Understanding the primary determinants of smartwatch continuance intention is thus important for brands, researchers, and users alike. Therefore, a conceptual model was developed that combines the expectation-confirmation model (ECM) with habit, perceived usability, and perceived enjoyment, to explain the continuance intention of smartwatches. To test the conceptual model, we collected data from the U.S.A. (574 valid cases). Our results support the relationships of ECM, such as confirmation, perceived usefulness, and satisfaction, and also the role of habit and perceived usability. Habit was the most important factor to explain the continuance intention of smartwatches.engSmartwatchesWearablesContinuance IntentionExpectation-Confirmation Model (ECM)HabitPerceived UsabilityPerceived EnjoymentDeterminants of continuance intention in wearables : the case of smartwatchesmaster thesis201218909
