Abstract

Many studies examining the relation between mobile phone use and the personality traits of individual users have concluded that a significant relationship exists with extraversion standing out as a common trait in this context. In addition, innovativeness plays a key role in the users’ adoption of technology and this has been studied within the domain of information systems including the adoption of mobile commerce.
