I samband med den teknologiska utvecklingen har användningen av Radiofrekvensidentifiering (RFID) ökat. Tekniken kan ersätta bland annat betalkort och nycklar genom ett implantat i handen. Den här studien undersöker ifall det råder en skillnad i attityd till RFID-implantat mellan kvinnor och män och vilka faktorer som kan påverka inställningen. Urvalet bestod av 116 individer varav 53 kvinnor och 65 män mellan 20-72 år. Studien genomfördes med en kvantitativ metod genom en webbaserad enkät som bestod av instrumenten Affinity for Technology scale (AT), Global Attitude towards Technology Measure scale (GAT), Locus of Control scale (LoC), frågor om attityd till RFID och RFID-implantat samt öppna frågor. Resultatet visade på en icke signifikant könsskillnad i attityd till RFID-implantat. Trots att resultatet ej blev signifikant erhölls medelvärdesskillnader där männen var något mer positiva till RFID-implantat än kvinnorna. Däremot fanns signifikanta huvudeffekter av variablerna AT och LoC. De som skattade högt på AT och LoC hade en mer positiv attityd till RFID-implantat. / With the advancement of technology, the use of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) has increased. The technology is capable of replacing payment cards and keys through an implant in the hand. This study investigates whether there is a gender difference on the attitudes towards RFID-implants between women and men and what factors that can have an influence upon this attitude. The study participants consisted of 116 adults, of which there were 53 women and 65 men between the ages of 20 and 72. They were surveyed on the web using methods of instruments such as Affinity for Technology scale (AT), Global Attitude towards Technology Measure scale (GAT), Locus of Control scale (LoC) and questions regarding attitudes towards RFID and RFID implants, where there were open questions to answer. According to the results of the ANOVAN, there is no significant gender difference in attitudes towards RFID implants. However, it was found that men were slightly more positive about RFID implants than women, although the difference was not significant. In spite of this, the variables AT and LoC had an effect. Those who rated AT and LoC highly had a more positive attitude towards RFID implants.
