(2002) In Behaviour & Information Technology 21(4). p.281-292- Abstract

The transition to a new IT technology had negative consequences on job content and job control in 1999 but improvements could be seen in 2000. Co-operation with clients and service quality to clients improved each year from 1998 to... (More)

Co-operation with clients and service quality to clients improved each year from 1998 to 2000. Generally, a positive attitude to IT integration was related to high continuous improvement practices, goal clarity and job, control in all three phases. However, the relations were reduced in 1999.
