Construct: Groupware Use


  • Description
  • Indicators

Note 1: Following are presented the definitions found for the construct in the used references, together with the theory/model.
Note 2: The same construct can be present in more than one theory/model.
Note 3: If the construct was not proposed in the original theory/model, it is identified as "Additional to theory/model".


Definition: Refers to individuals’ perceived use of groupware to perform their tasks.

Theory/model: Additional to TTF
Reference: (Yang, Kang, Oh, & Kim, 2013)


Note 1: This list contains all the indicators (measuring variables) as defined by the authors when proposing/using/applying a theory/model in a context. It also includes the scales used to measure the variables.
Note 2: Some of the indicators are context-dependent.
Note 3: The same construct can be present in more than one theory/model.
