Wearable technology refers to the next generation of the digital revolution that connects items with embedded sensors to the Internet so as to enhance the quality of human life. Wearables have shifted the focus of the healthcare sector toward prevention programs that empower individuals to be active and liable for their own health. Although the number of smart wearable users has grown significantly, there is still a lack of academic researches on what motivates and prevents the continued usage of these devices. Hence, the main objectives of this study are, namely: to explain the impediments and affecting factors in deciding to use smart wellness wearables from a user’s perspective; and to propose a unified model to explore the impact of these factors on an individual’s behavioral intentions. Accordingly, the “Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology 2” and the “Value-based Adoption Model” were integrated with two additional factors, namely perceived trust and perceived health increase. Following this, a survey was conducted among students and 100 reliable responses were received. As a result of this study, the Confirmatory Factor Analysis from the developed instrument is presented. The findings have confirmed the validity and reliability of the developed instrument. This paper also presents the theoretical understanding of the involved factors in the proposed model.

在马来西亚使用智能健康可穿戴设备的行为意图的验证性因素分析

可穿戴技术是下一代数字革命,它将带有嵌入式传感器的物品连接到Internet,以提高人类生活质量。可穿戴设备已将医疗保健部门的重点转向预防计划,以使个人能够对自己的健康充满活力并承担责任。尽管智能可穿戴用户的数量已显着增长,但是仍然缺乏有关动机和阻止继续使用这些设备的学术研究。因此,本研究的主要目标是:从用户的角度解释决定使用智能健康可穿戴设备的障碍和影响因素;并提出一个统一的模型来探讨这些因素对个人行为意图的影响。因此,“接受和使用技术的统一理论2”和“基于价值的采用模型”与另外两个因素整合在一起,即感知信任和感知健康增长。之后,对学生进行了调查,并收到了100份可靠的答复。这项研究的结果是,从开发的仪器中提出了验证性因素分析。这些发现证实了所开发仪器的有效性和可靠性。本文还提出了对所建议模型中涉及因素的理论理解。介绍了已开发仪器的验证性因子分析。这些发现证实了所开发仪器的有效性和可靠性。本文还提出了对模型中涉及因素的理论理解。介绍了已开发仪器的验证性因子分析。这些发现证实了所开发仪器的有效性和可靠性。本文还提出了对模型中涉及因素的理论理解。
