Both digital and analog procedures are used. As a basis, an Integrated Theoretical Framework (ITF) is developed, which includes theories from healthcare, information systems, and psychology perspectives to study the intention to use. The ITF is applied to study individual decision-making behavior for different decisions and different levels of risk.
