Abstract Technology-based self-service is growing at a tremendous rate all over the world, but a strong unifying theory to understand this form of service is lacking. Proposes a comprehensive conceptual framework that incorporates several well-known attitudinal theories to explain the pivotal role of attitudes in influencing intentions and behavior related to technology-based self-service. The framework makes it possible to understand and predict better consumer decisions related to using technology-based self-service by thoroughly examining underlying consumer attitudes. Uses the Internet to illustrate how our framework can be applied to study consumer behavior related to a specific technology-based self-service. Draws on insights from the extant literature on technology-based self-service and also incorporates the many unique characteristics of the Internet that have implications for theory. Discusses practical implications of our model for marketers and provides directions for future research on technology-based self-service in general and the Internet in particular. With its integrative approach to theory, also contributes to the attitudinal literature.
