The (digital) medium of mobility is the message: Examining the influence of e-scooter mobile app perceptions on e-scooter use intent

The present research examines how perceptions of e-scooter mobile apps (i.e., a communication technology) influence intent to use e-scooters (i.e., a transportation technology) while considering other perceptions specific to e-scooters (ease of use, usefulness, safety, environmental impact, and enjo...
