Abstract/Summary:
IT infusion has been the subject of scant research and existing studies have been largely at the organization level of analysis. This research examines the role of individual motivation as a determinant of IT infusion at the individual level of analysis. A model is developed that synthesizes work motivation, social cognition, and attitude/behavior theories and that explains the affect of motivation on the relationship between work process reconceptualization (WPR) and IT infusion. The dimensions of WPR and their relationship to IT infusion are also examined.; The results support the effect of the interaction of Consequence Expectancy and Consequence Valuation, Personal Expectancy, and Enactment Cost Expectancy upon Individual Motivation Toward Work Process Reconceptualization Enactment. Post Hoc analysis also shows the direct effect of Consequence Expectancy, Environmental Expectancy and Personal Expectancy upon Behavioral Intent. Motivational States are discussed and Dissonance States are examined.
