Multifaceted Evaluation of Health Information Technologies: The Case of Electronic Medication Management System
$ 70
Description
This book aims to evaluate an electronic medication management system (eMMS) with multiple perspectives, such as user resistance, assimilation, changes in user perceptions, etc. User resistance study indicated that performance expectancy, switching costs, and facilitating conditions are direct predictors of clinician resistance, whereas effort expectancy and social influence showed indirect effects on clinician resistance through performance expectancy or switching costs. The study of changes in user perceptions indicated that most expectations had been positively confirmed in the assimilation stage. More importantly, while performance expectancy and social influence remain important one year after the implementation, effort expectancy and facilitating conditions are moving toward a decrease in importance to the success of eMMS.
