About the Special Issue

This special issue focuses on the adoption and resistance of emerging
information technologies (e.g., IoT, artificial intelligence, augmented
reality, virtual reality, big data, cloud computing, and FinTech), which
bring disruptive changes to business activities and individual lives.
Specifically, this special issue addresses the following questions:


1. Do the existing theories of technology adoption and/or diffusion explain
the role of emerging disruptive technologies well? If not, how to extend
the existing theories or develop new theoretical perspectives to fill the
gap?

2. What additional perspectives should be considered besides the
traditional adoption theories?

3. What are the adoption and/or diffusion barriers of disruptive
information technologies?

4. What are the risks of the disruptive information technologies?

5. How do the risks of the disruptive information technologies affect their
adoption and/or diffusion processes?

6. Why are organizations and individuals reluctant to adopt and diffuse the
disruptive information technologies?


Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:


* New theory and perspective for the adoption and diffusion of disruptive
information technologies

* State of the art and new business models using disruptive information
technologies

* Success and failure factors of augmented/virtual reality applications and
games

* Big Data-driven services

* Issues on emerging medical information technologies

* Legal and political issues of disruptive information technologies

* Diffusion barriers of self-driving cars

* Financial Technology (FinTech) services

* Individual, business and social Impacts of disruptive technologies

* The benefits and risks of adopting cloud computing services

* Cross cultural issues related to disruptive information technologies

* The role of disruptive information technologies in creating and
sustaining business ecosystems

More about the Special Issue

With technology use permeating every part of our life, both personal and at
work, the issues related to its adoption have drawn concerns of all users.
Technology acceptance studies have provided valuable insight and been
consistently published in various outlets (Lee et al. 2013). The topic has
also garnered high citation as evidenced the previous papers. As new
technologies are being introduced, we expect that the adoption and
resistance issues will continue to attract user interest. Although existing
technology acceptance theories are old-fashioned, many researchers still
apply the theories to specific contexts (e.g., developing country,
education, and health care areas). However, these theories may have
limitations in explaining the adoption of emerging disruptive information
technologies (Sun, Y., & Jeyaraj, A. 2013). Thus, if we fill this research
gap, many researchers will have better opportunities to develop the related
topics based on studies included in this special issue.
