商品描述

Thirty behavioral theories critically analyzed for information systems research

Researchers and practitioners applying behavioral theories to information systems (IS) need more than descriptive summaries; they need critical evaluation and operationalization guidance. Understanding Human Behavior in Digital Transformation: Theories, Applications, and Critical Insights for Information Systems, written by award-winning information systems scholar Dr. Stephen Treacy, unpacks more than thirty foundational theories through a consistent analytical framework designed for rigorous application.

Each theory receives structured treatment: a clear summary, explanation of key constructs and relationships, intellectual origins, critical evaluation of explanatory scope and limitations, research design guidance, and assessment of common misapplications. Coverage spans influential frameworks including the Psychological Reactance Theory, Social Identity Theory, Cognitive Dissonance Theory, Bounded Rationality, and Escalation of Commitment Theory to name but a few, addressing their intersections and contradictions.

The book also provides:

  • Behavioral theory applied to pressing challenges including AI adoption, digital well-being, cybersecurity behavior, and technology ethics
  • Concrete examples drawn from digital adoption, system design, and technology resistance in real-world transformation contexts
  • Guidance for selecting, applying, and critically interpreting theories in empirical IS research and doctoral work
  • Critical evaluation of what each theory explains and what it does not, including strengths, weaknesses, and common pitfalls

Designed for researchers, educators, practitioners, and graduate students, this book provides the critical depth needed to select, apply, and evaluate behavioral theories in IS research. Its consistent analytical framework makes it a valuable resource for doctoral supervision and advanced study in digital transformation.

三十多種行為理論:資訊系統研究的批判性分析

將行為理論應用於資訊系統(Information Systems,IS)的研究人員與實務工作者,需要的不只是描述性摘要;他們還需要批判性評估,以及理論操作化的指引。由屢獲獎項的資訊系統學者 Stephen Treacy 博士撰寫的《Understanding Human Behavior in Digital Transformation: Theories, Applications, and Critical Insights for Information Systems》,透過一套一致的分析架構,深入剖析三十多種基礎理論,協助讀者進行嚴謹的理論應用。

本書以結構化方式探討每一項理論,包括清楚的摘要、核心構念與彼此關係的說明、思想源流、對解釋範圍與限制的批判性評估、研究設計指引,以及對常見誤用方式的分析。內容涵蓋多項具影響力的理論架構,例如心理反抗理論(Psychological Reactance Theory)、社會認同理論(Social Identity Theory)、認知失調理論(Cognitive Dissonance Theory)、有限理性(Bounded Rationality)與承諾升高理論(Escalation of Commitment Theory)等,並探討這些理論之間的交集與矛盾。

本書亦提供:

• 將行為理論應用於當前重要挑戰,包括 AI 採用、數位福祉、網路安全行為與科技倫理
• 取材自真實數位轉型情境的具體案例,涵蓋數位採用、系統設計與科技抗拒
• 指導讀者如何在實證資訊系統研究與博士研究中選擇、應用及批判性解讀理論
• 批判性評估各項理論能夠解釋什麼、無法解釋什麼,包括其優點、缺點與常見陷阱

本書適合研究人員、教育工作者、實務工作者與研究生閱讀,提供在資訊系統研究中選擇、應用及評估行為理論所需的批判性深度。一致的分析架構也使本書成為數位轉型領域博士生指導與進階研究的重要參考資源。
