Developing a General Method to Assess Task-Technology Fit

This research generalizes a method of assessing task- technology fit that was developed for software maintenance tasks and tools. A general instrument is developed for assessing task needs, technology characteristics, and the resulting fit for general problem solving tasks and problem-solving support tool

Extending the task-technology fit model with self-efficacy constructs

MIS researchers have developed a number of models for studying the software utilization choices of end users, including the Task-Technology Fit Model and the Technology Acceptance Model. We are exploring the similarities and differences among these models with a goal of developing combined models with more explanatory power. This paper proposes a model that extends the task-technology fit model with a computer self-efficacy construct. Keywords: Task-technology fit, computer self-efficacy, technology acceptance mode
