Personal health records: a scoping review

Ease of use and usefulness are believed to be fundamental in determining the acceptance and use of various, corporate ITs. These beliefs, however, may not explain the user’s behavior toward newly emerging ITs, such as the World-Wide-Web (WWW). In this study, we introduce playfulness as a new factor that reflects the user’s intrinsic belief in WWW acceptance. Using it as an intrinsic motivation factor, we extend and empirically validate the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) for the WWW context. # 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Strategies and Best Practices for Data Literacy Education: Knowledge Synthesis Report

This research examines the area of online consumer health information retrieval as a field of study that pertains to consumers' use of the Internet to locate and evaluate health-related information for the purposes of self education and collection of facts to enable informed decision making. A research model exploring the antecedents of consumer satisfaction with online health information retrieval is developed using constructs from the Information Systems and Human Computer Interaction bodies of literature. This model is quantitatively validated using structural equation modeling techniques. The findings of this research provide evidence that content quality, technical adequacy and trust explain a large proportion of the variance in consumer satisfaction with online health information retrieval for consumers. Appearance and specific content on Web sites played a much smaller role in predicting consumer satisfaction with online health information retrieval.

Consumer Satisfaction with Online Health Information Retrieval: A Model and Empirical Study

Healthcare in Canada is facing many problems. The most publicised symptoms are excessive waiting times for patients, lack of access, high cost of delivery and medical errors. e-Health has been introduced as a potential solution for such problems. This research will explore the area of e-health and the technologies as well as the concepts that are included under its large umbrella. Bearing in mind that e-health is more than a set of technological applications, a business process reengineering (BPR) framework will be used to examine the application of particular BPR principles to address specific problems that are plaguing the Canadian healthcare system. The framework identifies the e-health technologies and processes that could best support the effective application of these BPR principles within a healthcare environment, as well as the key barriers impeding their implementation.
