Description
Summary:<p>This study aimed to determine the levels of perceived acceptance and intention to use</p><p>exergames as a teaching aid among pre-service physical education teachers. This study</p><p>was based on a quantitative approach involving an online survey method. The</p><p>conceptual framework of this study was based on the Technology Acceptance Model</p><p>(TAM) involving perceived compatibility as an additional variable. The study sample</p><p>consisted of 103 Physical Education students, comprising 53 males and 50 females, of</p><p>Sultan Idris Education University, who were selected through purposive sampling.</p><p>Ordinal Logistic Regression, Spearman Rank Correlation, and Chi Square Goodnessof-</p><p>Fit were used to analyse the data using SPSS version 23.0. The findings of the</p><p>analysis showed there were significant relationships between intention to use and the</p><p>independent variables, namely perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and</p><p>perceived compatibility. In conclusion, the intention to use exergames among the</p><p>respondents had significant correlations with perceived usefulness, perceived ease of</p><p>use, and perceived compatibility of the application. As such, these findings have an</p><p>implication in that pre-service physical education teachers who perceive exergames as</p><p>a useful, easy to use, and compatible teaching aid will have a strong intention to use it</p><p>in their teaching practices.</p>
