Factors that hamper the adoption of egovernment

In order to study the impact of public officials on the adoption of eGovernment, a quantitative research, based on survey, has been carried out on the employees of four public institutions. The results highlighted behavioral aspects that can prevent or at least aggravate the assimilation of eGovernment. Data security, the endowment of the population with computer systems or the reduction of the number of employees are the prime factors that can affect the implementation of electronic mediation between public administration and citizens.
