基于全国大规模数字转型的实证数据，研究了数字责任与数字转型之间的动态相互作用，为信息系统理论提供了四项核心贡献，包括强调数字责任在当代数字转型中的首要作用、细化其概念化、提出六种动态相互作用以及未来研究方向。
Abstract As digital transformation progresses, research broadens its perspective to not only focus on the positive effects but also on the adverse impacts of the increasing use of digital technologies. Against this backdrop, the issue of being responsibly digital moves to the foreground in research and practice. The need for further research on the conceptualization of digital responsibility and its role in the context of digital transformation has been indicated by the literature. In this paper, we empirically investigate the interplay of digital responsibility and digital transformation in the context of large-scale digital transformation. Based on our results, we derive four core contributions for IS theory as we highlight the prime role of digital responsibility in contemporary digital transformation processes, refine the conceptualization of digital responsibility in the context of digital transformation, propose six dynamic interplays of digital responsibility and digital transformation, and present promising avenues for further research on this increasingly relevant phenomenon.
