Book Organizations and Communication Technology

Download or read book Organizations and Communication Technology written by Janet Fulk and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 1990-03-01 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organizations and Communications Technology is must reading for those interested in the relation of communication technology to organizational form and function. The book does what many such collections do not do: It presents in a complementary--if not totally unified--fashion a variety of perspectives on and answers to questions raised about the essential nature, determinants, and effects of the organization-communication technology interface. Such coherence in theme and structure is not accidental; rather, it derives from the editors′ commitment to a robust theoretical foundation in which to ground past and future research. . . . They have succeeded brilliantly in their efforts to focus substantive scholarship on theory building in a data-rich but theory-poor field. The result is a work that will no doubt be a classic. The reader who makes the commitment to mine its essays will not be disappointed. --Journal of Business and Technical Communication "As a summary of the field, this collection of theoretical essays succeeds on two main counts. . . . First, it brings together in one volume writers whose recent work has been widely cited and discussed throughout the literatures of information science, communication, management, and technology studies. Second, the book presents some exciting theoretical ideas about the relationship between communication technologies and social behavior that are applicable beyond the organizational setting. . . . On the whole, this book is a fine overview that updates and lends structure--′organizes′--this evolving literature for a diverse audience." --Journal of Communication "The editors . . . argue convincingly that the study of human and organizational aspects of communications technology suffers from a glut of data and a deficiency of theory. The objective of the book becomes one of starting the process of developing a corpus of theory that will integrate the knowledge we have. Overall, the book achieves this objective well, with the gratifying addition that there are also plenty of practical recommendations of immediate value to the practitioner. . . . This is an ambitious book and given the importance of the topic this is inevitable. It is aimed at a broad range of disciplines. It is unashamedly theoretical in its approach yet contains a good deal of immediate practical importance. My own prediction . . . suggests that this book will be regarded as a milestone from which future progress will be measured." --The Occupational Psychologist "Communications technology offers a wonderful springboard for much broader considerations of how people in organizations and behavior within them. Worthwhile . . . engaging." --Academy of Management Review "Will interest any business communication scholar concerned with the ways organizations are affected by new technologies. . . . Provide[s] a wealth of stimulating ideas." --Journal of Business Communication "Organizations and Communications Technology is an attempt to provide a foundation for theory development on information technology in organizations by delegating the task to a set of competent researchers and theorists. Given the dearth of theory development in the field such a strategy makes some sense. Because of (its) diversity, organizations, communications, and management information systems scholars should all find something of interest." --Administrative Science Quarterly How do technology and organization interact to shape organizational structures and processes? What organizational, political, and social processes constrain technological development? What forces shape the articulation of organizational and technological systems? Answering these and other pivotal questions, this powerful volume centers on the role of theory for advancing our knowledge of communication technology in organizations at several levels: micro, group, and macro. A distinguished team of contributors examines a richly diverse group of topics, including telecommunications, communication networks and new media, the use of group decision support systems, and discretionary databases, to name but a few. Organizations and Communication Technology offers nothing less than a fresh foundation for research and management practice. As such, it is essential reading for scholars, practitioners, and students in the fields of management studies, communication science, organization studies, and policy studies.

Book Communication Technologies  Social Interactions and Campus Engagement

Download or read book Communication Technologies Social Interactions and Campus Engagement written by and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In order to fully explicate the roles of social interactions that occurred in one's daily life through information and communication technology (ICT) use, social networks, and interpersonal communication and one's engagement with an institution in their attitude or perception in terms of the institution, this dissertation aims at establishing an integrative structural model that specifies relationships among the predictors of interest and three institutional attitude outcomes: supportive attitude, perceived university quality, and perceived university experience. The relational structure is based on models and theories relevant to prediction and determinants of the outcome variables. Specially, the model integrated (1) communication mediation models (e.g., Communication Mediation Model and Citizen Communication Mediation Model) that posit communication activities (media use and interpersonal communication/discussion) have potential to promote citizens' civic and political engagement such as participation in community work and political participation (e.g., voting); (2) the Theory of Relational Cohesion and its theoretical model which posit that social relationships (e.g., repeated successful exchanges among networks) are a source of (positive) emotions such as affective attachment, prompting long-term behavioral person-to-group commitment such as gift-giving and contributions as investment; and (3) communication-infrastructural theory that posit social networks-based communication structure is an essential communication process in the development and sustenance of civic engagement. A structural equation modeling technique with observed measures (i.e., path analysis) was used to analyze data and test the validity of the proposed structural model obtained from a survey of 243 university students. The SEM is a statistical procedure that can test (confirmatory) and/or estimate (exploratory) potentially complex causal steps or mediating relationships among different variables (MacKinnon, 2008). In addition, the SEM was selected as an appropriate analytical tool for this investigation because the technique could provide researchers with highly flexible ways to examine those complex mechanisms (Kaplan, 2009). Results indicate that solitary ICT use has various impacts on the institution-related emotional engagement and behavioral engagement, depending on ICT devices (e.g., computer use or smartphone use) and use patterns. As for campus networks, one's campus networks produce a positive impact on the development of institution-related engagement, in general. In addition, interpersonal communication on institution-related issues has positive effects on the development of emotional engagement and behavioral engagement. Finally, both the engagement variables, emotional and behavioral engagement, have positive impacts on institutional engagement outcomes, supportive intention, perceived university quality, and perceived university experience. This dissertation concludes by discussing the implications of these findings and limitations for future research.

Book Sustainable Human Environment Interactions from Scientific  Technological  and Psychological Perspectives

Download or read book Sustainable Human Environment Interactions from Scientific Technological and Psychological Perspectives written by Tien-Chi Huang and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-06-19 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2016, Japan proposed “Society 5.0”, a concept in which innovation and technology are used to solve social problems. The core elements of Society 5.0 include problem-solving and value creation, interdisciplinary skills, diverse opportunities, resilience, and environmental harmony. This concept also highlights the United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which all individuals and organizations need to face. The promotion of the SDGs from a psychological perspective is believed to be beneficial and aligns with the intention of the United Nations. Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) can be examined from a microscopic level to understand individuals' mental processes and attitudes toward them. Investigating the relationships between the SDGs and social and positive psychology can benefit their promotion. Discussing the SDGs from a psychological perspective aligns with the intention of the United Nations.
