ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY

Agarwal, R. & Karahanna, E. (2000). Time flies when you’re having fun: Cognitive absorption and beliefs about information technology usage. MIS Quarterly, 24(4), 665– 694.

The use of technology involves behavior. Behaviors also are varied depending on culture and many other factors. This study will, therefore, consider the aspect of behavior about the use of information technology system. I will use this study to give extant explanations on the reason to why there is a behavior of users towards information technologies. These include behaviors that are focused on instrumental beliefs predominantly as the drive of individual usage. It reveals works done in individual psychology suggesting that experiences that are holistic with technology are important variables that explain technology acceptance theoretically.

Agarwal, R. & Prasad, J. (1997). The role of innovation characteristics and perceived voluntariness in the acceptance of information technologies. Decision Sciences, 28(3), 557–582.

This study will help me in identifying paradoxical relationship that exists between productivity gains and investment in information technology. It will be helpful as it will outline how the relationship is attributed to a lack of acceptance by the user of innovations of information technology. There have been researches that have tried to predict and explain the user acceptance. This study will also be based on these researches to evaluate the user acceptance of information technology innovations.

Agarwal, R. & Prasad, J. (1998). A conceptual and operational definition of personal innovativeness in the domain of information technology. Information Systems Research, 9(2), 204–215.

The issue of acceptance of new information technologies by the people intended to use them is an important issue for those who study and practice information technology. This is important because if it is not accepted, it will not be used and innovation will not be appreciated. Businesses have been adopting innovation on information technology of different kinds to enhance their performance which is aimed at increasing productivity. Business intelligence system is also technology oriented, therefore, this study will be helpful in evaluating the acceptance of innovative technologies by businesses.

Ajzen, I. (1991). The theory of planned behavior. Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, 50(2), 179–211.

This study will be on utilization of intelligence system. Utilization involves the behavior of the users either in accepting or using. This study will help in giving a background of the theories of planned behaviors. I will be able to use this study to identify some of the unresolved issues of planned behavior. It will help me in evaluating if the intentions to perform a behavior of many kinds is predictable using accuracy from attitudes, control, and norms.

Alvesson, M. & Karreman, D. (2007). Constructing mystery: Empirical matters in theory development. Academy of Management Review, 32(4), 1265-1281.

This study will need the use of a well-developed research methodology. From this study, it will be possible to identify the elements through which it will make it possible to develop the methodology. The methodology discussed in this study is the active creation of mysteries and subsequent solving of those mysteries. I will, therefore, use this study to develop my methodology and define my data for this case and find out systematics in deviations if exist.

Amoako-Gyampah, K. & Salam, A. F. (2004). An extension of the technology acceptance model in an ERP implementation environment. Information & Management, 41(6), 731– 745.

Implementation of the technology acceptance is the model I will adopt in this study, and therefore I will be required to present where the model has been successfully applied in the same environment. I will use this study to present an extension of technology acceptance model and do the empirical examination in an enterprise resource planning environment of implementation. This will help me in evaluating the impacts of one belief construct and two widely technology implementation success factors that are recognized.

Avison, D. & Malaurent, J. (2007). Impact of cultural differences: A case study of ERP introduction in China. International Journal of Information Management, 27(5), 368–374.

Because different cultures attribute different behaviors, this study will help me to find out how culture impacts the utilization of this technology. It will also be of importance as it provides solutions for implementing these applications at the global level. This is because the global economy that businesses operate in are implementing such applications. With the implementation of this innovation, a company will be to control and manage all its processes at all sites.

Bandura, A. (1986). Social foundations of thought and action: A social cognitive theory. NJ: Prentice Hall, Engelwood Cliffs.

Because this study will be based on the behavior of users of this technology, theories of behavior are vital to this study. I will use social cognitive theory as discussed by Bandura in evaluating the behaviors of the users in my study. I will be able to use this study to find out the essence of humanness that is characterized by features operating through functional and phenomenal consciousness.

Baxter, R. J. & Berente, N. (2010). The process of embedding new information technology artifacts into innovative design practices. Information and Organization, 20(3- 4), 133-155.

I will need to review the design and creation of innovative technologies. This requires the creation of knowledge which in turn depend on introducing the innovative information technology. I will be able to migrate practice-based knowledge to information technology artifacts that are unfamiliar. I will use this study to help me explore the challenges associated with this migration as provided by Baxter and Berente.

Benbasat, I. & Barki, H. (2007). Quo Vadis, TAM? Journal of the Association for Information Systems, 8(4), 211–218.

Because I will be using the Technology Acceptance Model for this study, the study of Benbasat and Barki will be of great importance as it will give the background information of the application of Technology Acceptance Model. I will be able to use this study to identify the significant contribution of this model and its focus. I will try to expand the Technology Acceptance Model to adopt it to my study and apply it appropriately.

Bilandzic, M., Knebel, U. & Weckenmann, D. (2008). Technology acceptance research – current development and concerns. 2nd Workshop on Information Systems and Services Sciences 2008 (2nd WISSS 08), Germany, Munich.

My study will require presentation of some researchers that has been done on the acceptance of the technology. It will also be required to identify from the researches the current development and concerns that have been discussed in these researches. This will provide a basis for discussing the results that I will get from this study and will help me to make appropriate conclusions based on the research questions.

Bradley, R. V., Pridemore, J. L. & Byrd, T. A. (2006). Information systems success in the context of different corporate culture types: An empirical investigation. Journal of Management Information Systems, 23(2), 267–294.

The success of information system in different cultural types needs literature for more information. I will use this study to draw my literature on the success of information systems in the context of artistic types. I will be able to identify high-quality information technology plans that lead to the success of information technology system. Using this study, I will be able to draw empirical studies that I will use as a comparison to my study. This will help me in making conclusions of the study.

Bronzo, M., Vliela de Resende, P. T., Valadares de Oliviera, M. P., McCormack, K. P., de Sousa, P. R. & Lopes Ferreira, R. (2013). Improving performance aligning business analytics with process orientation. International Journal of Information Management, 33(2), 300-307.

This study will provide a background information on how to align business analytics together with the process orientation initiatives and how management is influencing synergistic accomplishment of the two elements. This is because the performance of the organization is supposed to be streamlined by the organization. I will use quantitative research effort which was used in this study to design and investigate the relationships between these constructs.

Burton-Jones, A. & Straub, D. W. (2006). Reconceptualizing system usage: An approach and empirical test. Information Systems Research, 17(3), 228-246.

System usage is a key variable in this research. In other researches, it has received little theoretical scrutiny, and it does not have a widely-accepted definition. This study will help me to reconceptualize the system usage construct in various contexts. The main context being the different corporate cultures. By using this study, it will be possible to bridge the research gap that exists from these empirical studies on system usage.

Burton-Jones, A. & Grange, C. (2013). From use to effective use: A representation theory perspective. Information Systems Research, 24(3), 632-658.

To obtain maximum benefits of the information technology, it must be used effectively. There have been very little researches examining the what effective system use involves and what drives it. Many types of research have been focusing on when and why information systems are used. There must be a transition from the use of a system to effective use. This requires an understanding of the nature of the system and its purpose which calls for theory of information system. This study will borrow the presentation theory as used by Burton and Grange to develop the transition from use to effective use of information system.
