In a world where novelty is requested by the market, companies driven by innovation should realize whether consumers are prepared to receive a disruptive technology. In this scenario, technology diffusion has become a critical topic of debate among researchers. Consumer resistance, nevertheless, has been neglected in the literature. Thus, this study analyses the perceived innovation characteristics that inhibit the critical mass of consumers to adopt technological products. Moreover, it complements the current literature by providing empirical results and by testing the existing theory. The research design takes a qualitative multi-case study approach by investigating the most pertinent characteristics of two disruptive technological products that were rejected by the early majority of consumers versus other two disruptive technological products that were largely accepted. The results show that compatibility with the customer’s lifestyle constitutes the most prominent factor that raises barriers to adoption.NSBE - UNLLages, Luis FilipeAndreassi, TalesRUNVeloso, Luís Miguel Ferreira Pinto2015-05-13T09:57:58Z2014-062014-06-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/14937TID:201476002enginfo: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:RCAAP2024-03-11T03:50:24Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/14937Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:22:11.576249Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
