Usability Context and Adoption of Human Capital Management Systems in Ugandan Public Universities: Application of the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology
REFNo: SS2972ES
Purpose
This study aims to investigate the influence of usability context on the adoption of HCMS in Ugandan Public Universities by using variables from Venkatesh et al.’s (2003) UTAUT theory.
Objectives
The study will focus on the following objectives:
1. To investigate the influence of performance expectancy on Ugandan public university staff behaviour intention to adopt HCMS.
2. To assess the influence of effort expectancy on Ugandan public university staff behaviour intention to adopt HCMS.
3. To investigate the influence of social influence on Ugandan public university staff behaviour intention to adopt HCMS.
4. To examine the influence of facilitating conditions on Ugandan public university staff’s actual use of HCMS.
5. To investigate the influence of Ugandan public university staff behaviour intention on their actual use of HCMS.
6. To investigate the moderating effect of user background characteristics (gender, voluntariness of use, age, and experience) on the relationship between usability context constructs and the adoption of HCMS among Ugandan public university staff.
Research Questions
The study will focus on the following research questions:
1. What are the obstacles impeding the adoption of HCMS in Ugandan public universities, and how can they be addressed?
2. What are the enabling factors facilitating the adoption of HCMS in Ugandan public universities, and how can they be enhanced?

Evaluation of the Pathways out of Poverty (POP) project in the Kitagwenda and Rakai districts of Uganda
REFNo: SS3052ES
1. Assessing the achievement of objectives: The evaluation aims to assess whether POP\'s objectives are achieved, including increasing household income to $2.25/day, reducing the average household Poverty Probability Index score to 22 or less, and ensuring that 60% of households feel their quality of life has improved within 24 months of each cohort\'s initiation.
2. Estimating causal impact: On priority outcomes for HWG - including grow and net household income, household asset endowment, coffee revenue and profits, best practice adoption and yield – the goal is to determine whether it is possible to establish causal inference on the effects of the program on these variables.
3. Conducting heterogeneous treatment effects analysis: The evaluation will analyze variances in the estimated treatment effect across different demographic groups, with a focus on geographic, economic, social and gender factors.
4. Understanding pathways of change: Core to HWG’s agenda is identifying which project components are vital for driving primary outcomes. The evaluation will aim to dissect the project’s multifaceted initiatives to delineate the most impactful pathways tied to changes in income and agricultural productivity.
5. Determining the importance of coffee: With HWG placing a strong emphasis on the role of coffee in household income, the evaluation will focus on measuring how coffee-centered interventions contribute to the broader project outcomes, tying coffee profit and revenue analyses to holistic changes in income.
6. Identifying unintended consequences: The evaluation should also scrutinize potential negative impacts on the environment, health, human rights, community dynamics, and gender equity, such as the effects of agrochemical use, deforestation, community conflicts, labor issues, and changes in household dynamics and resource control.
7. Suggesting operational improvements: Finally, the evaluation should provide actionable insights and recommendations during the implementation period, to increase the efficacy of POP.
