Research Abstract |
Through technical supports of"WinEPG" for users in Japan, factors for diffusion of new methods of rehabilitation were discussed, based on"The model of five stages in the innovation-decision process.""WinEPG" is the electro palatography system, which is wide-spread in the United Kingdom. It is suggested that modifications of"Perceived characteristics of the innovation" are necessary for diffusion of"WinEPG."
