Abstract
The purpose of this research is to survey and interview pharmacists who had experienced biometric authenticators in a pharmacy setting and those who have not, to answer the question, “Why would pharmacists highly consider using traditional authentication systems than biometric systems despite the security issue of memorability?” Understanding the pharmacists’ thoughts, motivations, influences, decisions, and attitudes of using biometric systems may identify possible variables to develop a theory.
