Abstract
This study examines the pattern of relationships between dimensions of culture, qualitative and quantitative work overload, and personal innovativeness with information technology (PIIT). It suggests that dimensions of national culture and work overload are correlates of PIIT. Based on data collected from 100 U.S. college students, findings suggest an indirect relationship from two dimensions of culture (i.e. uncertainty avoidance and power distance) to PIIT and direct relationships from both qualitative and quantitative overload to PIIT. From a research standpoint, this study extends the nomological net surrounding PIIT. From a practitioner's standpoint, findings suggest that managers may mitigate the culture's influence on PIIT through management of the work environment.
