Consistent with its aim to become a research university, the
International Islamic University Malaysia introduced its online
database system in 2000 as part of its e-library services. Factors
such as perceived benefits, computer self-efficacy and satisfaction
were hypothesized to be major barriers. To test the influence of
these factors on students' adoption of the online database, an
adoption questionnaire based on an extended Technology Acceptance
Model (TAM) was administered. The questionnaire's reliability and
validity were established through a RASCH analysis while the data
were analysed using the Structural Equation Modeling. The results
revealed significant influences of perceived usefulness and
computer self- efficacy on postgraduate students' intention to use
the database and their satisfaction in using it. In addition,
perceived ease of use and intention to use were found to have a
significant direct influence on satisfaction. The findings
contributed to a better understanding of the TAM and technology
adoption and satisfaction among postgraduate students.
