Highlights:

• Trust and risk both had significant effects on individual behavior toward SMPs.

• Trust had a stronger effect on individual behavior toward SMPs than risk.

• Moderating effects of trust objects and platform types were found.

• The moderating effect of culture was not supported by the meta-analysis.

• Measurements of trust and risk in the previous IS research were summarized.
