TL;DR: The results suggested that TAM was able to provide a reasonable depiction of physicians' intention to use telemedicine technology, and suggested both the limitations of the parsimonious model and the need for incorporating additional factors or integrating with other IT acceptance models in order to improve its specificity and explanatory utility in a health-care context.

TL;DR: Results of the study highlight several plausible limitations of TAM and TPB in explaining or predicting technology acceptance by individual professionals and suggest that instruments that have been developed and repeatedly tested in previous studies involving end users and business managers in ordinary business settings may not be equally valid in a professional setting.

TL;DR: Findings suggest that TAM may be more appropriate than TPB for examining technology acceptance by individual professionals and that the integrated model, although more fully depicting physicians’ technology acceptance, may not provide significant additional explanatory power.

TL;DR: Examination of physicians' decisions to accept telemedicine technology suggests several areas where individual "professionals" might subtly differ in their technology acceptance decision-making, as compared with end users and business managers in ordinary business settings.

TL;DR: The results support the expanded model that provides a rich understanding of the changes in the pre‐usage beliefs and attitudes through the emergent constructs of disconfirmation and satisfaction, ultimately influencing IS continuance intention.
