My Dear Mentors, Colleagues and Friends,
I would like to let you know some of the achievements that I have accomplished during my Fulbright Research Project/NSC International Research Program at Georgia Tech (GT) and Fulbright Lecture Tour encompassing five universities in USA. All of the relevant results have been organized and posted on the internet; my hope is that this visit will also start a dynamic research collaboration in the future.
1. Study on Adoption and People's Selection Processes
I worked with Prof. Dave Goldsman, Joel Sokol, and Craig Tovey at GT and we
teamed up as a research group having special interest in a new approach to
explore “Adoption Behavior” and its extended theory on “People’s Selection
Processes”.
Detailed information and a web-based group-work mechanism are available at:

2. Cybercitizen Behavior and e-Commerce Strategy
I also met many colleagues who are interested in internet research at
different institutes across the United States. We worked on some ideas to
compare cross-cultural findings and to develop possible global grounded theory
in this field.
Ongoing work is available at:
