Abstract


This article present Green Information technology implementation behavior. The aim of this research are 1) to study implement green information technology. 2) To analyze relationship among attitude, subject norm, and green information technology implementation behavior. The research means is a questionnaire that was developed from the Theory of Reasoned Action, Ajzen, demography theory, and green information technology. The population is a citizen who works in Bangkok metropolitan. 500 samples was sampling by convenient method and only 489 questionnaires was classified to analyze.  The statistics tools of this research consists of frequency, percent, mean, standard deviation, Cronbach’s alpha reliability test value, and the selected data also manipulate by factor analysis and Pearson correlation test. The result found the most respondent age is between 21 and 30; and have a routine work with computer. The almost response in average frequently level implement green information technology is at high. The factor analysis extracts two factors from nine green information technology variables that were named: do with computer, and do in procedure. The hypothesis test show that there are a correlation among attitude, subject norm, and green information technology implementation. These is different pattern of those correlation in respondent who has age between 31 and 45. In addition, the pattern of those correlation is also different in all type of using computer for works.
