International Journal of Public Sector Performance Management (IJPSPM), Vol. 14, No. 2, 2024

Abstract: Many studies investigate the intention to use e-Gov, but few examine its satisfaction among citizens and how it is adopted in the Arabian Gulf. Especially, they do not examine the impact of social and cultural factors such as pulling strings. According to several studies, the output from the diverse field of information systems can achieve better results. This study extends the work on e-Gov by using the different applications of the theory of planned behaviour and SERVQUAL to identify the most effective constructs for behavioural intention and satisfaction. This study proposes its own model to measure the effect of both satisfaction and behavioural intention to use e-Gov as dependent variables. Mainly, we test the factor of service quality and the two social factors of subjective norm and wasta to understand which carries the most influential effect on behavioural intention and satisfaction.
