Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to present the findings of an empirical study conducted to determine the factors influencing the intention to use OGD, among the academicians in public universities in Malaysia. Design/methodology/approach: By using purposive sampling, with 389 respondents, the study adapted the UTAUT model as an underpinning theory, and use PLS-SEM as the tool to analyse the data. Findings: The findings highlighted that performance expectancy has positive influence to the intention to use the OGD among academics from 20 public universities in Malaysia. Research limitations/implications: This research feasibly proposes a suitable model in identifying factors of intention to use OGD and this perhaps can provide the best guidelines to the government to implement OGD more extensively. Practical implications: The finding is ideally significant to the academic area especially in research because the intention to use the OGD may lead to the next level of the publishing of data by the data owner among government agencies. Originality/value: Perchance this study could make a noble contribution as it proposes a suitable model which measures technology usage in open government data context, from the perspective of the researchers. The study is confident that eventually with widespread OGD implementation the Malaysian government will achieve its policy of an effective and transparent administration system.
