A research gap was identified as the students\u2019 acceptance of these learning tools has not been studied to the best of the author\u2019s information, in India. The current study employs the conceptual model based on the UTAUT model by Venkatesh et al. (MIS Q 27(3):425\u2013478, 2003), extended and modified by Khechine et al.

The sample comprised 305 students, 48 females (15.7%) and 257 males (84.3%), with an average age of 18\u00a0years. Partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM), a methodology of structural equation modeling which allows the assessment of any complex cause-effect model comprising latent variables was used for assessing the hypothesized model using SmartPLS version 3.2.9. The results show that the college students were impacted by Performance Expectancy PE, Effort expectancy EE, and Social Influence SI in shaping their behavioral intention BIU; Facilitating conditions FC and Intrinsic Values IV didn\u2019t influence their behavioral intention. However, their behavioral intention BIU and their Intrinsic Values (IV) influenced their intention to use (IU) social networking tools for learning for Higher education, in the Indian context.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1186\/s40561-021-00164-9","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,19]],"date-time":"2021-09-19T12:02:21Z","timestamp":1632052941000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":44,"title":["College students\u2019 reception of social networking tools for learning in India: an extended UTAUT model"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"8","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9509-6225","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Irum","family":"Alvi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,19]]},"reference":[{"issue":"2","key":"164_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"38","DOI":"10.17220\/mojet.2018.02.003","volume":"6","author":"MS Ahmed","year":"2018","unstructured":"Ahmed, M.
