Abstract
The objective of the paper is to explore the factors that encourage students to adopt social network sites (SNS) in Malaysia and to use the study’s findings to develop guidelines for SNS providers on how to maximize the rate of adoption. A conceptual model of Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) and intrinsic motivation is proposed and empirically tested in the context of SNS usage. Structural Equation modelling was used on the survey data from 283 university students to test the model fit and corresponding hypotheses. The results show that both TAM and TPB were supported in their predictions of SNS usage intention and perceived enjoyment is a more significant antecedent of attitude as compared to perceived usefulness. Other than communicating with others, the users are looking for fun and enjoyment from using SNS. The relationships between the factors were also presented. Theoretical and managerial implications are discussed at the end of the article. The paper has addressed two limitations that provide opportunities for other researchers to explore them in depth in the future in the similar field of social network sites (SNS). The limitations are presented in the conclusion’s part. For researchers, this paper provides a framework to identify and understand the way the potential key factors contribute to the adoption of SNS. For practitioners, this framework lists the features that specifically attract SNS users. Understanding users’ preferences is of major importance in ebusinesses for making strategic decisions to increase user satisfaction, as well as improving the performance of the business.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
