By reviewing previous e-learning studies, this dissertation located four dominant predictors of e-learning system satisfaction and various contingent variables based on contingency theory. This dissertation investigated the impact of these contingent variables on the relationship between four predictors and students’ satisfaction with e-learning. Five hundred and twenty-two university students from ten intact classes engaging in online instruction were asked to answer questionnaires about their learning styles, perceptions of the quality of the proposed predictors, and satisfaction with e-learning systems. The results of ANOVA and SEM analyses showed that two contingent variables, gender and job status, significantly influenced the perceptions of predictors and students’ satisfaction with the e-learning system. This dissertation also found a statistically significant moderating effect of two contingent variables, student job status and learning styles, on the relationship between predictors and e-learning system satisfaction. The results suggest that a serious consideration of contingent variables is crucial for improving e-learning system satisfaction. The implications of these results for the management of e-learning systems are discussed and future research directions are recommended. Hsi-Peng Lu 盧希鵬 2009 學位論文 ; thesis 76 en_US
