The Roles of Some Antecedents of Broadband User Behavioural Intention among Students in the Rural Areas through PLS-SEM
Summary. This study examined what drives rural students to use broadband internet in northern Malaysia. Researchers surveyed 1,730 secondary school students across 40 villages using the UTAUT behavioral model. Performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and compatibility strongly influenced students' intention to adopt broadband, while social influence had a moderate effect. These factors together predict whether rural users will embrace broadband services.
