摘要

This paper reports the findings of a study on factors that influence college students' acceptance of mobile devices for Mobile Assisted Language Learning (MALL) in China. An integrated model, namely Mobile Device Technology Acceptance Model (MDTAM) for foreign language learning in Chinese higher education, was proposed based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). Two new factors, Perceived Ubiquity and Social Influences, were added to the proposed model. The model hypothesized five influencing factors, which formed nine hypotheses, i.e. nine paths from influencing factors to Behavioral Intention directly or indirectly. The MDTAM was verified using data collected from a questionnaire survey with 253 valid sample respondents in a southern university in China. Structural equation model was adopted for data analysis including measurement model assessment and structural model assessment. Six hypothesized paths were proved. Three factors, namely Attitude, Perceived Usefulness and Perceived Ubiquity, significantly and directly influenced students' intention toward the acceptance of mobile devices in language learning, which accounted for 51.1% of the variance explained in students' Behavioral Intention. Additionally, the study results showed that among the two new factors, Perceived Ubiquity was of significant effect on Behavioral Intention. However, the other factor Social Influences has not been proved of significant impact either on Behavioral Intention or Perceived Usefulness. These findings may have reflected the unique English learning context in China. Hence, future research opportunities were proposed at the end of this paper.
