title = "Users{\textquoteright} privacy perceptions about wearable technology: Examining influence of personality, trust, and usability",
abstract = "Wearable technologies have become useful instruments in providing accurate and trustworthy information about individuals{\textquoteright} activities, especially for health-and-fitness related purposes. However, the constant and ubiquitous data practices of wearable devices bring challenges to users{\textquoteright} privacy and security. This study focused on smartwatches and investigated how users{\textquoteright} personalities, trust, and the usability of the device affected their privacy perceptions while using the wearable device. Our results indicated that users who demonstrated a high tendency towards neuroticism had more awareness about third-party data sharing after a wearable trial. Also, those high in personal trust were less concerned about privacy. In addition, we found that the usability of a device affected the users{\textquoteright} perceptions of data practices. As the first study of its kind, we provide several suggestions for designing privacy-enhancing wearable devices and for future research.",
