摘要：This research asks whether codes of ethics affect computer abuse judgments and intentions of information systems (IS) employees. Codes of ethics examined include both company codes of ethics and those written specifically to deal with IS issues. In addition, since the intent of codes of ethics is to clarify responsibility and deter unethical behavior, both the psychological trait of responsibility denial and its moderating effect on codes was studied. While company codes did not affect the com...

摘要：Commitment to an information systems (IS) development project is widely believed to affect the eventual success of the system. Problems arising from low commitment have also been described. However, there has been little research on the factors that influence the level of commitment to an IS project. This paper provides some initial insights into the determinants of commitment based on a longitudinal study of an IS project that was stopped and then restarted on several occasions over a 17-year...

摘要：Because organizations seek more innovative ways to compete, the ability of their employees to generate new and valuable ideas becomes a fundamental survival skill. To the extent that computer software might enhance the creative performance of individual users, organizations might ultimately apply such tools to enhance the creative performance of their employees. A controlled laboratory experiment was performed to determine whether two popular creativity support applications significantly enhan...

摘要：We wrote this essay to stimulate IS specialists' efforts to become more effective - and more credible - agents of organizational change. The essay describes what we believe to be a view of the IS specialists' change-agent role that is very commonly held by IS specialists. We believe that this role, while well-intentioned and supported by structural conditions in IS work, often has negative consequences for organizations and for the credibility of IS specialists. Further, it does not fit the em...

摘要：What motivates use of an expert system? Recent studies have found that the anticipated performance benefits of using an expert system-such as increases in decision quality, consistency, and speed of decision making-can lead to increases in expected usage. But is motivation limited to performance benefits? Findings in job design theory suggest that other factors-such as increasing a user's sense of control over a task or making a task less routine-might also have an impact. If so, understanding...

摘要：Organizations often build groups with members from different areas so that a wider range of information and opinions can be considered. When members of such groups share the information they have, the group as a whole can access a larger Fool of information than any one member acting alone, potentially enabling them to make better decisions. This experiment studied groups working an a hidden profile task in which each participant received different (but not conflicting) information about the t...

摘要：Norway's Telenor Research and Development developed and implemented B communication system to support local politicians. The system's graphical interface makes it easy for politicians to make phone calls, set up telephone conferences, and send and receive email and faxes. An integrated document handler supports the exchange of documents between politicians and local government officers. A two-year field trial demonstrated that the system provides useful and effective information technology sup...

摘要：The establishment of linkage between business and information technology objectives has consistently been reported as one of the key concerns of information systems (IS) managers. The two objectives of this paper are: (1) to clarify the nature of the linkage construct, and (2) to report on a project that developed and tested measures of the social dimension of linkage. According to our research, the linkage construct has two dimensions: 1. Intellectual: the content of information technology an...
