Abstract

The objective of this work was to integrate the theory of planned behavior (TPB), the technology acceptance model (TAM) to predict the viral attitudes, intentions and behavior of young consumers of Tungurahua. A survey was applied to 385 university students in the province of Tungurahua. The data were subjected to statistical analyzes including Pearson's correlation, structural equation modeling, and linear regression using SPSS statistical software. The test results of the SEM model confirmed the chain of viral attitudes of young consumers towards the intentions of real behavior. The subjective norm, perceived cost, and pleasure were significant predictors of their viral attitudes. Their viral attitudes, perceived usefulness, and subjective norm predicted their intention to convey entertaining electronic messages. Their intention to forward useful e-mails was determined by their viral attitudes, perceived usefulness, and market maneuvering. the aforementioned factors predicted their mobile behavior in the market.
