14、onsumer research on mobile payments focuses on their acceptance, adoption, and use. Dahlberg et al. (2008) suggested that ease of use, usefulness, security, cost, and compatibility were the most important contributors to

26、and Jones investigated the role money attitudes and credit card use play in compulsive buying among U.S. college students. Robert and Jones concluded that a student’s use of credit cards reinforced the relationship betwe
