Abstrakt: In the last decade, several studies have employed unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) in different countries. Additionally, a quantitative meta-analysis was conducted of prior studies on the UTAUT in an attempt to make well-grounded statements of previous relationship results. Also, the UTAUT results were compared by regarding of country, year and results. The finding of this study confirms that same theory and same variables have different results in different countries with different cultural background. Therefore, owing to the inconsistency of the results among the UTAUT variables, there is a need to test and examine the variables in different environment such as unstable environment (conflicts and violence environment).
