This study is based on theoretical arguments, empirical studies, and qualitative research to develop scale of measurement for the construct of trust. Moreover, many studies have only stopped at measuring initial or ongoing trust, but few studies measured both stages to see the impact of trust and perceived risk on buying behavior. The findings in prior research are varied in term of the relationship among perceived risk, trust and buying behavior in the context of online shopping.
