The main purpose of this paper is to develop a theoretical model based on widely used TAM-model to evaluate IT stress as a factor of IT acceptance.
Abstract
Information technology is diversing in healthcare and with it raises the need to diverse the evaluation as well. Individual impacts are often neglected when evaluating IT at work. Healthcare is a stressful sector and besides the traditional stress, exposed to IT related stress due its structure and personnel. In this paper some general needs for re-evaluating of IT evaluation are addressed. Moreover a new perspectiv- IT related stress- is presented to broad the evaluation. The main purpose of this paper is to develop a theoretical model based on widely used TAM-model to evaluate IT stress as a factor of IT acceptance.

The results suggested that TAM was able to provide a reasonable depiction of physicians' intention to use telemedicine technology, and suggested both the limitations of the parsimonious model and the need for incorporating additional factors or integrating with other IT acceptance models in order to improve its specificity and explanatory utility in a health-care context.
