<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_Hlk131204402">We investigate the factors influencing knowledge workers’ intention to adopt ChatGPT in the workplace. Using technology affordance and constraints theory, along with focus group discussions, we identify
three ChatGPT affordances (i.e., automatability, information quality, and productivity) and two constraints (i.e., perceived risk and lack of regulation) for early-stage users. Using a survey approach, we examine how these affordances and constraints influence
the psychological perceptions of ChatGPT, which in turn affect adoption intention. We also explore the role of personal innovativeness and organizational innovation culture in moderating the effects on adoption intention. Our findings indicate that the three
ChatGPT affordances positively influence perceptions of ChatGPT’s effectiveness, whereas the lack of regulation is a constraint that increases discomfort with using ChatGPT. Furthermore, personal innovativeness enhances the positive effect of perceived ChatGPT’s
effectiveness on adoption intention and mitigates the negative impact of discomfort with using ChatGPT. This study provides valuable insights and implications for generative AI researchers and managers seeking to effectively leverage ChatGPT in the workplace.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_Hlk131204402"><span lang="EN-AU">While the widespread adoption of smartphone and tablet devices has led to a rapid proliferation of mobile apps, these apps seldom feature user interfaces geared towards older users
(i.e., 60 years and older). In this paper, we report on a scoping review that we conducted to investigate what design considerations researchers consider when developing mobile apps for older users. Structured along the transmission model of communication,
we conceptualize users’ interaction with mobile apps as a bidirectional communication process that involves source, transmitter, receiver, and destination. Building on this conceptualization, we synthesize the considerations that the reviewed studies applied
in their mobile app design for older users and provide design guidelines in the form of a practical checklist for system developers. Our findings provide important insights into the challenges that researchers encounter when designing mobile apps for older
users and how they can address these challenges</span></span><span style="mso-bookmark:_Hlk131204402">.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_Hlk131204402">The inability to assess borrowers' default behavior severely threatens the development of micro-lending platforms. Call activity and online social activity, as important components of soft information,
have great potential for assessing borrowers’ default risk. Although a wealth of literature on microfinance explores the relationship between borrowers' call activity and default behavior, few studies have focused on borrowers' online social activity and combined
the two types of information to assess their default risk. This study explores the impact of borrowers' call activity (call activity frequency and call activity stability) and online social activity (online social activity frequency and online social activity
stability) on the default behavior of borrowers on micro-lending platforms based on bonding and bridging capital in social capital theory. We collected 154,579 loan records from 10 micro-lending platforms in Indonesia as research data, constructed an empirical
research model to verify our hypotheses, and used multiple robustness tests to demonstrate the consistency of the results. The empirical results show that call activity frequency and call activity stability have a significant negative impact on default behavior.
In contrast, online social activity frequency and online social activity stability have a significant positive impact on default risk. Our results not only contribute to social capital theory and relevant research on microfinance but also provide practical
insights for improving the credit assessment model of micro-lending platforms.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_Hlk131204402">In recent years, smart healthcare systems (SHS) spurred by the Internet of things have revolutionized how people manage their health. Despite their numerous benefits, SHS still face many challenges
worldwide, including limited user motivation. This study builds on the valence-instrumentality-expectancy theory to examine the motivational factors influencing the use of SHS, while also considering the moderating role of social support. We conducted two
studies—one in the United States and the other in Qatar—to assess how well the proposed model applies across different cultural contexts. Our findings show that the model explains users’ motivations to use SHS and the interdependencies between the valence–instrumentality–expectancy
theory and factors like social support, self-efficacy, and trust in the system. Moreover, we highlight the significance and implications of cultural differences in the model. This study is among the first to investigate the motivational factors behind SHS
use through cross-cultural samples, offering valuable insights for global SHS providers.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
