The Internet of Things (IoT) has transformed the way individuals, businesses, and industries interact with technology by connecting everyday devices through intelligent digital networks. From smart homes and wearable devices to healthcare systems, manufacturing, transportation, agriculture, and smart cities, IoT services continue to reshape modern life. However, the successful adoption of IoT technologies depends not only on technological innovation but also on users' willingness to embrace and continuously use these services. Among the many factors influencing technology acceptance, effort expectancy-the degree to which users perceive a technology as easy to learn and use-plays a critical role in shaping behavioral intentions toward IoT services. Research based on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) consistently identifies effort expectancy as one of the major determinants of technology adoption, although its influence may vary across contexts.
Effort Expectancy and Behavioral Intentions Toward IoT Services provides a comprehensive exploration of the relationship between perceived ease of use and users' intentions to adopt Internet of Things technologies. The book introduces readers to the theoretical foundations of technology acceptance models, including the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT), Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), and related behavioral frameworks that explain how users evaluate emerging technologies. It examines how effort expectancy interacts with performance expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions, trust, perceived risk, privacy concerns, and user experience to influence the acceptance of IoT services across different environments.
The book discusses IoT applications in consumer electronics, smart homes, healthcare, education, industrial automation, retail, logistics, transportation, agriculture, and smart city infrastructures. It explores how intuitive system design, user-friendly interfaces, accessibility, digital literacy, and service quality contribute to improved user satisfaction and long-term adoption. Readers gain insight into the practical challenges organizations face when deploying IoT solutions and the strategies that can enhance user confidence, trust, and engagement.
