Systemutvecklingsteams acceptans av utvecklingsprinciper : Kritiska faktorer vid införande av nya tekniker ocharbetsmetoder utifrån Technology Acceptance Model 3

Sammanfattning: New technology is a key to be able to evolve and be in thecutting edge in system development. System developmentteams within an organization, and the individuals within theteam, must adopt and accept new technology in a fast pace.Even though teamwork is a crucial part in the daily life of asystem developer, there is a lack of studies who has taken acloser look at teams in system development and theacceptance of new technology and working methods. Theauthors therefore saw the need to investigate the correlationbetween a system development team and the acceptance ofnew technology and working methods. The study hasexamined a government-controlled organization and theirwork with introducing development principles to the systemdevelopment teams. The aim of this study is “FromTechnology Acceptance Model 3 point of view identify criticalfactors who affects the acceptance of development principles for asystem development team.” To fulfill the aim a researchquestion has been constructed “What critical factors lie behindthe team´s acceptance of the development principles?”. Theresearch question has been answered on the basis of thequalitative research approach and semi-structuredinterviews. Where the analysis takes support of TAM3 toidentify the critical factors in TAM3. The analysis resulted infive critical factors which was considered to affect theacceptance of the development principles within a systemdevelopment team. The five identified factors wereExperience, Voluntariness, Output Quality, Job Relevance andResult Demonstrability. From the identified factors, Experiencewas considered as a factor who needs further studies wherefuture research can investigate different kinds of experienceand what role the different kinds of experience might havefor each individual factor that Experience influence
