The Process of Innovation Assimilation by Firms in Different Countries: A Technology Diffusion Perspective on E-Business (2006, methodology): “As it turns out, this important proposition has not been fully tested, which leaves a gap in our understanding of differences across assimilation stages (Fichman 2000).”
Determinants of E-Business Use in U.S. Firms (2006, background): “A review study by Fichman suggests that future re search in the innovation diffusion area should try to combine multiple theo retical streams into a more integrated view of IT innovation [16].”
Assimilation and Diffusion of Web Technologies in Supply-Chain Management: An Examination of Key Drivers and Performance Impacts (2004, background): “A number of scholars have used innovation diffusion theory to examine the likelihood and extent of technology adoption, assimilation, and diffusion in organizations [29, 30, 81].”
Going Beyond the Dominant Paradigm for Information Technology Innovation Research: Emerging Concepts and Methods (2004, methodology): “The research streams associated with these two mechanisms are described in Fichman (2000), and will not be considered further here.”
NEBIC: A Dynamic Capabilities Theory for Assessing Net-Enablement (2002, background): “Assimilation routines for net-enablement in high velocity markets rely much more on real-time knowledge creation or simple rules (Eisenhardt and Martin 2000; Fichman 2000).”
The Impact of ERP Implementation on Business Process Outcomes: A Factor-Based Study (2007, methodology): “For an IT innovation to be successfully assimilated (implemented, used, and diffused), it first needs to be implemented [ 34 ].”
Post-Adoption Variations in Usage and Value of E-Business by Organizations: Cross-Country Evidence from the Retail Industry (2005, methodology): “This is measured by the breadth of use for different value chain activities and the depth of use (percentage) for each activity that has been migrated to the Internet platform, as motivated by the volume and diversity of EDI use proposed in the literature (Hart and Saunders 1998, Fichman 2000).”
Migrating to internet-based e-commerce: Factors affecting e-commerce adoption and migration at the firm level (2006, background): “As noted by Fichman [17], this is a relatively ‘‘thin’’ measure as there can be significant delay between the purchase and full implementation.”
Real Options and IT Platform Adoption: Implications for Theory and Practice (2004, background): “…(if they are deﬁned by how the average or typical adopting organization would experience the characteristic 8 ) or as varying across organizations (if deﬁned by how a particular organization would perceive or experience the characteristic) (see Fichman 2000 for a more detailed discussion).”
Social Networks and the Diffusion of User-Generated Content: Evidence from YouTube (2012, background): “A considerable amount of IS literature has examined the impact of diffusion on individuals' adoption (Fichman 2000).”
Organizational adoption and assimilation of complex technological innovations: development and application of a new framework (2001, background): “This figure does not allow for the possibility of such stage-dependent factors, which may influence assimilation at certain stages but not at others, although this has been a matter of interest and debate in the innovation literature (Cooper & Zmud, 1990; Downs & Mohr, 1976; Fichman, 2000; Karahanna”
