Abstract
An empirical study was conducted to examine the social psychological processes that may influence an individual's adoption of online privacy protection strategies. Building from the theory of planned behavior, a theoretical model predicting self-protection of online privacy was tested in the present study. This model accounted for nearly a quarter of the variability in actual adoption during a ten-day period immediately after participants completed the initial questionnaire. Overall, the present research provided a strong support for the theoretical utility of psychological factors and processes in online privacy related research. © 2008 Mary Ann Liebert, Inc.
