Resumo

Diversos estudos visam compreender os fatores que determinam se uma inovação em tecnologia da informação (TI) será bem recebida e efetivamente utilizada. O gênero tem sido apontado como um desses fatores, mas seu papel tem sido objeto de conclusões diversas e contraditórias. Este artigo realiza um estudo empírico acerca de algumas das justificativas mais usualmente aceitas pelos que argumentam uma influência significante do gênero. Os resultados apontam para a exis-tência de um papel significante do gênero, mas não encontra evidências que sustentem as justificativas usualmente emprega-das. Os resultados apontam, de fato, para um novo mecanismo que propomos neste artigo.
