Hi everyone,
- what is the effect of ( "non-technical, or “soft factors”, such as culture, needs of individuals, habits and emotions)on methodology acceptance by individual?
- I would be grateful if you could suggest and introduce me more resources on soft factors and the effect of them on methodology acceptance.
- And if we want to focus on " soft factors and individual acceptance" thorough methodology we should utilize "People-oriented methodology" like ETHICS?
Fatemeh Chelongar one way of taking soft factors into account can be by looking at the following three: 1. Recognition: Do the participants feel the research is relevant, recognizable, understandable, in accords with their situation? 2. Pragmatic/funcktion: Do the participants think the research will «work»? 3. Benefit: Do the participants think the research will fasilitate long term benefit for those involved? Plato talks about this in regards to education in Laws Book II. Also Kurt Lewin points to the value of knowledge creation to what makes the situation and relations a little better for those involved. I can elaborate if this is what you are looking for?
Thank you so much
but I am really looking for the effect of soft factor on Information system methodology and individual acceptance or individual use or intention of such methodology.
Im really appreciated.
Acceptance from individuals is not taking into consideration soft factors generally as IS as a topic encompass an audience of IT individuals who carry with them logical traits and do not leave much space to persuasion or ambiguity. However, in my experience, I have noticed that those people appreciate social experiments and if the methodology is human-centric you will have a better chance to be accepted. They are not necessarily monetary driven and you will require a value exchange that they need. Try to exchange new knowledge and breakthroughs instead of simple cooperation, find values that can be shared in order to achieve true collaboration. Confucius once said that knowing what you know and knowing what you do not know is real knowledge. Find that breakeven and start your exchange.
