This study examines factors influencing the adoption of OGD among government agencies in Taiwan to fill the existing knowledge gap. Accordingly, based on previous research on innovation adoption, we develop a research model that integrates the technology–organization–environment (TOE) framework and the following four factors that are central to adoption decisions: perceived benefits, perceived barriers, organizational readiness, and external pressures. We examined this model through survey data from 342 government agencies of the Executive Yuan in Taiwan. The results show a significant positive relationship among perceived benefits, organizational readiness, and external pressures and the adoption of OGD by government agencies. This study creates a valuable reference for other countries in the early stages of OGD initiatives and has significant implications for governmental policy practitioners. |
