摘要：Passionate exercisers are those who have integrated their cherished activity into their identity, meaning that their activity defines them (e.g., they consider themselves to be a runner or adventure racer). There are two types of passion, namely harmonious and obsessive, and research shows that those holding an obsessive passion are prone to negative outcomes. Specifically, the obsessively passionate are susceptible to comparative performance indicators and may rely more heavily on their cheri...

摘要：Ransomware, a digital form of extortion, has emerged as one of the biggest threats to cybersecurity. Faced with business disruptions, many organizations accede to ransom demands, and in doing so, they incentivize attackers to launch more attacks, elevating the chance of a future breach, not just for themselves but for others as well. We study this externality using a multiperiod game among multiple firms, each of which has a choice to pay or not pay if breached in a particular period, its choi...

摘要：Departing from traditional theory on digitalization, we argue that smaller enterprises in resource-constrained environments may take a different route to digitalization that is less strategic and more emergent, less engineered and more oriented to the situation at hand, and less driven by sophisticated technology and more likely to embody frugality. We ask, How do microenterprises 'make do' their digitalization in resource-constrained environments?, addressing the question through a large-scal...

摘要：We present a novel information systems (IS)-enabled pricing artifact for variablerate electric vehicle (EV) charging that can facilitate a sustainable EV introduction. EVs can significantly reduce carbon intensity in modern cities and address important sustainability challenges. However, large-scale EV introduction is expected to increase electricity demand peaks, threatening grid stability and reliability. Most proposed methods to coordinate EV charging have shortcomings, such as the inabilit...

摘要：Over recent years, companies have been increasingly adopting algorithmic decision systems (ADS) to replace humans. In this paper, we focus on how ADS facilitates human managers' decision making rather than replacing humans altogether in the context of inventory ordering decisions, specifically on the effect of providing ADS performance information to human managers. Using a pair of field experiments, our results suggest that providing ADS performance information can improve their inventory ord...

摘要：The unique dynamics of the crowdfunding process have attracted substantial scholarly attention over the past decade. In this study, we investigate how crowdfunding campaign starters' response to potential backers in the discussion board influences backer accumulation in reward-based crowdfunding platforms. We suggest that the starter response serves to reduce information asymmetry and signal the positive qualities of the campaign starter(s). Accordingly, we shed light on the threefold implicat...

摘要：Competition between user-generated content platforms (e.g., Twitch, Spotify, YouTube) is characterized by fierce talent poaching of highly popular stars on the supply side. However, little is known about how the loss of a star affects content production from former cocreating peers on multisided content platforms. Whereas theory suggests that star turnovers might decrease the demand for cocreating peers or trigger them to depart the platform as well, empirical understanding is still lacking. T...

摘要：Online sales of limited inventory such as flash sales and lightning deals have become popular among e-commerce retailers including Amazon and eBay. Motivated by empirical studies on how inventory information affects demand in flash sales, we study the retailer's best timing of disclosing inventory information to maximize the expected sales in a finite horizon. We build a model of customers' utility within a Bayesian updating framework to capture the observational learning and scarcity effects ...

摘要：Digital technologies hold immense potential for enhancing collaboration and teamwork. Collective-level efficacy, or the collective belief in the ability to collaborate effectively, is a crucial factor influencing traditional team performance that is now being explored in the context of digitally enabled virtual teams. However, despite the idiosyncratic challenges of virtual teams, researchers studying collective-level efficacy's effects tend to directly apply traditional team concepts, which d...

摘要：Silence as a system behavior has evaded attention in information systems (IS) discourse, where interaction predominates. It merits examination as systems grow brittle, brute-force countermeasures falter, and autonomous systems risk misbehaving. We conceptualize silence as dynamic system-wide behavior, theorizing how it drives IS generativity by coalescing developers' attention on temporally shifting slivers of a system's codebase. Using a supercomputer-scale model, we analyzed nearly 20 millio...
