“…What would happen if people learned that others are making money from their PI? An experiment conducted by Cvrcek, Vashek et al (2006) on location data showed that, when study participants learn that their PI will be used not only for academic but also for commercial purposes, 25-57% of participants increased the amount of money that they wanted to receive for study participation. The desire to participate in the commercial exploitation of one's PI assets may be due to fairness perceptions.…”

“…A number of recent empirical studies conducted by information privacy scholars have examined that in a variety of contexts (Acquisti, John, & Loewenstein, 2013), from the disclosure of personal information online (Hann, Hui, Lee, & Png, 2007) to location data (Cvrcek, Kumpost, Matyas, & Danezis, 2006) and beyond (for thorough reviews of information privacy research, see Bélanger & Crossler, 2011;Cvrcek et al, 2006;Hong & Thong, 2013;Li, 2012;Pavlou, 2011;and Smith et al, 2011). Yet there is still substantial work to be done.…”

Observation is key to management scholarship and practice. Yet a holistic view of its role in management has been elusive, in part due to shifting terminology. The current popularity of the term "transparency" provides the occasion for a thorough review, which finds (a) a shift in the object of observation from organizational outcomes to the detailed individual activities within them; (b) a shift from people observing the technology to technology observing people; and (c) a split in the field, with managers viewing observation almost entirely from the observer's perspective, leaving the perspective of the observed to the realm of scholarly methodology courses and philosophical debates on privacy. I suggest how the literature on transparency and related literatures might be improved with research designed in light of these trends.KEYWORDS: transparency, privacy, performance, organizations, management theory ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS: I thank Julie Battilana, Ethan Burris, Tim Earle, Amy Edmondson, John Elder, Elizabeth Hansen, Rosabeth Moss Kanter, Joshua Margolis, Tsedal Neeley, Nitin Nohria, Shefali Patil, Kathy Qu, Ryan Raffaelli, Lakshmi Ramarajan, and Bradley Staats for feedback on prior versions of this work; Jim Detert, Sim Sitkin, and two anonymous reviewers for insightful and developmental feedback; and the Harvard Business School for financial support.Please cite as: Bernstein, E. S. Making transparency transparent: The evolution of observation in management theory. Academy of Management Annals, 11(1): 217-266. 2We are increasingly observed and observing at work. Fifty years ago, a typical manager might have tracked production, revenue, and expenses against budget and periodically observed workers during in-person audits (e.g., Dalton, 1959). Today, advances in technology, from smart cameras to wearable tracking devices, make possible a kind of real-time "SuperVision" (Gilliom & Monahan, 2012) far beyond any level of observability envisioned 50 years ago or when Frederick Taylor (1911) originally promoted managerial oversight through scientific management.Public attention is captured by extreme examples of observation at work, like handheld computers (Amazon) or wearable bands (Tesco) tracking and optimizing employees' every move (Head, 2014;Kantor & Streitfeld, 2015;Rawlinson, 2013), embedded sensors in large fleets of company-owned trucks (e.g., UPS) recording hundreds of measurements to capture every action of the truck and its driver to unearth and enforce time-saving tactics (Goldstein, 2014;Levy, 2015), cameras at Las Vegas casino Harrah's tracking the smiles of card dealers and wait staff as a proxy for customer service quality (Peck, 2013), point-of-sale systems scraping every transaction for signs of employee fraud (Pierce, Snow, & McAfee, 2015), and RFID (radiofrequency identification)-enabled workspaces automatically capturing factory worker progress (Ranganathan, 2015), how long employees spend at their desks (Zillman, 2016), and even who does and does not use hand-soap and hand-sanitizer dispensers ...

Abstract-This is a conceptual paper to study the role of privacy in the behavior model for persuasive ubiquitous technology. The study reviews the literature on the factors of persuasive technology, particularly in ubiquitous and pervasive computing. These factors are motivation, ability and trigger.The paper goes on to analyze privacy factor that also plays important role in ubiquitous technology. In theory, although there are some models that explain persuasive technology, including Fogg Behavioral Model that is highly referenced, the inclusion of the privacy, especially in the area of location-based services (LBS) is almost none. Therefore, building on the importance of upholding user privacy, the research is proposed to extend Fogg's model. Several methods will be deployed. First, a quantitative survey to assess the current users' awareness of the persuasive and manipulative part of the technology. Second, a qualitative technique to gather more inclusive understanding of the issue from the viewpoints of users, developer and government agencies. Third, based on the findings, a model will be developed and tested via a quasi experiment that deploys an intervention module. The research is significant and important for the society and national development in several aspects; 1) promoting a comprehensive data protection policy development of cyber security, 2) providing rules to persuasive technology developer on the dos' and don'ts, and 3) educating the society about cyber ethics and privacy.
