To that end, the proposed conceptual model integrates the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT2), Perceived Health Condition, eHealth Literacy and Perceived Health Competence as determinants of the adoption of mHealth. To answer the research questions, we used an online questionnaire administered to a non-probabilistic sample of Brazilian and Portuguese individuals who have or have not used mHealth.
