Abstract:
This study looks at the role that
social factors play in a consumer’s decision to purchase goods or services
online. Of particular consideration to this research is the Australian
electronic grocery shopping (EGS) industry. Social factors have been found
to play a part in technology adoption studies. This research looks at EGS
as a technological innovation, and attempts to assess the priorities of
the potential market of consumers and the importance of social factors in
their adoption decisions. |
