Abstract :
In the recent past, researchers have shown conflicting results regarding the returns to IT investment. Some researchers posit that the equivocal results of IT investment are due to inconsistent measurement of firm performance following IT investment. We propose to use meta-analysis to summarize and synthesize the patterns of relatively consistent relations from empirical studies of IT investment returns during the last decade.
