| dc.description.abstract | Organizational Implementation of Information Systems Innovations (OIISI) Framework was developed
in the context of University in Kenya and can be used to understand the implementation of Information
Systems (IS) Innovations in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). A quantitative approach to research
was taken to determine the degree of associations and relationships in the OIISI framework in HEIs
and, in so doing, aimed at providing researchers and practitioners with a valid and reliable instrument
that covered all the key constructs identified by the framework. In this study, data was collected from
identified respondents in some selected HEIs that have implemented IS or are in the implementation
process, analyzed and the outcomes presented, thereby validating the relationships. Judgmental and
convenience sampling design was used to select HEIs. A questionnaire based on a seven point Likert
scale was administered to different participants of IS implementation in selected HEIs in Kenya and
confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) used to determine regression coefficients between constructs of
interest. The Chi-square goodness-of-fit test was used to test model adequacy together with other
goodness of fit statistics. The null hypothesis for this test was that the model adequately accounts for
the data, while the alternative was that there is a significant amount of discrepancy. To test the
hypothesis, correlation coefficients were found, hypothesis tested and coefficient of determination
calculated for explanation purposes. Results of this study indicates a correlation coefficient of 0.6 between Managerial Intervention (MI) and Implementation Process (IP) which is positive and
significant at the 0.01 level which indicates a statistically significant relationship between MI and IP. | en_US |
