The personal related factors are personal innovativeness and task-technology-fitwhereas the social factors are subjective norm and peer acceptance.The organizational factors are training and management support.The relationship of these three perspectives (i.e. personal, social and organizational) in relation with usage of collaborative systems is studied using a model adapted from Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE) model and incorporating it with the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM).Data analysis presents the descriptive statistics of the respondents, the reliability and validity of the instruments used and correlational analysis of the factors.In conclusion, this paper proposes a framework incorporating these factors that are important in influencing usage of collaboration systems for academic research.
