摘要:The remarkable success in personalized recommendations on digital platforms has sparked interest in extending this advancement to physical spaces. In response, our study introduces a generalized recommendation problem, named point-of-interest (POI) recommendations in physical spaces with pedestrian movement (P3M). A critical yet under-investigated impediment in addressing P3M is exposure bias: When the exposure likelihood of items to users is unevenly distributed, indiscriminately treating all...

摘要:Survey-based research in information systems requires valid scales to advance theory, and the discipline has developed rigorous procedures to assess scale validity. In principle, these procedures ensure that scales consist of clear indicators and faithfully represent the focal construct. However, the focus on the psychometric properties of scales has overshadowed the role of lexical and semantic elements in the validation process, leading to invalid scales. This overemphasis on psychometric pr...

摘要:In the highly competitive mobile market, third-party vendors located outside the purview of hosting mobile platforms are becoming major suppliers of functional tool kits for mobile app development and innovation. Mobile app developers, however, face the uncertainty of whether and how to use third-party software development kits (SDKs) from these external vendors to create more appealing and engaging mobile apps. This study examines the extent to and conditions under which third-party SDK utili...

摘要:Online discussion platforms distribute content primarily through social and nonsocial newsfeed channels. Prior research has examined user engagement within individual channels, but less is known about their interactions. This study investigates the impact of reducing the visibility of a social channel (friends' liked content) on the quantity and diversity of user engagement with other newsfeed channels. Drawing on the channel substitution and complementarity framework, we develop our hypothese...

摘要:Contemporary firms face an environment marked by major shocks, which are characterized by economic stagnation, mounting debt burdens, rapid technological disruption, profound geopolitical volatility, and escalating environmental crises. Under these circumstances, organizational resilience to major shocks (ORMS) is critical for firms to mitigate disruptions and thrive in turbulent environments. Although information technology (IT) resources are increasingly recognized as vital for building resi...

摘要:Data donations promise to unlock the social benefits of personal data. Recently, contact-tracing apps were developed to collect contact and health data from individuals to fight the COVID-19 pandemic. Compared with commercial apps, the adoption of contacttracing apps involves a unique cost-benefit calculus. The prosocial motives to engage in data donations, a mix of short-and long-term costs, and the need for continuous, yet mostly passive, app usage render digital contact tracing a novel info...

摘要:Short video platforms have become increasingly prominent in today's fast-paced world, enabling seamless content creation and consumption by connecting creators with viewers. To increase viewership and subscriber growth, many creators are motivated to promote their videos, leading platforms to introduce advertising options. Although auction-based pricing is commonly used for such promotions, fixed-price models also exist depending on the platform and promotion type. In this study, we analyze th...

摘要:Individuals react negatively to data breaches, for example, by perceiving anxiety and losing trust. Such responses are exhibited by both the actual data breach victims, whose privacy has been violated, and by individuals who may only have been potentially affected. Understanding how reactions differ across these groups can help data breach crisis management, communication, and compensation, but prior research has not examined the similarities or differences between them. Here, we exploit the p...

摘要:Paid Q&A platforms monetize knowledge by charging a commission on the consulting fees set by experts who provide personalized answers to users' questions. Additionally, some platforms capitalize on knowledge further by offering an answer-viewing feature, which allows users to pay for access to answers to questions previously posed by others. This feature provides a more affordable alternative for users seeking information, potentially expanding the platform's market by attracting those unwilli...

摘要:This study investigates how platform risk indicators and the size of the active user base shape participation in lending-based crowdfunding (LCF) markets. A key distinction between LCF platforms and other two-sided markets is heightened uncertainty, which primarily stems from concerns about platform-level financial instability. To understand how participants from both sides of the platforms navigate such uncertainty, we develop a framework grounded in observational learning and cue diagnostici...
