摘要

隐私行为被描述为动态的。虽然大多数隐私研究都依赖于横断面分析，但调查个人内部的这些动态是很重要的。在本研究中，我们将重点关注新冠肺炎接触者追踪应用程序的采用，因为这是一个基于隐私计算的决定，而疫情的发展是高度动态的。目前的纵向在线小组研究（N=548）在六个月的时间里对该应用程序的用户和非用户进行了三次调查。研究结果支持受试者内部的动态隐私演算假设：情境隐私问题是负面的，情境感知的好处和知识与应用程序的采用呈正相关。值得注意的是，人们发现了关注和利益之间的人际互动。此外，对隐私的需求调节了感知利益和应用程序采用之间的关系。因此，隐私（微积分）决策似乎是一个动态的、情境性的决策，而不是一次性的决策。

One-Time Decision or Continual Adjustment? A Longitudinal Study of the Within-Person Privacy Calculus among Users and Non-Users of a COVID-19 Contact Tracing App

ABSTRACT Privacy behaviors are described to be situationally dynamic. While most privacy studies rely on cross-sectional analyses, it is important to investigate these dynamics within persons. In the present study, we will focus on the adoption of a COVID-19 contact tracing app as this was shown to be a privacy calculus-based decision and the pandemic situation unfolded as highly dynamical. The present longitudinal online panel study (N = 548) investigated users and non-users of this app at three points over a six-month period. Results support dynamical privacy calculus assumptions on the within-subject level: situational privacy concerns were negatively, and situationally perceived benefits and knowledge were positively associated with app adoption. Remarkably, a within-person interaction between concerns and benefits was found. Moreover, the trait need for privacy moderated the relation between perceived benefits and app adoption. Hence, privacy (calculus) decisions seem to be a dynamic and situational rather than a one-time decision.

期刊介绍： Media Psychology is an interdisciplinary journal devoted to publishing theoretically-oriented empirical research that is at the intersection of psychology and media communication. These topics include media uses, processes, and effects. Such research is already well represented in mainstream journals in psychology and communication, but its publication is dispersed across many sources. Therefore, scholars working on common issues and problems in various disciplines often cannot fully utilize the contributions of kindred spirits in cognate disciplines.
