A Longitudinal Model of Continued IS Use: An Integrative View of Four Mechanisms Underlying Postadoption Phenomena
Abstract
Although initial use is an important indicator of information system (IS) success, it does not necessarily lead to the desired managerial outcome unless the use continues. However, compared with the great amount of work done on IS adoption, little systematic effort has gone into providing insight into continued IS use over time. The objective of this study is to develop a longitudinal model of how users’ evaluations and behavior evolve as they gain experience with the information technology application. The proposed model is a unified framework that sheds light on four different mechanisms underlying postadoption phenomena: (1) the processes suggested by the technology acceptance model; (2) sequential updating mechanisms; (3) feedback mechanisms; and (4) repeated behavioral patterns. The proposed model was empirically tested in the context of Web-based IS use in a nonexperimental setting. Our findings suggest that, as hypothesized, each of the four theoretical viewpoints is essential for a deeper understanding of continued IS use. We discuss important findings that emerged from this longitudinal study and suggest directions for additional research.

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.
