Bringing together both research streams, this study aims to build a knowledge foundation on so-called digital social innovation (DSI). First, by identifying 135 studies in the DSI realm through a structured literature review, we analyse and synthesise their contribution via a theory-based multidimensional framework spanning digital technology, digital innovation, and social innovation. Next, to get a comprehensive overview of existing DSI research, this study provides a research agenda validated by expert scholars comprising 12 clear-cut research pathways for DSI. Our findings guide the advancement of DSI research and enable practitioners to leverage DSI in light of the current societal challenges.","PeriodicalId":13610,"journal":{"name":"Information Systems Frontiers","volume":"49 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2026-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145894761","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study draws on the Computers Are Social Actors (CASA) framework to explore how older adults perceive and interact with anthropomorphized SARs. We present a framework that categorizes these devices into four roles: Carer, Pet, Warden, and Tool. The framework reflects relationship tolerance and autonomy, capturing the varied relational and emotional interactions older users have with SARs. Using qualitative methods, including interviews with 13 older adults in a virtual reality smart home setup, the findings reveal diverse user expectations. Devices like Alexa and a robotic cat align with the Pet role, providing companionship and emotional comfort, while humanoid robots fit the Warden role, offering oversight without attachment. Design implications emphasize customizable anthropomorphic features, enabling devices to adapt to users' emotional and practical needs, ultimately fostering autonomy and quality of life for aging individuals.</p>","PeriodicalId":13610,"journal":{"name":"Information Systems Frontiers","volume":"28 3","pages":"1039-1059"},"PeriodicalIF":6.2,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13400473/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148591441","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, due to the lack of a transparent process, investors often struggle to assess the effectiveness of their investments. Traditional return on security investment (ROSI) can be considered as an economic indicator which reflects investment efficiency, but it often emphasizes investment costs and anticipated returns while overlooks cybersecurity related metrics. This paper proposes the FAIR-ROSI model that integrates five qualitative and quantitative cybersecurity metrics with the Factor Analysis of Information Risk (FAIR) model. It combines practical qualitative and quantitative indicators to enhance the granularity of the traditional ROSI model. We then use a case study to evaluate the FAIR-ROSI model. The results from pre and post control measures shows a narrow margin between actual and projected loss values and a significantly higher ROI compared to the total security expenditure.</p>","PeriodicalId":13610,"journal":{"name":"Information Systems Frontiers","volume":"28 2","pages":"697-712"},"PeriodicalIF":6.2,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13201335/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148042184","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
