摘要:The adaptation process for new technology is not yet well understood. This study analyzes how an inter-organizational virtual team, tasked with creating a highly innovative product over a 10 month period, adapted the use of a collaborative technology and successfully achieved its challenging objectives. The study of such a virtual team is especially useful for extending our understanding of the adaptation process as virtual teams have more malleable structures than typical organizational units...

摘要:From 1990 through 1998, First American Corporation (FA C) changed its corporate strategy from a traditional banking approach to a customer relationship-oriented strategy that placed FAC's customers at the center of all aspects of the company's operations. The transformation made FAC an innovative leader in the financial services industry. This case study describes FAC's transformation and the way in which a data warehouse called VISION helped make it happen. FAC's experiences suggest lessons f...

摘要:Extant explanations of why users behave in particular ways toward information technologies have tended to focus predominantly on instrumental beliefs as drivers of individual usage intentions. Prior work in individual psychology, however, suggests that holistic experiences with technology as captured in constructs such as enjoyment and flow are potentially important explanatory variables in technology acceptance theories. In this paper, we describe a multi-dimensional construct labeled cogniti...

摘要:This research investigated how the use of a spatial decision support system (SDSS)-a type of geographic information system (GIS)-influenced the accuracy and efficiency of different types of problem solvers (i.e., professionals versus students) completing problems of varied complexity. This research-the first to simultaneously study these variables-examined subjects who completed a problem involving spatially-referenced information. The experiment was guided by a research model synthesized from...

摘要:Software projects can often spiral out of control to become runaway systems that far exceed original budget and schedule projections. The behavior that underlies many runaway systems can best be characterized as escalation of commitment to a failing course of action. The objectives of this study were to: (1) understand the extent to which IS projects are prone to escalate, (2) compare the outcomes of projects that escalate with those that do not, and (3) test whether constructs associated with...
