Wearable Fitness Trackers (WFTs) could both lead to healthier lifestyles and be suitable for tracking infectious diseases. However, though they have existed for many years they are still not prevalent. We developed a research model which was theoretically embedded in technology acceptance research, then analyzed the data collected through a survey of 207 WFT users and non-users. Our findings suggest that, in respect to both users and non-users, perceived value is the strongest driver of usage intention. Furthermore, we found significant differences between male and female participants. Unfortunately, we were not able to confirm a relation between Covid-19 awareness and WFT usage intention. Our study provides relevant findings to manufacturers and insights into the consumer WFT needs. |
