________ are the last in the population to adopt a new product.

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

In diffusion of innovations, the group that adopts last are the laggards. This option aligns with the established categorization where laggards are resistant or slower to adopt and only do so after the majority, often due to skepticism or limited resources.
Option 1: 'Shirkers' is not a standard term in the diffusion framework and would imply avoidance or evasion, which is not the recognized label for the final adopters.
Option 2: 'Late majority adopters' refers to the group that adopts after the early and majority groups but before the laggards; they are not the very last to adopt, so this option misplaces them in the sequence.
Option 3: 'Dawdlers' is not a formal category used in diffusion of innovations literature, and using it would reflect an informal or nonstandard label.
Option 4: 'Slackers' suggests laziness rather than a defined stage in adoption theory, making it inaccurate in this structured typology.
Option 5: 'Laggards' correctly designates the final segment in the adoption curve, typically characterized by resistance to change and a late entry into adoption.
