The model is based on the relationship between six factors that can influence citizens' adoption preferences of m-government services, namely Social Influence (SI), Perceived Compatibility (PC), Perceived Ease of Use (PEOU), Perceived Usefulness (PU), Trust in Technology (TT), and Perceived Risk (PR) with the Behavioural Intention to Adoption (BIA) and the National Culture (NC) as a mediator.

Moreover, the study found that the NC has positive but not significant effect on BIA, highlighting the positive impact of the NC on citizens' adoption of m-government services.
