Development of an Instrument for the Management of Computer User Attitudes in Hospitals

Abstract

AbstractMeasuring and managing user attitudes toward various aspects of computer systems is an important part of making those systems effective. In this paper, results of an effort to adapt and test a technique for measuring user satisfaction in hospitals are presented. These results include extensive empirical tests of the technique. Comparison norms for hospital computer user satisfaction are also presented and interpreted. Analysis software for using the technique as a management tool is presented. Finally, experiences using the concept are presented.
