Journal Title: IOSR journal of Business and Management - Year 2018, Vol 20, Issue 4
Abstract
Smart homes technology has been presented as a key means by which households can optimize their use of energy-consuming appliances. This study therefore aims to propose a research framework that integrates the technology acceptance model (TAM), theory of planned behaviour (TPB), UTAUT 2 and other constructs to enrich literature and capture some perceptions of individual users of smart homes technology. Individually, the frameworks of TAM 3and TPB are insightful to comprehending the adoption of smart home technology but a bit parochial in their constructs and so, can rarely provide deep explanation about what motivates individual to adopt technology. This paper reviewed, synthesized and extended the constructs of these models in an integrated framework. The proposed integrated framework led to 14 propositions to promote and facilitate future research, and to guide explanation and prediction of SHT adoption. The introduced constructs in the integrated framework (e.g. automation, mobility, perceived security and hedonic motivation) inculcates technical systems and improve the theoretical base of adoption.
