dc.description.abstractHealth informatics research has expanded and recently focuses on information systems design and implementation. However, there is still very limited study on how end users react to already implemented system in this domain. Therefore, there is a strong need to develop and gain empirical support for models of technology acceptance which in turn help in improving the information system acceptance and its usage. Therefore, this research is carried out as an effort to examine the factors associated with the proposed TAM-IDT-TRUST acceptance model and its relationship in determining users‘ behavioural intentions to use Breast Self-Examination (BSE) Teleconsultation system. BSE is a self examination on the breast carried out by women at monthly basis to determine any abnormalities on their own breast. This research applied mixed method approach where the study begins with qualitative method (interview) and ends with quantitative method (survey). Using the qualitative method, the factors that contribute to the non-participatory of monthly BSE practice have been determined; the initial acceptance of a group of public users has been investigated; and the system contents suggested by users have been identified. Moreover, in the system development, a Modified User-Created Content (MUCC) approach is proposed and applied. Using the quantitative method, the proposed TAM-IDT-TRUST model is formulated, tested and validated statistically using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). In general it was found that the factors (trust together with perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use and compatibility) associated with TAM-IDT-TRUST are important antecedents of intentions. This implies that these important factors are critical in the deployment of BSE Teleconsultation system in the future. The TAM-IDT-TRUST model has the capability to explain the variance of Trust (55.7%), of Perceived Usefulness (76.9%), of Attitude (86.6%), and of Behavioural Intention (78.5%).en_US
