  • 摘要:Wearable fitness technology (WFT) is a device worn physically on the human wrist to track body activity through the calculation of one's heart rate and calories burned from the number of footsteps walked. Users of WFT utilise the device for the monitoring of body fitness. As WFT devices are popularly owned, the adoptive behaviour needed further understanding. Therefore, the attempt to extend the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology 2 (UTAUT2) with additional determinants retrieved from aesthetics appeal would further examine the use of WFT. A recent study of Malaysian University students found that the general prevalence of university students' obesity is higher than in other Asia countries. This study focuses on investigating Malaysian university students' adoptive behaviour and factors contributing to sustained use of WFT. The use of UTAUT2 with aesthetics appeal perceived the outcome of students' physical health as the significant result in relation to adoptive behaviour and sustained use of WFT. Problem confronting by the country of university students’ obesity must be addressed meticulously. Shaping the future of healthy lifestyle and self-care advocacy is essential through the assistant of technology.
