摘要

医疗旅游移动应用程序的成功运营主要取决于用户在多大程度上完全有动力采用它们的使用。因此，本研究的主要目的是探讨医疗旅游移动应用程序使用意向的影响因素。本研究运用技术接受与使用统一理论(UTAUT2)，构建了用户医疗旅游移动应用使用意向的综合模型。我们的研究结果证实了UTAUT2在解释医疗旅游移动服务背景下用户使用医疗旅游移动应用的意图方面的有效性。此外，结果侧重于他者角色的增强，而不是IT/IS环境的上下文属性(即个人参与和个人创新)。本研究可以证实UTAUT2结构在医疗旅游移动应用使用设置中的重要性。通过调查，医疗旅游移动应用程序设计师可以知道，个人参与和个人创新导致影响企业营销工作的有效性与使用移动医疗应用程序。

The Role of Individual Factors in Users’ Intentions to Use Medical Tourism Mobile Apps

The successful operation of medical tourism mobile applications primarily depends on the extent to which users are fully motivated to adopt their use. Therefore, the primary purpose of this study was to investigate the factors influencing medical tourism mobile application usage intentions. This study applied the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT2) to build a comprehensive model that explains users’ intentions to use medical tourism mobile apps. Our research findings confirm the validity of the UTAUT2 in explaining users’ intentions to use medical tourism mobile apps in the context of medical tourism mobile services. Additionally, the results focus on the enhancement in the role of the other rather that contextual attributes of the IT/IS environment (i.e., personal involvement and personal innovativeness). This study can confirm the importance of the UTAUT2 constructs in the setting of medical tourism mobile app usage. By conducting surveys, medical tourism mobile app designers can know that personal involvement and personal innovativeness lead to influences on the effectiveness of corporate marketing efforts relating to using mobile medical apps.
