摘要:Although government agencies and fact-checking organizations issue correction messages to mitigate misinformation dissemination on social media, their efforts have been largely ineffective. Drawing on Information Manipulation Theory (IMT) and information extracted from over 84 million tweets, we examine the impact of correction messages and explore how different information updates affect their effectiveness. Our empirical approach differentiates between subpopulations of correction messages. ...

摘要:Coordination of work activities through information exchange is fundamental and increasingly occurs over technology, yet breakdowns are frequent and lead to performance declines. Taking an episodic lens and applying configurational theorizing, we identify seven technology-enabled coordination affordances that facilitate enactment of coordination episodes. Given that coordination episodes often involve combinations of these affordances, we use qualitative comparative analysis (a technique used ...

摘要:The Metaverse has emerged as a prominent topic of discussion within the technology industry, presenting a wide array of opportunities for value creation across various businesses. Nevertheless, its value potential remains uncertain due to its early development stage. Our research analyzes 29 cases to address this gap and identify key value drivers for business models of complementors in Metaverse ecosystems. We identified five primary Metaverse-enabled value drivers for complementors (immersiv...

摘要:The Metaverse represents a transformative frontier, blending physical and virtual realities into immersive, persistent digital environments. This article explores the foundational components, emerging markets, and critical challenges shaping the Metaverse's evolution. Although initial industry enthusiasm has been tempered by financial setbacks and shifting priorities toward generative artificial intelligence (AI), the Metaverse remains nascent, following a familiar hype cycle with other disrup...

摘要:Although the metaverse can offer a fusion of physical and virtual shopping experiences, there is no consensus on how multichannel retailers can capitalize on this trend by adopting extended reality (XR) online portals. Therefore, we seek to investigate the dynamic influence of XR adoption on offline store performance from the perspective of multichannel retailers. The current study also considers the boundary conditions of the XR type and offline store density. We examined 667 multichannel ret...

摘要:Digital platforms facilitate interactions among geographically distributed users which reinforce the positive network effects. However, a disproportionate increase in the contributions of users results in contribution pollution (disproportionate increase in users' contributions) and information cacophony (incoherence of contributions). Unaddressed, contribution pollution and information cacophony challenges have negative implications for platform efficiency and users' humanistic outcomes. This...

摘要:Algorithmic governance is not enough on its own to manage and protect the interests of multiple stakeholders. Therefore, platforms are increasingly seeking to involve stakeholders in their algorithmic governance, synthesizing the domains of algorithmic governance and stakeholder governance. We denote this synthesis as algorithmic stakeholder governance. In this paper, we examine algorithmic stakeholder governance in the context of content platforms focusing on the algorithmically mediated inte...

摘要:Meta-sports, which involve replicating sports in immersive virtual environments, represent a highly developed aspect of the future Metaverse. This study adopts a distributive justice lens to explore how athletes perceive the input-output principle underlying meta-sports platforms and evaluate the fairness of meta-sports competitions. Through a comparative mixed-methods study using nested data from the German Virtual Cycling Bundesliga at two time points, we find that individuals have dynamic i...

摘要:Patients using healthcare services have substantial privacy concerns when writing online reviews of their physicians that may deter them from sharing information potentially helpful for others. This gives rise to a dilemma in which patients have to trade off between privacy and social welfare, leading to fewer and less informative reviews. To examine this trade off, we study how nudging strategies together with privacy control affect reviewers' decisions related to the provision of reviews, di...

摘要:The persistent preference of patients for well-known healthcare providers inevitably leads to demand imbalances within the healthcare sector. Luckily, our research reveals that online healthcare platforms (OHPs) can address this issue by offering non-diagnostic digital services. Using an OHP-based online prescribing service as an example, our study reveals that this non-diagnostic digital service has resulted in a significant increase in consultations, particularly for less prominent hospitals...
