I have been involved in developing and extending the most widely-used theoretical models and frameworks on individual-level technology acceptance and use, with the collection of the papers being cited being cited several thousand times and being among the most cited papers published in various journals. The two most current models are the technology acceptance model 3 (TAM3) and the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT). Fred Davis and Mike Morris are the key collaborators on this work. The UTAUT paper, coauthored with Mike Morris, Gordon Davis and Fred Davis, published in MIS Quarterly in 2003 is widely cited.
UTAUT distills eight different models
into 4 key predictors of technology adoption and incorporates 4 key
contingencies that moderate the various relationships. Prior to this,
Fred Davis and I published a paper on
TAM
2 in Management Science in 2000 that extended TAM by examining
the role of social influences and the determinants of perceived usefulness.
Also, I published two related papers, building on the original
TAM,
in Information Systems Research in 2000 and Decision Sciences in
1996 that present the determinants of ease of use. The most recent
paper presents
TAM 3, the 3rd version of
the technology acceptance model (TAM) that appeared in Decision Sciences.
These papers are among the most cited
papers ever published in the respective journals: Venaktesh and Davis
(1996) and Venkatesh (2000) on the determinants of ease of use are the 1st
and 2nd
most cited papers published in Decision Sciences and
Information Systems Research respectively; Venkatesh et al. (2003),
the UTAUT paper, is the 2nd most cited paper published in
MIS Quarterly; and Venkatesh and Davis (2000), the TAM 2 paper is
the 5th most cited paper published in Management Science.
Fred Davis' 1989 Management Science and his 1989 MIS Quarterly paper are
the most cited papers published in the respective journals.
In addition to fundamental contributions
to the models, there are other important recently completed and ongoing.
For example, a recent paper that appear in MIS Quarterly aimed at
furthering our understanding of the key dependent variable of technology
use. Another ongoing project challenges the assumptions of linearity in
the various models.
An
overview of the three major published theoretical models is shown
here.
