    Expectation-Confirmation Theory (ECT) has been widely used to predict the contin-ued usage in the consumer behavior literature. This research examines the factors influ-encing online consumers’ intention to continue shopping in the context of B2C electronic commerce. Specifically, this study integrates Bhattacherjee’s Expectation-Confirmation Model (ECM) with cognitive absorption to investigate online consumers’ repurchase in-tention. Eight research hypotheses derived from the proposed model were empirically validated. The results suggest that online consumers’ repurchase intention is determined primarily by satisfaction, followed by perceived usefulness. Also, satisfaction is jointly determined by confirmation, perceived usefulness, and cognitive absorption.

    With the addition of cognitive absorption, the extended ECM provides a better fit than the original model for predicting online consumers’ repurchase intention. Moreover, the research results indicate that cognitive absorption exerts a strong effect on satisfac-tion, whereas perceived usefulness exhibits a weak impact on consumers’ satisfaction. This finding implies that online consumers’ satisfaction may be more related to their in-trinsic motivations rather than the extrinsic motivations.
