Abstract

Technological developments in the form of social media presence should have an impact on the economy of a society. A large number of studies show the influence of the use of social media to increase individual and group‘s income. However, research on 101 householders around the Sepuluh Nopember Institute of Technology shows different results. This study aims to develop the settlement around ITS by prioritizing technology as an image of residential development. Using the TAM model for predicting the impact on family income and ordinal logistic regression analysis for examining sociodemographic variables, the increase in family income is significantly influenced by the level of education followed by the duration of the undertaken business (as the confounder). The result also shows that the influence of existing technology is only limited to general knowledge about technological progress itself. Both Perceived Ease of Use and Perceived Usefulness have no significance (p-value 0.05) to increase family income. More approaches are needed to enable people to use and to adopt social media technology as a tool for increasing family income.
