Understanding the Adoption of Web Development Frameworks – The Determinants of Continuance Intention
Abstract
The paper provides findings of a study that investigated determinants of the continuance intention of web development frameworks. The specific objectives were to identify factors that could influence continuance intention and test the effect of these factors in determining continuance intention. Hundred and fifty software development professionals in software engineering and design engineering job positions from 16 firms, which involved in web development as a key business activity, responded to the survey questionnaire. Six factors that significantly predict the continuance intention were identified, i.e., technical support experienced by users, management support experienced by users, personal advantage perceived by users, users’ level of risk response, users’ level of technology awareness, and users’ level of optimism towards technology. The paper concludes with the discussion of implications of the findings for theory and practice.
