This paper reports the results of a systematic review of recent literature on consumer innovativeness. The main purpose of the research is to identify the current research themes, understand emerging themes, and predict future directions in consumer innovativeness research. Previous reviews were either narrowly scoped or needed to be updated. Accordingly, the current literature review may fill this gap in the literature. The study sample is 188 articles published in journals indexed in the Web of Science database in the last decade. Content analysis was employed by using quantitative and narrative approaches. Based on the content analysis, these articles were assigned to five research themes as follows: 1) consequences of consumer innovativeness; 2) antecedents of consumer innovativeness; 3) the moderating role of consumer innovativeness; 4) the mediating role of consumer innovativeness; 5) measurement of consumer innovativeness. The findings showed that the highest proportion of articles reviewed in this study involve research that examines the consequences of consumer innovativeness. New product adoption is the most commonly identified consequence of consumer innovativeness. The next most common research themes were the moderator role and antecedents of consumer innovativeness. Articles in the measurement of consumer innovativeness were relatively rare. The fewer number of articles in the research theme indicates that measurement of consumer innovativeness has been well identified in the previous studies. The mediator role of consumer innovativeness was not common in the last decade. The research themes were examined in detail by providing the variables included in the previous studies and the study findings, as well. The research confirms the crucial role of consumer innovativeness in adoption. Besides, the findings indicated the augmented role of consumer innovativeness in consumer behaviour literature. The results of the research can be useful for guiding future research. Keywords antecedents of consumer innovativeness, consumer innovativeness, content analysis systematic literature review, consequences of consumer innovativeness.

Full textAbstract:
Measuring sustainable innovativeness of farms is a major challenge for both practitioners and academics. This article looks into the need for sustainable innovativeness assessment in agricultural business. To the best of our knowledge, farm sustainable innovativeness measurement has not been investigated in detail and no objective methodology for innovativeness assessment has yet been proposed. The objective of this article is to look into the possibility of using some methodology for measuring farm sustainable innovativeness and thus ranking farms based on this criterion. The article demonstrates the need for a multi-criteria method of innovativeness measurement and substantiates the complex proportional assessment method (COPRAS) as the most appropriate choice for addressing this challenge. The article presents the model of use of the proposed method and describes its practical application. The final result refutes the opinion that farm innovation depends only on possibilities of investing in a certain area. Indeed, staff creativity and the position of the management regarding certain areas of business make an essential contribution to the sustainable innovativeness level in the agricultural organisations.

Full textAbstract:
In the age of globalisation, implementation and commercialisation of new technologies are perceived as key elements determining competitiveness of particular countries, therefore, the growth of innovativeness is seen as the predominant direction of European Union society’s transformation into information society. The aim of the paper is to propose a procedure of measurement of innovativeness growth over time, with the Summary Innovation Index (SII) methodology as a starting point. The considered issue can be expressed by the following main question: how to measure the innovation performance dynamics for a selected group of countries (such as the EU-28, EU-15 or EU-13 countries) and for time intervals (not only for two moments of observations). This is an important inquiry since well-known innovativeness indices (SII, GII, or IOI) concentrate mainly on the provision of information about countries’ innovation performance for a specific year of observations. Due to this fact, changes occurring over longer time periods are rather neglected. The main result of the paper is a proposition of average innovativeness growth index. The index uses weights describing the employment share of a selected group of specialists (e.g.: scientists and engineers, research and development personnel) in relation to the economically active population.

Abstract For decades what has been heated are debates on topics such as: which country is the most competitive? What is the best country to live in?. However, it may be disputable whether results of these debates have practical outcomes. It is arguable whether is it clear what constructs are in fact discussed, how to measure their level, and how to draw conclusions from such studies. This paper addresses aspects relevant to innovativeness - interpretation, measurement, accuracy and practicality. This paper shows that despite of very abundant literature on the subject, the prime tangible effect deals with various rankings of countries for public relations purpose rather than it provides a policy setting directions.

Full textAbstract:
Innovation is one of the most important sources of competitive advantage. It helps a company to fuel the growth of new products and services, sustain incumbents, create new markets, transform industries, and promote the global competitiveness of nations. Because of its importance, companies need to manage innovation. It is very important for a company to be able to measure its innovativeness because one cannot effectively manage without measurement. A good measurement model will help a company to understand its current capability and identify areas that need improvement.
In this research a systematic approach was developed for a company to measure its innovativeness. The measurement of innovativeness is based on output indicators. Output indicators are used because they cannot be manipulated. A hierarchical decision model (HDM) was constructed from output indicators. The hierarchy consisted of three levels: innovativeness index, output indicators and sub-factors.
Experts' opinions were collected and quantified. A new concept developed by Dr. Dundar Kocaoglu and referred to as "desirability functions" was implemented in this research.
Inconsistency of individual experts, disagreement among experts, intraclass correlation coefficients and statistical F-tests were calculated to test the reliability of the experts' judgments. Sensitivity analysis was used to test the sensitivity of the output indicators, which indicated the allowable range of the changes in the output indicators in order to maintain the priority of the sub-factors.
The outcome of this research is a decision model/framework that provides an innovativeness index based on readily measurable company output indicators.
The model was applied to product innovation in the technology-driven semiconductor industry. Five hypothetical companies were developed to simulate the application of the model/framework. The profiles of the hypothetical companies were varied considerably to provide a deeper understanding of the model/framework. Actual data from two major corporations in the semiconductor industry were then used to demonstrate the application of the model.
According to the experts, the top three sub-factors to measure the innovativeness of a company are revenue from new products (28%), market share of new products (21%), and products that are new to the world (20%).

Full textAbstract:
The methods currently used in innovation marketing research are focused on the late phases of the innovation process and are usually methodologically complex. This limits their practical impact. The presented thesis aims to create a simple self-report scale applicable in the initial and late phases of innovation process, highly modular and suitable for wide range of research. The main battery of questions was inspired by adopter categorization by Rogers. The questions determine both (1) general characteristics of innovation adopters and (2) their relationship to a specific innovation. The scale was tested during a robust longitudinal online research, thematically focused on users of modern technologies. Representative sample of 4,000 Internet users in the Czech Republic took part in the survey from April 2013 to January 2015. The result is a new self-report scale measuring consumer innovativeness applicable for prototyping, strategic decisions and effective communication of innovations to consumers.

Full textAbstract:
The advancement of technology imposes an inevitable pressure on companies to introduce new products and services into the marketplace, to stay competitive or survive. One product category that is growing increasingly within the marketplace is Really New Products (RNPs), which refers to very innovative products. Businesses therefore need to be aware of the ways they can promote RNPs in order for consumer to efficiently understand RNPs and form a positive attitude and intention towards these products. This study is concerned with the product promotion element within the domain of RNPs. Various presentation techniques such as telepresence (vividness and interactivity) and anthropomorphic attributes are discussed within this thesis. Furthermore, the influence of targeting different groups of consumers (innovative consumers) is examined. Anthropomorphism is analysed in more depth to get a better understanding of how this factor influences consumers learning and online behaviour. Three papers are formed to investigate each category further. Two online experiments and one survey are designed. The first experiment recruited 800 participants to examine the effect of presentation formats on individual responses towards RNPs within Paper 1. The findings from Paper 1 indicate that various presentation elements have a different impact upon consumer learning, attitude and purchase intention for RNPs. The second set of online experiments within Paper 2 with 500 participants investigated the impact of various anthropomorphic attributes and its influence on consumer response towards RNPs. The result indicates that the inclusion of human-like avatars increases an individual’s perceived anthropomorphism. Furthermore, perceived anthropomorphism has a significant positive influence upon consumer learning, attitude and purchase intention towards RNPs. Paper 3 studied the influence of consumer innovativeness and how consumers differ in their learning and behaviour towards RNPs. 300 participants were recruited to answer an online survey. The findings indicate that various types of innovative consumers react towards and learn about RNPs in different directions. Each paper is thoroughly discussed and the limitations, managerial implications and future research recommendations are considered.

Innovative people seize the opportunity to make lives better and more comfortable, which contribute to economy growth and financial gain. Stakeholders study innovativeness of business students, in depth, to understand gender differences, and the factors affecting students' innovativeness. Literature explains how males and females differ in their proneness to guilt and shame. However, a model that explains the dynamic of guilt, shame, and gender on innovativeness will help make policies to improve students' innovativeness. This study describes factor analysis approach to examine the TOSCA-3 subscales guilt, shame, and the DNA instrument of innovativeness. It also describes the measurement invariance across gender for each construct, and for the full measurement model to identify the differences between genders. Moreover, this study examines the total effect of gender on innovativeness, which includes the direct effect, and indirect effect via guilt and shame. The results indicated that guilt is positively associated with innovativeness, and shame and gender are negatively associated with innovativeness.

Ever since eSports event begin to grow, the audience that watch eSports event is also growing beside the growth of gamers. According to SlidShare 2015 report, in 2017 there will be 76 million enthusiastic eSports audience in Asia, Europe and North America will increase to 46 million audience, and total global audience are 145 million. From the numbers above, nearly 54% are from Asia, and annual growth rate is 20%. We can see from data shows growth rate is rising, and study shows innovation will bring more opportunity for growth rate in sport industry. Therefore, this research will evaluate the innovativeness in Taiwanese eSports environment under the circumstances of steady audience and gamers growth rate. Because the similar kind of research is very less in Taiwan, so this research will only discuss the dimensions that has been discovered in Taiwanese eSports environment so far. Which is player performance, aesthetic environment, fan community and loyalty program, using these dimension to evaluate overall innovativeness in Taiwan eSports environment. The discover result is perhaps to provide useful information to managerial level to make decisions and marketing strategy in the future. In order to retain the audience and attract new audience.

Określenie stopnia innowacyjności charakterystycznego dla poszczególnych regionów nie jest zadaniem łatwym i wymaga zastosowania odpowiedniej metodyki badawczej. Innowacyjność regionu jest pochodną między innymi aktywności innowacyjnej podmiotów gospodarczych, działalności sektora naukowo-badawczego, poziomu kapitału ludzkiego i społecznego czy polityki innowacyjnej. Celem głównym rozprawy jest przegląd metodologii pomiaru poziomu innowacyjności regionów i przedstawienie własnej kompleksowej koncepcji tego pomiaru z wykorzystaniem odpowiednio dobranego zestawu metod statystyczno-ekonometrycznych, a także przeprowadzenie empirycznej weryfikacji zaproponowanego podejścia do oceny przestrzennego zróżnicowania województw w Polsce ze względu na poziom innowacyjności w latach 2005–2017. Najpierw przeprowadzono dogłębne studia literaturowe w celu nabycia wszechstronnej wiedzy na temat innowacyjności, m.in. jej definiowania i wyodrębnienia filarów ją kształtujących. Następnie przeprowadzono badania empiryczne dotyczące pomiaru rozwoju innowacyjności w ramach wyodrębnionych filarów, a także oceny rozwoju województw ze względu na poziom innowacyjności. Przeprowadzono wnikliwą analizę statystyczną potencjalnych zmiennych diagnostycznych opisujących każdy filar innowacyjności w latach 2005-2017. Następnie przeprowadzono wielowymiarowe analizy poziomu innowacyjności województw Polski w latach 2006, 2011 i 2017.Determining the level of innovativeness characteristic for individual regions is not an easy task and requires the use of appropriate research methodology. The region's innovativeness is a derivative of, among others, the innovative activity of business entities, the activity of the scientific and research sector, the level of human and social capital or innovation policy. The main goal of the dissertation is to review the methodology for measuring the level of innovativeness in regions and to present author’s comprehensive concept for this measurement using a properly selected set of statistical and econometric methods, as well as to conduct empirical verification of the proposed approach to assess the spatial diversity of voivodships in Poland due to the level of innovativeness in years 2005– 2017. At the beginning, in-depth literature studies on innovativeness were conducted to acquire comprehensive knowledge about the innovativeness, i.e. its definition and distinguishing pillars shaping it. The next chapters consist of empirical research on the measurement of innovativeness development within separate pillars, as well as the evaluation of voivodships development due to the level of the phenomenon studied. for which a thorough statistical analysis was carried out in the examined period 2005-2017. Then multidimensional analyzes of the level of innovation of the Polish voivodships were carried out in 2006, 2011 and 2017.

This chapter evaluates study program innovativeness based on an ontology-based measurement. It was supposed that topics of papers in leading journals in economics and management can be used as a “pattern of innovativeness” to reveal a connection between innovativeness of top innovative study programs of universities and the subjects from the research articles. The proposed method has been implemented by authors in R and Python languages to analyze the programs in economics and management at the top innovative universities. The proposed methodology has a much wider range of applications than the assessment of the innovation of study programs and can be useful for measuring innovative performance of different aspects of research activities or publications and for identification of the top innovative subjects.

The literature on technology innovation adoption and diffusion is vast. In this chapter, we organize and summarize some of the major perspectives from this body of literature, contrasting various theoretical perspectives on how innovations are adopted and shaped by organizational processes and structure. We first introduce the technology acceptance model, and innovation diffusion theory; and then we categorize viewpoints about organizational innovativeness. Drawing from this framework, for our case study background we introduce adaptive structuration theory, redefining some of its conceptual relationships in “structuration agency theory,” putting primacy on the actions of agents and the means by which they operate through and around institutional structures. We then present a case study example of an expert decision support system, and we conclude with a discussion of implications for managers and entrepreneurs.

Full textAbstract:
The strategic importance of building highly capable information technology (IT) infrastructure has become a crucial management issue of the 1990s and beyond. However, in spite of the numerous benefits attributed to IT infrastructure, these claims remain unsubstantiated. This problem is due, in part, to inadequate conceptualizations of IT infrastructure and its measurement as well as a lack of theoretical frameworks for explaining its impacts. To address these problems, this paper proposes a theoretical framework to justify the value-creating potential of IT infrastructure investments. First, we provide a conceptual framework that describes the nature of IT infrastructure and its related components. Next, we discuss the role of IT infrastructure as a competitive weapon and identify three areas where it may create strategic value for the firm: responsiveness, innovativeness, and economies of scope. For each area, specific theories are used and research propositions are developed to guide future infrastructure research.

The research problem was to determine the relationship between having an action plan related to innovations by innovative enterprises and the type and degree of these enterprises’ use of competitiveness factors. The objective of the research was to identify and assess competitiveness factors in innovative enterprises taking into consideration their strategic plans related to innovation management. For achieving this objective, the following research methods were used: analysis of national and foreign literature resources, survey measurement (observation technique), direct and indirect interview, research tool: questionnaire. The results were analyzed with statistical methods such as arithmetic mean, Mann-Whitney U test, Chi-square test (χ2), and measures of the association including Pearson's contingency coefficient and Cramér’s V coefficient were applied. The analysis of the results showed that the assessment of competitiveness factors such as innovativeness, quality, marketing and logistics activities differed with statistical significance depending on whether the firm had a long-term action plan related to innovations. The research also showed a relationship between competing using innovativeness and having an action plan related to innovations. However, this relationship was not statistically significant. As a result, the research hypothesis can be neither rejected nor confirmed. The conducted research proves that it is worth for innovative enterprises to develop long-term action plans related to innovations. Such enterprises boast a higher degree of utilization of competitiveness factors, which in effect may determine their strength and competitive position. It is also needed to mention that presented in the study results are only a part of the bigger one, concerning the level of innovative activity of innovative enterprises. At the same time, the research material presented in this article does not have a statistical character and cannot be the basis for the formulation of general conclusions. However, it may be the point of reference in in-depth research on these issues
