摘要:Not securing smart home devices has proven a threat to cyberspace. This has underscored the importance of using fear appeals to promote users' information security behavior. We practiced context-specific theorization to enhance fear appeal theory and design. Particularly, we extended Protection Motivation Theory to include avoidant-focused motivation (i.e., users' intent to avoid using their devices), the positive emotion of hope, and information technology (IT)-self extension. Our hypotheses ...

摘要:Doctors and paraprofessionals operate in stressful environments that jeopardize their well-being and quality of care. E-healthcare systems have been promoted by government initiatives (e.g., HITECH act) to support healthcare services. Recent evidence suggests, however, that these systems contribute to job strain. Drawing on findings from a qualitative study and proximity and homophily theories, we integrate the healthcare context to develop and test a research model of friendship network ties ...

摘要:Chief Information Officers (CIOs) influence their firm's strategy implementation and facilitate improved firm performance by effectively managing information technology (IT) resources. However, it remains unclear how firms select CIOs and how the stock market perceives the selection. We posit that firms' preferences regarding CIO background (business acumen versus technical expertise) depend on their strategic positioning. Also, we argue that the stock market pays attention to the alignment be...

摘要:Organizations increasingly depend on information technology (IT) applications (apps) for competitive positioning. Governance of IT apps presents a unique set of challenges, particularly as organizations turn to shared IT apps across business units (IT apps relatedness). Shared IT apps can foment IT misalignment within business units, while also creating opportunities for learning-related synergies. This study develops the idea that an organization's efforts to increase IT apps relatedness infl...
