摘要:We compare the career outcomes of MBA graduates with attractive and plainlooking faces. Our findings reveal that attractive MBA graduates have a higher probability of holding more desirable jobs compared with their plain-looking counterparts 15 years after obtaining their MBA degree, resulting in a 15-year attractiveness premium of 2.4%. This premium corresponds to an annual salary differential of $2,508. Additionally, we observed an extreme attractiveness premium of over 11% for the top 10% m...

摘要:Disasters usually induce sudden changes to the work and home environment with significant consequences for workers' labor market outcomes (i.e., unemployment, work absence, and layoff). Prior literature suggests that female workers tend to be more affected by such changes (e.g., the limited availability of childcare and/or domestic services) as female workers often (or are expected to) shoulder more childcare and/or household responsibilities. As a result, disasters tend to affect female worke...

摘要:Despite the increasing interest in gamified systems and excitement about their potential positive impact on user engagement, a few studies have started to note gamification failures, which can result from user maladaptive behaviors, or behaviors directed at misappropriating gamified systems. In this research, we examine how such maladaptive behaviors can result from design issues of gamified systems and how such behaviors impact task performance. To date, little is known about design issues wh...

摘要:Although some scholars raise alarm about societal harm emerging from Big Data practices, critical social theory (CST) Information Systems research on the structures and dynamics driving Big Data practices is rare. In this research commentary, we interrogate how tech firms use social practices and platform design to strategically manipulate individuals into accepting datafication and data assetization that accrue positive data network effects for themselves and mostly negative data network effe...

摘要:Information systems (IS) scholars have pursued phenomenon-specific research to meaningfully engage with and contribute to addressing societal grand challenges (GCs). Although such efforts are invaluable, a broader framework that identifies generalized organizing problems in tackling GCs and reveals promising pathways for digital technologies to add value in addressing them could help establish an agenda for impactful IS research. In this article, we offer such a framework by drawing on Ostrom'...

摘要:Review spammers can harm the trustworthy environment of online platforms by purposefully posting unauthentic ratings and comments for products or online merchants, with the aim of gaining improper benefits. Although many methods have been proposed to resolve the spammer detection problem, several challenges, such as collusion recognition, label scarcity, and biased distributions, are still persistent and call for further investigation. Building on prevalent collusive spamming behaviors and the...

摘要:The use of digital contact tracing (DCT) during the COVID-19 pandemic serves as a prime example of how government agencies and public authorities are leveraging information technologies to address complex societal challenges. However, during the period in which the study was conducted, the rate of voluntary adoption of DCT among individuals in the United States proved to be both low and uneven, falling short of the critical mass required for effective containment of viral transmission. Despite...
