Abstract

This research investigates university students' intentions and behaviors regarding the adoption of mobile learning tools in higher education, with a focus on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT-2) model. A sample of 541 university students from a state university in the Southeastern Anatolia Region of Turkey participated in this study. Structural equation modeling was employed to assess students' mobile learning adoption levels, and statistical analyses were conducted accordingly. The findings indicate a moderate level of mobile learning adoption among the students. The study reveals that students employ various strategies while using mobile tools for learning. Notably, among digital natives, intention to use mobile devices is significantly influenced by habit, hedonic motivation and effort expectancy. Additionally, the study identifies a significant relationship between the use behavior variable and facilitating conditions. The research also examines regulatory effects within the model, demonstrating that age moderates the relationship between habit and use behavior. Furthermore, gender has a moderating effect on the relationship between facilitating conditions and behavioral intention, as well as between hedonic motivation and behavioral intention. Finally, experience moderates the relationship between habit and use behavior, as well as between behavioral intention and use behavior.
从UTAUT-2模型看数字原住民的移动学习采用情况:结构方程模型
本研究以技术接受与使用统一理论(UTAUT-2)模型为基础,调查了大学生在高等教育中采用移动学习工具的意向和行为。来自土耳其东南安纳托利亚地区一所国立大学的 541 名大学生参与了本研究。研究采用了结构方程模型来评估学生的移动学习采用水平,并进行了相应的统计分析。研究结果表明,学生采用移动学习的程度适中。研究显示,学生在使用移动工具学习时采用了各种策略。值得注意的是,在数字原住民中,使用移动设备的意向受到习惯、享乐动机和努力预期的显著影响。此外,研究还确定了使用行为变量与便利条件之间的重要关系。研究还考察了模型中的调节效应,结果表明年龄调节了习惯与使用行为之间的关系。此外,性别对促进条件与行为意向之间的关系以及享乐动机与行为意向之间的关系也有调节作用。最后,经验对习惯与使用行为之间的关系以及行为意向与使用行为之间的关系具有调节作用。
