摘要：Today's healthcare workers, specifically nurses, are experiencing technostress associated with the use of healthcare information technology (HIT). Technostress is often characterized by IS researchers as negative, or as being on the dark side of technology. However, a broader reading of the stress literature suggests that technostress may be both positive and negative, and can therefore have a bright side in addition to a dark side. The objective of this study is to conceptualize a holistic te...

摘要：The pervasiveness of the Internet and digitization has revolutionized the delivery and consumption of information goods. In this paper, we study the impact of digitization and the shift in consumers' preferences for the digital medium on outcomes including social welfare in content markets. We consider a publisher who offers information goods in the physical and the digital media and also in a bundle of physical and digital media in a market where consumers are heterogeneous in both their valu...

摘要：The generation of platform content is essential for platform growth and competition. However, the overwhelming number of platform complementors makes it impossible for platform operators to engage in extensive communication with each complementor about which content contributions are desired. Therefore, platform operators need to find a way to signal strategic interests to platform complementors. In this paper, we employ a mixed-methods design using data from the geodata platform OpenStreetMap...

摘要：People frame their communications to suit their personal agendas, even when they are collaborating. However, most information systems (IS) literature assumes people working together have completely aligned agendas. The assumption of agenda alignment in prior research motivates our examination of how agendas and media capabilities influence communication performance. By relaxing the assumption of complete agenda alignment, we reconceptualize how media capabilities interact with communication pr...

摘要：In this work we explore the question of whether there is a genetic basis for people's different propensities to search for information. Specifically, we test whether the rs1044396 polymorphism-one variation in the cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha 4 (CHRNA4) gene-is a reliable predictor of propensity to search for information. A sample of 205 subjects performed an information search task and then donated genetic material, which was analyzed. Using these data we found that the rs1044396 poly...

摘要：The problem of recurrent, unplanned readmissions, where some patients return shortly after discharge from the hospital and are readmitted for the same or a related condition, has become a challenge worldwide due to care quality, health outcomes, and financial concerns. Predicting frequent, preventable readmissions and understanding the contributing factors is a critical problem that is being widely studied. However, few studies have examined longitudinal risk stratification, profiling, and pre...

摘要：Despite the positive aspects of information technology (IT) use, it is common for users to experience negative IT incidents. Examples of negative IT incidents include getting lost in an unfamiliar country due to a dysfunctional map application and missing a monetary insurance benefit due to the failure of an activity tracker application. Such incidents can harm IT providers by giving rise to user dissatisfaction, discontinued use, switching, and negative word-of-mouth. To minimize this harm, i...

摘要：In today's highly competitive business environment, a growing number of high-tech firms are opening their technologies. We explore the rationale behind this unusual sharing behavior in order to understand whether it is altruism or a shrewd business move. We construct an analytical model where competing firms can choose technology openness, prototype release, or technology closedness as the technology openness strategy and make subsequent innovations on the adopted technology. In contrast to li...

摘要：In this study, we quantify the value of physical showrooms to online competitors by investigating how the presence and absence of local showrooms impact customers' search and purchase behaviors with online competitors. By using an exogenous event of a large retailer's offline market exit and a unique dataset that captures customers' online browsing and purchasing activities before and after the event, we empirically examine the changes in online search and sales made by customers who lived wit...

摘要：This paper draws on complex adaptive systems (CAS) theory to explore the transformation of an analog automation product platform as it was infused with extensive and deepening digital capacities over a 40-year period. Our case demonstrates how the deepening digitization of components and functions drives complexity by connecting the platform to multiple social and technical settings and producing new interactions and information exchanges. The increased connectivity and dynamism invited unexpe...
