Abstract

Abstract By integrating several prominent theories and models in technology adoption, this study develops a research model to examine the factors affecting jobseekers’ intention to use job boards. The validity and reliability of the researcher-developed instrument, the SEDA-IUQ (SEDA-Intention to Use Questionnaire), were assessed using a combination of statistical methods. Utilizing the data collected from 447 Iranian respondents, findings from the exploratory factor analysis provided evidence for the five-factor solution, that is, technological innovation, functional adequacy, content accessibility, practical utility, and reputation-seeking intention, for the 36-item SEDA-IUQ. Various relationships in the research model are tested using confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling. In addition to developing a practical questionnaire that the e-recruitment researchers and practitioners can deploy to study jobseekers’ behavioral intentions, this is the first study on job search websites’ adoption in the Iranian context. The results support existing literature on e-recruitment adoption and extend it by demonstrating the multidimensionality of jobseekers’ perceptions and behavioral intentions toward e-recruitment.

开发一个预测求职板使用意向的模型和问卷:以求职者为导向的伊朗电子招聘采用研究
摘要通过整合技术采用中的几个著名理论和模型,本研究开发了一个研究模型来检验影响求职者使用招聘板意愿的因素。研究人员开发的工具SEDA-IUQ(SEDA意向使用问卷)的有效性和可靠性使用统计方法进行了评估。利用从447名伊朗受访者收集的数据,探索性因素分析的结果为36项SEDA-IUQ的五因素解决方案提供了证据,即技术创新、功能充分性、内容可访问性、实用性和追求声誉的意图。采用验证性因素分析和结构方程模型对研究模型中的各种关系进行了检验。除了开发一份实用的问卷,电子招聘研究人员和从业者可以使用该问卷来研究求职者的行为意向外,这是首次在伊朗背景下对求职网站的采用进行研究。研究结果支持了现有的关于电子招聘的文献,并通过展示求职者对电子招聘的认知和行为意向的多维性来扩展它。
