This book provides a review of current research in fake news and
presents six new empirical research studies examining its impact.
Fake news has garnered immense public attention following the 2016
Brexit referendum, three US elections, the 2019 Indian lynchings,
and so on. Fake news undermines public life across the globe,
especially in countries where journalistic practices and
institutions are weak. Some fake news is created to spread
ideological messages or to create mischief, whereas other fake news
is created for profit. Research shows that fake news spreads
farther, faster, and more broadly than true news and has had major
societal impacts. All signs indicate that it will get worse as
political activists, scammers, alternative news media, and hostile
governments become more sophisticated in their production and
targeting of fake news. This book features leading scholars who
provide a review of the current research and presents six new
empirical research studies examining its impact. Some of this
research shows how inventions designed to reduce fake news can
actually have the opposite effect, and instead act to increase the
spread of fake news. Other research takes a longer-term
perspective, by measuring or inserting emotions into headlines,
allowing us to examine some of the roots of fake news behaviors for
future study. This shows how challenging the fake news phenomenon
is to solve. Fake News on the Internet will be a key resource for
academics, researchers, and advanced students of Media Studies,
Research Methods, Information Systems, Communication Studies,
Management, Cultural Studies and Sociology. The chapters included
in this book were originally published as a special issue of
Journal of Management Information Systems.
Managing & Using Information Systems: A Strategic Approach
provides a solid knowledgebase of basic concepts to help readers
become informed, competent participants in Information Systems (IS)
decisions. Written for MBA students and general business managers
alike, the text explains the fundamental principles and practices
required to use and manage information, and illustrates how
information systems can create, or obstruct, opportunities within
various organizations. This revised and updated seventh edition
discusses the business and design processes relevant to IS, and
presents a basic framework to connect business strategy, IS
strategy, and organizational strategy. Readers are guided through
each essential aspect of information Systems, including information
architecture and infrastructure, IT security, the business of
Information Technology, IS sourcing, project management, business
analytics, and relevant IS governance and ethical issues. Detailed
chapters contain mini cases, full-length case studies, discussion
topics, review questions, supplemental reading links, and a set of
managerial concerns related to the topic.
"Human-Computer Interaction and Management Information Systems:
Applications" offers state-of-the-art research by a distinguished
set of authors who span the MIS and HCI fields. The original
chapters provide authoritative commentaries and in-depth
descriptions of research programs that will guide 21st century
scholars, graduate students, and industry professionals.
Human-Computer Interaction (or Human Factors) in MIS is concerned
with the ways humans interact with information, technologies, and
tasks, especially in business, managerial, organizational, and
cultural contexts. It is distinctive in many ways when compared
with HCI studies in other disciplines. The MIS perspective affords
special importance to managerial and organizational contexts by
focusing on analysis of tasks and outcomes at a level that
considers organizational effectiveness. With the recent advancement
of technologies and development of many sophisticated applications,
human-centeredness in MIS has become more critical than ever
before. This work focuses on applications and evaluations including
special case studies, specific contexts or tasks, HCI
methodological concerns, and the use and adoption process.
