Explaining Contradictory Reactions to Information Technology Implementation
Researchers have often been confronted with contradictory reactions to the implementation of a new technology within a single setting. For example, Walsham (2002) documents a technology transfer case that resulted in a variety of contradictory reactions including partial acceptance, outright resistance, and conflict, all within the same organization. The literature documents numerous situations...
متن کاملTrust and distrust in contradictory information transmission
We analyse the problem of contradictory information distribution in networks of agents with positive and negative trust. The networks of interest are built by ranked agents with different epistemic attitudes. In this context, positive trust is a property of the communication between agents required when message passing is executed bottom-up in the hierarchy, or as a result of a sceptic agent ch...
متن کاملReasoning with contradictory information using quasi-classical logic
The proof theory of quasi-classical logic (QC logic) allows the derivation of non-trivializable classical inferences from inconsistent information. A non-trivializable, or paraconsistent, logic is, by necessity, a compromise, or weakening, of classical logic. The compromises on QC logic seem to be more appropriate than other paraconsistent logics for applications in computing. In particular, th...
متن کاملContradictory information flow in networks with trust and distrust
We offer a proof system and a NetLogo simulation for trust and distrust in networks where contradictory information is shared by ranked lazy and sceptic agents. Trust and its negative are defined as properties of edges: the former is required when a message is passed bottom-up in the hierarchy or received by a sceptic agent; the latter is attributed to channels that require contradiction resolu...
متن کاملCongenital defects: mothers' reactions to first information.
Since it is natural for a mother to expect her baby to be perfect she is bound to be shocked and upset when she is told that he is in some way abnormal. Such information will inevitably be painful for her to receive, and the task of telling her must always be a difficult and unpleasant one. The following account is based on a study concerning congenital abnormalities which included an attempt t...
