Exploring System Use as a Measure of Knowledge Management Success The remaining interviews were unstructured. All data was collected within two months. FindinGs on KMs use Quantitative test of relationship between system Quality and use of the KMs Liu, Olfman, and Ryan (2005) tested the relation- ships between several of the dimensions from the Jennex and Olfman KMS Success Model. The goal was to quantitatively establish the relation- ship between these dimensions, KMS use, and KMS effectiveness using structured equation modeling. The key hypothesis with respect to use was that KMS use would have a positive ef- fect on organizational learning (for this study the KMS was to facilitate organizational learning so use was the perceptions of users with respect to the usefulness of the KMS. This supports using an intent to "use" measure as these measures include usefulness to support predicting KMS use when appropriate. Quantitative test of tAM When Applied to KMs Adoption Money and Turner (2005) applied TAM to the study of KMS with the goal of verifying the ap- plicability of the TAM components to the study of the KMS research context. They used a Web- based survey derived from previous TAM research and administered to the employees of two firms wanting to obtain data on the adoption and use new KMS. Fifty-one responses were obtained of which 35 were usable. Thirteen of the rejected responses were rejected because the respondent indicated they did not use the system. Correla-
