Abstract
The purpose of this study is to investigate the intention to use the cloud sphygmomanometer in Taiwan. This study also aims at providing suggestions on the popularization of cloud medical services. This study was established in a way that the model constructs in Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) were adapted to the context of cloud sphygmomanometer application in health management. Scale items on the survey include those measuring perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, subjective norm and the user's behavioral intention to use. Feedbacks from a total of 521 users of the Health+ cloud sphygmomanometer were got. Results of this study include: 1. In the social influence part, behavioral intention can be improved with more subjective norm, and perceived usefulness can be improved with more result demonstrability. Additionally, subjective norm can be improved with more image. 2. In the anchor part, perceived ease of use can be improved with more computer self-efficacy and perceptions of external control. 3. In the adjustment part, perceived ease of use can be improved with more perceived enjoyment. The result has stranded most of the hypothesized relationships and the results complement prior research on TAM.
