The data used as a basis was provided by a quantitative online survey (n=706). Results indicate that while a (large) minority is opposed to the concept of ATMs with biometrics (28%), an even larger share was positively inclined towards the concept. However, there was no strong preference for a single biometrical approach towards ATMs in the Austrian populace.enAcceptanceAustriaBiometricsATMAttitudesSocio-technological AspectsPublic PerceptionLegal Aspects.Text/Conference Paper1617-5468
