Abstract Objectives To identify factors impacting physician use of information charted by others. Materials and methods A 4-round Delphi process was conducted with physicians and non-physicians publishing in the healthcare data quality literature to identify and characterize factors impacting physician use of information charted by others (other people or devices), either within or external to their organization. Factors with high average importance and reliability were categorized according to similarity of topic. Results Thirty-nine factors were ultimately identified as impacting physician use of information charted by others. Five categories of factors included aspects of: the information source, the information itself, the information user, the information system, and aspects of healthcare as an institution. In addition, 4 themes were identified: (1) value of narrative text in providing context, (2) importance of mental models and personal heuristics in deciding whether, and how to use information, (3) loss of confidence in, and decreased use of information due to errors encountered, and (4) existence of a trust hierarchy potentially influencing information use. Discussion Five similarly focused studies have recently probed clinician willingness to use information in decision-making. Our results mostly confirmed factors identified by prior studies, and uniquely identified aspects of the information user as important. Conclusion According to the participants in this study, information quality is prominent among factors impacting physician use of information charted by others. Based on this and similar studies, it appears that despite concerns about information quality, physicians use information charted by others.

The Impact

AbstractAs the cost of financial information dissemination continues to decline, investors, firms, and regulators are gradually adopting the principle of fair disclosure, which requires no preferential public disclosure. We use a simple model to examine the impact of this change on information acquisition with two alternative assumptions: (1) Investors have symmetric awareness about the underlying uncertainties, or (2) this awareness is asymmetric among them. Under the first assumption, the change reduces information asymmetry among investors and induces acquisition of high-quality information. Under the second assumption, however, the reduction of information asymmetry may be limited, and information acquisition is either reduced or less efficient. Specifically, investors with high awareness may either acquire high-quality information at a higher cost or not acquire it; investors with low awareness only acquire low-quality information. The loss in overall information quality is greater when awareness asymmetry is moderate than when it is high or low; this causes information asymmetry between the insiders and outside investors as a whole. These results offer explanations for intriguing empirical findings regarding the effect of a recent accounting regulation (Regulation Fair Disclosure).

The Impact

India is witnessing an unprecedented consumption boom. The economy is growing at the rate between 7 and 8 percent. The implication of this is improvement in income dynamics along with demographics and growth in consumption patternRetailing in India is currently estimated to be US$ 200 billion, of which organized Retailing (i.e. modern trade) makes up 3 percent or US$ 6.4 billion. Organized Retail is expected to grow at the rate of 25-30 percent p.a., and is projected to attain US$ 23billion by 2010.1 At these levels, organized retail would constitute up to 9 percent of overall retail sales.

<p>Purpose: Although Information Quality (IQ) is a widely discussed topic, people’s influence on the Information Quality remains insufficiently explored. There are many indicators in the academic literature that people play an important role in creating and maintaining information, however, there is a lack of studies investigating how people’s behaviour and attitude towards information influence the Information Quality within the organisation. The purpose of this paper is to explore the impact of Information Culture and Information Behaviour dimensions on Information Quality.  Design/methodology/approach: An online survey has been conducted among office workers of Wellington based medium and large companies. Adapted from previous research questionnaires have been used to determine people’s perceptions of the Information Culture of the companies, the Information Behaviour of employees and Information Quality.  Findings: Research reveals that Information Culture has moderate positive impact on Information Quality. Information Behaviour has a strong positive relationship with Information Quality.  Research limitations/implications: Research has drawn attention to Information Quality problems, but this time from a slightly different angle focusing on the impact of Information Culture and Information Behaviour on Information Quality. The presented study provides an insight into what factors of Information Culture and Information Behaviour are the most favourable for maintaining good quality information. This knowledge is important for organisations that seek ways of improving Information Quality. However, due to the limited time framework, the small sample and taking into account that this paper is probably the first research of its kind, the results need further investigation by other research studies.  Originality/value: The presented research appears to be the first of this kind and provides valuable knowledge into how employees might influence the quality of the information, which is the strategic resource of contemporary organisations.</p>
