3. Can the TPB
constructs be used
to predict the
intension to adopt
e-commerce
among chilean
SMSEs ?
Research
question
The lack of research in
this domain
The need of theories
with respect to e-
commerce adoption
The need to develop a
quantitative approach
to e-commerce
adoption
Justification
Research Question Problem Statments Hypotheses Theorical Models Discus/ConclusionMethodology Results
4. Do the direct measures of the TPB constructs significantly predict
intension to adopt e-commerce by SMEs in Chile ?
Do the TPB indicators relate significantly to its’ corresponding direct
measures ?
Do the indirect measures of TPB construct significantly predict
intension to e-commerce adoption ?

5. H1.
• Direct measures of the TPB construct significantly predict
intensions to adopt e-commerce by SMEs in Chile
H1a-b.
• Each TBP construct has a significant and positive linear
relationship with the intention to adopt e-commerce
H2.
• The TPB’s indicators relate significantly to thier
corresponding direct measures
H3.
• The indirect measures of TPB constructs significantly
predict intension to e-commerce adoption

Theory of
Planned Behavior

that predicts and
explains a variety of
behaviors

Intenstion is
determine by the
individual’s attitude,
and subjective
norms, the
perceived social
pressure to perform

7. Method of analysis
• Regression analysis (H1. H 3.)
• Correlation analysis (H2)
Data collection tools
• Written survey to a sample of 130 small firms (10-200 employees)
• Internet survey (respondents: 28 managers)
• Questionnaires given out to 1100 small businesses with a 20.27%
response rate
Populations of interest
• Managers and Owners of SMEs in Chile

8. • Direct and indirect measures of TPB constructs
could significantly predict the intention to
adopt e-commerce (H1, H3)
• H1 a-b are strongly supported while (c) is not
supported
• Direct and indirect measures of TPB constructs
are sgnificantly correlated (H2)

9. Indirect, belief-based
measures of the TPB
Limitation & future research Contribution of the study
• Attitude doesn’t significantly
predict intention
• Difficulties to accomplished
longitudinal study on
behaviour
• It enhances our
undertansding of specific
believes that influences
managers decision
• Low correlationsship
between direct and indirect
measures
• Regression analyses do not
control measurement error
• This work acts as a stimulus
to other countries
It creates awareness among
managers
• It might demonstrate the
difficulty to operationalize this
construct in developing
countries
• Bridges the gap in IT
researchs among SMEs
H1c not validated because of
cultural differences
H1b shows a stronger predictive
power
