520 | |a This article aims to propose an extended technology acceptance model-technical-organization- environment (TAM-TOE) framework and to develop its measures for cloud-computing adoption in organizations. Information technology adoption literature based on the TAM model and the TOE framework was reviewed to identify a set of variables relevant to cloud computing adoption. A conceptual framework was developed to integrate the TAM model and the TOE framework. Further, cloud-specific variables (security and third-party control) were also incorporated in the framework. This extended TAM-TOE framework was qualitatively analyzed using an interview method which resulted in 12 of the variables relevant to cloud-computing adoption. Further, a questionnaire was designed, pre-tested and surveyed to develop reliable measures of cloud-computing adoption. It resulted in conceptualizing an extended TAM-TOE framework for cloud-computing adoption and in developing its reliable measures. This study has a smaller sample size and is limited to cloud-computing adoption. On the other hand, it contributes towards the cloud-computing adoption literature. Managers can use measures identified to analyze their... | ||
