In this work, we shed light on users’ acceptance of mHealth with the example of mobile video consultation with a doctor. Our quantitative study is based on a survey of 210 respondents. We draw on technology acceptance model, one of the most-used and often-cited concepts for explaining adoption behavior for newly introduced technologies and technical services. The results reveal that an interaction between personal innovativeness and perceived privacy risk has an effect on user’s perceived ease of use. The findings contribute to research by enhancing our understanding of mHealth adoption from a user’s acceptance perspective. http://aisel.aisnet.org/amcis2017/Healthcare/Presentations/16/» weiterlesen» einklappen
