摘要:Cyberbullying on social networking sites (SNSs) escalates when bystanders join in the bullying. Although researchers have recognized the harmful consequences of joining in cyberbullying behaviors, little is known about the role of information technology (IT) and its underlying mechanisms in fueling such negative group behavior on SNSs. To address this research gap, we develop and test an integrative model that explains bystanders' joining-in cyberbullying behaviors on SNSs. Based on the theore...

摘要:Heuristics are mental shortcuts that have ubiquitous influences on decision making. We investigate whether and how different heuristics have distinct effects in the context of peer-to-peer (P2P) lending. Drawing on theories on the roles that heuristics play in decision making, we conjecture that when borrowers use different heuristics based on distinct motives to set their loan amounts, their funding success and repayment performance also differ. Using detailed P2P lending data from a Chinese ...

摘要:The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of online learning. As learner autonomy is relatively high in online environments, learners must engage in self-regulated learning (SRL) to achieve optimal learning outcomes. Because most learners are unable to consistently engage in SRL, gamification interventions are being implemented to improve SRI, engagement; however, mixed results cast doubt on the efficacy of this approach. Massively open online courses (MOOCs), a type of online learn...

摘要:At the core of reward-based crowdfunding (RBC) is the reward menu. Carefully constructed reward menus can impact fundraising success significantly. For example, an oft-discussed approach to influencing purchasing decisions is introducing an irrelevant option into a consumer's choice set-a decoy option-making another, often more valuable, option more attractive. This phenomenon is also known as the attraction effect. Prior research, however, has found mixed evidence for its occurrence in applie...

摘要:This study presents a systematic comparison of methods for individual treatment assignment, a general problem that arises in many applications and that has received significant attention fromeconomists, computer scientists, and social scientists. We group the various methods proposed in the literature into three general classes of algorithms (or metalearners): learning models to predict outcomes (the O-learner), learning models to predict causal effects (the E-learner), and learning models to ...

摘要:We examine how social sharing of consumers' brand purchases affects brand competition in a market where different types of consumers, characterized by their distinct personal characteristics (i.e., personalities, hobbies, and lifestyles) and brand preferences (i.e., being loyal to one of two horizontally differentiated brands or neither), all desire accurate public perception of their true type. Social sharing of a consumer's brand purchase allows the public to infer the consumer's type, but s...

摘要:Topic modeling methods such as latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) are powerful tools for analyzing massive amounts of textual data. They have been used extensively in information systems (IS) and business discipline research to identify latent topics for data exploration and as a feature engineering mechanism to derive new variables for analyses. However, existing topic modeling approaches are mostly unsupervised and only leverage textual data, while ignoring additional useful metadata often as...

摘要:Many of today's software systems are created by leveraging ecosystems consisting of heterogeneous complementors and hub firms. In fact, the reliance on ecosystems is prevalent in the enterprise resource planning (ERP) domain, where larger ERP vendors form collaborative relationships with smaller industry-specific vendors to co-create value for themselves and their customers. However, value creation and destruction processes are often intertwined. A key motivation for this study is to shed ligh...

摘要:We investigate the role of frictions in determining the efficiency and bidding behavior in a generalized second-price auction-the most preferred mechanism for sponsored-search advertisements. In particular, we take a twofold approach of Q-learning-based computational simulations in conjunction with human-subject experiments. We find that the lower valued advertisers (who do not win the auction) exhibit highly exploratory behavior. Moreover, we find the presence of market frictions moderates th...

摘要:As platform owners interact with end users and complementors, their demand side characteristics and performance affect the overall value creation of ecosystems. This research investigated how the emergence of popular complements on a mobile communication platform impacts the usage of other complementary products by the platform's end users and how platform owners can benefit from such demand spillovers. We identified two different forms of demand spillovers (i.e., backward and forward) and con...
