Our homes are no exception. The use of smart technologies in households, in addition to providing comfort and convenience, is increasingly contributing to a more efficient energy consumption, by granting more control and automation over energy usage. Despite the potential benefits of smart homes and its continuous growth in the market, the adoption rate of such innovative technologies remains lower than expected. This study proposes a theoretical model, based on the extended unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT2), to examine the factors that explain individual intentions and behavior towards smart home technologies. Additionally, the effects of environmental awareness are explored among the target adoption variables of this technology. Data collected from 255 individuals were used to test the research model. The findings demonstrate the significant role of environmental awareness in a smart home context, through direct, mediating and moderating effects, specifically among the variables of behavioral intention, use behavior, and intention to recommend. This study provides meaningful insights for researches, marketers, and policy makers, by exploring determinants of smart home adoption and highlighting newer environmental approaches to these technologies.Oliveira, Tiago André Gonçalves Félix deRUNFerreira, Laura Beatriz Lemos Henriques2023-12-09T01:30:43Z2020-12-092020-12-09T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/110489TID:202582710enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T04:54:23Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/110489Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:41:39.217808Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
