Information Systems Theories for Student Researchers and Practitioners

Abstract

This comprehensive book delves into diverse information systems (IS) theories, models, and frameworks, providing a profound understanding of their constructs, assumptions, and measurable variables. Through an IS and management perspective, it examines strengths and weaknesses, while addressing criticisms and potential revisions. By uncovering gaps in current theories, the book guides readers in conceptualizing research frameworks to address them. Readers will gain critical skills to evaluate and elucidate IS theories, unravel practical implications, and assess their usefulness to managers. This invaluable resource equips readers with techniques to identify theoretical gaps and lay the groundwork for new studies. Though the theories presented in this book are not exhaustive, they will be of help to researchers, both the experienced ones as well as the budding ones, and most importantly students
