Title Factors Affecting the Use Intention of Container Carriers’ Electronic Commerce - From a Shipper’s Perspective
Author Chin-Shan Lu, Li-Yi Chen
Summary   In this study we used a structural equation modeling (SEM) to examine the impacts of legal factor, technical factor, safety factor, cost factor and service factor on shippers’ use intention with container carriers’ electronic commerce services. Results indicated that technical factor was negatively related to shippers’ enquiry use intention and transaction use intention, whereas service factor positively influenced shippers’ enquiry use intention and transaction use intention. In addition, cost factor was positively related to shippers’ transaction use intention. However, the impacts of safety factor and legal factor on shippers’ transaction use intention were not supported, neither did cost factor significantly influence shippers’ enquiry use intention.
