Sumario: | PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to examine how risks and benefits affect users’ privacy-related decision-making processes. DESIGN/METHODS/APPROACH: This study collected and analyzed the neural activity processes of users’ privacy-related decisions when faced with personalized services with different risks and benefits through an ERP experiment that included 40 participants. FINDINGS/RESULTS: The findings show that users subconsciously categorize personalized services based on benefit; Privacy calculus affects privacy decision by influencing the allocation of cognitive resources for personalized service, and the scarcity of cognitive resources increases the degree of privacy disclosure; Emotional change in privacy decision is the result of many factors, not the result of privacy risk alone. ORIGINALITY/DISCUSSION: This study provides a new perspective to explain the process of privacy decision-making, and a new approach to investigate the privacy paradox. |
