The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of quality and satisfaction of mobile telecommunication service on the quality data sharing for mobile telecommunication service. Based on the theory of reasoned action(TRA), we proposed a research model that (1) service qualities significantly influence the service satisfaction and the attitude towards information sharing, (2) the attitude towards information sharing mediates between service satisfaction and the intention of information sharing, and (3) the intention of information sharing is affected by the service satisfaction and the attitude towards information sharing. Empirical analysis of mobile service users showed that the data quality of mobile communication services had a greater impact on satisfaction than voice quality. The service satisfaction had a positive effect on attitude towards information sharing and the intention of information sharing. Also, the attitude towards information sharing had a positive impact on the intention of information sharing. Based on this empirical study, we proposed a crowdsourcing as an alternative when quality data of mobile telecommunication service should be collected to improve telecommunication policy because by using collective intelligence of the crowdsourcing the government can gather more accurate and diverse data on mobile telecommunication service.

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.

This study is to examine constructs influencing the acceptance of SMEs for VSPs and the efficiency of VSPs, based on the two theories theory of reasoned action (TRA) and technology acceptance model (TAM) in the context of venture support program in Korea. This study concentrates on the government's venture support policy (VSP), namely the examination of the efficiency of current government VSPs in terms of preferential treatment for SMEs experiencing many other venture support programs (the EXP policy), and the reduction of documents/processes related to venture support programs for SMEs so that they are easily accessible and implementable (the EASE policy). Additionally, this paper will suggest an effective way to encourage SMEs to succeed by analyzing the fundamental reasons for their acceptance of VSPs to attain their long-term goals.

Objectives : To analyse the psychosocial factors associated with hypertension management(drug treatment and life style modification) of newly detected cases and to understand and assess their behavioral intention or behaviors. Methods : The survey area was a combined urban and rural area in Chungnam province, Korea, and the sampling method was cluster sampling. Study subjects included 541 newly detected cases of hypertension rated above stage 2 by JNC-VI from a community survey. The first survey was applied to 383 of these patients in order to discern their psychosocial characteristics. A follow-up survey was given to 345 persons with an 11-month interval following monthly telephone counseling concerning medication and life style modification by trained nurses. The final study subjects for analysis comprised 271 persons after excluding cases of incomplete data and change of address. Results : Among the 85(33.2%) new patients who had intended to undergo drug treatment, 30(35.3%) persons were treated with antihypertensive agent after 11 - month interval, while among the patients with no intention to receive treatment, only 36(21.1%) persons were treated. Hypertensive patients with a high intention score revealed a high score in life style modification compliance as well. Seventy three percent of the variance of behavioral intention to undergo hypertension management was explained by the patients attitude toward performing the behavior and subjective norm associated with behaviors related to the theory of reasoned action in structural modeling. Actual behaviors related positively with behavioral intention. The coefficient of determination was 0.255. Conclusion : Improving the compliance level of hypertensive patients in respect to drug treatment or life style modification requires a build up of positive behavioral intention, and caregivers must pay more attention to eventually converting behavioral intention to actual behaviors.

Purpose Virtual communities (VCs) are becoming ever more important in these days, sometimes more than offline communities. Notably, they have become significant sources of knowledge sharing. Therefore, in order to foster a VC, it is very important to understand why people share their knowledge in the VC. Under this background, this paper aims at proposing the behavioral model best explains knowledge sharing activities in VCs. Design/methodology/approach We basically design our behavioral model for knowledge sharing in VCs based on theory of reasoned action (TRA). However, to understand knowledge sharing in VCs better, we specify knowledge sharing by dividing it into knowledge contribution and knowledge use. Also, instead of 'subjective norm', we adopt 'sense of virtual community (SOVC)' as a main social factor, which has been found to be important in the literature. We also include the antecedents such as 'quality of the shared knowledge', 'trust in community members', 'passion of the community leader', 'reciprocity', and 'self efficacy', which affect VC users' attitude towards knowledge sharing and SOVC. To test the hypotheses in our proposed model, we collected 253 valid surveys from the VC users. Structural equation modeling (SEM) using AMOS 23 is employed to assess the relationships proposed as the hypotheses. Findings Major findings are as follows. SOVC positively affects both intention to contribute knowledge and intention to use knowledge. And, trust in community members positively affects the attitude towards knowledge use and SOVC. The attitude towards knowledge use is also affected by the quality of the shared knowledge. Reciprocity is found to strongly positively affect the attitude towards knowledge contribution. However, passion of the community leader and self efficacy are found to have insignificant effect on SOVC and the attitude towards knowledge contribution respectively. Our study sheds a light on how to foster VCs from the perspective of knowledge management.

This study focuses on a comprehensive set of potential determinants of teachers' attitude and efforts for preventing students' piracy of digital contents. The proposed model is based on the theory of reasoned action, developed by Ajzen and Fishbein. The model was tested using responses from 177 teachers. Partial least square method was used to analyze the results. The hypothesized model was largely supported by this analysis, and the overall results indicate that intention for preventing students' piracy of digital contents is mostly influenced by the attitude and the social influence. The perceived level of recognition as well as the punishment for digital contents piracy has also been found to have some direct and indirect impact on the intention. But, on the contrary to our expectation, the teachers' efficacy has no influence on either the attitude or intention. As a conclusion, the academic and practical implications of these findings are discussed.

본 연구는 한국의 간호학생들이 HIV-Disease 대상자를 간호하려는 의도정도와 이를 설명하고 나아가 예견할 수 있는 요인으로 학생들의 인식과 태도를 조사하였다. TRA가 본 연구의 개념틀로 사용되었다. 서울에 소재하고 있는 5개의 4년제 간호대학을 무작위로 추출하였으며 4학년 학생들 186명을 연구의 대상으로 하였다. 한국어로 번역된 Ajzen과 Fishbein(1980)의 도구를 이용한 질문지법을 연구의 방법으로 사용하였다. 다중회귀분석과 상관관계분석이 자료의 분석에 이용되었다. 한국 간호대학 학생들의 HIV-Disease대상자 간호 의도는 중립적인 것으로 조사되었다. 학생들의 의도는 학생들이 가지고 있는 HIV-Disease 대상자 간호에 관한 태도와 또한 HIV-Disease 대상자 간호로 인한 결과에 대한 인식으로 예견되었다. HIV-Disease 대상자를 간호하는 것이 학생들에게 긍정적인 결과를 줄 것이라는 인식은 학생들의 간호의도를 예견하고 있다. 그러나 TRA와는 달리 주위사람들이 자신이 HIV-Disease 대상자를 간호하는데 관한 의견은 학생들의 의도를 예견하지 못하였다. 학생들은 자신의 부모, 형제 또는 애인의 경우 자신이 HIV-Disease 대상자를 간호하지 않기를 바란다고 인식하고 있는 반면, 자신의 학교 교수, 성직자, 그리고 친구들은 HIV-Disease 대상자를 간호하는데 부정적이지는 않다고 인식하고 있다. 특히 같은 간호학을 전공하는 학교 친구들이 보여주는 HIV-Disease 대상자를 간호해야 한다는 인식은 타 학생들의 의도를 예견하는 것으로 조사되었다. 본 연구결과에 의하면 학생들의 HIV-Disease 대상자 간호 의도는 높지 않은 것으로 조사되었으며 특히 학생들의 간호의도에 학교의 교수들이 별 영향을 주고 있지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 이 결과에 의하면 HIV 질환과 HIV-Disease 대상자 간호 교육의 목표는 단순한 지식 의 습득뿐만 아니라 학생들이 보다 긍정적인 태도를 가질 수 있고, 긍정적인 결과를 인식 할 수 있도록 설정되어야 된다고 제 안하고 있다.

The purpose of this study was to find about personal information security of internet and social networks by focusing on end users. User competence and subjective criterion, which are the antecedents, are affecting security behaviors For these security behaviors, the study examined the relationship between security behavior intention on internet use and security behavior intention about social network that is actively achieved in many fields. Behaviors of internet and social network were classified into an action of executing security and an action of using a security technology. In addition, this study investigated a theory about motivational factors of personal intention on a certain behavior based on theory of reasoned action in order to achieve the purpose of this study. A survey was conducted on 224 general individual users through online and offline, and the collected data was analyzed with SPSS 12.0 and SmartPLS 2.0 to verify demographic characteristics of respondents, exploratory factor analysis, and suitability of a study model. Interesting results were shown that security behavior intention of social network is not significant in all security behavior execution, which is security performance behavior, and security technology use. Internet security behavior is significant to security technology use but it does not have an effect on behavior execution.

The purpose of this study is to develop a theoretical model identifying how consumers accept a fashionable technology product. A systematic review of 39 influential TAM studies focusing on theory development in the context of information technology results in three tendencies, which become backbone of the model of fashionable technology acceptance. A subsequent review of the nature of fashion fleshes out the backbone with detailed propositions in the more specific context of fashionable technology. The model of fashionable technology acceptance includes key propositions of Theory of Reasoned Action, in which internal beliefs consist of functional, aesthetic and symbolic values, and other factors, such as technology features (i.e., hardware specification, software specification, brand, and price factors), environmental conditions (i.e., technical infrastructure and user occasion), individual differences (i.e., age, gender, experience, personality, aesthetic sense, fashion innovativeness, and income), and social influence (i.e., subjective norms, social reputation, and cultural difference). Implications, limitations, and suggestions for future research are also discussed.
