The Effect of Individual Innovativeness Level on Attitudes Towards Telemedicine Applications
Öz
This study was conducted to examine individual innovativeness is associated with attitudes and approaches toward telemedicine in the context of advancing healthcare technologies. This study uses a cross-sectional design based on a relational screening model. The study sample consisted of 489 individuals aged 18 and above residing in Türkiye. The data collection tools employed in this study included a personal information form, the Individual Innovativeness Scale, and the Society's Approach and General Attitudes Toward Telemedicine Applications scale. The analysis of the data was conducted using SPSS 25.0 and AMOS programs, with the application of parametric and non-parametric tests depending on the normality of the data. A partial correlation analysis was also performed, with the resultant data controlled for relevant socio-demographic variables. The study indicated that the degree of individual innovativeness exhibited significant variations according to sex and age demographics. A comparison of the results by sex revealed that male participants demonstrated higher levels of individual innovativeness. Furthermore, the 18-24 age group exhibited lower scores than other age groups. Attitudes towards telemedicine applications differed significantly by age group; however, no significant differences were observed with respect to sex, income level, education level, or the presence of chronic diseases. When socio-demographic variables were controlled for, a weak but statistically significant positive correlation was found between the level of individual innovativeness and attitudes towards telemedicine applications. The research results indicate that the level of individual innovativeness is a significant variable in shaping general attitudes towards telemedicine applications.
