Q2. What future works have the authors mentioned in the paper "Determinants of end-user acceptance of biometrics: integrating the ``big 3'' of technology acceptance with privacy context" ?
This research has its own limitations that should encourage further research in this area. There are other limitations which could also form the basis for future work in this area to transcend the work conducted here. Moreover, there are many exogenous factors that might influence responses which should be considered and explored in future research. As a complementary view, it would also be interesting to study how ( instead of why ) they adopt such kinds of technologies, as the agency of the end-user does not end with the decision to adopt or reject the technology, but continues to actively shape how the technology is used, in what contexts and for what purposes, which may be rather different from the uses, contexts and purposes envisaged by the originators of the technology.
Q3. What is the effect of trust on the consumer's intentions to accept a biometric system?
The influence of trustTrust is one of the most effective tools for reducing uncertainty [6], the sense of risk and generating a sense of safety [69] and consumer trust is believed to play a pivotal role in consumers’ intentions to accept a biometric system [9] by reducing the perceived risks [45] and uncertainty associated with the acceptance [69].
Q4. What role should facilitating conditions play in biometrics intention to use?
Adequate facilitating conditions (continuous training and technical support to users) should also play an important role in biometrics intention to use.
Q5. What is the effect of trust on the consumer's intention to accept a biometric system?
As trust increases, consumers are likely to perceive less risk than if trust were absent; the effect of trust on the consumer's intention to accept biometric technologies is thus mediated by risk as already suggested by [46].
Q6. Why is trust an important factor in biometrics acceptance?
Both because of the dominance of trust in the existing literature, and because biometric system demands the cooperation of individuals with little ability to monitor or control those operating it, trust is an important factor when considering biometric technology acceptance.
Q7. What is the second area of practical implications of biometric systems?
The second area of practical implications deals with antecedent factors of biometric systems acceptance and comprises factors such as perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, compatibility and perceived risks.
Q8. What is the importance of a study aimed at identifying non-technical issues?
A study aiming to identify relevant non-technical issues such as the perceptions of future end-users’ fears and anticipations is likely to be a prerequisite for the development of a strategy to support the acceptance of such a pervasive innovation.
Q9. What criteria were used to discern possible participations in line with demographic data?
In particular, the two criteria that were used to discern possible participations in line with demographic data were: gender (male/female) and age (split into two groups 15-18 year olds and 19-25 year olds).
Q10. What is the significance of compatibility in predicting acceptance of a biometric system?
The research of Koenig-Lewis et al. [49] acknowledges that compatibility not only had a strong direct effect but was also identified as an important antecedent for perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness.
Q11. What is the causal link between biometrics and the intention of the user?
The authors hypothesize, alongside some of their contemporaries [e.g. 17], a causal link exists between facilitating conditions and users intentions, so that greater facilitating conditions will increase the likelihood to accept biometrics.
Q12. What is the relationship between social influence and acceptance of biometrics?
In their study, the authors will also consider social influence to be related to notions of peer pressure in the context of the biometric technology acceptance.
