They are responsible for scrutinizing state institutions. The media, thus, must remain independent of political control and power elites seeking to shape public consciousness. Nonetheless, historical precedents of political censorship and the high concentration of media ownership in Latin America have prevented the media from exercising its accountability duties. Information and communication technology (ICT) has recently enabled alternative media outlets to increase their reach in recent years. In contrast to traditional media, alternative media seek to challenge the status quo and engage in causes of social or political change. By analyzing traditional and alternative media coverage of a social tragedy in Guatemala, this study contributes to the ICT for development literature by showing how alternative media can leverage ICT to create accountability through frame diversification. The concept of frame diversification advanced in this study recognizes the possibilities enabled by ICT for disseminating views that break from the “culture of silence” that has historically permeated the media in Latin American countries like Guatemala.","PeriodicalId":46610,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Information Systems in Developing Countries","volume":"90 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141576742","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}

This study has two primary objectives: (1) to understand how ICT development influences a country's economic resilience during a crisis, and (2) to examine the interrelationships between various country-level ICT development measures. We use multi-year, country-level data made available by the United Nations, the World Bank, and World Health Organization to empirically examine our research model. Partial least squares path analysis is the primary research methodology employed in this study. Our results suggest that ICT development has a positive impact on economic resilience in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, our results specify the interrelationships between individual ICT development measures and economic resilience. This research contributes to the extant body of knowledge on the impact of country-level ICT development on economy by empirically validating a research model that explores the relationships between the various measures of ICT development and economic resilience of countries during the COVID-19 pandemic.","PeriodicalId":46610,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Information Systems in Developing Countries","volume":"90 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141506121","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 interrelationship among the basic constructs of DeLone and McLean's information system success model were also explored. A sample size of 219 mobile travel application users aged 18 years and older and who reside in South Africa was collected using purposive non-probability convenience sampling. A self-administered online survey was used for data collection. An exploratory factor analysis revealed the information quality and system quality dimensions to be a single dimension, which was named information and system quality. The results established information and system quality as a significant predictor of service quality. Information and system quality, involvement, and enjoyment also emerged as significant predictors of user engagement with mobile travel applications, while service quality is not. Furthermore, engagement significantly influences word-of-mouth. The study suggests that service providers of mobile travel applications should consider both the information and system characteristics of an application and the psychological factors of involvement and enjoyment if they are to have a better understanding of user engagement with mobile travel applications. The findings indicate that the modified DeLone and McLean's information system success model could be more applicable to exploring mobile travel application engagement in emerging economies, and could be applied to future related studies in other contexts in order to expand existing knowledge.","PeriodicalId":46610,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Information Systems in Developing Countries","volume":"90 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/isd2.12339","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141386588","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The literature ignores the part electronic government plays in either the regulatory quality-government effectiveness or mobile infrastructure quality-government effectiveness nexuses, despite the fact that existing research indicates that the effects of these factors on government effectiveness vary across nations. Secondary data for 52 African nations was extracted from World Governance Indicator (WGI), Mobile Connectivity Index (MCI), and United Nations E-government Database to empirically investigate the mediating relationship of e-governments using hypothesized model. The positivist paradigm is considered appropriate for this study because it focuses on validating and testing a hypothesized model. The results show a significant relationship between mobile infrastructure quality and e-government development, regulatory quality and e-government development, e-government and government effectiveness. However, there was no significant relationship between mobile infrastructure quality and government effectiveness. Additionally, e-government was found to mediate the relationship between regulatory quality and government effectiveness and the relationship between mobile infrastructure quality and government effectiveness. This suggests that government effectiveness is enhanced when a country is able to develop and implement a good electronic system. The successful implementation of e-governance practices offers better delivery of services to citizens, improved interactions with business, citizen empowerment through access to information, greater convenience, and cost reductions. In addition, establishing protections and legal reforms will be needed to ensure, among other things, the privacy, security and legal recognition of electronic interactions and electronic signatures.","PeriodicalId":46610,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Information Systems in Developing Countries","volume":"90 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140664724","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}

Our approach employs a qualitative study involving interviews with 18 banking professionals based in Indonesia. Our study's findings have identified six DCs based on the TOE framework that can be effectively employed to facilitate successful DT including the technology capability for the technology dimension, strategy, organizational, and innovation capability for the environment perspective, and environment factor consisting of ecosystem and governance-risk management- compliance (GRC). Delving into these six capabilities, we have explored the barriers, drivers, and routines linked with each. Additionally, our study has facilitated the alignment of DT benefits with expected performance outcomes, thus empowering companies to prioritize DT initiatives in alignment with their performance objectives. From a theoretical standpoint, this research contributes by offering an extensive comprehension of the factors and routines intrinsic to DC based on the TOE framework within the context of DT.

Our study is structured as a multi-case study: we assessed how five warungs, to varying degrees, engaged in DT. Socio-technical systems theory guides the data collection via semi-structured interviews and observations. The data is analyzed through codification to look for themes and patterns from the multiple units of analysis. The findings show that the growth mindset of warung owners influences how they solve business problems, ensure operational efficiency, and increase profit. Some create an effective structure in operating their warung by working with their family members. Owners with a high technology mindset successfully learn and adapt the technology. We theorize that kekeluargaan plays a moderating role for the owner where technology-related tasks are concerned. We found that when kekeluargaan is present, it positively moderates the owner's engagement in technology-related tasks. However, when kekeluargaan is absent, the moderating effect is low. The findings extend the literature on DT for microbusinesses with indigenous cultural factors that should be considered to successfully transform a traditional business.","PeriodicalId":46610,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Information Systems in Developing Countries","volume":"90 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140602374","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}

Yet, successful implementation necessitates users' preparedness and willingness to use the technology. Grounded theory was used in this study, which involved eight state corporations in Kenya. Four categories emerged from the data: user attributes, change management, ICT competence, and decision-making culture. The proposed interventions to improve user readiness are top leadership support, user engagement, change management strategies, capacity-building programs, and data governance. The article contributes to literature by exploring the gap between user readiness and use of big data analytics in state corporations in Kenya.
