After integrating five higher-order personality traits in an extended model of technology acceptance, Devaraj et al. (2008) called for further research including personality in information systems research to understand the formation of perceptual beliefs and behaviors in more detail. To assist such future research endeavors, this article gives an overview on prior research discussing personali...

Reforming and innovating how the Information Systems Journal (ISJ) publishes promotes research has always been a core value of journal. Therefore, in 2021, we introduced new submission format with ISJ Trending Topics Workshop. After 2 years, are pleased to announce that first paper from Workshop series will be published Adam et al. (2023) was submitted workshop issue June 2021 appear this issue...

The concept of ‘the field’ is significant in ethnographic research as well as qualitativ research methods more generally. However, how a field researcher enters the field is usually taken for granted after gaining access to the field. We suggest that entrance is a distinct phase of fieldwork that differs from negotiating access. Entrance is not a trivial event; rather, it is a rite of passage i...

We consider global transformations of a Dirac fermion field that are generated by the generators of Poincaré transformations, but with a γ5 appended. Using proper time regularization in Minkowski space, we find that these chiral translations and chiral Lorentz transformations in general have anomalies, and we calculate these in a theory of a massive fermion coupled to an external Abelian vector...

I investigate bosonization in four dimensions, using the smooth bosonization scheme. I argue that the generalized chiral “phases” of the fermion field corresponding to chiral phase rotations and chiral Poincaré transformations are the appropriate degrees of freedom for bosonization. ’Chiral Poincaré transformations’ are Lorentz transformations and translations with a γ5 included in the generato...
