1 Introduction
2 Tourist Mobility
2.1 Trust and Destination Safety
-
H1. Trust for COVID-19 CTA is positively related to destination safety.
-
H2. Destination safety is positively related to intention to use COVID-19 CTA.
2.2 Trust and Intention to Use
-
H3. Trust for COVID-19 CTA is positively related to intention to use it
2.3 Trust and Structural Assurance
-
H4. Trust for COVID-19 CTA is positively related to structural assurance.
-
H5. Structural assurance is positively related to intention to use COVID-19 CTA.
-
H6: The relationship between trust and intention to use COVID-19 contact tracing app is moderated by self-efficacy (Fig. 1)××
3 Research Methodology
Variables | Items |
---|---|
Trust (PT) | PT1. COVID-19 contact tracing app is trustworthy PT2. COVID-19 contact tracing app keeps its promise PT3. COVID-19 contact tracing app keeps users’ interests in mind |
Structural assurance (SA) | SA1. COVID-19 contact tracing app has appropriate legal safeguards SA2. am assured that COVID-19 contact tracing app has features that adequately protect me from hacking SA3. believe COVID-19 contact tracing app is safe because it provides adequate protection |
Destination safety (DS) | DS1. Additional security measures at airport make traveling safer DS2. Safety is the most important attribute a destination can offer DS3. Safety is a serious consideration when I am choosing a destination |
Self-efficacy (SE) | SE1. I am skilled at avoiding dangers while using COVID-19 contact tracing app SE2. I am active in securing my environment when using COVID-19 contact tracing app SE3. I am confident that I can remove any hazards while using COVID-19 contact tracing app SE4. I have the ability to protect myself from dangers while using COVID-19 contact tracing app |
Intention (IU) | IU1. I think more and more will use COVID-19 contact tracing app in the future IU1. I think I will use COVID-19 contact tracing app when organising and taking trips IU1. In the future, I will encourage my friends to use COVID-19 contact tracing app |
