An Integrated Framework Approach to Understanding Vietnamese People’s Intention to Adopt Smart Home Solutions

Abstract

In recent years, although smart homes and smart home solutions have been widely accepted in developed regions (such as Europe, the United States, and Japan), their application in emerging countries (such as Vietnam) remains limited. This study is aimed at assessing the factors influencing Vietnamese people’s intention to adopt smart home solutions based on the integration of the technology acceptance model and innovation diffusion theory. The study collected quantitative data from a survey of 310 participants in Vietnam and analyzed them using structural equation modelling with AMOS software. This study’s findings show that compatibility and perceived usefulness play important roles in promoting users’ intention to adopt smart home solutions. This study has practical implications for businesses in Vietnam and provides useful recommendations for future research.
