Abstract

Background Rain Classroom was one of the most popular online learning platforms in Chinese higher education during the pandemic. However, there is little research on user intention under the guidance of technology accept‑ ance and unifed theory (UTAUT). Objective This research aims to determine factors infuencing students’ behavioural intention to use Rain Classroom. Methods In this cross-sectional and correlational investigation, 1138 medical students from fve medical universi‑ ties in Guangxi Province, China, made up the sample. This study added self-efcacy (SE), motivation (MO), stress (ST), and anxiety (AN) to the UTAUT framework. This study modifed the framework by excluding actual usage variables and focusing only on intention determinants. SPSS-26 and AMOS-26 were used to analyze the data. The structural equation modelling technique was chosen to confrm the hypotheses. Results Except for facilitating conditions (FC), all proposed factors, including performance expectancy (PE), efort expectancy (EE), social infuence (SI), self-efcacy (SE), motivation (MO), anxiety (AN), and stress (ST), had a signifcant efect on students’ behavioural intentions to use Rain Classroom. Conclusions The research revealed that the proposed model, which was based on the UTAUT, is excellent at identify‑ ing the variables that infuence students’ behavioural intentions in the Rain Classroom. Higher education institutions can plan and implement productive classrooms
