Examining E-learning tools impact using IS-impact model: A comparative PLS-SEM and IPMA case study

Many educators across U.S. high schools face information quality and system quality challenges when using learning management systems (LMS). These challenges impact both the individual and organizational levels, affecting overall success. The purpose of this study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of e-learning tools using the IS-Impact model. This quantitative research assesses the importance and performance factors of educators' use of LMS tools. Using PLS-SEM and IPMA in SmartPLS 4, the effects of Information Quality, System Quality, Individual Impact, and Organizational Impact on the Overall Impact were analyzed based on data from 237 respondents through an online survey across U.S. high schools. Two conceptual models were developed and assessed based on the original IS-Impact Model. One model examined information quality and system quality as having direct effects on overall impact, while the other considered these variables to have indirect effects. Comparing Model-A and Model-B, path analysis, total effects, importance, and performance of latent variables were analyzed in detail against the Overall Impact dependent variable. Findings emphasize Information Quality and Organizational Impact as critical factors influencing the Overall Impact of successful LMS implementation. The IPMA results from this study offer actionable insights by identifying performance areas needing improvement based on importance. This study reveals a complex interplay of direct and indirect effects, highlighting the need for a holistic approach to enhance the impact of e-learning tools within educational institutions. This study further fosters a culture of innovation and competitive advantage by leveraging information systems to improve organizational processes and outcomes.

Exploring the role of viscosity-vaso-occlusion and haemolysis-endothelial dysfunction in pain sensitization among Jamaicans with sickle cell disease.

Viscosity-vaso-occlusion (VVO) and haemolysis-endothelial dysfunction (HED) are pathophysiological mechanisms and clinical subphenotypes of sickle cell disease (SCD). Recurrent vaso-occlusive crises (VOC) may lead to neuroplastic changes and pain sensitization. Among 257 SCD participants, we assessed the relationship of subphenotypes with pain sensitivity using quantitative sensory testing to identify heat pain thresholds (HPT) and pressure pain thresholds (PPT). VOC history and sleep, social and emotional functioning were assessed using the Adult Sickle Cell Quality of Life Measurement Information System. The 'elbow method' determined the optimal number of clusters as three. Clustering was performed using K-prototypes. Among clusters 2 and 3, VOC frequency and severity were higher. Clusters 1 and 3 had lower haemoglobin, higher reticulocytes and lactate dehydrogenase and more leg ulcers. In multivariate regression, cluster 3 was associated with approximately 13.6% lower PPT compared to cluster 1, and female sex was associated with decreases in PPT and HPT at the hands and feet (p < 0.001). Hydroxyurea use and unit increases in sleep functioning and age were associated with approximately 20.1% higher foot-PPT, 6.8% higher hand-PPT and 2.5% higher hand-HPT and foot-HPT respectively. Findings suggest that a third subphenotype with mixed VVO and HED features and worse pain sensitization may exist.

Research on the effect of information system effectiveness on employee performance has been carried out in many previous studies, but there are inconsistencies in research results regarding this relationship. Research results such as in research show that the effectiveness of the use of information systems has a positive effect on employee performance.

Evaluasi Ticketing MRT Jakarta Mobile Apss dengan Menggunakan Model DeLone dan McLean

The MRT Jakarta has three methods of ticket payment, i.e. Ticket Vending Machine, E-Money Tap Card, and by apps using MRTJ mobile apps. Some issues came from the passengers complaining about the simplicity of purchasing MRTJ ticket using this app. Passengers are confused when using this apps, while using another payment method is faster and more efficient. This research was conducted by evaluating information system success on the MRTJ mobile apps application using the Delone &amp; McLean model approach with the correlation of 6 variables, including information quality, system quality, service quality, use, user satisfaction, and net benefit with the structural equal model method using the SmartPLS application. The analysis was carried out in two stages: the measurement model (outer model) and the structural model (inner model). In the outer model test, two indicators in the system quality variable do not pass the validity requirements, so they need to be excluded from these variables. All variables are proven to have an influence on the application, but the information quality variable on the use variable and the information quality variable on user satisfaction have a tendency to negatively influence based on the path coefficient value determined by the p-value and t-statistic values so that it does not fulfil the predetermined hypothesis.

Evaluation of a Computer-Aided Clinical Decision Support System for Point-of-Care Use in Low-Resource Primary Care Settings: Acceptability Evaluation Study.

A clinical decision support system (CDSS) based on the logic and philosophy of clinical pathways is critical for managing the quality of health care and for standardizing care processes. Using such a system at a point-of-care setting is becoming more frequent these days. However, in a low-resource setting (LRS), such systems are frequently overlooked. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the user acceptance of a CDSS in LRSs. The CDSS evaluation was carried out at the Jimma Health Center and the Jimma Higher Two Health Center, Jimma, Ethiopia. The evaluation was based on 22 parameters organized into 6 categories: ease of use, system quality, information quality, decision changes, process changes, and user acceptance. A Mann-Whitney U test was used to investigate whether the difference between the 2 health centers was significant (2-tailed, 95% CI; α=.05). Pearson correlation and partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was used to identify the relationship and factors influencing the overall acceptance of the CDSS in an LRS. On the basis of 116 antenatal care, pregnant patient care, and postnatal care cases, 73 CDSS evaluation responses were recorded. We found that the 2 health centers did not differ significantly on 16 evaluation parameters. We did, however, detect a statistically significant difference in 6 parameters (P<.05). PLS-SEM results showed that the coefficient of determination, R2, of perceived user acceptance was 0.703. More precisely, the perceived ease of use (β=.015, P=.91) and information quality (β=.149, P=.25) had no positive effect on CDSS acceptance but, rather, on the system quality and perceived benefits of the CDSS, with P<.05 and β=.321 and β=.486, respectively. Furthermore, the perceived ease of use was influenced by information quality and system quality, with an R2 value of 0.479, indicating that the influence of information quality on the ease of use is significant but the influence of system quality on the ease of use is not, with β=.678 (P<.05) and β=.021(P=.89), respectively. Moreover, the influence of decision changes (β=.374, P<.05) and process changes (β=.749, P<.05) both was significant on perceived benefits (R2=0.983). This study concludes that users are more likely to accept and use a CDSS at the point of care when it is easy to grasp the perceived benefits and system quality in terms of health care professionals' needs. We believe that the CDSS acceptance model developed in this study reveals specific factors and variables that constitute a step toward the effective adoption and deployment of a CDSS in LRSs.

However, given their complex development, sound organization and design do not warrant success. This study provides a strategic analysis of the Spanish programs, as well as recommendations in an attempt to contribute to their optimization. a multidisciplinary panel of researchers, supported by the Sociedad Española de Patología Digestiva (SEPD), has performed a SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats) analysis, from which a proposal of recommendations was developed; their adequacy was judged using an adapted version of the RAND/UCLA method. 5 weaknesses, 3 threats, 5 strengths and 5 opportunities were identified, and a total of 15 recommendations were developed emphasizing aspects with room for improvement in program orientation, particularly the need to increase participation, fight variability and inequities, improve information processes and systems quality, ensure specific, adequate funding, and evaluate health results. promoting an operational collaboration framework between all the public health and care levels involved should facilitate effective communication with society regarding the benefits of taking part in population screening programs while persuading decision and policy makers of the critical importance of taking an active, determined stance regarding its implementation.

Groundwater suitability assessment for irrigation and drinking purposes by integrating spatial analysis, machine learning, water quality index, and health risk model.

An in-depth understanding of nitrate-contaminated surface water and groundwater quality and associated risks is important for groundwater management. Hydrochemical characteristics and driving forces of groundwater quality and non-carcinogenic risks of nitrate were revealed by the integrated approaches of self-organizing map analysis, spatial visualization by geography information system, entropy and irrigation water quality indices, and human health risk model. Groundwater samples were categorized into two clusters by SOM analysis. Cluster I including three samples were Ca-SO4 type and cluster II of remaining 136 samples were Ca-HCO3 type. Hydrochemical compositions of two cluster samples were dominated by water-rock interaction: (1) calcite and gypsum dissolution for cluster I samples and (2) calcite dissolution, silicate weathering, and positive cation exchange for cluster II samples. Nitrate contamination occurred in both cluster I and II samples, primarily induced by agricultural nitrogen fertilizer. The EWQI results showed that 90.97% in total groundwater samples were suitable for drinking purpose, while the IWQI results demonstrated that 65.03% in total groundwater samples were appropriate for irrigation purpose. The HHR model and Monte Carlo simulation indicated that the non-carcinogenic nitrated risk was highest in children. Exposure frequency was the most sensitive factor (86.33% in total) influencing the total non-carcinogenic risk, indicated by sensitivity analysis. Compared with the two clusters of groundwater, surface water has a shorter circulation cycle and lower ion concentrations resulting in better water quality. This study can provide scientific basis for groundwater quality evaluation in other parts of the world.
