Suspicion has not been studied in great depth; however, a
conceptual understanding of suspicion is no less important than
many of the other highly studied constructs related to healthy
working relationships. Information technology (IT) is one area
where suspicion study is lacking, and this research effort was a
study into the specific domain of IT suspicion. An extensive study
of the suspicion literature and the suspicion nomological net as
well as informal surveys of the general populous and subject matter
experts were used to create an IT suspicion conceptual definition
and measure. In order to test IT suspicion's relationships with
other more established constructs a survey was created. The final
pilot study consisted of two measures from suspicions nomological
net, locus of control and disposition to trust, a trait IT
suspicion measure, a manipulation exercise on a laptop computer
intended to induce suspicion, and finally a state suspicion
measure. Analysis indicated IT suspicion is a multi-dimensional
construct, with independent state and trait properties. It also has
separate dimensions within the state and trait components.
Comparisons between the components of the IT suspicion construct
and related measures indicated a negative correlation between state
suspicion and locus of control.
