This developmental paper focuses on work that is currently being conducted to investigate individual differences in the adoption and secure use of smart home-based technologies by consumers. Specifically, the research focuses on individual differences in two primary psychological characteristics (risk taking propensity and impulsivity), technology adoption propensity, and a range of socio-demographic factors (including age, gender, and education level), to explore their potential influence on the adoption and secure use of smart home technologies at the consumer level. Through an online survey in December 2019-January 2020, 633 responses were collected from UK-based participants. These data will be discussed at the conference in order to understand the potential for further development and analysis of the data collected in relation to various theoretical perspectives, thus maximizing the potential theoretical contribution of the research across the management discipline
