[AISWorld] CfP Pre-ICIS DIGIT 2014 Workshop - Deadline in one week

*DIGIT 201**4**Call for Papers*

*Reflection and Looking Forward: A Journey of 25-Year Technology 
Adoption and Diffusion Research*

In 1989, technology acceptance model was first published to predict user 
acceptance of computers. Over the past 25 years, this influential 
theoretical model has been extensively applied, modified and discussed 
regarding its antecedents, contingency variables and constructs 
refinements. In this workshop, we would like to invite papers to reflect 
on and move forward from the dominant stream of research work on 
technology acceptance. In particular, new technological developments 
such as social media, cloud computing and mobile technologies have 
offered innovative opportunities to enable new forms of organizational 
change and user experiences. At the same time, these new technologies 
can be also disruptive in challenging the existing organizational 
practices. Furthermore, we see the boundary of technology adoption and 
diffusion has greatly moved beyond the individual and organizational 
level. The implications of technology use and adoption are now seen at 
the industry, national and global level. Therefore, the combination of 
these developments provides scholarly opportunities to discuss 
theoretical implications of technology acceptance research and identify 
the venue where new theoretical underpinnings might be required to 
strengthen our understanding of how individuals or organizations adopt 
and use information systems.

While papers adhering to the theme are encouraged, research in other IT 
adoption and diffusion research domains will also be considered. 
Potential topics areas include (but are not exclusive to):

?Technology adoption and diffusion at the interorganizational, national 
and global level

?Extension of technology acceptance model for new innovation technologies

?New theoretical development in technology acceptance research

?Acceptance vs. resistance to new technologies

?Dark side of technology adoption

?Methodological issues regarding technology adoption and diffusion

In the interest of discussing the most current research in this area, 
research-in-progress papers are encouraged as well as full research 
papers. Submitted research can be conceptual, analytical, 
design-oriented, or empirical in nature.

The workshop will include paper roundtables, panel discussions and 
poster presentations. This year, our honorable panel membersofseniorIS 
scholarswilldiscuss about what we have learned from a quarter century of 
IS adoption and diffusionresearch and what we can do in future. Faculty 
members and doctoral students are encouraged to attend and submit papers 
for roundtable discussion and poster session. Doctoral students 
submitting papers to the conference will be eligible for a workshop 
scholarship that covers the DIGIT registration fee**.

*Instructions for Contributors***

All submissions will be blind reviewed. Papers should not have been 
published previously in proceedings or journals, nor be under review 
elsewhere, but it is the general objective of the workshop that they 
will be submitted to a premier outlet after the DIGIT workshop. At least 
one author must register and attend the workshop to present the paper if 
the work is accepted._The workshop date will be Sunday, December 14, 2014. _

All papers should be double-spaced and submitted in Microsoft Word 
format. Research-in-progress papers are limited to ten double-spaced 
pages. Research papers are limited to twenty double-spaced pages. Both 
types of submissions should include an abstract. Page counts exclude 
references. The title page (exclusive of the page counts) should include 
the paper title and the authors' names, affiliations, and e-mail 
addresses. The main body of the paper should have a title, but no author 
identification._The deadline for submission of papers is __Sunday__, 
August __31__, 2014._Notification of acceptance or rejection will be 
made in late October.

This year, all paper submissions should be sent electronically as a 
Microsoft Word attachment to _digit.workshop at gmail.com_. Questions 
regarding paper submissions should be directed to the program chair 
Carol Hsu at(_carolhsu at ntu.edu.tw <mailto:carolhsu at ntu.edu.tw>_).
