摘要:Digitalization worldwide has created a surge of e-waste, and a considerable amount of it is shipped from developed to developing countries, where e-waste is mainly handled by the informal recycling sector. This practice creates environmental injustice, a type of social injustice that occurs when a particular social group suffers from disproportionate exposure to environmental risks. However, information systems (IS) research has largely overlooked this social injustice issue and the communitie...

摘要:Crowdfunding platforms are believed to create a more equal-opportunity environment for fundraising by removing entrance barriers found in traditional entrepreneurial markets. Our work investigates whether in creating more equal opportunities for entrepreneurs to enter the market, crowdfunding platforms also create a more equal distribution of funds across ventures. To this end, we utilized a natural experiment in the form of apolicy change on Kickstarter.com that resulted in opening the market...

摘要:Social media influencer marketing has grown substantially in the last decade and is a major advertising channel for many brands. Social media influencers weave sponsored posts with organic content into their feeds, which raises concerns among regulators and consumer advocates that users may not be able to clearly distinguish between sponsored and organic influencer content. Thus, regulators often mandate the explicit disclosure of sponsored content. However, there is little empirical evidence ...

摘要:Laws requiring firms to disclose privacy breaches to their customers have been adopted extensively worldwide. However, the manner in which these laws affect the security protection behavior of firms disclosing a data breach is poorly understood. To shed light on this issue, we leveraged institutional theory and examined how U.S. state data breach notification laws (DBNLs), under which firms must notify customers of personal information breaches, influenced firm-level incidence of security brea...

摘要:Software firms are increasingly adopting an open source strategy, allowing them to leverage the effort exerted by the open source community toward improving software quality. In addition to embracing a proprietary or fully open source strategy, several firms choose a partial openness strategy wherein only certain parts of the code are open source while the rest is proprietary. Specifically, when adopting a partial openness strategy, a firm may choose to make the core software code open source ...

摘要:Usability the extent to which a system can be operated to achieve specified goals with effectiveness, efficiency, and satisfaction is a hallmark of many successful systems. Identifying usability concerns with existing measures, however, can be problematic. We use biased competition theory (BCT) to explain how interfaces with low usability create attentional interference, which can be measured through mouse movement efficiency (MME). We tested our hypotheses in four studies. Study 1 manipulates...

摘要:Firms generate innovations to profit from market opportunities, which are newly identified customer needs not yet being met in the market. The rising complexity of market opportunities requires collaboration among multiple partner firms. However, this multipartner collaboration increases transaction and production costs when generating innovations. To address these challenges, incumbents build B2B innovation platforms with mechanisms to reduce partners' transaction and production costs. We do ...

摘要:Understanding how technostressors lead to technostrain, such as high job burnout or low job performance, has become a core question in information systems (IS) research and practice. To unpack this relationship, we build on general systems theory to argue that the next step for technostress research is to go beyond examining the independent influences of technostressors and discuss how their interdependencies lead to technostrain. To illustrate our argument empirically, we use fuzzy-set qualit...

摘要:Firms must allocate resources effectively to cope with uncertainty, which can manifest as a disruption and an opportunity. Although information technology (IT) is a means to cope with uncertainty, chief executive officers (CEOs) may not always support IT investments due to the risky nature of IT, especially when facing uncertain conditions. While prior research suggests that CEO long-term compensation positively incentivizes IT investments, little is known about how different loci of uncertain...
