Purpose This study aims to reveal the factors that drive researchers to share data and to provide reference for promoting open scientific data. Design/methodology/approach Based on the theory of social capital and the theory of planned behaviour, hypotheses were proposed and the model was developed. The authors acquired 479 valid samples of Chinese researchers through questionnaires and conducted an empirical analysis via AMOS 23.0. Findings Attitudes towards data sharing are significantly and positively correlated with trust, reciprocity and social interaction, but not with a shared vision; willingness to share data is significantly and positively correlated with attitudes and perceived behavioural control, but not with subjective norms; furthermore, data quality, which performed the function of a moderating variable, was found to play a facilitating role in the above correlations. Based on the findings, suggestions for relevant entities were specified. Originality/value The study developed and validated an integrated theoretical framework, clarified the mechanism by which social capital and planned behaviour affect willingness to share data, hoping to provide reference and empirical support for subsequent studies as well as new ideas for data management and sharing.
Abstract-This study purpose was to investigate the influence of the sector type on the role of management information systems in the administrative decision-making process in River Nile StateSudan. The study adopted the technique stratified random sampling to cover 200 employees in various positions in the public and same number of respondent in the private sector. Data were collected and analyzed using frequencies count, percentages and chi square test statistics. The four hypotheses generated were tested at 0.05 level of significance; the study revealed that there was no significant difference between the managers at all levels in the public and private sector in terms of the adoption of management information systems in administrative decision-making process, also there was no significant difference between the public sector and the private sector in terms of the existence of management information system will enhance the efficiency and the effectiveness of decision making process. Therefore, the study showed there was no significant difference between the public sector and the private sector in terms of that information systems help and guided the managers in policies and strategies formulations. Finally, the study revealed there was no significance difference in terms that there are some managerial and technological obstacles that limits the uses and implementations of Information Systems in the River Nile State between the public sector and the private sector.Keywords-component; management information systems (MIS); decision making process; decision making and MIS in an organization; river nile state(RNS)/sudan
