The construct of information systems use benefits: Theoretical explication of its underlying dimensions and the development of a measurement scale

作者:

Highlights:

• Drawing from the ERG theory (ERG stands for Existence, Relatedness, Growth; Alderfer, 1972), Job Characteristic Theory (JCT; Hackman & Oldham, 1975; 1976) and other theoretical perspectives, we develop a theory-based TJW framework: Task performance, Job interaction, and Work enrichment to measure IS Benefits for Individuals (ISBI).

• With a sample of 231 responses from business professionals, the validities of the ISBI construct were established. A partial test of the IS success model was conducted with the ISBI measure and a measure of the overall IS use.

• This study has succeeded in developing and validating theory-based multidimensional measures for ISBI, and applying it to test a part of the IS success model. Further, we expended the context of the IS success model to the overall IS and the different types of IS it includes, rather than a single system as in previous studies.
