Thesis (Ph.D.)--New York University, 1999.

This research examines the effects of a technology change on employee performance. The effects are studied using independent variables similar to those found in Ajzen's (1991) Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). It was hypothesized that attitude, subjective norm (i.e., social pressure) and perceived behavioral control would influence behavioral intentions, performance quantity and performance quality on a new technology task. In addition, it was hypothesized that subjective norm would interact with attitude. The hypotheses were tested in a controlled, experimental setting using an organizational simulation design.

520 $a This research examines the effects of a technology change on employee performance. The effects are studied using independent variables similar to those found in Ajzen's (1991) Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). It was hypothesized that attitude, subjective norm (i.e., social pressure) and perceived behavioral control would influence behavioral intentions, performance quantity and performance quality on a new technology task. In addition, it was hypothesized that subjective norm would interact with attitude. The hypotheses were tested in a controlled, experimental setting using an organizational simulation design.
520 $a Unlike much of the past correlational research testing TPB, attitude, subjective norm and perceived behavioral control were experimentally manipulated to better understand their direct effects on behavior. This research (1) tests the effects postulated by Ajzen (1991) and other researchers in a controlled setting, (2) extends our understanding of the theoretical framework, (3) explains the effects of such variables on behavioral performance, and (4) provides a foundation for understanding the impact of technology changes on performance.
520 $a Results indicate that, contrary to that proposed by the Theory of Planned Behavior, main effects of attitude, subjective norm and perceived behavioral control were not the primary determinants of behavior. Instead, these factors interacted on the behavioral criteria. It was found that high perceived behavioral control, in conjunction with a subjective norm to use a new technology, lead to high performance quantity on the target behavior. However, it was also found that this increase in productivity came at the cost of performance quality on a competing, non-technology task. On this competing task, an attitude by subjective norm interaction occurred when perceived behavioral control was low. In this case, a subjective norm to use a new technology in the presence of a negative attitude led to poor quality on the non-technology task. When perceived control was high, the attitude by subjective norm interaction was mitigated.
520 $a In conclusion, this research begins to uncover the complex relationships between the three independent variables and how those relationships impact performance.
