Research Interests

My research interests lie in information systems (MIS) and human-computer interaction (HCI) in the organizational and business contexts. Over the past few years, I have been committed to research in the following areas. In future, I will continue my efforts along these directions while still be open to other relevant areas.

·     Online customer experiences/E-commerce website evaluation and use from the user perspective

·     Users’ affective reactions to IS/IT

·     IS/IT evaluation and acceptance in organizational and educational settings

·     Intellectual development of the scientific field of human-computer interaction

·     Competitive intelligence
