As an enthusiast with a deep understanding of internet banking and related topics, I've extensively studied the dynamics of online financial services, user behavior, and the factors influencing individuals' decisions in adopting internet banking. My expertise is grounded in a combination of academic research, practical experience, and continuous engagement with industry trends up until my last knowledge update in January 2022.
Now, let's delve into the various concepts covered in the provided article about an internet banking survey:
-
Survey Purpose:

- It seeks to understand users' experiences and expectations regarding Internet banking services.
-
Demographics and Internet Usage:
- Duration of WWW usage is categorized into different time frames (less than 1 month, 1 to 6 months, 6 to 12 months, more than 1 year).
- Weekly computer usage for fun/play, work, and personal reasons is measured in hours.
-
Online Activities:
- Participants are asked about online activities, specifically tax filing and purchasing/selling financial products online.
-
Banking Habits:

-
Internet Bank Account:
