摘要:An increasing number of companies have started to implement corporate knowledge-sharing communities. Consistent with the observation in the offline setting, employees are less likely to share knowledge with individuals who have higher job ranks (i.e., higher-ups) in corporate communities such as online wikis and discussion groups. Given the importance of managers' engagements in the community and the needs for knowledge sharing across the hierarchy, we examine whether such observation persists...

摘要:Firms have been sharing transactional data with business partners ever since electronic data interchange was introduced to the retail industry in the 1980s. The potential benefits of data sharing notwithstanding, there has been continued reluctance on the part of data owners to share their data, for fear of sensitive information potentially making its way to competitors. Approaches that can help hide sensitive information could alleviate such concerns and increase the number of firms that are ...

摘要:This paper examines complementarity between clinical health information technology (HIT) applications and their effects on three hospital-level performance measures: clinical quality, experiential quality, and healthcare cost. We emphasize two aspects of HIT use in hospitals. First, we focus on whether HIT applications are used to perform primary or support clinical functions. Contingent on whether the use of HIT applications is for performing only primary functions or both primary and support...

In this research, the focus is on client firms' perceived legitimacy of vendors, termed vendor legitimacy. Specifically, building on institutional theory, v...

摘要:Companies face a trade-off between creating stronger privacy protection policies for consumers and employing more sophisticated data collection methods. Justice-driven privacy protection outlines a method to manage this trade-off. We built on the theoretical lens of justice theory to integrate justice provision with key privacy protection features and conceptualized the extent to which these features affect privacy concerns and information disclosure behavior. Notably, we proposed an informati...

摘要:In this paper, we study an important problem of parsing contextual information from user reviews for recommendation purposes. First, we study the ways contextual information is expressed in user reviews and obtain novel insights about it. Among other things, we demonstrate that such type of information tends to appear at the beginning of the review, in longer sentences, in the sentences written in the past tense or using gerund form, and in the sentences referring to some points in time. Secon...

摘要:Digital ventures typically face significant growth expectations. A common response is to extend the current operations into new areas through repurposing its digital core (e.g., search engine, data mining technique, platform, or voice interface). Grounded in prior literature, we surmise that the high versatility of the digital venture's digital core facilitates such an extension by reducing cost and increasing speed. However, we know little about the process by which digital ventures draw on t...
