  • Abstract
    Based on Davis´ Technology Acceptance Model, the research proposed a new model includes variables such as social-economic class, gender role, gender equality, and self-image. The results indicate that there were significant differences (p = 004) exist in gender role based on different college year of female students. The younger female students tend to have less traditional gender role stereotype than elder female students. However, no significant differences exist in gender role, gender equality, and self-image based on female student parents´ social-economic status.
