Abstract
PurposeThis study is among the first to integrate the technology acceptance model (TAM) and value-based adoption model (VAM) in the context of augmented reality (AR) shopping. It assesses how consumers' rational (TAM) and emotional (VAM) factors influence their intention to use AR in online shopping via perceived value and consumer engagement.Design/methodology/approachThis study uses a quantitative research approach and employs a standardized survey questionnaire distributed on social media platforms to recruit Gen Z members who are potential buyers or users of AR technology. SmartPLS 4.0 was used to test the responses of 204 respondents.FindingsThe results indicate that consumers who perceive a higher value of AR in shopping are inclined to use AR in their future shopping when AR shopping is easy to use, useful, personalized, innovative and provides a highly engaging experience. Interestingly, perceived sacrifice did not influence perceived value. This study confirms that integrating TAM and VAM is instrumental in capturing value, which in turn influences engagement and the intention to use AR in online shopping.Originality/valueThis study further extends the conceptualization of AR perceived value by combining rational components derived from TAM and VAM, thus leading to a sturdy and theoretically grounded framework. In addition, this study contributes to the literature on extended reality, namely AR shopping, and helps brand managers manage highly evolving AR experience for Gen Z.
