Abstract
Purpose
The research goal is to understand what factors affect users' continuance intention (CI) of virtual learning commons, focusing on the impact of technological features and individual characteristics on CI.
Design/methodology/approach
In this study, we take “Study with Me”(SWM) as the research subject. Based on the expectation confirmation model for information systems continuance (ECM-ISC) theory, we propose an influence mechanism model for testing these hypotheses. A total of 378 valid data were collected through an online survey of users who frequently use SWM virtual learning commons. The tools SPSS 26.0 and AMOS 24.0 were used to analyze the reliability, validity, model fits and structural equation modeling (SEM).
Findings
The results indicated that interaction immediacy, connectedness, and immersion positively influence users' perceived usefulness (PU) of SWM. The study also concluded that users' self-regulated learning and habit significantly impact their CI of SWM. However, there was no significant relationship found between digital literacy and CI.
Originality/value
This study offers a comprehensive explanation of users' CI of SWM by integrating both technological and individual factors. The findings of this research can provide an empirical foundation for optimizing learning space services, particularly fostering innovative integration between physical and virtual library environments. These findings contribute to promoting diversified development in library space utilization.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Academic Librarianship, an international and refereed journal, publishes articles that focus on problems and issues germane to college and university libraries. JAL provides a forum for authors to present research findings and, where applicable, their practical applications and significance; analyze policies, practices, issues, and trends; speculate about the future of academic librarianship; present analytical bibliographic essays and philosophical treatises. JAL also brings to the attention of its readers information about hundreds of new and recently published books in library and information science, management, scholarly communication, and higher education. JAL, in addition, covers management and discipline-based software and information policy developments.
