shows that the perception of app’s and providers’ reputations influences both interpersonal and institutional trust. Privacy sensitivity, as expected, shows a significantly negative influence on trust in privacy ergo the institutional trust. Hence, these two factors appear to be the main direct determinants of trust itself. Regarding the remaining external factors, technical affinity and competence show a significantly positive influence on the perceived ease of use, a result that is intuitive. Perceived control has the same kind of influence both on the PEOU as well as the perceived usefulness. Besides these intuitive results, there are also weakly significant influences that lack contentual explanation: Negative experience with apps for example shows a counterintuitively positive effect on PU while PEOU shows a negative effect on the intention to change behaviour. Although only being significant on a 10% level, we mention these results as an indicator for possible needs of further qualitative research following our study that could explain these phenomena. Regarding all results, we see various opportunities for future research based on our findings. Currently, these results are being used by us for a follow up study. The aim of that study is to identify tangible modes of governance for complex traffic systems. To govern these systems, it is key to know how recommendations to change behaviour lead to users’ factual action.
