Abstract
Intrinsic Motivation Inventory (IMI) is a multidimensional instrument originated from Self Determination Theory (SDT). It is used for the assessment of the subjective experiences of participants in a specific context as determinants of intrinsic motivation. The aim of this study is to assess the distinctive features of IMI among Enterprise Resource Planning users in a higher education institution (HEIs) through adaptation of original IMI instrument. The results of the study presented in the tabular and graphical form furnish that in general, majority of ERP users have positive attitude towards ERP usage and adoption. As this research is conducted at the early post implementation stage there might be further improvement in users’ attitude towards ERP usage is expected in later stages. The results give momentum to longitudinal investigation in order to understand different variables which may affect users’ performance over the time. This will further help in devising suitable strategies for augmenting users’ motivation to use ERP in order to improve the effectiveness of post-implementation ERP usage.
