Actual Use Davis, 1989, 1993; Davis et K. and Hassan, A., 2003; Al-Sukkar, A., Hassan, H., 2005. studies have found a direct link between the two beliefs of ease of use and usefulness and behavioural intention to use and/or usage (Kiel, et al., 1995; Adames, et al., 1992; Davis, 1989). Subsequent studies tested a mediating role of attitude between the relationship of beliefs to behavioural intention (Davis, et al., 1989) and a relationship between attitude and behavioural intentions (Szajna, 1994). The TAM used in this study includes the mediating construct of attitude.
