This study aimed to investigate the factors that affect the continuance intention to use technology among English teachers in China, mainly by examining the direct effects of help seeking, interest, effort regulation, growth mindset, facilitating conditions, perceived usefulness, and perceived ease of use on continuance intention (CI), and the indirect effects the above factors have on continuance intention through self-efficacy. The study sample comprised 459 English language teachers from junior secondary schools in different regions in Western China. A questionnaire that involved the above variables was used, and it was validated using exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. The results revealed significant direct effects of help seeking, effort regulation, growth mindset, facilitating conditions, perceived usefulness, and perceived ease of use on the continuance intention to use technology. However, the results showed that interest did not have a direct effect on the continuance intention to use technology. The findings also demonstrated that growth mindset, interest, effort regulation, help seeking, and perceived usefulness did not indirectly affect the continuance intention to use technology through self-efficacy. Nevertheless, the findings indicated that facilitating conditions and perceived ease of use did have an indirect effect on the continuance intention to use technology through self-efficacy. In light of these findings, some suggestions and recommendations were presented.
