"Getrost" Vergessen: Determinanten und Auswirkungen einer vertrauensvollen Nutzung von Informationssystemen in Organisationen
2016 - 2019: "Getrost Vergessen": Motivationale und emotionale Einflüsse auf intentionales Vergessen in Organisationen
- What is this project about?
The increasing availability of information in organizations due to digitization leads to decision making under uncertainty and requires an adaptation in handling information. Information systems (IS) can support successful knowledge management by providing users with effective and flexible centralized information so that less relevant information fades into the background. ISs are thus considered as triggers of intentional forgetting in organizations.
- What are the results of the project so far?
The following publications have been published in the first phase of the project:

- What are the objectives of the project?
- Identification of motivational and emotional factors that inhibit or promote intentional forgetting in organizations
- Derivation of design principles for personalisable IS for individual support of intentional forgetting
- Development of an IS prototype, which allows users to trust the system in order to "confidently" forget about it.
Intentional forgetting is operationalized by the extent of use of IS.
- How can organizations use the results?
The individualized provision of relevant information in the use of IS can save resources and significantly increase the quality and speed of decisions by focusing on key decision-making criteria. Besides, the use of IS can convey security and reduce stress among users. The design of IS in the sense of intentional forgetting thus offers considerable advantages for organizations.
