Highlights This study examines influential factors for intention to use autonomous vehicles. System and psychology level factors are identified by literature reviews. Perceived risk affects intention to use without any effects of antecedents. Self-efficacy is presented to affect perceived ease of use and intention to use. Psychological ownership significantly affects intention to use.

    Abstract Autonomous vehicles are expected to be commercialized within a few years, and researchers have investigated various factors that influence their adoption. However, only a few studies have considered comparative and psychological perspectives that can affect user-vehicle relationships. Focusing on this limitation, this study investigates influential factors on the use of autonomous vehicles in terms of a technology acceptance model (which considers perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, and intention to use) and factors for autonomous vehicle use (e.g., perceived risk, relative advantage, self-efficacy, and psychological ownership (i.e., feeling of ownership)). Our results show that self-efficacy positively affects the perceived ease of use and intention to use, while the relative advantage affects perceived usefulness. Psychological ownership affects the intention to use but not the perceived usefulness. This implies that encouraging a consumer to form a psychological bond (i.e., psychological ownership) with an autonomous vehicle may be an effective strategy for promoting the use of autonomous vehicles.
