Empirical Research Based on TAM in Acceptance of Mobile Homecare Systems

In this paper, the factors of Canadian homecare professionals´ acceptance of mobile homecare systems (MHS) was investigated according to Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Task-technology Fit (TTF). Firstly, a hypothetical model which was derived from the integration of TAM, TTF, Social Norm (SN) and Proficiency (P) was proposed for the homecare professionals´ acceptance of MHS based on literatures about user acceptance of information technology (UAIT).Secondly, a questionnaire was designed for examination of proposed model according to previous related researches. Moreover, the reliability and validity of questionnaire were verified by collected data, and the hypothetical model was tested and coefficients among latent variables were estimated using linear structural equation. At last, discussion and explanation about the result was put forward.
