Abstract

İlk olarak 2008 yılında ortaya çıkan Blockchain teknolojisi o tarihten itibaren gerek akademisyenlerin gerekse profesyonellerin ilgi odağı haline gelmiştir. Blockchain teknolojisinin, kripto para, sağlık bilgi sistemleri, tedarik zinciri yönetimi, insan kaynakları yönetimi, elektronik noter, müzik endüstrisi, gayrimenkul yönetimi gibi birçok alanda uygulanması mümkündür. Kullanım alanı bu kadar geniş olmasına rağmen Blockchain teknolojisi ile ilgili literatür henüz yeni ve kısıtlıdır. Teknoloji geliştirme çalışmalarında özellikle de Blockchain teknolojisi alanında yeniliğin kabulünü kurumsal düzeyde araştıran çok az sayıda çalışma bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışma yenilik yayılım teorisi, teknoloji-organizasyon-çevre çerçevesi ve kurumsal teori entegrasyonundan yola çıkarak kurumsal düzeyde blockchain teknolojisinin geliştirilmesi ile ilgili bir model önermektedir.

PROPOSING A MODEL FOR UNDERSTANDING BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY ADOPTION IN ORGANIZATIONS

Abstract

Blockchain technology was first introduced in 2008, and since then it has been a subject of interest for both academicians and practitioners. Blockchain has many applications in business areas, such as: cryptocurrency, health information systems, electronic notary, supply chain management, human resources management, music industry, real estate management and much more. Despite the growing interest in blockchain technology, the literature regarding it is relatively new and limited. In the context of technology adoption studies, especially in blockchain field, there are limited number of studies that investigate innovation adoption at the organizational level. This paper proposes a model that integrates diffusion of innovation theory, technology-organization-environment framework, and institutional theory for future blockchain adoption studies at the organizational level.

Keywords

Technology adoption, Diffusion of Innovation Theory (DOI), Institutional theory, Technology-Organization-Environment Model (TOE), Blockchain.
