The use of AI and IoT is leading to fundamental changes that affect our daily lives. Smart homes have emerged. The objective of this study is to understand the acceptance and resistance factors of smart homes by combining the UTAUT theory with the theories of regulatory focus, uses and gratifications, and technology readiness. Data are collected in France, Germany and China. The results show that consumers pursue 2 types of complementary objectives when making decisions about smart home adoption: utilitarian, focused on prevention, and affective, focused on well-being. Technological security positively influences the confidence and well-being provided by smart homes, which in turn influences adoption intent.

Baby, you can drive my car: Antecedents that drive consumers’ adoption of AI-powered autonomous vehicle

Les véhicules autonomes (VA) basés sur l'intelligence artificielle (IA) constituent l'une des avancées technologiques les plus attendues de notre époque, avec des implications sociales très importantes en termes de sécurité des conducteurs/passagers et d'aspects environnementaux. Cependant, la plupart des consommateurs sont réticents à l'adoption de ces VA. Nous analysons, à l'aide d'une enquête menée en France, l'adoption de VA basés sur l’IA, afin de comprendre les facteurs psychologiques, sociaux et cognitifs. Nous montrons qu'il existe une relation positive entre l'adoption de VA et les attentes en matière de performance, facilité d’usage, la reconnaissance sociale, le bien-être, l'hédonisme, la confiance dans la technologie, ainsi que la sécurité.

Does big data management impacts marketing and firm performance

Despite being the object of much interest, deep insights regarding why and when investments in big data resources enhance firm performance are lacking in the literature. Building on the resource based view and survey data from 301 senior marketing managers, this study reveals that big data resources improve firm performance by enhancing their market-directed capabilities. A complementary balance of IT infrastructure, human capital through data scientists, and “customer orientation” is necessary for effective BDR management and the impact on firm performance. In addition, firms pursuing a differentiation rather than cost leadership strategy gain most from big data resource investments and that such resources improve by in average 13 % the performance of firms.

Affect and information systems

The sociomaterial lens within IS research holds that agency should not be considered as a property solely of humans, or of technology, but instead arises from an emergent interaction between the two. This, emergent, account of agency deepens our understanding of unfolding IS practice, but its largely cognitive orientation remains naïve towards affectively-sensed motivations that also form part of this interaction. By implication, a sociomaterial perspective lacking an affective dimension offers an incomplete conceptualisation of information systems. In response, an affectively-informed negative ontology encourages IS researchers to extend their focus beyond the visible, to encompass how actors’ receptiveness towards material objects (discourses, technologies) is shaped by deep, affectively-derived motivations of which they are not focally aware, but which nonetheless acquire agency in contributing to a sociomaterial outcome. A central argument, and illustrative empirical vignette, demonstrate how the concepts of sociomateriality, affect, and negative ontology combine to offer researchers an enhanced understanding of relational agency. A discussion follows, exploring some initial ontological, epistemological and methodological implications of an affectively-informed negative ontology for IS research.

Synergies of Institutional Theory and Dynamic Capability View in Firm Performance: Exploring Climate Change Adaptation and B2B Marketing Capabilities

Based on institutional theory and the dynamic capability view, this study delves into the relationship between a firm’s climate change adaptation (CCA) capability and its performance, with a focus on the mediating influence of business-to-business (B2B) marketing capability. The study poses two main research questions: RQ1: What role do institutional pressures play in fostering CCA capability among B2B firms in both developed and developing countries? RQ2: How does the CCA capability of B2B firms impact their performance? To validate the theoretical model developed, data is collected through surveys conducted in a developed country (Australia) and a developing country (South Africa). The study holds significance on two fronts: (a) being among the first to examine the influence of institutional pressures on CCA capability development, and (b) uncovering the mediating role of marketing capability in enhancing B2B firm performance through CCA capability. The study’s novel contribution lies in identifying pivotal elements for driving exceptional B2B firm performance amidst climate change, while employing institutional theory and the dynamic capability view to elucidate underlying mechanisms.

The interplay of cause familiarity, cause-brand fit, and perceived betrayal in cause-brand alliances.

This cross-cultural study (individualistic vs. collectivistic culture) applies construal level theory, exploring the impact of cause familiarity on brand attitudes and how cause–brand fit mediates this link. The study also examines how perceived betrayal moderates the relationship between cause–brand fit and brand attitude. Data collection involved 455 participants from French and Turkish cultures via snowball sampling. Findings show cause familiarity significantly influences brand attitude, with attitude toward fit in a cause–brand alliance as a mediator. Perceived betrayal also moderates the cause–brand fit and brand attitude relationship, shedding light on the positive effects of aligning with a familiar cause on brand attitudes, emphasizing the crucial role of fit in such alliances.
