With the increase in people's demand for knowledge and the development of media technology, a close and mutually reinforcing connection has been formed between knowledge demand and media technology. However, the mode of knowledge content acceptance is also shifting toward fragmentation. Fragmentation provides the convenience of information acquisition, but at the same time, it distracts users' limited attention, forming non-consecutive behavior such as multitasking. This study focuses on historical knowledge content on the TikTok platform, systematically comparing and analyzing two distinct acceptance behavior models, non-consecutive viewing behavior and continuous viewing behavior from the perspective of knowledge content acceptance utility. It further explores the differences in utility and knowledge comprehension between these two viewing behaviors. This study was carried out in this study by using experimental method. The experimental group was divided into non-consecutive viewing behavior and the control group into continuous viewing behavior the experiment was divided into two stages, consisting of a preliminary experiment and a formal experiment. In this experiment, a total of 60 college students were recruited to view the knowledge content in the form of video on the spot and fill out a questionnaire. By matching 30 people to each group, researchers secured homogeneity between groups. According to the results of the study, the effect of continuous viewing behavior was higher than non-consecutive viewing behavior in terms of the ease of knowledge acquisition, the usefulness of knowledge acquisition, and satisfaction of knowledge acquisition. In terms of knowledge understanding, the two groups did not show a significant difference before the experiment, but after the experiment, continuous viewing was more understanding of knowledge than non-consecutive viewing. This study provides the importance of still having to develop immersion information acquisition habit even in the information fragmentation acceptance environment.
