Factors Impacting Students’ Behavior Intension to Use Electronic Learning on Higher Education in Shanghai, China
Keywords:
Electronic Learning, Performance Expectancy, Effort Expectancy, Social Influence, Habit, Facilitating Conditions, Learning Value, Behavioral IntentionsAbstract
This study evaluates the effects of Performance Expectancy, Effort Expectancy, Social Influence, Hedonic Motivation, Habit, Facilitating Conditions, and Learning Value on Behavioral Intention among students at Shanghai Universities. Employing the Index of Item-Objective Congruence for validity and Cronbach's Alpha for reliability, 100 valid responses were analyzed using multiple linear regression. A subset of 30 students participated in a 14-week Intervention Design Implementation (IDI), with outcomes analyzed using a paired-sample t-test. The findings indicate that all factors affect behavioral intentions, offering critical insights for enhancing e-learning platform design in higher education. This research provides a solid framework for future studies in this field.
