Resumo(s)
Technological innovation drives economic growth and human progress, enhancing living
standards. Repurposing technology for new contexts is a key innovation pathway, but user
acceptance in new contexts is crucial. When technology shifts from public to private
contexts, different social influences affect acceptance. This study examines how social
factors influence the acceptance of repurposed Digital Contact Tracing (DCT) technology,
initially for COVID-19, to manage STIs. Interviews with young adults reveal social stigma,
image, awareness, peer usage, subjective norms, and data security as critical factors. The
study extends Technology Acceptance Models by showing the impact of social influences on
technology repurposing acceptance.
