A model of the antecedents of perceived ease of use: development and test

Article Abstract:

The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) was used to analyze how perceived ease of use is related with computer self-efficacy. Three experiments were conducted which revealed that computer self-efficacy is a determinant of perceived ease of use either before or after hands-on use. However, objective usability becomes a determinant of ease of use only after direct use of the system.
