Ảnh hưởng của công nghệ thông tin và truyền thông đến mức độ sử dụng sản phẩm và dịch vụ tài chính của hộ gia đình: Nghiên cứu tại Việt Nam

his paper uses the binary logistic regression method with the 2020 Vietnam Living Standards Survey data set of the General Statistics Office of Vietnam to evaluate the impact of information and communications technology on the level of use of financial products/services of households. Research results show that information and communications technology positively impacts the use of financial products/services. Increasing access and use of information and communications technology increases the likelihood of households having bank accounts, ATM cards, savings accounts, and participating in life insurance. This study also provides new evidence that households' access to information from the commune/ward radio system will increase the level of household use of financial products/services. From the results obtained, the research proposes recommendations for the Government, the State Bank of Vietnam, and financial institutions to enhance the positive impact of information and communications technology on the level of use of financial products/services by households.

The impact of technology on access to credit: A review of loan approval and terms in rural Vietnam and Thailand

The acceleration of economic digitalisation has been immense in recent years, especially when coupled with the rapid development of technology-augmented finance. However, less understood is how such technology-augmented finance has impacted access to credit within rural contexts of developing economies. Using household-level survey data, our results provide novel evidence of a negative relationship, on average, between rural households’ access to credit, as measured by loan approvals, and internet access. More specifically, use of internet in rural areas of the countries under analysis reduces the chance of accessing credit by up to 65%. Moreover, when we further investigate loan terms, our findings indicate that internet users get six-month shorter loan durations and have a lower interest cost of borrowing of up to 1.2%. The results for loan approval rates are persistent for formal loans and for nations at a lower stage of economic development, i.e., only within the less developed Vietnamese rural context. Our findings provide richer insights into the impact of information and telecommunication technologies (ITC) on access to finance in developing countries characterised by significant proportions of rural areas affected by severe information asymmetry-related issues that may be amplified or reduced by increased internet connectivity. Our results carry important policy implications. On the demand side, they highlight the need to ensure that government initiatives should aim to better educate rural borrowers in relation to financial literacy and credit choices. On the supply side, our findings urge the need to introduce policies for formal lenders targeted towards the reduction of the information asymmetries pervasive in rural areas.

The impact of information technology for online learning with the implementation and involvement of students in the creation of conditions and environment

Adaptive e-learning is considered a stimulus to assist learning and increase student engagement. Hence, building suitable adaptive e-learning environments helps to individualize education to reinforce learning goals. This work aims to create an adaptable e-learning environment based on students' learning styles and examine the effect of the adaptive e-learning environment on student engagement. This study also contrasts the suggested adaptive e-learning environment with the standard e-learning strategy. The suggested adaptive e-learning strategy and findings may assist e-learning institutions in building and implementing more individualized and adaptable e-learning environments to increase student engagement. The work is based on mixed research methodologies used to examine the effect in the following manner: The adaptive e-learning environment is designed using the development technique, a quasi-experimental research methodology for performing the research experiment. The student engagement scale measures the following affective and behavioral factors: skills, participation/interaction, performance, and emotions. According to the data, the experimental group is statistically substantially higher than the control group. These experimental findings suggest that an adaptable e-learning environment can motivate pupils to learn. This study makes many practical recommendations: how to develop a foundation for adaptive e-learning based on learning styles and how to execute it; how to improve the impact of adaptive e-learning in education; and how to boost the cost-effectiveness of education.

Aligning With Metrics: Differential Impact of IT and Organizational Metrics on Cognitive Coordination in Top Management Teams

Achieving cognitive coordination in cross-functional teams is a perennial challenge in organizations. It is especially challenging in the context of information systems, where strategic alignment remains a top concern of leaders despite decades of research on the topic. In this study, we develop and empirically validate a theoretical model that explores the role of communicating about performance metrics in fostering cognitive coordination between the Chief Information Officer (CIO) and top management team (TMT). Building on a theoretical lens of transactive memory systems, we hypothesize how the use of unit-specific metrics of information technology (IT) performance and collective metrics of organizational performance can differentially influence mutual trust and shared understanding in the CIO–TMT relationship. Through a survey of 268 CIOs, an experiment with 106 participants using a novel IT leadership game, and an algorithmic analysis of 3200+ articles in a trade publication, we find that communications using narrowly focused IT unit metrics improve mutual trust between the CIO and the TMT, while communications using broader organizational metrics (along with mutual trust) increase shared understanding of IT's role in improving organizational performance. Our multimethod study adds an important new facet to the rich literature on IT strategic alignment as well as the use of performance metrics in operations management. We discuss its implications for both theory and practice in improving cognitive coordination among the CIOs and TMT. Our model and findings are also relevant to other cross-functional teams where specialized individuals must collaborate to achieve collective goals.

The differential impact of IT investments in the long term: a long-horizon event study

PurposeThis research investigates the differential impact of information technology (IT) investments based on their features, such as investment in data management capability, security improvement, IT outsourcing or new IT infrastructure. The Long-Horizon Event Study (LHES) is essential for providing a more appropriate measure of the value of IT investments because firms' strategic decisions often set long-horizon and large-scale organizational goals, and there is inherent uncertainty regarding future cash flows resulting from these investments. Therefore, the authors aim to analyze how announcements of IT investments affect the firm's abnormal stock returns over the long term and to compare the differential impact of different features of IT investment.Design/methodology/approachThe authors gathered IT investment announcements and stock data of listed firms in Korea between 2000 and 2018, and the monthly stock market returns over the 5 years after the announcements. To measure the differential impact of IT investments based on the investment features, the authors separate announcements data into five groups. A LHES is used to estimate the long-term effects of IT investment announcements.FindingsThe results indicate that announcements of IT investments had a long-term positive effect on firm performance. Additionally, the findings reveal differential effects of IT investments across industries and investment features. Notably, news of self-developed IT investments and IT investments in the manufacturing industry had significantly positive effects. However, contrary to common belief, announcements of investments in so-called essential IT areas such as data, security, or new IT infrastructure did not yield significant effects.Originality/valueAlthough the need for LHES has been emphasized in information systems research, few follow-up studies have been conducted since Barua and Mani (2018). This is primarily due to the challenges associated with collecting large-scale abnormal stock returns data over a long horizon. This research represents the first LHES to investigate the differential impact of IT investments based on their features. By doing so, this study can provide valuable insights for decision-makers within firms, helping them understand the time horizon of market outcomes of IT investments based on their features. Furthermore, this work extends the scope of LHES to comprehend the differential impacts of investment features. For instance, managers need to grasp that so-called essential IT investments, such as data management, security enhancements or new IT infrastructure, may not necessarily generate long-term market value.

THE ONTOLOGY OF NETWORK WARFARE: THE ESSENCE AND CONSEQUENCES

The constitution of a new space for the functioning of social reality due to the impact of information and communication technologies on all spheres of human activity contributed to the transformation of traditional military operations, which resulted in the spread of network wars. The networking and digitalization of society has led to a change in human existence. Cognitive, informational, social, and psychological aspects of network processes form a new picture of the world, creating conditions for changing people's mentality and behavior. Therefore, the identification of the ontological foundations of network warfare is of particular importance. The disclosure of its essence is a prerequisite for the development of measures to preserve the security of the statedevelopment. The transformation of the mechanism of datainformational impact on the consciousness and meaning of both an individual and large social groups has led to a change in the civic position of the individual, expanding the possibilities for manipulating public opinion. The formation of new network structures and the spread of cyberterrorism are modifying the world order. Network wars have become an integral phenomenon of the modern realityexistence. Their attribute, which determines the specifics of the conflict unfolding, is the destructive use of information. Information disseminated on the Internet forms social content. Thus, new conditions are being created for the aggravation of contradictions, including the world community in the zone of confrontation, manipulating the behavior of its representatives, creating opportunities for non-contact warfare.

Information technology, market congestion, and economic geography

I investigate the impact of economic integration, in terms of trade costs and information technology, on the interregional location patterns of retail firms by introducing three features into a new economic geography model: individuals consume only a restricted number of varieties; firms compete for customer acquisition; and the advancement of information technology enables consumers to easily perceive and buy products sold by firms in distant regions. I consider two possibilities regarding competition for attention: relative competition, in which a firm can attract more consumers by advertising more than the average level, and absolute competition, in which each firm competes with another to enhance the share of its advertisement in the market. I show that consumption variety is richer in the agglomerated region, but spatial consumption inequality shrinks as information technology develops. A reduction in trade costs may cause the redispersion of economic activities under sufficiently low trade costs only in the case of absolute competition. This is more likely when competition for attention is fierce and information technology is not fully developed. The results not only support the complementarity between information technology and cities but also provide a new insight that competition among firms is an important factor governing the impact of information technology on economic geography.
