中文摘要

Studies have suggested designs for user-friendly official destination websites. However, most such studies have considered site users tourists and thus have neglected media professionals' demands for an online newsroom to facilitate communication. This study uses the modified Delphi method to reveal two online newsroom functions: new report references and administration information. The technology acceptance model then provides a theoretical basis to examine potential users' assessments of the functions. Through 216 useable samples, the descriptive analysis indicates that the potential users recognize the functions' necessity, usefulness, and ease of use. Partial-least-squares structural equation modeling also verifies the relationships between variables based on the technology acceptance model. The results highlight the importance of online newsroom functions for real-time interaction and official approbation. Accordingly, this paper fills the research gap and offers a practical reference for establishing an official website online newsroom.
英文摘要

已有文獻指出觀光目的地官方網站所需具備之元素。本研究進一步透過德爾菲法，定義出目的地官網線上新聞室的兩大類功能：新聞報導資訊以及一般行政資訊，並發現媒體工作者對資訊的即時互動和官方核定有高度重視。此外，本研究調查潛在使用者如何評估這些功能。透過216份有效樣本，描述性統計結果指出，樣本能認同這些功能的必要性、有用性、易用性。與此同時，偏最小平方結構方程式模型分析分析顯示，必要性對有用性和易用性有正向影響，符合科技接受模式理論。據此，本研究填補既有文獻多考慮網站使用者為遊客，卻忽略媒體工作者需求的研究缺口。同時，本研究爬梳出的兩大類共八種線上新聞室功能，能轉化為目的地官網線上新聞室建置的實務參考。
