Diffusion of Innovations. (4th Edtion ed.). New York: New York, N.Y.: Free Press.
Diffusion of Innovations. The Diffusion of Innovations (DOI) theory provides an appropriate framework to examine smartphone use, access, and acceptability among PWE. Developed by Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx in 1962, the DOI aims to explain the process by and rate at which an innovation is adopted in a population (Xxxxxx, 2003). Although initially proposed for the field of agriculture, the DOI has been applied and adapted to multiple disciplines since its introduction (Xxxxxx, 2003). There are four main elements to the DOI: 1) the innovation, 2) communication channels, 3) time, and 4) the social system. Following these four core elements, diffusion is defined as “the process in which an innovation is communicated through certain channels over time among the members of a social system” (Xxxxxx, 2003, p. 5).
Diffusion of Innovations. A search of the literature did not produce any studies in which diffusion of innovations was employed in the context of understanding the early childhood developmental practice in developing countries, particularly in India. As a result, it is necessary to understand the nature of early childhood developmental practices, rather than focusing on methods of diffusing proper practices to the targeted population. Xxxx and Xxxxx (2008) demonstrated the importance of understanding cultural norms through performing a formative evaluation based in diffusion of innovations theory. In order to plan and implement a communitywide collaborative to work on improving medically underserved children’s access to care, determining the nature of the social network among children’s health collaborative organization was necessary. The results of study showed that a functioning collaborative among organizations did not exist, but organizations would be willing to participate in a collaborative in order to improve child health needs and access to heath care.
