چکیده
This paper proposes an experiment using GSS in a longitudinal study to develop an appropriation model using structural equation modeling. The study will examine the relationship of the three levels of appropriation along with outcome and decision satisfaction, determinants of system success.

Understanding Fit and Appropriation Effects in Group Support Systems via Meta-Analysis
Many previous papers have lamented the fact that the findings of past GSS research have been inconsistent. This paper develops a new model for interpreting GSS effects on performance (a Fit-Appropriation Model), which argues that GSS performance is affected by two factors. The first is the fit between the task and the GSS structures selected for use (i.e., communication support and information ...
متن کاملProcess restricted AST: an assessment of group support systems appropriation and meeting outcomes using participant perceptions
In an advancement of Adaptive Structuration Theory (AST), Wheeler and Valacich (1996) offer Process Restricted Adaptive Structuration Theory (PRAST) as a means by which GSS appropriation may be assessed. Using an external assessment involving microcoding, they demonstrated in their study that so-called appropriation mediators may enhance the faithful appropriation of GSS structures. We offer fu...
متن کاملAn Organizational Culture Perspective for the Study of Group Support Systems
Most research on Group Support Systems has focused on the study of the effects of features of the technology on processes and outcomes and has conceived of groups as mere collections of individuals (DeSanctis 1993; Kling 1991). However, as GSSs are moving from laboratories to organizational settings, a better understanding of both GSSs and groups is needed (Clapper and Prasad 1993). In this sen...
متن کاملDeveloping a Model of Technology Appropriation: A Marxian Perspective
This paper explores the philosophical origins of appropriation of Information Systems (IS) using Marxian and other socio-cultural theory. It provides an in-depth examination of appropriation and its application in extant IS theory. We develop a three-tier model using Marx’s foundational concepts and from this generate four propositions that we test in an empirical example of IS in anesthesia. U...
متن کاملUsing Group Support Systems to Facilitate the Research Process
Group Support Systems (GSS) and their effects on group processes and outcomes have been an object of intense study over the past ten years. The purpose of this paper is to take a different perspective with respect to GSS research. Rather than discussing research about GSS, we will discuss the capabilities of GSS tools to support the process of doing research. A model of the steps involved in th...
