The research was based on a meta-analytical literature review. The type of sampling was intentional by conducting two searches: the first with the use of two keywords "E-commerce and Electronic Commerce" yielding a total of 537 scientific articles and the second with three key words "E-commerce, Electronic Commerce e -commerce adoption ", identifying 13 publications for further analysis.
