Configurational Theory

Configurational theorising is about transcending the qualitative-quantitative divide by formulating formal statements explaining how causally relevant conditions combine into configurations associated with the outcome of interest.

Resource-Based Theory

The resource-based theory (RBT) is an influential approach in strategic management. It has been widely applied as a managerial framework to determine vital resources for a firm to achieve a sustained competitive advantage. The theory provides an essential framework to explain and predict the fundamentals of a company’s performance and competitive advantage.

Social Capital Theory

Social capital refers to the structure and quality of social relationships and constitutes a positive product of social interactions that can be a source of benefits for individuals, social groups and the society as a whole.

Technology Acceptance Model

The technology acceptance model (TAM) explains the acceptance of information systems by individuals. TAM postulates that the acceptance of technology is predicted by the users’ behavioural intention, which is, in turn, determined by the perception of technology usefulness in performing the task and perceived ease of its use.
