Abstract:
This study aims to investigate the impact of social media on small and medium sized tourism enterprises (SMTEs) in China, and to assess factors associated with the adoption of social media by SMTEs in China. Little specific attention has been paid in the literature to the impact of social media on SMTEs and the diffusion of best practices of social media adoption among SMTEs. There are still fewer examples where these themes are explored in the context of China. The original contribution of this research is to demonstrate how social media adoption is taking place in SMTEs in China. Both quanti

Abstract:
Au cours des dernières années, les communautés virtuelles de patients se sont énormément développées sur l'Internet. Ces communautés permettent des échanges fréquents entre les patients, qui peuvent partager des informations liées à la santé dans un environnement interactif. Alors que beaucoup s'accordent sur l'opportunité représentée par ces communautés pour ses utilisateurs, les connaissances sur ce qui détermine l'action collective en ligne des patients ainsi que sur les fondamentaux de l'action collective en ligne dans ces espaces virtuels sont relativement peu développées. En conséquence,

Previous research on social media majorly lies on explaining consumers' attitude and intention toward using social media. However, there are few studies that tried to integrate them from a holistic view and identified possible interactions between relevant constructs.   This study aims to develop a comprehensive framework to explain the effects of antecedents, and moderators on consumers' behavioral inte

Individual and organisational use of social media is rapidly growing. Social media applications offer substantial opportunities for local government organisations to develop better community engagement, save costs and improve service delivery. However, limited attention has been directed in the current information systems literature towards understanding the adoption and impact of social media in the public sector, particularly in local government organisations.

碩士<br>南臺科技大學<br>資訊管理系<br>107<br>Abstract Social media is growing rapidly, posing risks as well as providing opportunities for organizations as it does. The social strategy cone is developed for evaluating social media strategies. This framework comprises seven key elements of social media strategies, based on a systematic literature review and case studies. The results of many interviews have contributed to the construction of the social media strategy cone for analysing social media strategies. So far, most of the research on social media has explored the impact of users' social media usage m

Abstract:
In the fast growing online social networks, one of the most commonly observed phenomena is the diffusion of information contents, behaviors or products through network members’ interactions. In this thesis, I study the diffusion phenomenon by examining the individual-level adoption decision, both theoretically and empirically. In the three essays, I study the effects of the strength of the interpersonal tie and the social network characteristics on a potential adopter’s decision-making, and investigate the measurement of network members’ influences.<br>text

Experts are convinced that, next to globalisation, economies are about to enter the new era of digitisation which will bring massive and disruptive changes for all economic operators. Use of social media may be considered as a first step to digitisation which has the potential to not only revolutionise communication but also all kinds of interactions between businesses and their major stakeholders. Although the level of engagement varies widely, many companies are already using social media as an important instrument for value creation by managing relationships with consumers and busines

Abstract in English, Afrikaans and Zulu<br>The study investigated the effects of social media on mobile money adoption in South Africa and Zimbabwe. The main gap identified in empirical literature is the omission of social media use in technology adoption models and social networking theories. While some theories acknowledge the role of social influences in technology adoption, the social interactions considered therein are not mediated through the internet as is social media. Furthermore, no empirical study has to date focused on how social media influences mobile money technology adoption. T

There is increasing attention paid to the adoption and use of ICT in various disciplines from researchers, for example in e-Government. By learning from the successful cases of ICT utilization on the public sectors of developed countries, developing countries could also investigate the technology more and utilize the potential from it in the development in their own public services.
