This article proposes a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) of the models of acceptance and use of technologies with a focus on digital transformation practices applied to human-computer interaction in digital services. The authors analyze the behavior of key influencing factors and develop a taxonomy of acceptance and use factors categorized by economic activity. This taxonomy fills a noted gap in the literature and supports the design of more effective digital services across public and private sectors.
