摘要：Live stream selling has surged as an innovative form of e-commerce, supporting high social interactivity and fast-paced sales for large-scale audiences. However, live streamers must manage complex, concurrent tasks- such as presenting products, engaging with viewers, and employing various sales tactics to facilitate consumer purchases, while dealing with uncertainty in foreseeing viewers' reactions and time pressure for selling products. This study examines the role of real-time sales data in ...

摘要：This research examines how digital platforms influence the performance of nonbinding contracts. Businesses in many industries with high uncertainty, such as trucking freight and construction, simultaneously use nonbinding contracts, which impose no legal sanctions for refusals, and spot markets, which facilitate real-time, flexible transactions with market-determined prices. Understanding the conditions under which nonbinding contracts perform is a major concern in these industries. Leveraging...

摘要：Data donations, where individuals are encouraged to donate their personal information, have the potential to advance medical research and help limit the spread ofpandemics, among other benefits. The decision to donate data is fundamentally a privacy decision. In this research, we build on the privacy calculus, a model describing privacy risks and benefits, and examine the impact ofprivacy concerns on data donation decisions, highlighting the role of societal benefits in privacy decisions. Base...

摘要：While a large body of information systems (IS) literature has investigated the antecedents and consequences of data breaches in organizations, we do not have a good understanding of whether a data breach has a material impact on individuals whose private information is compromised and how much damage it causes. We overcome empirical challenges in investigating the impact of data breaches on individual victims by utilizing a unique natural experimental setting that allows us to credibly identif...

摘要：We offer a new perspective on trust formation in smart contracts on blockchain that is based on deduction rather than induction. This shift in perspective allows us to explore the boundaries of trust in IT systems, analyze the conditions under which trust becomes dispensable, and unpack the sociotechnical complexity of supposedly trust-free systems. Through this approach, we introduce three key concepts: deductive certainty, a state in which an individual has full knowledge of the other party'...

摘要：Although an extensive information systems literature has explored the economic benefits of information technology (IT) investments, how these benefits are distributed between male and female IT workers has not been as closely examined. This paper bridges this gap by addressing two questions: (1) Do women and men have similar opportunities to acquire skills related to new IT innovations? (2) How do these differences affect the gender pay gap? We argue that women are underrepresented in roles th...

摘要：Given the rise in the frequency and cost of data security threats, it is critical to understand whether and how companies strategically adapt their operational workforce in response to data breaches. We study hiring in the aftermath of data breaches by combining information on data breach events with detailed firm-level job posting data. Using a staggered difference-in-differences approach, we show that breached firms significantly increase their demand for cybersecurity workers. Furthermore, ...

摘要：Focusing on imbrication change as conducted by designers during design and development, we undertook a 2.5-year long case study to examine how 10 hospitals configured technology and planned routine changes as they sought to transform their organizations. Our observations revealed a phenomenon we call ruptures, defined as situations that occur due to breakdowns in the process of IT-enabled change. Ruptures allow us to unpack the temporal process of identifying and resolving instances of disrupt...

摘要：This study examines how the mergers and acquisitions (M&As) of a firm influence its number of data breaches. Drawing from complexity theory and matching theory, we propose that M&As increase data breaches and this effect is contingent on M&A diversity (dissimilarity between the parent and target firms). Based on the 18-year panel data (2004-2021) of 5,072 public firms in the United States, we find that more M&As by a firm lead to more data breaches. Moreover, we reveal that the number of data ...

摘要：As digital platforms evolve, app developers do more than passively participate; they actively reshape the competitive landscape through boundary-shifting moves (BSMs). By modularizing boundary resources at different levels of the technology stack, developers can provoke, delay, or neutralize competitive responses in hypercompetitive app markets. Drawing on an empirical analysis of mobile apps launched by leading Chinese internetfirms, we uncover a striking asymmetry in how rival developers rea...
