[AISWorld] AMCIS 2022 CFP - Adoption and Use of Ambivalent Information Technologies Minitrack

Minneapolis August 10-14, 2022
Mini-track: Adoption and Use of Ambivalent Information Technologies
Track: Adoption and Diffusion of Information Technology (SIGADIT)

Ambivalent Information Technologies (IT) are perceived as having the potential to both benefit and harm users and organizations, rendering them a double-edged sword. Ambivalent IT comprises a wide range of IT that we use today; some examples include smartphones that can be both beneficial and harmful for the users, work emails that despite their flexibility and connectivity benefits can be interruptive for the work, and security software or access control tools with benefits that can come at the cost of security and privacy intrusions. As a result, adaptors and users can have mixed attitudes toward ambivalent IT. Currently, there is a paucity of research in the IS literature for this up and coming research area. This mini-track provides a forum for the exchange of research ideas regarding the antecedents, processes, and issues related to adoption and use of ambivalent IT and their potential impacts for users, organizations, and the society.
