Researchers in the area of technology adoption may find Paper No
1., by Li, Troutt, Brandyberry and Wang of particular interest.
This paper provides a new adoption model that can be used at the
organizational level and offers a rich picture of adoption
decisions, with factors influencing adoption at the decision
entity, decision object and decision context level. The results
show different patterns of adoption drivers for continued use
compared with initial adoption.

Decision Factors for the Adoption and Continued Use of Online
Direct Sales Channels among SMEs
