Abstract
Smart home technology (SHT) offers numerous economic, social, and environmental benefits, positioning it as a sustainable option for individuals and families seeking eco-friendly living solutions. Despite these advantages, adoption rates for SHT remain paradoxically low. Recognizing the ecological potential of SHT, this study investigates the psychological processes that influence the perceived sustainable value of SHT offerings within website content and how these perceptions affect adoption behavior. By integrating innovation diffusion theory with perceived value theory, this research provides a comprehensive framework for understanding the adoption of complex innovations like SHT. Empirical findings reveal that imagery processing during the online purchasing experience significantly enhances the perception of sustainable benefits and reduces the perceived sacrifices associated with adopting SHT, highlighting the importance of visual content in promoting sustainable technology adoption.
期刊介绍：
The interdisciplinary interfaces of Information Systems (IS) are fast emerging as defining areas of research and development in IS. These developments are largely due to the transformation of Information Technology (IT) towards networked worlds and its effects on global communications and economies. While these developments are shaping the way information is used in all forms of human enterprise, they are also setting the tone and pace of information systems of the future. The major advances in IT such as client/server systems, the Internet and the desktop/multimedia computing revolution, for example, have led to numerous important vistas of research and development with considerable practical impact and academic significance. While the industry seeks to develop high performance IS/IT solutions to a variety of contemporary information support needs, academia looks to extend the reach of IS technology into new application domains. Information Systems Frontiers (ISF) aims to provide a common forum of dissemination of frontline industrial developments of substantial academic value and pioneering academic research of significant practical impact.
