We study the initiation phase of trust toward an unknown website. We propose three sets of drives of initial trust: relational concepts (perceived value and satisfaction), in individual concept (trust propensity) and a contextual concept (structural assurance). We adopted the quasi- experimentation method for data collection. We have obtained 388 questionnaires. We have used structural equation modeling and we adopted multi-group analyses to test the moderator role of trust propensity.}, }
