ABSTRACT Funding and Human Resources (HR) can increase the successful use of Village and Regional Information Systems (SIDEKA). In this study, using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) on the factors that influence the successful implementation of SIDEKA in the District shows that funding of SIDEKA allocation, SIDEKA manager's human resource management and accompanying SIDEKA influence positively and significantly on the success of SIDEKA implementation. Several alternative strategies have been successfully formulated using the analysis of Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT) on internal and external factors. The priority strategy chosen based on respondents' assessment is the strategy of weaknesses and opportunities (WO) including first allocating and increasing SIDEKA funds. Second, collaborating on education and training for managers. And third, improvement of the Information and Communication network in Cianjur Regency

Abstract. Digitalization, enhanced storage capacities, and the Internet of Things increase the volume of data in modern organizations. To process and make use of these data and to avoid information overload, management information systems (MIS) are introduced that collect, process, and analyze relevant data. However, a precondition for the application of MIS is that users trust them. Extending accounts of trust in automation and trust in technology, we introduce a new model of trust in MIS that addresses the conceptual ambiguities of existing conceptualizations of trust and integrates initial empirical work in this field. In doing so, we differentiate between perceived trustworthiness of an MIS, experienced trust in an MIS, intentions to use an MIS, and actual use of an MIS. Moreover, we consider users’ perceived risks and contextual factors (e. g., autonomy at work) as moderators. The introduced model offers guidelines for future research and initial suggestions to foster trust-based MIS use.

Two experiments tested the hypothesis that imagery ability and figural complexity interact to affect the choice of mental rotation strategies. Participants performed the Shepard and Metzler (1971) mental rotation task. On half of the trials, the 3-D figures were manipulated to create “fragmented” figures, with some cubes missing. Good imagers were less accurate and had longer response times on fragmented figures than on complete figures. Poor imagers performed similarly on fragmented and complete figures. These results suggest that good imagers use holistic mental rotation strategies by default, but switch to alternative strategies depending on task demands, whereas poor imagers are less flexible and use piecemeal strategies regardless of the task demands.
