While existing theories emphasize purely rational and goal-oriented factors in terms of information technology (IT) continuance intention, this research examines how users' EA toward technology impacts their continuance intention in the absence of cognitive and habitual factors.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-subheading\">Design\/methodology\/approach<\/jats:title><jats:p>This study contextualizes attachment theory from the social psychology\/consumer psychology literature to an IT application and formulates and tests a new model that is proposed in the context of IPA continuance.

This work contributes to the theoretical understanding by investigating IPA continuance intention in the absence of cognitive or habitual factors and fills a critical research gap in IT post-adoption literature. IPA is just one example of technologies to which individuals can form attachments and this research provides an important foundation for future research by positing and testing the value of EA in IT post-adoption behavior. This research also contributes to practical knowledge by inferring that IPA manufacturers, managers and vendors could extend their revenue streams by integrating product features that capture emotion.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1108\/itp-09-2020-0643","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,13]],"date-time":"2022-04-13T11:49:57Z","timestamp":1649850597000},"page":"867-894","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":24,"title":["The
