A Multivariate Analysis of Web Usage
Abstract
Applying the uses and gratification theory to improve the understanding of Web usage, the authors explore Web users' motivations and concerns. These motivations and concerns, as well as demographic factors, were studied in three usage contexts: (1) the number of hours per day spent on the Web, (2) the percentage of time spent for business versus personal purposes, and (3) the purchases made from a Web business and, if purchases were made, the approximate number of times purchasers placed orders on the Web. Multivariate factor analysis suggests the presence of seven motivations and concerns regarding Web use. Additionally, the results suggest that these seven factors, along with age, income, gender, and education levels, are significantly correlated with the three usage contexts.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
