Towards the development of measures of perceived benefits and compatibility of EDI: a comparative assessment of competing first order factor models
本研究开发并测试了测量电子数据交换（EDI）感知收益和兼容性的量表，发现模型能有效捕捉感知直接收益、间接收益和组织兼容性，但技术兼容性测量效果不佳。
This study describes the development and testing of sets of items to capture constructs that are widely used in the study of electronic data interchange (EDI) adoption and integration. They are the perceived benefits of EDI and the extent to which EDI is compatible with existing organizational practices. Sets of items to measure both perceived direct and perceived indirect benefits are assessed, as are sets of items to measure two types of compatibility: organizational and technological. Findings indicate that the model adequately captures each of the proposed constructs except technological compatibility. Conclusions and directions for future research are presented.
