Abstract: The study has tested the end user computing satisfaction (EUCS) instrument (Doll and Torkzadeh, 1988, 1991) among the students of a university in India which stands culturally apart from other countries. Though the instrument had been tested widely as reported in the previous literature, McHaney et al. (2002) argued for retesting the EUCS instrument in different environments. The present study offers certain suggestions for modification in the instrument to strive for a better goodness of fit and for that purpose makes an attempt for an exploratory factor analysis of the EUCS model. The important factors responsible for the end user satisfaction in the usage of the university website are identified.

Keywords: university websites; end user computing; end user satisfaction; EUCS; confirmatory factor analysis; India; higher education; model goodness of fit.
