Principal Component Analyses:
Principal component analyses were performed only on items measuring attitude 
and behavior intention on ERP in Section III. In the data from Greece, three factors loaded from items for measuring 
consumers’ attitudes were named, AORERP (attitude toward organizational ERP), AOPERP (attitude toward 
operational ERP), and AEERP (attitude toward external ERP), respectively. The 12 items reduced to three 
orthogonal factor dimensions explained 51% of the overall variance (
“
AORERP” - 30% of the total variance with an 
Eigen value of 3.68; “AOPERP” - 13% of the total variance with an Eigen value of 1.56; “AEEPR” - 8% of the total 
variance with an Eigen value of 1.12). Three factors loaded from the items measuring consumers’ behavior intention 
in the data from Greece were named in a similar way: BORERP (behavior intention on organizational ERP), 
BOPERP (behavior intention on operational ERP), and BEERP (behavior intention on external ERP), respectively ( 
“BEERP” - 40% of the total variance with an Eigen value of 4.88; “BOPERP” - 11.20% of the total variance with an 
Eigen value of 1.35;
