This study investigates factors affecting the adoption of online grocery shopping and online grocery purchase amount based on the theories of innovation classification scheme, food related lifestyle, and product heterogeneity. Using real purchase data from 732 consumer households, logit regression and linear regression with Box-Cox transformation were conducted to accomplish the goals of this study...
The ability to work effectively in teams is a critical learning outcome for engineering students. It is among the ABET requirements and a skill desired by employers for it is integral to innovation, product development, and to a positive working environment. Many engineering courses provide students with opportunities to develop their team skills through projects, in-class activities, and other assignments...
Cloud computing is one of the most prominent technological trends as it allows modernization of healthcare organization. The purpose of this study is to explore the factors that affect adoption of integrated cloud-based e-health record EHR system in healthcare organizations in Jordan based on TOE framework. The study is done by conducting interviews with IT experts in healthcare organization in Jordan...
This paper presents a method of developing an instrument for Cloud Computing (CC) adoption by Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs). To achieve this outcome, this paper firstly evaluates the suitability of Technology-Organization-Environment Framework and Actor Network Theory for CC adoption by SMEs. It then explains how to discover the constructs and their relationships, and subsequently, how...
The DeLone and McLean information systems success model [1, 2] has been investigated in many past researches [3, 4, 5, 6, 7]. However, its use in human resource (HR) field of study is not quite apparent. Based on literature, and recognising that trust is a significant component in managing human resources and in successful implementation of information systems, this research posits the integration...
Living Labs are a new-born user-centred design approach. It's distinguished from the others by four principles — realism, spontaneity, continuity and empowerment — which represent the ‘living’ dimension of Living Labs but which are difficult to realise practically. This article proposes a list of hypotheses to reach these principles and focuses on how to develop four of these hypotheses at an operational...
The objective of this research is to study the antecedents of technology trust and its perceived consequences. The purpose is first to find potential factors behind the technology trust, evaluate their significance empirically, and then assesses the relationship between technology trust and perceived performance. Special attention is given to the behavior of technologists, people who have technological...
Knowledge integration mechanisms have increasingly been considered a key predictor of product innovation, yet some central issues related to them remain ambiguous. This study draws upon the perspectives from familiarity trap to argue a curvilinear relationship between knowledge integration mechanisms and product innovativeness. A sample of 140 product development projects from manufacturing firms...
This study reviews the effects of strategy orientation and synergy on new product performance using a meta-analytic approach. Based on empirical studies published before 2011, this study reveals interesting findings. First, the bivariate correlations show that market orientation and technological synergy are identified as the dominant drivers of new product performance. Second, moderator regression...
Virtual Communities for Innovations (VCI) are becoming increasingly popular as platforms for firms to engage customers in generating new ideas. While several studies have explored the various motivations of user participation in VCI, the relationship between the motivations and the outcome of interest - the quality of the ideas - has not been explored. Scholars and practitioners have a strong interest...
This research coalesces three different approaches to consumer''s adoption of new technology-based service into an integrative model. We use the basic framework of TAM and supplement technology readiness and perceived risk to the model to better address the consumer adoption context. The model is tested with data from 343 web surveys regarding RFID credit card adoption. Results show that technology...
Based on literature review, this study proposed three hypotheses about learning culture and individual innovative behavior. The model was validated in structural equation modeling by investigating 391 employees from 46 organizations. The results indicate that individual learning has positive effects on innovative idea generation, organizational learning has positive effects on both innovative idea...
Entrepreneurial orientation (EO) is an emerging research area across the field of entrepreneurship and strategic management. On the leading edge of EO research are issues of conceptualization and measurement. This paper clarifies the EO conceptualization from two debates among current EO scholars. One is debate on whether EO should discuss from the perspective of individual-level or from firm-level,...
