ABSTRACT The study aimed to explore factors that influence the adoption of information technology value metrics in Brazilian organizations, using a non-probabilistic sample of 28 medium and large companies, based on the assumptions of the Neo-Institutional Theory (isomorphism) and the impacts resulting from digital transformation. We used sixteen closed questions plus one open question survey, created from research conducted by large consulting companies and international research institutes, in addition to the very foundations of Neo-Institutional Theory. The data and results achieved allowed us to reach the following findings: (i) prevalence of mimetic isomorphism; (ii) the legitimization of Information Technology as a motivator for communicating the value generated; (iii) the importance attributed to operation and support metrics; (iv) the exchange of experience between peers overlaps with the search for academic sources or scientific research, characterizing normative isomorphism; and (v) the denial of the impacts of digital transformation on the way of measuring the value of information technology. organizations nonprobabilistic non probabilistic 2 NeoInstitutional Neo Institutional isomorphism (isomorphism survey institutes findings i (i ii (ii generated iii (iii iv (iv v (v

ABSTRACT This paper aims to propose a measurement scale for assessing the adaptive competencies of professionals who work in software teams in Brazil. The scale was developed based on adaptability theory ( Pulakos et al., 2000; Baard, Rench, & Kozlowsky, 2014) to address the characteristics of dynamicity, complexity and unpredictability of the context. The construction followed a rigorous process guided by the measurement theory ( Rossiter, 2010; Costa, 2011; Devellis, 2016), encompassing qualitative and quantitative stages, including interviews with 14 professionals, face and content validation by 21 experts, a cleaning sample with 233 students, and a second sample with 454 professionals who work in organizations in the technology industry from Brazil to validate the scale. Through exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, a reliable and validated scale was obtained, consisting of 29 items linked to seven dimensions: Problem-solving, Emotional control, Self-learning, Seeking help, Resilience, Leadership for coordination and Leadership for cooperation. The proposed scale can contribute to enhancing the understanding of professional performance in software teams. al al. 2000 Baard Rench Kozlowsky 2014 dynamicity context Rossiter 2010 Costa 2011 Devellis 2016, 2016 , 2016) stages 1 2 experts 23 students 45 analysis obtained dimensions Problemsolving, Problemsolving Problem solving, solving Problem-solving control Selflearning, Selflearning Self learning, learning Self-learning help Resilience cooperation 200 201 4 20

ABSTRACT The increasing use of e-commerce, stimulated by the period of social isolation given the pandemic of COVID-19, requires accompanying measures, among them, the evaluation of the success of the Information System (IS). A stream of research has been dedicated for over 30 years to evolving / adapting IS evaluation models. This investigation empirically tests the theoretical model of DeLone & McLean (2004); in two distinct periods, before (model 1) and during (model 2) the COVID-19 pandemic. A survey was conducted with 329 consumers of business to consumer e-commerce in Brazil. This research is quantitative and used structural equation modeling to analyze the data. The results showed that, before the pandemic, e-commerce users did not perceive value in the quality of the system's information while, during the pandemic, perceived this aspect as important. That is, they also started to recognize more value in the quality of the system during the pandemic. This was the result of the increased use of the e-commerce system during the period of social detachment. This quantitative study has some limitations. First, the survey was conducted twice, before and during the Covid-19 pandemic specific on the Brazilian e-commerce consumption context. Second, the sample size is limited. The study contributes academically by applying the model quantitatively in a Western context. Furthermore, it has strategic potential, as positive experiences in the IS lead the consumer to reuse it, generating revenue. ecommerce, ecommerce e commerce, commerce COVID19, COVID19 COVID 19, 19 measures them IS. .

ABSTRACT Arboviruses have become a constant concern for public health. The management of this large volume of data generated by the health system is necessary to better understand the dynamics of arboviruses, support public policies in the management of these diseases. Thus, data visualization becomes a promising resource that allows disseminating such information and thus increasing its visibility and use. We developed a dashboard for systematization and visualization of surveillance data on urban arboviruses transmitted by Aedes (Dengue; Zika and Chikungunya) in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, in order to favor its wide availability, accessibility and relevance for data-driven decision-making in health. The developed dashboard has four management panels, each of the studied arboviruses, displayed separately, and the fourth general panel represents the three unified arboviruses. The dashboard became functional and capable of being applied by public health management, presenting useful and valuable information, in a visual and uncomplicated way, to data-driven decision makers. diseases Thus use Dengue (Dengue Chikungunya Gerais Brazil availability datadriven driven decisionmaking making panels separately way makers

ABSTRACT Information systems (IS) exist in order to intensify the information flow within an organization, at all levels, specifically to allow set of data to reach the designated person, in the right format, and at the right time, generating a positive and beneficial contribution to the organization. Therefore, it is essential to investigate their intended purpose and how they affect the organization's effectiveness in particular. This paper aims to investigate two different implementations of information systems in two organizations and understand the impact these implementations have on the respective organization’s effectiveness. We use three antecedents, namely, time-saving, workload, and system reliability, to distinguish users’ perceptions and experience with the system and how they affect the organization’s effectiveness. An interpretative method is used, due to the paradigm’s focus on social constructions and human interpretations to explain reality. The result of the findings shows that the implementation of a new IS has a greater impact on an organization’s effectiveness, compared to an older system that gets updated and add-ons. By comparing diversities between different implementations of information systems, focusing on how the chosen approach affects the effectiveness in each organization, a better grasp, and understanding of an area that lacks research and attention is highlighted.

ABSTRACT Over the past decades, organisations worldwide driven by the growth in e-commerce transactions have been investing in new payment methods in order to gradually align with the current trend of cashless transactions among individuals, businesses and governments. As a result, payments conducted over the internet or cloud-based payment systems (CBPS) have significantly increased. In this sense, the aim of this study is to provide a comprehensive review of studies that used the technology acceptance model (TAM) to analyse the CBPS. The findings of this study found 134 studies conducted between 2013 and 2020, which have applied the TAM. 118 new variables were tested alongside with the 5 basic constructs of TAM. Surveys are the preferred research method of data collection. Users have been the main focus of academics. China was the country with more studies conducted in CBPS using TAM as a research-based model, followed by India, Indonesia, Spain and Malaysia. Trust was the most used construct by academics to investigate the CBPS adoption, followed by perceived risk and perceived compatibility. SEM was the preferred research instrument for analysing the relationship among constructs followed by regression analysis and multi-group analysis.

RESUMO O presente artigo faz uma revisão focada sobre frameworks de Gamificação que podem ser enquadradas numa visão sistémica, no âmbito dos sistemas de informação. Gamificação é o uso de elementos derivados dos jogos em contextos que não são jogos. Nesse sentido, foi proposta uma terminologia que possa ser usada em várias implementações e cenários. É discutida a forma como a terminologia proposta está alinhada com os frameworks dos artigos revistos e a pertinência de usar uma visão sistémica única para futuras intervenções de Gamificação.

ABSTRACT This article is a review focused on Gamification frameworks that can be framed in a systemic approach, within the scope of information systems. Gamification is the use of game-derived elements in non-game contexts. In this sense, a terminology that can be used in various implementations and scenarios is proposed. It discusses how the proposed terminology is aligned with the frameworks of the reviewed articles and the relevance of using a unique systemic approach for future Gamification interventions.

To this aim, a systematic review of the literature has been conducted, supported by bibliometric and Social Network Analysis (SNA). An IS-centric review of trust concepts and research paradigms has been presented along with opportunities for future research.

ABSTRACT: Social media platforms like Twitter have become an integral part of daily life. Twitter is emerging as a powerful digital platform for people to express their emotions and opinions on varied events and issues with the world. Working from home during the coronavirus lockdown is one phenomenon that has affected billions across the world, generating intense debates and polarizing global factions. This study aimed to analyze the sentiments of the Indian workforce about their work from home experience imposed during the coronavirus lockdown. To this end, a total 10,400 relevant English language tweets were collected from Twitter. Sentiment analysis and social network analysis were performed on the retrieved tweets. The results indicated that though the sentiments of the tweets were about consistently distributed among the three principal categories (positive, negative and neutral), there was a predominance of positivity towards working from home due to the coronavirus lockdown. Further, social network analysis of the tweets unraveled varied clusters indicating employee’s sentiments towards the pandemic-induced work from home policy.

ABSTRACT One of the biggest challenges facing technology innovation companies is how to jump from a small group of enthusiasts and achieve mass sales. For this, many theories are extended trying to explain the different behavioral profiles. Therefore, the objective of this article is to analyze the studies on consumer behavior of technological innovations, synthesize the main concepts on this theme, and outline an overview of how this field is configured. To this end, a systematic review, first in the research front and then in intellectual base was performed. The results indicate a dynamic of articles with more than one model or hybrids that seems to be a trend towards complementing the already consolidated factor theoretical models. This fact implies that these theories are failing to accurately explain the factors that influence a technology to push visionary customers to mass demand.

RESUMO O desenvolvimento das tecnologias móveis tem contribuído para a transformação da maneira como os governos entregam seus serviços e, como consequência, o governo móvel ou mobile government impacta a forma como os cidadãos se relacionam com os serviços públicos. Dentro desta perspectiva, este artigo propõe, por meio de uma abordagem qualitativa multi-método, identificar e analisar aspectos de mobile government no desenvolvimento e implantação do aplicativo InvestSUS, no contexto do Ministério da Saúde brasileiro. Com isso, vislumbra-se contribuir com o campo de pesquisa sobre mobile government em países em desenvolvimento. Para tanto, foi realizada uma triangulação de técnicas qualitativas na coleta e análise de dados, que resultou na construção de um framework para análise da implementação de ferramentas de mobile government no setor público. Foram identificadas 19 variáveis relacionadas ao framework proposto, bem como 5 novas variáveis, tais como: transparência da informação pública, controle social, usabilidade, equipe multidisciplinar e facilidade de acesso. Os resultados deste estudo, portanto, refletem uma oportunidade para compreensão do fenômeno de mobile government no contexto do setor de saúde pública.

ABSTRACT The development of mobile technologies has contributed to the transformation of the way governments deliver their services and, as a consequence, mobile government impacts the way citizens relate to public services. In this sense, we propose, through a qualitative multi-method approach, to identify and analyze aspects of mobile government in the development and implementation of the InvestSUS application, in the context of the Brazilian Ministry of Health. In doing so, it aims to contribute to the field of research on mobile government in developing countries. To this end, a triangulation of qualitative techniques was carried out in data collection and analysis, which resulted in the construction of a framework for analyzing the implementation of mobile government tools in the public sector. We identified 19 variables related to the proposed framework, as well as 5 new variables, such as: transparency of public information, social control, usability, multidisciplinary team, and ease of access. The results of this study, therefore, reflect an opportunity to understand the phenomenon of mobile government in the context of the public health sector.
