The publication of Open Government Data (OGD) is expected to deliver economic value creation through innovation. In any OGD-based value creation, it is essential to formulate a value proposition (VP). However, previous literature has devoted little attention to the tools that support the formulation of OGD-based VP, and none has evaluated the...

Purpose: It has been underscored in the extant literature that open government data (OGD) has not percolated across the length and breadth of any country, let alone the awareness of the OGD among the stakeholders themselves. In this vein, this study aims to underline the reasons as to why OGD promotion merits consideration apart from underlining...

Zhang, Ying (author), Janssen, M.F.W.H.A. (author)

Government resources used for opening data and citizen engagement with open government data (OGD) are expected to have a mutual influence, but this has not been empirically investigated. Therefore, this paper investigates this mutual relationship by measuring both governmental resources and citizen engagement based on resource-based theory. The...

Evaluation of a Pilot Game to Change Civil Servants’ Willingness Towards Open Data Policy Making

Kleiman, F. (author), Janssen, M.F.W.H.A. (author), Meijer, Sebastiaan (author)

The adoption of open data policy-making by governments is limited due to different types of constraints. Civil servants are reluctant to open their data to the public for many reasons. The lack of knowledge of benefits that can be produced by the release of data and the overestimation of risks and operational complexity seems to decrease...

Citizens’ Trust in Open Government Data: A Quantitative Study about the Effects of Data Quality, System Quality and Service Quality

Purwanto, A. (author), Zuiderwijk-van Eijk, A.M.G. (author), Janssen, M.F.W.H.A. (author)

Previous research assumes that poor quality of Open Government Data (OGD), OGD portals, and the services provided for OGD may result in reduced trust of citizens in OGD. However, studies that empirically test this assumption are scarce. Using the Information Systems (IS) Success Model as a theoretical basis, this study aims to examine the...

Changing civil servants’ behaviour concerning the opening of governmental data.: Evaluating the effect of a game by comparing civil servants’ intentions before and after a game intervention

Kleiman, F. (author), Janssen, M.F.W.H.A. (author), Meijer, Sebastiaan (author), Jansen, S.J.T. (author)

Open data policies are increasingly being adopted by governments. However, civil servants find it challenging to comply with open data policies. Gaming can help civil servants to practise opening data and can change their behaviour to support the opening of more data. In this article, the effect of playing a game is evaluated in an experiment...

The public expects government institutions to open their data to enable society to reap the benefits of these data. However, governments are often reluctant to disclose their data due to possible disadvantages. These disadvantages, at the same time, can be circumstances by processing the data before disclosing. Investments are needed to be...
