Literature has identified the need to study socially pervasive ICT “in context” in order to understand how user acceptability of innovation varies according to different inputs. This thesis contributes to the existing body of knowledge on innovation studies (Chapter 2) and proposes a methodology a conceptual model, for representing dynamic contextual changes in longitudinal studies. The foundation for this methodology is the “Price of Convenience” (PoC) Model (Chapter 4). As a theory development Thesis, it deals with two related studies of socially pervasive ICT implementation: (1) voluntary adoption of innovations and (2) acceptance of new socially pervasive and ubiquitous ICT innovations (Chapters 6 and 7). / Thesis (PhDInformationTechnology)--University of South Australia, [2006]
