摘要：In recent years, there has been a heated discussion on opinion polarization on social media platforms. Extant research attributes the emergence of echo chambers to higher exposure to information from users' existing social networks, which consists of like-minded others and argues that the provision of information from outside users' networks could alleviate opinion polarization. In this paper, we formulate a hierarchical Bayesian learning model to investigate the impact of replies, one of the ...

This is an important question, as many firms adopt green IT standards without considering the fit with their organizational strategies and therefore face uncertain or mixed outcomes. We address this question by developing a theory-driven conceptual framework and collecting archival data on green IT standards and green IT organizationa...

摘要：Online business-to-business auctions for used IT products have emerged as a viable market for finding a second life for these products, rather than having them end up in landfills as e-waste. As part of the growing secondary market landscape, these online B2B auctions are significantly affected by adverse selection since uncertainty about product quality from their first life remains in place. We study how these adverse selection costs may be identified and reduced in online B2B auctions for m...

摘要：The conversion funnel is a model describing the stages consumers go through in their journey toward a purchase. This journey often lasts several days to weeks and can include multiple visits to a seller's website. A large body of literature has focused on using observable search patterns to identify consumers' hidden purchasing stages and to estimate their likelihood of conversion. We propose a novel set of measures to better reveal the consumer's hidden stage in the funnel. These measures are...

In this paper, we focus our investigation on a nascent competitive strategy- consumer opinion manipulation-in the lodging sector of the hospitality industry. We examine two types of opinion manipulations through online reviews: promoting oneself and demoting one'...

摘要：Star and Ruhleder's (1996) influential relational view of infrastructure is usually understood as a relation between technologies and organizational practices. However, a significant part of Star and Ruhleder's original proposal has been overlooked-that infrastructure becomes a home for somebody. In this paper, we give an alternative interpretation of this relational view by focusing on the relation between a person and their infrastructure, rather than on the relation between technologies and...
