This article offers an operating paradigm for renewal along dimensions previously unstressed. The basic contention is that confirmatory empirical findings will be strengthened when instrument validation precedes both internal and statistical conclusion validity and that, in many situations, MIS researchers need to validate their research instruments. This contention is supported by a survey of instrumentation as reported in sample IS journals over the last several years.
A demonstration exercise of instrument validation follows as an illustration of some of the basic principles of validation. The validated instrument was designed to gather data on the impact of computer security administration on the incidence of computer abuse in the U.S.A.ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR<5MANAGEMENT information systems RESEARCH -- ManagementVPAccession Number: 4679540; Straub, Detmar W.; Source Information: Jun89, Vol. 13 Issue 2, p146; Thesaurus Term: MANAGEMENT information systems; Subject Term: RESEARCH -- Management; NAICS/Industry Codes: 5417 Scientific Research and Development Services; Number of Pages: 24p; Illustrations: 5 charts, 4 diagrams; Document Type: Articleb[http://search.epnet.com/login.aspx?direct=true&AuthType=cookie,ip,url,uid&db=buh&an=4679540Iv 19874678914aMiller, J.

MIS Quarterlyn 1991/03//g151 Articlef5n 60MIS Quarterly & The Society for Information Mgt.02767783Measurement issues are receiving increased attention among the management information system (MIS) research community. This increased attention is quite appropriate. The productivity of substantive research activities depends upon efforts to improve theory and measurement development. In a companion article, Jamshid Etezadi-Amoli and Ali F. Farhoomand express several methodological concerns about the measurement of end-user computing satisfaction. Some of these concerns appear to be based upon underlying theoretical assumptions, others are related to confusion concerning the purpose for measuring end-user computing satisfaction or the procedures for developing Likert-type scales. First, one has to identify theoretical issues that guide instrument development. The purpose of the end-user computing satisfaction instrument is explained in terms of the research domain in which it was designed to be useful and its role in that domain. Then, one respond to specific methodological concerns. End-user computing satisfaction is an important theoretical construct because of its potential for helping discover both forward and backward links in a causal chain that are important to the MIS research community.ELECTRONIC data processing MANAGEMENT information systems END-user computing SCIENTIFIC community ETEZADI-Amoli, Jamshid FARHOOMAND, Ali F.eAccession Number: 9604086245; Doll, William J. 1Torkzadeh, Gholamreza 1; Affiliations: 1: University of Toledo.; Source Information: Mar91, Vol. 15 Issue 1, p5; Thesaurus Term: ELECTRONIC data processingThesaurus Term: MANAGEMENT information systems; Subject Term: END-user computingSubject Term: SCIENTIFIC community; People: ETEZADI-Amoli, JamshidPeople: FARHOOMAND, Ali F.; Number of Pages: 6p; Illustrations: 1 diagram; Document Type: Article; Full Text Word Count: 3378id^http://search.epnet.com/login.aspx?direct=true&AuthType=cookie,ip,url,uid&db=buh&an=9604086245 1994 9504033458:3Doll, William J.

MIS Quarterlye 1994/12//s184UArticleP 453 60MIS Quarterly & The Society for Information Mgt.02767783@9This article presents a confirmatory factor analysis of the end-user computing satisfaction index. User satisfaction is considered one of the most important measures of information systems success. The structure and dimensionality of the user satisfaction construct are important theoretical issues that have received considerable attention. Confirmatory factor analysis involves the specification and estimation of one or more putative models of factor structure, each of which proposes a set of latent variables (factors) to account for covariances among a set of observed variables. This study uses LISREL VII to describe alternative models and test the fit of each hypothesized model against the sample data. First, based on logic, theory, and previous studies, four plausible alternative models of factor structure are proposed. Model 1 hypothesizes one first-order factor accounting for all the common variance among the 12 items. Theory as well as substantive research studies using user satisfaction instruments. Model 2 hypothesizes that the 12 items form into five uncorrelated or orthogonal first-order factors (content, accuracy, format, ease of use, timeliness). Model 3 hypothesizes that the five first-order factors are correlated with each other. Model 4 hypothesizes five first-order factors and one second-order factor.INFORMATION resources management LOGIC END-user computing -- Psychological aspects COMPUTER users END-user computing SATISFACTION FACTOR analysis ANALYSIS of covariance<6Accession Number: 9504033458; Doll, William J. 1Xia, Weidong 2Torkzadeh, Gholamreza 3; Affiliations: 1: University of Toledo 2801 W.

Review of literature on the SERVQUAL instrument; Conceptual and empirical difficulties of the instrument; Applicability across industries.ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR A recent MIS Quarterly article rightfully points out that service is an important part of the role of the information systems (IS) department and that most IS assessment measures have a product orientation (Pitt et al. 1995). The article went on to suggest the use of an IS-context-modified version of the SERVQUAL instrument to assess the quality of the services supplied by an in formation services provider (Parasuraman et al. 1985, 1988, 1991). However, a number of problems with the SERVQUAL instrument have been discussed in the literature (e.g., Babakus and Boller 1992; Carman 1990; Cronin and Taylor 1992, 1994; Teas 1993). This article reviews that literature and discusses some of the implications for measuring service quality in the information systems context. Findings indicate that SERVQUAL suffers from a number of conceptual and empirical difficulties. Conceptual difficulties include the operationalization of perceived service quality as a difference or gap score, the ambiguity of the expectations construct, and the unsuitability of using a single measure of service quality across different industries. Empirical problems, which may be linked to the use of difference scores, include reduced reliability, poor convergent validity, and poor predictive validity. This suggests: that (1) some alternative to difference scores is preferable and should be utilized; (2) if used, caution should be exercised in the interpretation of IS-SERVQUAL difference scores; and (3) further work is needed in the development of measures for assessing the quality of IS services.ABSTRACT FROM AUTHORINFORMATION resources management MANAGEMENT information systems QUALITY of service PRODUCT orientation INFORMATION services QUALITY control evaluation measurement service quality user attitudes user expectations IS managementAccession Number: 9708156178; van Dyke, Thomas P. 1 Email Address: tvandyke@weber.eduKappelman, Leon A. 2 Email Address: kapp@unt.eduPrybutok, Victor R. 2; Affiliations: 1: Department of Information Systems and Technologies, College of Business and Economics Weber Stale University, 3804 University Circle Ogden, Utah 84.408-3804 U.S.A. 2: Business Computer Information Systems Department, College of Business Administration, University of North Texas Denton, Texas 76203-3677 U.S.A.; Source Information: Jun97, Vol. 21 Issue 2, p195; Thesaurus Term: INFORMATION resources managementThesaurus Term: MANAGEMENT information systemsThesaurus Term: QUALITY of serviceThesaurus Term: PRODUCT orientationThesaurus Term: INFORMATION servicesThesaurus Term: QUALITY control; Author-Supplied Keyword: evaluationAuthor-Supplied Keyword: measurementAuthor-Supplied Keyword: service qualityAuthor-Supplied Keyword: user attitudesAuthor-Supplied Keyword: user expectationsAuthor-Supplied Keyword: IS management; NAICS/Industry Codes: 514199 All Other Information Services; Number of Pages: 14p; Illustrations: 2 charts; Document Type: Article; Full Text Word Count: 7126d^http://search.epnet.com/login.aspx?direct=true&AuthType=cookie,ip,url,uid&db=buh&an=9708156178 pb 20026938131a60Jiang, James J.

MIS Quarterly 2002/06//T262sArticleA 145i 60MIS Quarterly & The Society for Information Mgt.02767783ngThere has been much debate as of late over the use of the SERVQUAL instrument to measure Information Systems service quality. Detractors argue that the difference score leads to unreliable measures and that the dimensionality and validity is erratic. Proponents argue for the diagnostic power of the gap between expectations and perceived delivery while demonstrating some empirical stability and reliability. To extend the discussion requires the examination of the instrument from the viewpoint of the information system professional. Importantly, a large variety of samples must view the instrument and measures in the same light for the instrument to have applicability. Likewise, analysis of differences between users and providers requires that both populations have similar structural views of the instrument. Empirical evidence collected from information system professionals demonstrated a structure similar to previously published studies with adequate reliability, convergent validity, and discriminant validity. The structure is the same as is found for a gap between users and IS professionals.ABSTRACT FROM AUTHORleINFORMATION resources management QUALITY of service MANAGEMENT information systems MANAGEMENT sciencesAccession Number: 6938131; Jiang, James J.Klein, GaryCarr, Christopher L.; Source Information: Jun2002, Vol. 26 Issue 2, p145; Thesaurus Term: INFORMATION resources managementThesaurus Term: QUALITY of serviceThesaurus Term: MANAGEMENT information systemsThesaurus Term: MANAGEMENT science; Number of Pages: 22p; Illustrations: 3 diagrams, 1bw; Document Type: Article; Full Text Word Count: 6351b[http://search.epnet.com/login.aspx?direct=true&AuthType=cookie,ip,url,uid&db=buh&an=6938131 19894679185oJoshi, Kailash`ZThe Measurement of Fairness or Equity Perceptions of Management Information Systems Users.

This change raises questions concerning customer satisfaction with the online purchasing process. Web shopping involves a number of phases, including the information phase, in which customers search for information regarding their intended purchases. The purpose of this paper is to develop theoretically justifiable constructs for measuring Web-customer satisfaction during the information phase. By synthesizing the expectation-disconfirmation paradigm with empirical theories in user satisfaction, we separate Web site quality into information quality (IQ) and system quality (SQ), and propose nine key constructs for Web-customer satisfaction. The measurements for these constructs are developed and tested in a two-phase study. In the first phase, the IQ and SQ dimensions are identified, and instruments for measuring them are developed and tested. In the second phase, using the salient dimensions of Web-IQ and Web-SQ as the basis for formulating first-order factors, we develop and empirically test instruments for measuring IQ- and SQ-satisfaction. Moreover, this phase involves the design and test of second-order factors for measuring Web-customer expectations, disconfirmation, and perceived performance regarding IQ and SQ. The analysis of the measurement model indicates that the proposed metrics have a relatively high degree of validity and reliability. The results of the study provide reliable instruments for operationalizing the key constructs in the analysis of Web-customer satisfaction within the expectation-disconfirmation paradigm.ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR`YCONSUMER satisfaction ELECTRONIC commerce INFORMATION resources management WORLD Wide WebTY - GEN Accession Number: 7360982; McKinney, VickiKanghyun YoonZahedi, Fatemeh 'Mariam'; Source Information: Sep2002, Vol. 13 Issue 3, p296; Thesaurus Term: CONSUMER satisfactionThesaurus Term: ELECTRONIC commerceThesaurus Term: INFORMATION resources managementThesaurus Term: WORLD Wide Web; NAICS/Industry Codes: 4541 Electronic Shopping and Mail-Order Houses; Number of Pages: 20p; Illustrations: 9 charts, 2 diagrams; Document Type: Articleb[http://search.epnet.com/login.aspx?direct=true&AuthType=cookie,ip,url,uid&db=buh&an=7360982   20027721286n<5Templeton, Gary F.

Sharpe Inc.074212224.The concept of organizational learning (OL) is receiving an increasing amount of attention in the research and practice of management information systems (MIS) due to its potential for affecting organizational outcomes, including control and intelligence, competitive advantage, and the exploitation of knowledge and technology. As such, further development of the salient issues related to OL is warranted, especially measurement of the construct. Based on a domain definition grounded in the literature, this research represents the initial work in developing an empirically reliable and valid measure of organizational learning. The rigorous method utilized in the derivation of this measure, which integrates two methodological frameworks for instrument development, is the main strength of this work. The result is an eight-factor, 28-item instrument for assessing OL, derived from a sample of 119 knowledge-based firms. The empirically derived factors are awareness, communication, performance assessment, intellectual cultivation, environmental adaptability, social learning, intellectual capital management, and organization grafting. MIS function managers can use these factors to gauge organizational or subunit success in the creation and diffusion of new applications of information technology.ABSTRACT FROM AUTHORxqORGANIZATIONAL learning MANAGEMENT information systems ORGANIZATIONAL change BUSINESS planning MANAGEMENT sciencenAccession Number: 7721286; Templeton, Gary F.Lewis, Bruce R.Snyder, Charles A.; Source Information: Fall2002, Vol. 19 Issue 2, p175; Thesaurus Term: ORGANIZATIONAL learningThesaurus Term: MANAGEMENT information systemsThesaurus Term: ORGANIZATIONAL changeThesaurus Term: BUSINESS planningThesaurus Term: MANAGEMENT science; Number of Pages: 44p; Illustrations: 9 charts; Document Type: Articleb[http://search.epnet.com/login.aspx?direct=true&AuthType=cookie,ip,url,uid&db=buh&an=7721286c 19885745296nTorkzadeh, Gholamreza7B
