Abstract

Researchers are highly interested in research data management to derive excellent research results. This study analyzes the determinants affecting the acceptance of blockchain based electronic lab notebooks service as research data management service. A research model was established based on the technology acceptance model. The sample is collected by 585 researchers from universities and research institutes in Korea. The main research results showed that the usefulness and ease of use lowered the perceived risk and increased the intention to use. Social norms also decreased perceived risk factors and increased intention to use. Research implications are that managers should seek ways to lower the technical risks of blockchain when developing blockchain-based services. In addition, they have to allow users to easily use block chain-based services and recommend them to other users around them.
