摘要:Although online peer-production systems have proven to be effective in producing high-quality content, their open call for participation makes them susceptible to ongoing quality problems. A key concern is that the problems should be addressed quickly to prevent low-quality content from remaining in place for extended periods. We examine the impacts of two control mechanisms, bots and policy citations, and the number of contributors, with and without prior experience in editing an article, on ...

摘要:The subscription-based business model is disruptive in the copyright industries. More than a digitalized distribution channel, it fundamentally transforms both supply and demand sides by offering new forms of content creation, provision, and consumption. However, the effects of these business models on the local offline industry are less well understood, especially in the case of the motion picture industry. This study investigates the impact of the subscription-based business model on offline...

摘要:Online gig platforms have the potential to influence employment in existing industries. Popular press and academic research offer two competing predictions: First, online gig platforms may reduce the supply of incumbent workers by intensifying competition and obsoleting certain skills of workers; or, second, they may boost the supply of workers by increasing client-worker matching efficiency and creating new employment opportunities for workers. Yet, there has been limited understanding of the...

摘要:Online retailers often confront the problem of order cancellation due to customers' poor satisfaction with their online purchase decision, termed as choice satisfaction in this study. However, very little e-commerce literature has addressed customer choice satisfaction, and none, to our knowledge, has investigated how to design product display interfaces to achieve it. Drawing from choice closure theory and eye and vision research, we examine how product display orientation of an online shoppi...

摘要:Non-fungible token (NFT) marketplaces enable users to mint and trade digital assets, such as collectibles, trading cards, and digital artwork. Many of these platforms accommodate resale royalties, which return a predetermined percentage of the proceeds from future resales of the digital asset to the creator. Although the adoption of resale royalties may seem beneficial for NFT creators by providing a recurring source of income, it could have unintended consequences on the sales price and the l...

摘要:Uncertainty, particularly distribution uncertainty (a.k.a. ambiguity), holds significant relevance in both academic research and practical applications. Much of the existing research, however, has concentrated primarily on addressing outcome uncertainty (or risk), frequently neglecting the aspect of distribution uncertainty. This research delves into distribution uncertainty, a critical yet often overlooked aspect of empirical research. We argue that there is a pressing need to integrate consi...

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:The use of explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) to render black-box artificial intelligence (AI) more interpretable to humans is gaining practical relevance. Prior research has shown that XAI can influence how humans think. Yet, little is known about whether XAI also affects how people think about their thinking (i.e., their metacognitive processes). We address this gap by investigating whether XAI affects metacognitive processes that guide human confidence judgments about their ability t...

摘要:Online education is a vital consumer industry that is undergoing rapid technological change. This paper develops a deep learning model to predict instructor performance on online education platforms from a content-based perspective. Specifically, we design an interpretable hierarchical transformer with contextual attention to predict instructor rating and course rating using textual data. Our model captures the inherent hierarchical structure of online courses and the sequential dependency of ...
