Information Security Risk

PurposeElectronic waste (e-waste) such as discarded computers and smartphones may contain large amounts of confidential data. Improper handling of remaining information in e-waste can, therefore, drive information security risk. This risk, however, is not always properly assessed and managed. The authors take the protection motivation theory (PMT) lens of analysis to understand intentions to protect one's discarded electronic assets.Design/methodology/approachBy applying structural equation modeling, the authors empirically tested the proposed model with survey data from 348 e-waste handling users.FindingsResults highlight that (1) protection intention is influenced by the perceived threat of discarding untreated e-waste (a threat appraisal) and self-efficacy to treat the discarded e-waste (a coping appraisal) and (2) optimism bias plays a dual-role in a direct and moderating way to reduce the perceived threat of untreated e-waste and its effect on protection intentions.Originality/valueResults support the assertions and portray a unique theoretical account of the processes that underline people's motivation to protect their data when discarding e-waste. As such, this study explains a relatively understudied information security risk behavior in the e-waste context, points to the role of optimism bias in such decisions and highlights potential interventions that can help to alleviate this information security risk behavior.

New Phase

Research on e-government is taking a new phase nowadays, with researchers focusing more to evaluate the continued usage intention by the citizens rather than the initial intention. Continuance intention is defined as a person’s intention to continue using, or long term usage intention of a technology. Unlike initial acceptance decision, continuance intention depends on various factors that affect the individual’s decision to continue using a particular system, with trust being one for the most important factors. Therefore, this case study aims to examine the role of trust, particularly trust in the system, on continuance usage intention of an e-filing system by taxpayers in Malaysia. The primary discussion in this case study concerns the e-filing system in Malaysia, followed by the strategies for successful adoption of e-government services and the benefits of e-government adoption, concluding with future research directions.

In this study the authors explore how technological advancements have improved the online tax filing process in the United States. In particular, we administered a survey to 102 Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program (VITA) Site Coordinators to explore the role of OCB and POS on user perceptions of e-filing system success. The results and implications for research and practice are discussed.

Starting from the framework of reference theory and logic and opinions of experts, that the work of employees can not be ignored from the role of the instrument as a supporting factor in addition to the ability and motivation of the employees themselves. Moreover, the completion of work is not only effective but efficient. The efficiency of the work of employees in various organizations has become a demand that can not be ignored. Filing system is a supporting instrument for the realization of work efficiency. It can be said that the effectiveness of the employee depends on one of them on the system in practice, especially at the level of implementation. For that result survey results and analysis of research data in one Government Institution in Bandung was the research hypothesis was answered that the implementation of filing system is a strong enough support to the efficiency of employee work.ABSTRAKBertolak dari kerangka acuan teori dan logika serta pendapat para pakar, bahwa hasil kerja pegawai tidak dapat di abaikan dari peran instrumen sebagai faktor supporting di samping kemampuan dan motivasi dari pegawai itu sendiri. Terlebih lagi bahwa penyelesaian pekerjaan tidak hanya sekedar efektif tetapi juga efisien. Efisiensi kerja pegawai dalam berbagai organisasi telah menjadi suatu tuntutan yang tidak bisa diabaikan. Sistem kearsipan merupakan instrumen supporting bagi terwujudnya efisiensi kerja. Dapat dikatakan bahwa efiensi kerja pegawai tergantung salah satunya pada sistem yang di berlakukan dalam bekerja, terutama pada tataran implement-tasinya. Untuk hal tersebut hasil survey dan analisis data penelitian pada salah satu Instansi Pemerintahan di Kota Bandung ternyata hipotesis penelitian terjawab bahwa implementasi sistem kearsipan merupakan salah satu faktor  determinan  yang memiliki pengaruh cukup kuat terhadap efisiensi kerja pegawai.

In the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, the governments are trying to contain the spread with non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs), such as social distancing rules, restrictions, and lockdowns. In an effort to identify factors that may influence population adherence to NPIs, we examined the role of optimism bias, anxiety, and perceived severity of the situation in relation to engagement in protective behavioral changes and satisfaction with governments’ response to this pandemic. We conducted an online survey in 935 participants (Mage = 34.44; 68.88% females) that was disseminated in April and May 2020 in the Netherlands, Germany, Greece, and USA. Individuals with high optimism bias engaged less in behavioral changes, whereas individuals with high levels of anxiety and high perceived severity engaged more in behavioral changes. Individuals with high optimism bias and individuals with high levels of anxiety were less satisfied with the governments’ response, albeit for different reasons. Individuals who reported low perceived severity and low government satisfaction engaged the least in behavioral changes, whereas participants who reported high perceived severity and low government satisfaction engaged the most in behavioral changes. This study contributes to a better understanding of the psychological factors that influence people’s responses to NPIs.

This online Second Edition of Treatment for Hoarding Disorder is the culmination of more than 20 years of research on understanding hoarding and building an effective intervention to address its myriad components. Thoroughly updated and reflective of changes made to the Fifth Edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders (DSM-5), this online client workbook outlines an empirically supported and effective CBT program for treating hoarding disorder. It helps to guide clients through their treatment for hoarding disorder with their clinician. It includes homework, forms, exercises, and behavioral experiments to test personal beliefs about possessions, develop an organization plan and filing system, and sort and organize items room by room. A major goal of the treatment is to recapture the positive role of possessions in the lives of people with hoarding problems, and strategies are outlined for sustaining gains and making further progress, as well as for managing stressful life events that can provoke problematic acquiring and difficulty discarding.
