自动驾驶汽车（AV）代表了基于智能互联网的技术与交通领域先前创新的联系。AV研究面临的一个挑战是，该技术还不能随时供消费者体验。因此，公众对自动驾驶汽车的看法往往是通过调查研究来评估的，调查研究揭示了在采用自动驾驶汽车和支付自动驾驶汽车的意愿方面的人口和社会经济差异。它还提供了有关与自动驾驶汽车相关的感知利益和风险的信息，以及这些感知利益和风险如何影响对自动驾驶汽车技术的支持。最近的研究发现，政治意识形态与人们对自动驾驶汽车的担忧有关，但尚未评估这种联系是否延伸到采用自动驾驶汽车的意图。鉴于我们知识上的这一差距，本文件的贡献是双重的。首先，我们将评估政治意识形态是否会影响采用自动驾驶汽车的意图。第二，我们将评估政治意识形态是否直接或间接影响采用自动驾驶汽车的意图。对于后者，我们将使用路径模型进行中介分析，以评估政治意识形态通过调查受访者对自动驾驶汽车的感知利益和关注间接影响采用意向的程度。我们的研究结果表明，政治意识形态是一个重要的预测个人的意图，采用自动驾驶汽车，其特点是愿意乘坐和拥有自动驾驶汽车。具体而言，与保守派参与者相比，温和派和自由派报告了更高的AV采用意愿。我们还发现，政治意识形态对AV采用意愿的影响是通过参与者对AV的感知利益和关注来介导的。与保守派相比，政治温和派通过更高的感知利益的AV采用意愿。与保守派相比，自由派通过更高的感知利益和更低的感知关注，报告了更高的AV采用意愿。
Autonomous vehicles (AVs) typify the nexus of smart Internet-based technology and prior innovations in transportation. A challenge with AV research is that the technology is not yet readily available for consumers to experience. Thus, public perceptions of AVs are often assessed through survey research which has uncovered demographic and socio-economic differences in the willingness to adopt and pay for AVs. It has also provided information about the perceived benefits and risks associated with AVs and how these perceived benefits and risks affects support for self-driving car technology. More recently, studies have found that political ideology is linked to perceived concerns about self-driving cars but have not yet assessed whether this link extends to the intent to adopt AVs. Given this gap in our knowledge, the contributions of the present paper our twofold. One, we will assess whether political ideology impacts the intention to adopt AVs. Two, we will assess whether political ideology directly or indirectly affects the intention to adopt AVs. As regards the latter, we will conduct a mediation analysis with a path model to assess the extent that political ideology indirectly affects the intention to adopt via the perceived benefits and concerns survey respondents expressed about AVs. Our results reveal political ideology is an important predictor of individuals’ intent to adopt AVs, as characterized by both willingness to ride in and to own AVs. Specifically, compared to conservative participants, moderates and liberals reported higher AV adoption intentions. We also find that the effect of political ideology on AV adoption intention is mediated by participants’ perceived benefits and concerns about AVs. Compared to conservatives, political moderates reported AV adoption intention via higher perceived benefits about AVs. Compared to conservatives, liberals reported higher AV adoption intention through both higher perceived benefits and lower perceived concerns about AVs.
