摘要：With the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continuing to be felt globally, it is essential that people quickly adapt to a new virtual business landscape, in order to continue to provide a valuable conference experience. E-conference, in other words web conference or virtual conference, is an online conference that involves people participating in a conference through a virtual environment on the web, rather than meeting in a physical location. The objective of this paper is to inspect several reasons of behavioural intention to use an e-conference system by utilizing the modified technology acceptance model (TAM). Together with primary elements of TAM, in this particular paper, additional constructs such as satisfaction, time, price savings, technical support, mobile anxiety, social influence and convenience are taken into account. Total of 203 questionnaires is gathered through academicians in Turkey. To evaluate the data and examine the proposed hypotheses, the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) methodology is implemented by utilizing SmartPLS 3.2.7. The results indicate that convenience, mobile anxiety, satisfaction, perceived usefulness and social influence are significantly predicting the behavioural intention. This paper enables theoretical and practical implications for authorities seeking to implement an e-conference.
