“…This means that irrespective of their opinion about the innovation's characteristics, physicians with a predisposed tendency towards innovation are more likely to positively evaluate an innovative service and eventually purchase it (Yi et al, 2005). In other words, highly innovative physicians are expected to value a new service more for its innovativeness rather than its practicality (Kuo, Liu and Ma, 2013). This innovative cohort of physicians usually consists of younger physicians, a notion that is also in accordance with our results on physicians'…”

This paper seeks to explore the factors that influence physicians' purchase intention for supplementary professional services that have been recently introduced to the market. For that reason, a model has been developed and empirically tested using data collected from 100 physicians regarding an innovative e-detailing service. Results show that physicians' purchase intention is significantly influenced by five factors. Three of them derive from the integration of Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) with the Theory of Planned behaviour (TPB), i.e. perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use and professional image. The rest, namely work experience, working status and innovativeness, refer to physicians' professional characteristics. Work experience and innovativeness were found to have a significant effect on physicians' perceptions of the innovative service, whereas, physicians' current working status was not found to have significant influence on either their perceptions of the innovative service or their purchase intention.

“…It is most popular in fields such as commerce (Chen, Gillenson, & Sherrell, 2002;Gefen, Karahanna, & Straub, 2003;Wu & Chen, 2005) or ICTs in organizations (Heijden, 2000;Hsu & Lu, 2004;Yang, Cai, Zhou, & Zhou, 2005), although we can also find examples of its use in the healthcare field (Hung & Jen, 2012;Kuo, Liu, & Ma, 2013) and the educational field (Persico, Manca, & Pozzi, 2014;Stantchev, Colomo-Palacios, Soto-Acosta, & Misra, 2014;Sánchez & Hueros, 2010).…”

a b s t r a c tTraditionally, mobile learning has been more strongly developed within the field of informal education. However, in the past few years there has been a growing interest for the integration of these technologies in the formal education field. Among the key elements needed to successfully achieve this integration process is the acceptance of mobile technologies by the teaching body.In this paper we propose to identify the determining constructs that explain the teachers' intention of using mobile technologies. To this end we have designed a research model based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), expanded with constructs from other theories. The resulting model was subjected to a content validation process performed by a committee of experts.Lastly, we selected nine constructs for the development of the research model and we formulated 13 hypotheses that describe the relationships among them. Further studies on the research model to extend its validity and reliability are suggested.

“…Although the TAM has already been used to evaluate the acceptability of novel informatics tools in other healthcare areas [115][116][117][118][119][120][121][122], to our knowledge, this is one of the first applications for software tools in the area of cognitive or functional assessment. Nevertheless, and similar to our work, the TAM questionnaire has been applied in healthcare settings to investigate the acceptance of different technological systems by specific healthcare professionals (physiotherapist, nurse, and occupational therapist) [118,[123][124][125][126], and some of these settings have demonstrated similar good results for the scores of PEOU and PU as our work [124,126].…”

Highlights:1. Functional assessments are helpful in clinical decision-making.2. No practical, widely available everyday functional assessments currently exist.3. Serious game platforms such as eAdventure can be used to develop screen-based simulated functional assessments.4. The development of the SBS-COT required three professionals who required a total of 49 hours to finish the SBS-COT, which cost approximately US$1,821, taking into account the cost/person-hour. 5. The SBS-COT shows good feasibility as a pre-screening test of executive dysfunction assessment as well as good acceptability and usefulness for therapists and patients. Abstract:The assessment of functional status is a critical component of clinical neuropsychological evaluations used for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in patients with cognitive brain disorders. There are, however, no widely adopted neuropsychological tests that are both ecologically valid and easily administered in daily clinical practice. This discrepancy is a roadblock to the widespread adoption of functional assessments. In this paper, we propose a novel approach using a serious game authoring platform (eAdventure) for creating screenbased simulated functional assessments. We created a naturalistic functional task that consisted of preparing a cup of tea (SBS-COT) and applied the assessment in a convenience sample of eight dyads of therapists/patients with mild executive dysfunction after traumatic brain injury. We had three main aims. First, we performed a comprehensive review of executive function assessment in activities of daily living. Second, we were interested in measuring the feasibility of this technology with respect to staffing, economic and technical requirements. Third, a serious game was administered to patients to study the feasibility of this technology in the clinical context (pre-screening test). In addition, quantitative (Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) questionnaires) and qualitative (semistructured interviews) evaluations were applied to obtain user input. Our results suggest that the staffing, economic and technical requirements of the SBS-COT are feasible. The outcomes of the pre-screening test provide evidence that this technology is useful in the functional assessment of patients with executive dysfunction. In relation to subjective data, the TAM questionnaire showed good user acceptability from a professional perspective. Interview analyses with professionals and patients showed positive experiences related to the use of the SBS-COT. Our work indicates that the use of these types of authoring platforms could have positive long-term implications for neuropsychological research, opening the door to more reproducible, cooperative and efficient research by allowing the facilitated production, reuse and sharing of neuropsychological assessment tools.
