Everett Rogers, a pioneer in the field of the diffusion of innovations, identified five qualities that determine individual attitudes towards adopting new technology (2003). He theorized that individuals are concerned with:
•Relative advantage: The individual adopting the new innovation must see how it will be an improvement over the old way of doing things.
•Compatibility with existing values and practices: The adopter must understand how the new innovation aligns with current practices.
•Simplicity: The adopter must believe he or she can easily master the new technology; the more difficult learning the new system appears, the greater the resistance that will occur.
•Trialability: The adopter should have the opportunity to ‘play around’ with the new technology and explore its capabilities.
