English Abstract
-This study is concerned with examining the main factors that influence the successful adoption of Decision Support Systems (DSS) in the Aqaba Special Economic Zone Authority (ASEZA).
To achieve this aim the researcher investigated a set of factors: First, the System Characteristics (Perceived Ease of Use (PEOU) and Perceived usefulness (PU)).
Second, Technical Aspects (information technology infrastructure and information systems interoperability).
Finally, Organizational Aspects (top management support (TMS), management style (MS), and organizational structure (OS)).
A questionnaire was developed and distributed to a sample of (161) respondents to collect primary data, and based on a convenience sample the response rate was about 79%.
Furthermore, the findings were analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Software (SPSS), with an R2 of 35.3%, linear Multiple Regression analysis revealed that all research variables have significant effect on successful adoption of DSS.
The results indicated that PU and IT infrastructures have a positive and significant influence on the successful adoption of DSS.
Whereas, PEOU, IS interoperability, TMS, MS, and OS have no significant influence on the successful adoption of DSS.
Finally, the findings indicated that no significant statistical differences existed between respondents’ perceptions towards DSS adoption in terms of their demographic characteristics.
Based on the research findings and conclusions, a number of recommendations and future research suggestions are proposed.
