各种因素如何影响接受度及其前因。该模型通过一项涉及赛我网用户的实证研究,运用结构方程建模技术进行检验。该模型显示出相当好的测量属性,且各构念得到了验证。研究结果不仅证实了该模型,还揭示了适用于Web2.0的一般因素。模型中的一组构念可以成为Web2.0特定因素,起到增强态度和意图的作用。
