Characteristics:
Relative Advantage
Compatibility
Complexity
Trialability
Observability
Relative advantage:
• how improved an innovation is over the previous
generation.
• Several Analysis
• The greater the perceived relative advantage of an
innovation, the more rapid its rate of
• adoption will be.
Compatibility:
• The innovation has to be absorbed into an
individual’s life.
• degree to which the product is consistent with
existing values and past experience of the adopters
Complexity:
By: Meenaz
• whether it is easy to be adopted, if the innovation is
too difficult to use then individual will not likely
adopt it.
Trialability:
• ability to make trials easy for new products.
• New ideas that can be tried beforhand be adopted
more quickly than innovations that are not divisible.
• Trialability reduces Uncertainity.
