The First 10 Years of NeuroIS: A Systematic Literature Review of NeuroIS Publications (2007 - 2017)

Abstract

NeuroIS is an emerging and promising academic field that has attracted increasing attention. The year 2017 signifies the 10 th year of existence of NeuroIS as a research field in information systems area. In this study, we conduct a systematic literature review of the NeuroIS academic research publications of last 10 years (2007-2017). As a result, we categorize the existent NeuroIS literature into 8 groups, explore the correlations among various NeuroIS concepts/ constructs, and demonstrate how the study enhances our understanding of the granulated interrelationships between pairs of NeuroIS elements. The implications of the result to the NeuroIS research community are discussed.

HICSS Panel Report on Cognitive Foreshadowing: Next Steps in Applying Neuroscience and Cognitive Science to Information Systems Research

“…Human cognition has been a cornerstone of the information systems (IS) discipline. While academia has a long and ongoing tradition of measuring human cognition through abstract cognitive tasks, in the last decade, the ability to measure human cognition in IS through more concrete neuroimaging measures has increased dramatically (Mamun, David, Mai, Kim, & Parsons, 2018;Riedl, Fischer, & Léger, 2017). These methodological tools have the ability to uncover how individuals process interactions with IT with great temporal or spatial specificity and, thus, allow researchers to have the ability to locate specific phenomena, unveil cognitive strengths and limitations of virtual interactions, elucidate limitations in the design of IT, and so on.…”
