Abstract: Motivated by the growing interest in e-government, our research aims to discover the quality priorities of e-government users and analyses the attitude of Greek citizens towards e-government sites in Greece. We propose a research model which posits four dimensions influential to e-government site quality – efficiency, trust, reliability, citizen support. Data was collected and analysed to gather information concerning the way Greek users interact with e-government. We found that all four dimensions significantly influence citizens| evaluation and intention to reuse. E-government users perceived different importance of quality factors in using different types of e-government sites.
Keywords: e-government; public service; service quality; quality model; measurement; instruments; website quality; electronic government; Greece; efficiency; trust; reliability; citizen support.
