Introduction
Information technology (IT) acceptance and use is an
issue that has received the attention of researchers and
practitioners for over a decade. Successful investment
in technology can lead to enhanced productivity, while
failed systems can lead to undesirable
consequences
such as financial losses and dissatisfaction
among
ememployees.
