This article defines consumer innovativeness and describes its measurement, dimensions, and demographic and category correlates. The development of a self-report scale to measure domain specific consumer innovativeness is described. A major problem faced by researchers interested in the diffusion of innovations has been the difficulty in measuring the inno vativeness construct in a reliable and valid way. Innovativeness can be measured as a behaviour, as a global personality trait, and/or as a domain-specific personality trait (Goldsmith and Foxall, 2003; Salari and Shiu 2015). Consumer innovativeness has been conceptualized in two main streams: "Innate Innovativeness" and "Actualized Innovativeness" (Midgley, 1977, cited in Roehrich, (2004) p.672). The Asia - Pacific regions has begun to attract attention. Specifically, this research examines the relationship between consumer innate innovativeness, domain specific innovativeness, vicarious innovativeness, the desire for unique consumer products and the adoption of "really new" consumer electronic products in Australia, China and Taiwan.

This article defines consumer innovativeness and describes its measurement, dimensions, and demographic and category 12 constructs and 60 items to measure innovativeness. With the help of four sequential pre-tests in four different countries, the authors then pared down this bank of items to an 11-item scale for consumer innovativeness. The authors took care to account for acquiescence, dis-acquiescence, extreme responses, midpoint re- The nature of innovativeness, and its relationship to adoption, are explored in this article.

Dowling, Innovativeness: The Concept and Its Measurement, Journal of Consumer Research, Volume 4, Issue 4, March 1978, Pages 229 The researchers proposed and validated a scale, the Motivated Consumer Innovativeness (MCI), which measures the motivation of people to use and buy innovations. Accordingly, the present work is aimed at supplying an ini- tial Italian validation of the MCI scale in an attempt to confirm its factor structure, reliability, and general usability.

One example often used to measure innovativeness (Chesson, 2002, Steenkamp et al., 1999) is Baumgartner and Steenkamp's (1996) Exploratory Consumer Buying Behavior scale. One of their subscales is Exploratory Acquisition of Products, which refers to buying innovations Choosing between models 1 and 2 is the first of two steps in developing a theory of consumer perception of innovativeness.
