Introduction to the Special Issue on “Quo Vadis TAM – Issues and Reflections on Technology Acceptance Research”

Rudy Hirschheim, Louisiana State University

Abstract

IS Research Perspectives aims to introduce and provoke discussion about critical issues in the IS field, from an academic perspective. The articles published in this section are expected to create excitement about how the IS field needs to change (or maintain its status quo) in order to thrive as an intellectual enterprise. As such, we welcome innovative and provocative contributions taking a specific conceptual, theoretical, methodological, or thematic viewpoint of a particular area of interest to the field. This Special Issue, entitled: "Quo Vadis TAM - Issues and Reflections on Technology Acceptance Research," is a critical appraisal of Technology Acceptance Model research and its directions. Such an exploration is long overdue given its central place in the past intellectual discourse within the IS field.
