Description

The study aims to analyze the effects of Digital Competence, Technology Readiness, and Perceived Behavioral Control on AI Technology Adoption among accounting students. A quantitative approach was employed using pri-mary data collected through an online questionnaire distributed via Google Forms. The study utilized convenience sampling involving 199 active account-ing students located in Jakarta and Tangerang. Data were analyzed using SmartPLS to evaluate the proposed relationships among variables. The find-ings reveal that Digital Competence does not have a significant effect on AI Technology Adoption. In contrast, Technology Readiness and Perceived Be-havioral Control positively and significantly influence AI Technology Adop-tion among accounting students. The study implies that accounting students need to develop adaptive mindsets, technological confidence, and readiness to engage with AI-driven tools and learning environments. Higher education in-stitutions are also encouraged to design learning strategies and curricula that strengthen students’ technological readiness and behavioral confidence to bet-ter prepare future accounting professionals for the AI-driven digital economy.
