Abstract Citizens’ low continuous-use intention has become a great challenge for the development of e-government in China. This study has developed a chain model of e-government service quality, perceived value, and citizens’ continuous-use intention to explain the relationship between government website service quality and perceived value, as well as how that relationship influences citizens’ reuse intention. Using data collected from a survey of 1,650 citizen users living in one direct-controlled municipality and four high-population cities in China, this study verifies the components of e-government service quality through partial least squares (PLS) analysis and then tests the proposed concept model using structural equation modeling. The results reveal that the concept of e-government service quality has eight contributing dimensions: system quality, reliability, security, accessibility, information quality, service capability, interactivity, and responsiveness. Perceived service value is a powerful mediator between service quality and citizens’ continuous-use intention. The intention to use is a consequence of service quality, service value, and satisfaction.
