Trust in AI and Its Role in the Acceptance of AI Technologies
Open accessAbstract
As AI-enhanced technologies become common in a variety of domains, there is an increasing need to define and examine the trust that users have in such technologies. Given the progress in the development of AI, a correspondingly sophisticated understanding of trust in the technology is required. This paper addresses this need by explaining the role of trust in the intention to use AI technologies. Study 1 examined the role of trust in the use of AI voice assistants based on survey responses from college students. A path analysis confirmed that trust had a significant effect the on intention to use AI, which operated through perceived usefulness and participants’ attitude toward voice assistants. In Study 2, using data from a representative sample of the U.S. population, different dimensions of trust were examined using exploratory factor analysis, which yielded two dimensions: human-like trust and functionality trust. The results of the path analyses from Study 1 were replicated in Study 2, confirming the indirect effect of trust and the effects of perceived usefulness, ease of use, and attitude on intention to use. Further, both dimensions of trust shared a similar pattern of effects within the model, with functionality-related trust exhibiting a greater total impact on usage intention than human-like trust. Overall, the role of trust in the acceptance of AI technologies was significant across both studies. This research contributes to the advancement and application of the TAM in AI-related applications and offers a multidimensional measure of trust that can be utilized in the future study of trustworthy AI.

TL;DR
Two studies extend the technology acceptance model (TAM) by adding trust in AI, finding that trust indirectly affects intention to use AI through perceived usefulness and attitude. Study 2 identifies two trust dimensions—human-like trust and functionality trust—with functionality trust showing a greater total impact on usage intention than human-like trust.
Key findings
- In Study 1 (N = 312 college students), the path model explained 52% of variance in usage intention (R² = .52); attitude was the strongest direct predictor of behavioral intention (β = .62, p < .001), and trust had a significant indirect effect through perceived usefulness and attitude. Total effects on usage intention were perceived ease of use β = .63, perceived usefulness β = .46, and trust β = .32 (all p < .001).
- In Study 2 (N = 640 representative U.S. adults), exploratory factor analysis yielded two trust dimensions: human-like trust in AI (six items) and functionality trust in AI (five items). The TAM results replicated: attitude predicted intention (β = .65, p < .001), perceived ease of use had total effects of β = .71 in both models, and perceived usefulness had total effects of β = .57 and β = .56 (all p < .001).
- Both trust dimensions had significant indirect effects on intention to use smart technologies, but functionality-related trust had a greater total impact on usage intention (β = .42, p < .001) than human-like trust (β = .36, p < .001).
Methods
- Study 1: online survey conducted October–December 2020 with 312 undergraduate students from a large Midwest university (56% female; ages 18–29, median 21; 96% had used at least one AI voice assistant). Path analysis was conducted in R using lavaan with maximum likelihood estimation and bootstrapped 95% confidence intervals (k = 1,000).
- Study 2: online survey conducted April 2021 using a national Qualtrics panel with quota sampling for gender, age, and race based on U.S. Census data; 640 respondents participated (50.1% female, mean age = 46.43, SD = 17.83; 65.9% White, 12% Black or African American, 12% Hispanic, 5.9% Asian, 4.4% other). Trust items were factor analyzed, yielding two dimensions, and two separate path models tested human-like trust and functionality trust using the same analytic approach as Study 1.
- Measures: perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, attitude, and behavioral intention were adapted from TAM scales; Study 1 trust in AI voice assistants used four created items; Study 2 trust items were constructed around benevolence/helpfulness, integrity/reliability, and competence/functionality.
Limitations
- Stated in the paper: the studies focused on consumer AI products (voice assistants and smart technologies) associated with lower risk, so findings may not generalize to high-stakes AI such as self-driving cars or healthcare AI; trust is dynamic and may differ across stages such as initial versus ongoing trust; the path models are correlational and cannot guarantee causal effects; and online panel respondents may not be truly representative because they have computer and internet access, skewing toward higher technology acceptance.
- Evident from the text: Study 1 used a convenience sample of college students, limiting generalizability; both studies relied on cross-sectional self-report survey data, so causal direction among trust, perceived usefulness, attitude, and intention cannot be established from these data alone.

“This study follows the hypotheses tested by other TAMrelated studies that have proposed trust as an antecedent of perceived usefulness and subsequent to perceived ease of use while having a direct effect on attitude (Gefen et al., 2003; Kim, 2012; Wu et al., 2011).”

“Later, more elaborate versions of the TAM (i.e., TAM 2, TAM 3) were developed, incorporating additional external factors, such as social norms and perceived enjoyment (Venkatesh & Bala, 2008; Venkatesh & Davis, 2000), and treating attitude as a predictor of behavior.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-06, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-06 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
