  • The purpose of this study was to provide fundamental information for the determination on secondary Home Economics educations contents on food/nutrition. For this purpose, the Home Economics teachers’needs assessment was performed in view of three(technical, interpretive, emancipatory) systems of action. Questionnaire survey was performed. Among 564 questionnaires sent to Home Economics teachers of 396 secondary school selected by systemic random sampling 362 questionnaires were received and 335 questionnaires were analyzed for this study. As a statistical tool, SPSS/PC(sup)+ was used to analyze frequency, mean, standard deviation, T-test and ANOVA. The major findings in this study were as followings: 1. The most important system of action Home Economics teachers recognized on the contents of food/nutrition was interpretive action, followed by emancipatory action. Technical action was turned out to be the least important system of action. 2. Home Economics teachers recognized that the content of interpretive action was the most achieved action in the text book. The least achieved action was emancipatory action, and the middle was technical action. 3. The needs related to contents of emancipatory action was the highest, followed by interpretive action. The lowest needs was the contents related to technical action. 4. Home Economics teacher’s personal background and situation variables make no difference in the importance, achievement in the text book, and the needs of food/nutrition contents.

  • The purpose of the paper is to apply Total Interpretive Structural Modeling (TISM) used to develop a hierarchy among the key drivers and barriers to multivendor ATM Technology adoption in India from the perspectives of suppliers. TISM approach is an extension of Warfield's (IEEE Transactions: System, Man & Cybernetics 4:405-17, 1974) Interpretive Structural Modeling(ISM) approach. Based on the literature, drivers and barriers for adoption of Multivendor ATM Technology are identified. TISM is used to develop a hierarchical model which states the interpretation of relationship among these drivers and barriers. Hierarchies of all relevant drivers and barriers are developed and significant interrelationship was found out. Implications for the researchers and Industry Practitioner are highlighted. For Researchers, TISM methodology facilitates to further carry out exploratory studies by identifying the factors in technology adoption domain and focus their interactions through hierarchical structures. For Practitioners with suppliers, a list of relevant barriers and drivers to adoption of this technology in India are indications to take a decision to adopt Multivendor ATM Technology in their respective suppliers. The proposed Model developed through qualitative Modeling technique has been accomplished from the perspectives of suppliers in India in the domain of multivendor ATM Technology for the first time in ATM Banking as a contribution to the Literature.

  • What is individuals' privacy notion, and does it change with the social roles taken up by them? We explored these questions using a qualitative interpretive research approach. We found that individuals have mixed notion of privacy. Individuals view privacy either as a commodity or as a control. Further, we found that an individual's privacy notion is a function of their social role within the society and their privacy preferences. Our research points to the importance of expanding the notion of privacy to encompass a broader understanding of privacy preferences. We theorize our findings using social penetration theory and presents a privacy model which provides the logical framework for interpreting people's views on privacy.

  • Evaluation of the implementation and performance of a firm's green supply chain management (GSCM) is an ongoing process. Balanced scorecard is a multi-criteria evaluation concept that highlights implementation and performance measures. The literature on the framework is abundant literature but scarce on how to build a hierarchical framework under uncertainty with dependence relations. Hence, this study proposes a hybrid approach, which includes applied interpretive structural modeling to build a hierarchical structure and uses the analytic network process to analyze the dependence relations. Additionally, this study applies the fuzzy set theory to determine linguistic preferences. Twenty dependence criteria are evaluated for a GSCM implemented firm in Taiwan. The result shows that the financial aspect and life cycle assessment are the most important performance and weighted criteria.

  • This study aims to use ISM to identify the enablers affecting the acceptance of IoT services. For this purpose, this study conducted an ISM analysis and a MICMAC analysis, extracted the enablers from Internet of Things - An Action Plan for Europe published by the EU for the research, and conducted interviews and surveys. The study found that it would be preferentially necessary to prepare the base for successful IoT services through international cooperation and the security of objective data. In addition, it turned out that it would be necessary to make efforts to spread and develop IoT services by conducting R&D and implementing projects through public-private partnerships and the organization of a consultative group. Lastly, since information security and standardization are the desired objects of the IoT industry, it was found that both the government and the industrial world should focus on them. This study has significance in that it can provide practical implications for the effective acceptance of IoT services.

  • Consumer demand for e-commerce services has skyrocketed due to the introduction of social distancing standards and lockdown measures that countries have taken to combat the pandemic. There has been a notable surge in the popularity of on-demand delivery services, with a significant influx of new users turning to the e-platform for assistance. This research paper tries to identify the enablers of E-commerce Utility and Service Quality and establish a connection using total interpretive structural modelling (TISM). Enablers are the building blocks for providing customers with an enhanced and more consistent service experience contributing to service quality. The enablers and the linkages thus established hold valuable insights for e-commerce marketers, aiding them in effectively reaching their customers, and achieving desired growth outcomes. The TISM- based model and the MICMAC analysis identified two barriers; website design and personalization as the decisive attributes of e-commerce service quality, possessing strong driving power and weak dependence. Furthermore, the factors of reliability, responsiveness, information, and ease of use form the linkage zone, indicating that any action taken on these factors would not only influence other factors but also have a reciprocal effect on them.

  • Since information systems are pervasive in the business and non-business areas, the issue of extending researches on information systems to knowledge systems and e-business systems is one of the most profitable topics of researches. We propose a historical, discontinuous changes introducing ambiguity in explaining and interpreting innovative nature of three paradigms of systems: information systems, knowledge systems, and e-business systems. Resorting to the historical perspective in developing ideas into meaningful themes, we proposed a discrete continuity in interpreting changes of paradigms of systems. Discrete continuity may be explained by ambiguously-shared meaningful perspectives applied to different paradigms of systems and interpretive elements of each system. The discrete continuity has been adopted to make ambiguity utilized have instrumental contribution in researches. The engrafted ambiguity in systems design, development, and use could have enduring instrumental value in interpreting the types or variants of systems in each paradigm of systems.

  • Since geographic information systems (GIS) began to emerge as an effective spatial information processing technology, there also has been growing interest in integrated use of GIS with other decision support systems. As various spatial-related problems such as urban development planning and natural resource management require more analytical and interpretive solutions, it is viewed that the supportive role of GIS to complement or reinforce the counterpart decision tools will be increased. This study examines the major situations that have needed the integration methodologies in the past decade to derive research trends relating to this integration agenda and, hence, to elicit the possible underlying principles from those experiences. According to the kinds of decision tools linked with GIS, alternative methodologies and viewpoints are categorized and compared.

  • Thanks to the informatization of society, complex and high-tech devices are being introduced in all areas of human life, and the latest technologies are being actively improved in the modern, globalizing world. The article deals with the issues of using information and communication technologies in legal activities. It also covers the main types of such activities: law-making, law enforcement, and interpretive activity. Since there is an increase in the flow and accumulation of legal information, it is practically impossible to use traditional methods of working with legal information. The article considers and analyzes the role of information and communication technologies in modern legal activity. It is necessary to reveal the principles, concepts, conditions, and factors of their development and develop theoretical and practical recommendations for the use of such technologies in order to solve legal tasks. The authors of the article raise the issues of increasing the efficiency of legal activity, as well as the integration of information technologies into practical legal activity and their use for collecting, storing, searching, and issuing legal and reference information. Much attention is paid to the specific use of automated data banks and information retrieval systems in legal practice that ensure the accumulation, systematization, and effective search for legally important information. The development of such technologies leads to the creation of comfortable conditions for a lawyer in the course of their professional activity. Currently, legal activity cannot exist without telecommunication technologies, legal reference systems, and electronic programs. The authors believe that due to the use of the latest information technologies, the time for making legal decisions has significantly accelerated, the process of searching and systematizing evidence has been worked out, and it has become possible to quickly and efficiently find information on adopted laws and legal acts.
