Paper Abstract:
|
The aim of this paper is to explore the customers perception of security in e-commerce websites in Jordan, since security
is generally the main concern which restricts customers engaging with e-commerce. This paper resulted as part of a PhD
project. One category of the initial results emerged from the first data collection, showed that security concerns for
customers are a psychological matter, which will be highlighted in this paper. A qualitative research approach was
adopted, since the research seeks a viewpoint and understanding of user perception, with the grounded theory method
being used to analyse the data. |
