“…This raises a question as to which kind of efforts should be made in order to increase the desired level of adoption of these services (Afshan and Sharif, 2016;Alalwan et al, 2016;Alalwan et al, 2017;Dwivedi et al, 2016).Even though the related issues of mobile internet represent worthy trends in the KSA to be considered by researchers, there is a dearth of literature which has focused on mobile internet in the KSA (i.e. Abanumy and Mayhew, 2005;Alhussain et al, 2010;Al-Khalifa, 2011;Alqahtani and Atkins, 2017;Almutairi, 2011;Alnahdi et al, 2017;Alsenaidy and Ahmad, 2012;Alwahaishi and Snášel, 2013a, b;Baabdullah, 2018;Baabdullah et al, 2016;Badwelan et al, 2016;Dwivedi et al, 2017a;Gerpott et al, 2017). This is in addition to the fact that it is important that more quantitative data are available to figure out and test the main factors predicting customer intention and adoption of mobile internet in the KSA.…”

Mobile internet represents a breakthrough technology that has derived much attention from mobile organizations and services providers in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) 1. However, the level of acceptance of mobile internet in the KSA is still below the level of ambition. This is in addition to the fact that there is a considerable need to discover the main factors shaping Saudi customers' intention and adoption of such a mobile system. For this reason, this study is conducted in the hope of providing further understanding about the adoption of mobile internet in the KSA. The extension version of Technology Acceptance Model TAM 2 with perceived enjoyment was adopted as a theoretical foundation of the current study model. This was expanded by considering two additional factors: innovativeness and trust. The main empirical data collected through questionnaires was analysed using structural equation modelling (SEM) 3. Perceived usefulness, perceived enjoyment, trust, and innovativeness are statistically supported to have a significant impact on the Saudi customer intention to adopt mobile internet. Further discussion regarding the main contribution as well as research limitations and future directions are presented at the end of this paper.

Objective In the age of digital health, mankind has resources to write over the historical narrative of queer individuals’ healthcare exclusions. The main purpose of this study was to explore the perspectives of both healthcare providers (HCPs) and queer individuals regarding the use of web-based tools and mobile health applications (mHealth apps) in the context of addressing queer individuals’ sexual and reproductive health services and needs (SRHSN). Methods An overall study was conducted as an exploratory sequential mixed method. This article provides findings from the performed qualitative cycle. The selection method was led by purposeful sampling, which targeted 33 HCPs delivering SRHSN within the defined study settings. Additionally, respondent-driven sampling was employed to select 22 queer individuals. Throughout the study, semi-structured one-on-one face-to-face interviews were used to collect data. Results Four major themes and related sub-themes emerged from HCPs and queer individuals: (a) aid queer individuals with consultations and treatment improvements, (b) drawing parallels with technology in other sectors, (c) enhancing knowledge and education, and (d) positive perception of technological advancements. Conclusions In accordance with our findings, HCPs and queer individuals were all positive and sees mHealth apps as a tool to address SRHSN for homosexual people.
