Factors Influencing E-Service Quality in the Police of Dubai, United Arab Emirates

The Dubai police have adopted several technological measures in the past, including the Smart Government. Despite the effort, there is an existing gap between the expected outcomes of the technology adopted as the index of some major crimes does not reduce after the adoption. This suggests that it i...

The data were analysed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) technique with the aid of SmartPLS 3.0. The results revealed five antecedents that explained 63.1% of the variance in the E-service quality. The result of the moderation effect also shows that awareness of Smart Government lacks a significant moderating effect in the case of both service quality and interface quality. However, the other three effects are moderated by awareness of Smart Government; information quality, system quality and emotional quality.
