摘要：Navigating temporal plurality-the superposition of temporal structures whose differing rhythms and phases may be desynchronized, generating temporal misfits-has long challenged software project teams, especially in agile software development (ASD), owing to its high velocity and iterativity. To shed light on this phenomenon, we conducted a longitudinal, theory-building study of five ASD projects. Anchored in the temporal structuring perspective, we mobilized the lens of entrainment to explain ...

摘要：Innovation, at its core, is a recombinant process that involves the blending of existing ideas to produce novel solutions. In this study, we examine the effect of gender diversity among patenting inventors on the recombinant intensity of firm innovation. To measure recombinant intensity, we propose an information artifact called SPaRK (Semantic Patent Recombinant Knowledge), which utilizes word embeddings from the patent text. We identify the impact of inventor gender diversity by leveraging t...

摘要：Drug discovery is a complex process that involves sequentially screening and examining a vast array of molecules to identify those with the target properties. This process faces challenges because of the vast search space, the rarity of target molecules, and constraints imposed by limited data and experimental budgets. To overcome these challenges, we propose a human-centered human-algorithm collaboration framework. Notably, both the algorithm and humans have substantial knowledge gaps as huma...

摘要：An increasing number of companies are launching corporate online communities to facilitate knowledge sharing. A corporate online community is different from traditional communication channels, as its social-media atmosphere physically eliminates organizational boundaries. However, studies have shown that organizational boundaries still hinder knowledge exchange in corporate online communities. In this study, we propose that both knowledge-focused and social-related motivations exist, underlyin...

摘要：Despite investor interest and continued encouragement of transparency by regulators, firms generally adopt a private stance and refrain from disclosing investments in cybersecurity countermeasures. Existing literature suggests that firms may lack sufficient incentives to offset the potential risks of such disclosures. Thus, in the absence of clear evidence capturing robust benefits, firms may remain disincentivized to disclose their cybersecurity investments. Using exogenous shocks triggered b...

摘要：Fitting rooms in brick-and-mortar stores play a critical role in shaping the consumer experience. Unlike online retailing, the long service times in fitting rooms often lead to congestion in a physical store, which lowers the service satisfaction of consumers. To address this challenge, a growing number of fashion brands are adopting augmented reality (AR) fitting technologies, enabling consumers to virtually try on garments and thus bypass traditional waiting periods. Despite these advancemen...

摘要：Access-based and algorithm-empowered IT services (e.g., Spotify and Duolingo) have become ubiquitous, introducing a new form of user-artifact (U-A) interactions that extend beyond traditional user-user (U-U) interactions. However, the on-demand nature of these services, which fosters low perceptions of ownership, makes it challenging to retain users and encourage their voluntary contributions. Drawing on the literature on psychological ownership and extra-role behavior, this study sheds light ...

摘要：The growing dependency on information technology (IT) exposes organizations to significant risks when IT resources become unavailable, resulting in potential disruptions to business operations. The key puzzle addressed in this work is how certain information technology unavailability (ITU) incidents have delayed recovery and led to substantial strategic consequences. We examine the dynamics of ITU incidents and their strategic implications to explain how certain incidents persist and escalate,...

摘要：The existing literature has long assumed that unethical behaviors are fueled by competition. Under this premise, rivalry and competition are often treated interchangeably. This study seeks to challenge this prevailing notion by introducing a conceptual distinction between rivalry and competition. Specifically, we explore the multifaceted relationship between rivalry and unethical behaviors in the context of online review self-injecting behaviors. Drawing on the collective regulatory focus fram...

摘要：Firms have increasingly turned to social media marketing (SMM) as a means of enhancing their competitive edge and overall performance, yet they vary widely in their SMM spending. Building on an established game-theoretic framework of quality signaling, we consider the dual roles of SMM in (i) increasing product awareness and (ii) informing consumers about product quality (i.e., SMM's information revelation role) in order to analyze a monopolist firm's pricing decisions and strategic SMM spendi...
