The existing empirical studies addressing aspects of the stage model have shown mixed results. This might be due to the inability of the existing questionnaires in capturing the essence of the stage model. To provide added perspective, this study adapted Nolan's stage benchmarks to develop and test a questionnaire which seems to better capture the essence of the stage model than the existing ones. One hundred and twenty-three companies participated in the study. The results indicated that the instrument possesses reliability and validity in measuring the stages of IS sophistication. The DP-expenditure benchmark was confirmed to have no discriminating power between IS growth stages. It was found that 1 DP expenditures of most firms grow less than the rate of sales growth regardless of the stage of IS growth, 2 the higher the ratio of EDP/MIS budget to sales, the higher the growth of DP expenditure, 3 a company with a higher applications-portfolio stage tends to have a higher DPplanning-and-control or user-awareness stage, and vice versa, 4 a company with a higher technology stage or a higher DP-organization stage does not necessarily have a higher applications-portfolio, DP-planning-and-control, or userawareness stage, and 5 the composite average of the five benchmarks excluding the DP-expenditure one appears to represent the overall status of an organization's IS sophistication and may be used by prospective researchers as a relative measure to compare stages of IS growth between two or more organizations","PeriodicalId":44735,"journal":{"name":"Information Resources Management Journal","volume":"7 1","pages":"3-20"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"1994-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70476054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was replicated in 1990. Comparisons between the two groups revealed that growth need and motivation potential of the job are not significantly different. Satisfaction levels changed positively -both satisfaction with supervision and pay satisfaction were significantly higher in 1990. General satisfaction was relatively unchanged as was social need. There were gender differences; social need for females continued to be significantly lower. The differences in growth need by gender disappeared, however. Female managers were less satisfied than males in 1990, for all three satisfaction categories. Although growth need and the job's motivating potential were well matched for both males and females on the average, there were cases of individuals whose jobs were not sufficiently rich. An analytical framework is provided for enhancing an individual's job in these cases of mismatch","PeriodicalId":44735,"journal":{"name":"Information Resources Management Journal","volume":"7 1","pages":"5-14"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"1994-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70475402","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The examination is conducted from the perspective of two significantly different models of scientific development. These are the internalist model and the externalist model. Citation data is used to develop a cross-fertilization network of scientific disciplines. The patterns of knowledgesharing among the disciplines are studied. MIS and its reference disciplines are analyzed in terms of the degree to which they remain open to the ideas of other fields. Results indicate that the patterns of cross-fertilization vary greatly among these scientific fields. This suggests that no one model of scientific development serves to describe adequately MIS and its related disciplines. The status of MIS as a scientific discipline is discussed. The authors argue that the multifaceted nature of MIS should be re-conceptualized as progress from multiple directions.","PeriodicalId":44735,"journal":{"name":"Information Resources Management Journal","volume":"7 1","pages":"24-34"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"1994-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70475935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Diffusion of IST over worldwide divisions of a multinational enterprise MNE and its ramifications, however, pose a more complex scenario. Economic analyses have been shown to be insufficient to explain why and how diffusion of technology occurs in MNEs. Cultural and political factors at both the organizational and societal national/regional levels also influence the diffusion process. Is IST a viable competitive weapon in a worldwide market setting? How diverse are the IST needs of the units of an MNE? Is uniform diffusion of IST across the board a necessary condition for the smooth operation and success of an MNE? How does IST diffuse within an MNE? What are the contingent factors that contribute to the differential rate of diffusion of IST across the units of an MNE? This paper proposes a research model to address these questions.","PeriodicalId":44735,"journal":{"name":"Information Resources Management Journal","volume":"7 1","pages":"6-19"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"1994-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70475160","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Logic dictates that a more involved executive generates better IS performance. Further, theory indicates that organizational positioning of the IS department management near the top executive results in a more effective IS department. The relationship between these factors and several dimensions of the IS management process is investigated to compare logical and theoretical expectations with actual practices and results in the information processing area. In a nationwide survey, senior IS managers were asked to indicate the importance to their CEOs of several dimensions of the IS process, the extent to which their CEOs are involved in IS, and how their IS performance compares to that of competitors. Findings indicate that there are a variety of differences between prescriptive theory and actual practice. Although executive activities have a significant impact on several activities associated with the IS management process, executives do not effectively pursue these activities. Moreover, executive support through financial resources appears to promote better competitive IS performance than other modes of executive involvement.","PeriodicalId":44735,"journal":{"name":"Information Resources Management Journal","volume":"7 1","pages":"20-33"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"1994-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70475184","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
