CALL FOR PAPERS
Minitrack: DARK SIDES OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY USE Track: Organizational Systems and Technology HICSS-56 (Jan 3-6, 2023) Information technology (IT) use has typically been viewed as beneficial. Yet, recent studies and observations have revealed worrying evidence that IT use may also be hiding potentially serious “dark sides.” In other words, IT use may lead to a host of negative consequences with varying degrees of severity for individuals, employees, families, firms and societies. This minitrack welcomes theoretical and empirical papers examining negative consequences of IT use and implementation in organizations and societies, and solutions to these issues. The objective of this minitrack is to focus not only on the antecedents, development processes, and consequence of numerous phenomena related to the unexpected negative effects of IT use, but also on potential strategies and techniques for behavioral and technological interventions. We seek, based on this forum of discussion, to provide practitioners (e.g., IT developers, managers, psychologists, and policy makers) in a multitude of contexts with a deeper understanding of the potential consequences regarding the dark sides of IT use. Further, we hope these studies help to shape guidelines for designing and implementing organizational and hedonic IT while minimizing the potential negative consequences of IT use. Submitted papers might focus on, but are not limited to, some of the following themes related to potential dark sides of IT use. We acknowledge that over time new “dark side of IT” phenomena will emerge, and we are hence open to topics that may extend this list.
* Problematic IS use behaviors * IT-related addictions, misuse and abuse * Algorithmic bias, fairness and aversion * Cyber loafing * Cyber bullying * Dark sides of artificial intelligence and/or robots * Dark sides of big data * Dark sides of digital assistants and wearable devices * Deceptive computer-mediated communication * Fake news * Disrupted work-life balance * IT interruptions * Technostress * Impulsive use of IT * Adverse physiological effects of IT use Submissions are welcome and encouraged from a variety of theoretical foundations (e.g., information systems, psychology, cognitive science, decision sciences, sociology, social networks, organizational behavior, neuroscience, computer science, and informatics) which might advance our knowledge of the antecedents, processes, interventions and consequences of the dark sides of IT use. This minitrack invites relevant and rigorous studies without restriction for the methodologies used, units of analyses and levels of theorization.
