• W754916113 abstract "This study investigated the question: does the impact of computerization on the work unit structure come from computerization as a moderating variable with respect to task routineness or as an independent variable independent of the task being accomplished? A further question investigated was: does work unit effectiveness influence these relationships? Results of discriminant analyses between organizational units whose mission requires the predominant use of computers (IS units) as compared to organizational units that do not require the use of computers (non-IS units) found that IS units were more centralized, less complex, and perceived less environmental uncertainty. The addition of individual variables (age, education, years with the company) substantially increased the power to discriminate between IS and non-IS units. IS units were composed of younger, more educated. and shorter tenured personnel. There were no differences in task routineness between IS and non-IS units measuring that the effect of computerization was independent of the work done. The distinction between process (the impact on work) and content (the use of computers) may help resolve the conflicting results in the literature concerning the relationship between computerization and work unit structure. Introduction Background The principal purpose of this study was an attempt to Research investigating the effects of computerized in forresolve the conflicting results in the literature concerning mation systems (IS) on organizational structure has been the effect of computerization on organizational structure. concerned mainly with the effect that implementing IS in Some research finds the effect is towards increased buorganizations has on the functioning of the organizational reaucratization while other research finds the effect is system. This research has been sparse as well as contratowards looser, more decentralized structures. In this dictory (Robey, 1981; Robey, 1977; Pfeffer and Leblestudy, we compared work unit structure where computerbici, 1977; Hedberg,et al., 1975; Klatzky, 1970; Meyer, ization was the predominant teChnology (IS units) with 1968; Scharack and Barten, 1975). Some studies have the structure of work units which did not use computers found that computerization increases bureaucratization, as their predominant technology (non-IS units) in addiwhile other research suggests computerization increases tion we added the effects of individual demographic decentralization. Some researchers have found, for variables along with work unit effectiveness as additional example, that increasing computerization takes over the factors influencing differences between IS and non-IS routine work of lower and middle level organizational units. employees. thus increasing the capacity of these levels to" @default.
