Issue Date: | Mar-2012 | Publisher: | IEEE | Citation: | Lin, Yuan Cuo Julian, Chan, Hock Chuan, Xu, Lingling (2012-03). A Tale of Four Functions and Their Relationships with the Device: Extending Implementation Intention Theory. IEEE Transactions on Professional Communication 55 (1) : 36-54. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1109/TPC.2011.2182570 | Abstract: | This paper proposes a model, which extends the theory of planned behavior and implementation intention theory (1) to capture user evaluation at the functional level; (2) to investigate the distinct role of pleasure for different hedonic levels; (3) and to examine the interrelationships among intentions in a multifunctional device. The model is applied to study intention to use the functions of phone, organizer, camera and MP3 player in smartphones. A survey with more than 200 respondents shows how the antecedents varied among functions. In particular, pleasure shows much stronger effects for high-hedonic functions than low-hedonic functions. However, high-hedonic functions do not contribute to overall intention to use a smartphone. The different effects of individual functions on the overall device suggest important practical implications. The research model can be applied o specific devices to better understand the important functions. | Source Title: | IEEE Transactions on Professional Communication | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/111028 | ISSN: | 03611434 | DOI: | 10.1109/TPC.2011.2182570 |
