Informed by a systematic literature review of studies published in the past two decades, from 2000 to 2020, this research unveils six overarching themes: contextual conditions, technological skills and financial literacy, consistent trust, shaping financial behavior, energizing economic activities, and supporting financial inclusion. Further analysis categorizes these themes into what constitutes the two intertwined dimensions of DFS: foundational conditions and effectual repercussions. We discuss how these dimensions enhance our understanding of the role information and communication technologies play in contributing to human development. We also present practical implications for different stakeholders in the financial sector.","PeriodicalId":51547,"journal":{"name":"Information Technology for Development","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2023-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46900476","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}

Our methodology is based on social support and protection motivation theories. Using a two-phase study with a mixed-methods approach, we firstly conducted 25 semi-structured interviews to develop the research model. The model was then empirically validated using survey data from 285 Chinese senior citizens. The results revealed that senior citizens experienced defense motivation and avoidance behavior when facing technology-mediated services. However, perceived emotional support from a human assistant enhanced their evaluation of coping factors, further reducing their defense motivations and avoidance behaviors. Perceived instrumental support had a greater impact, as it both reduced their assessment of threat factors and enhanced their evaluation of coping factors. Finally, future time perspective moderated the effects of perceived support on threat and coping appraisal processing.","PeriodicalId":51547,"journal":{"name":"Information Technology for Development","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2023-02-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43986680","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}

After accounting for socio-demographic factors (age, marriage, literacy, education, employment, income, and financial numeracy) and other enabling factors (mobile phone, formal identification, and bank account), we found no independent association between gender and MM use in established MM markets in Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda. In contrast, in emerging MM markets (Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Nigeria, and Pakistan), significant gender differences in MM use remained. Phone and bank account access had stronger associations with MM use for men than for women in these MM markets, and gender gaps in MM use increased over time. Findings suggest realizing the financial inclusion potential of MM may require a more nuanced understanding of difficult-to-measure and slow-to-change factors – such as legal and social norms – constraining women’s MM use.","PeriodicalId":51547,"journal":{"name":"Information Technology for Development","volume":"29 1","pages":"228 - 255"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2023-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42797495","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}

Ordered probit estimation confirms that ICT diffusion directly reduces the persistence of poverty in both urban and rural areas. The application of ICT in the banking sector in the form of digital finance has a positive role in rural-urban poverty reduction. ICT has no direct impact on income inequality, though financial inclusion has a positive influence on both rural and urban inequality. ICT diffusion in the banking sector dampens the positive impact of financial inclusion on urban inequality with no impact on rural inequality. Proposed policy prescription can be strengthening of ICT infrastructure with wider and uniform spread of digital finance among rural and urban population so that more people can take advantage of it.","PeriodicalId":51547,"journal":{"name":"Information Technology for Development","volume":"29 1","pages":"378 - 405"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2023-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42735024","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 paper reports on an ethnographic study of a project that sought to formalize street trade in Recife (Brazil). Street trade was presented by the City Council as hindering urban mobility, unhygienic and detrimental to the development of the city. A spreadsheet was developed to record, license and enforce the formalization of street trade. The spreadsheet and its classification scheme expanded the possibilities of control over individual street vendors. We will argue that formalization requires street traders to be rendered objects and subjects of knowledge. What this does is to individualize and discipline street trade. More substantially, we argue that the regulations and classification scheme shaped understandings of street trade as becoming individualized and this led to some contradictory implications for urban street trade.","PeriodicalId":51547,"journal":{"name":"Information Technology for Development","volume":"29 1","pages":"184 - 204"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2022-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44327825","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}

Despite the efforts of several researchers to present models and frameworks for empirical applications based on the Capability Approach (CA), we found a theoretical gap when searching for scientific work addressing the social aspects of ICT applications; more specifically, how to operationalize eParticipation for good governance through CA. Hence, aiming to investigate the potential of eParticipation initiatives to enlarge individual capabilities, we carried out an in-depth literature review. As a result, we propose a conceptual framework consisting of four propositions that can contribute toward how approach and discuss the role of eParticipation to create new synergies between technology and development, addressing the demands of people, promoting participatory governance, and fostering human development.","PeriodicalId":51547,"journal":{"name":"Information Technology for Development","volume":"29 1","pages":"276 - 298"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46148599","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}

We employ a generalized method of moments technique with a panel data of 35 sub-Saharan African countries on the access and use of automated teller machines, mobile money transactions, return on assets, returns on earning, and net interest margin. The results reveal that while the access and use of automated teller machines are negatively associated with return on assets, they have positive and significant effects on return on earning and net interest margin. The findings suggest that information and communication technology adoption affects bank performance mainly in the short run. We conclude that the discrepancy in how it affects return on assets compared to return on earnings and net interest margin is mainly based on how bank performance is measured.","PeriodicalId":51547,"journal":{"name":"Information Technology for Development","volume":"29 1","pages":"406 - 422"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2022-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47310245","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}

Researchers attribute this failure partly to the mismatch between the context in which ICTs are designed and the context of their use. This study aims to understand the interplay between design and ICT4D by (1) making an inventory of design principles across three themes: problem framing, design approach, and team composition, and (2) assessing design statements (distilled from the list of design principles) through a two-round Delphi study with a group of ICT4D researchers and practitioners. The results show that while there is a general awareness of the importance of design in ICT4D, a consolidated effort to investigate how design principles can be more effectively integrated with ICT4D is missing. The study further concludes that there is a shift towards co-designing, that it is difficult to design without pre-determined ideas of using ICTs/emerging technologies and that transdisciplinary collaboration has not yet flourished.","PeriodicalId":51547,"journal":{"name":"Information Technology for Development","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2022-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45101335","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}
