Abstract

The main purpose of this study was to discuss the development, focus and criticisms of the literature on public sector IA and then propose directions for future studies. The study was to review 77 articles to discuss possible data sources, theories, types of organizational respondents, research instruments, and evaluating findings. Future research should examine the differences of IA in the public sector across countries, using theory for analysis, giving evidence regarding risk management and fruitless and wasteful expenditure, higher emphasis on the acquisition of IT skills, the effect of cultural, institutional and demographical characteristics in IA, and the design rigorous models to predict IA effectiveness.
