Abstract
Internet of Things (IoT) is a technology that is changing the way of doing everything.
Empirical studies focused on the technical aspect of this technology while studies related
to the behavioural approach are limited. Among the empirical studies, there is no
agreement on the predictors of IoT adoption by users. Therefore, the purpose of this
study is to review and analyze the literature systematically to find the status of IoT
adoption and the predictors that affect the adoption. To achieve this purpose, a
systematic literature review is conducted to identify the related articles. Three filtering
processes are deployed to refine the selected articles. This has resulted in reviewing 22
articles between 2016-2020. A frequency analysis was conducted. The findings of the
22 articles indicate that the number of articles pertaining to IoT is increasing with
majority of the studies were conducted in Asian countries in smart devices, healthcare,
consumers, and smart home IoT.
