Ubiquitous Computing Acceptance Model: end user concern about security, privacy and risk
by Dong-Hee Shin
International Journal of Mobile Communications (IJMC), Vol. 8, No. 2, 2010

Abstract: This study integrates cognitive and affective attitudes as the primary factors of influence to formulate a Ubiquitous Computing Acceptance Model (UCAM), which is intended to predict whether potential users will accept ubiquitous computing (u-computing). The goal of this study was to empirically assess the UCAM by identifying the factors that contribute to user attitudes and intentions in u-computing environments. This study is one of the first to empirically evaluate the relationships among trust, security, privacy, usefulness, ease of use and behavioural intention in the ubiquitous city context.
