Given the importance of credibility in computing products, the research on computer credibility is relatively small.

To promote further research, we then offer two perspectives on what computer users evaluate when assessing credibility. We conclude by presenting a stt of credibility-related terms that can serve in future research and evaluation endeavors. Keywords What is credibility ?
