Abstrakt: Healthcare robot technology has become the important tool and it has extremely important role in the healthcare field. In spite of it great potential, gaps exist in our grasp of how users will assess change related to the healthcare robot. Previously research shows that when the new technology is used, the user may make decision to accept or resist technology. According to barrier theories this study develops a modify resistance model to describe the factors which resist the medical staffs' intention to use healthcare robot. The participants were selected from medical staffs (physician, nurse, and staffs) in Tertiary care center located in Thailand. We collected data using questionnaire to test a research model. The research model is analyzed by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The empirical results confirm that technological barrier, time barrier and change barrier have negative effect on medicals' behavioral intention to use healthcare robots. This study is discussed several practical and theoretical implications.
