Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the moderating effect of health privacy information on the relationship between the factors that affect the behavioral intention of the usage of u-health system have. Therefore, as a research hypothesis in TRA (Theory of Reasoned Action), self-efficacy and perceived usefulness will have a positive effect on the behavioral intention of the u-health system, and in the path, that personal information factors have an effect on each path. This study used the PLS-SEM methodology to verify the proposed research model. As a result of the analysis, this study showed that the moderating effect of health personal information in the presented model affects to some extent by the increase of R2 explanatory power. However, it was found that it was more consistent with the role of the independent variable rather than the moderating influence on the perceived usefulness.

본 연구의 목적은 유헬스 시스템의 사용(usage)이라는 행위 의도(behavioral intention)에 미치는 영향 요인들 간의 관계에서 건강개인정보(health privacy information)의 조절적 효과(moderating effect)를 분석하는데 있다. 합리적 행동이론에 근거한 모형 내 연구가설로서 자기효능(self-effiacy) 및 인지된 유용성(perceived usefulness)은 유헬스 시스템의 행위 의도(behavioral intention)에 긍정적인 (positive) 영향을 미칠 것이며, 그 경로(path)에서 사용자의 건강개인정보 요인이 각 경로에서 어떤 영향을 미칠 것으로 제시하였다. 본 연구는 그 제시된 연구모형을 검증하기 위해서 PLS-SEM 방법론을 활용하였다. 분석 결과, 제시된 모형 내에서 건강개인정보의 조절적 효과가 R2 설명력의 증가치에 의해 어느 정도의 영향을 미친다고 볼 수 있지만, 조절변수로의 역할보다는 인지적 유용성(perceived usefulness)에 영향을 미치는 독립변수의 역할에 부합됨을 알 수 있었다.
