摘要:Identity fraud-the deliberate use of synthetic or stolen identity details for gain-affects an increasing variety of digital platforms. With traditional methods of identity verification compromised because of high-profile data breaches, platforms are turning to sparse alternative data sources and overt verification technologies, often to the detriment of the user experience. Drawing from established deception and motor learning theories, we follow the design science method to design, build, and...

摘要:Software platforms are extensible systems built on a core-periphery model, where the platform owner provides a foundational code base that third-party developers can leverage for complementary apps. This model incentivizes software platform owners to enlarge the overall value generated by the ecosystem, thereby increasing their share of the revenues, rather than competing directly with third-party developers by offering apps themselves. As part of this strategy, platform owners nevertheless in...

摘要:Leveraging advancements in large language models, social media platforms are increasingly deploying sophisticated chatbots, termed social bots, with the potential to stimulate user interaction. However, concerns linger regarding the socializing value of these bots in public settings. We investigate this phenomenon using data from the launch of CommentRobot on a microblogging platform. Analyzing user interactions with this platform-owned bot, we find that posts receiving bot-generated comments ...

摘要:Post-earnings-announcement drift (PEAD) refers to the phenomenon in which a company's stock price tends to drift persistently in response to the information released during the earnings announcement event. Predicting PEAD is of great interest to both investors and researchers because the magnitude of PEAD is economically significant. Whereas decades of studies have explored various approaches to forecasting PEAD, prior research has largely overlooked postevent investor responses-a critical int...

摘要:Digital content platforms rely on third-party providers to attract consumers. These platforms monetize content through advertising and share ad revenues with providers to incentivize content contribution. As providers increasingly multihome across platforms, competition intensifies; some platforms respond with exclusive contracts to restrict content providers' multihoming behavior. This paper develops an analytical model of two ad-supported content platforms and shows that exclusivity operates...

摘要:This study develops a conceptual framework distinguishing two foundational mechanisms of workflow automation, mechanization and orchestration, and empirically examines how workflow automation accelerates innovation in the context of open-source software (OSS) development. Drawing on the process automation, innovation, and OSS development literature, we propose that (a) workflow automation accelerates OSS innovation and (b) distinct workflow automation mechanisms-mechanization and orchestration...

摘要:Companies are beginning to deploy highly realistic-looking digital human agents (DHAs) controlled by increasingly realistic artificial intelligence (AI) for online customer service tasks often performed by chatbots. We conducted four major experiments to examine users' perceptions (trustworthiness, affinity, and willingness to work with) and behaviors while using DHA via a mixed-method approach with data from quantitative surveys, qualitative interviews, direct observations, and neurophysiolog...

摘要:To mitigate the threats from malicious exploitation of vulnerabilities, an increasing number of organizations across different industries have started incorporating bug bounty programs (BBPs) in their vulnerability management cycles. Whereas a BBP attracts external security researchers to facilitate the discovery of vulnerabilities in organizations' information technology systems, it also increases the risks after the vulnerabilities are discovered. To deal with the trade-offs, organizations n...

摘要:In today's complex and dynamic market environment, simultaneously deploying and optimizing multiple advertising channels is crucial for firms' success. In the present study, we apply optimal control theory to address the multichannel advertising optimization problem for a monopolistic firm that manages a digital ad channel and a traditional ad channel. By considering the competitive relationship between advertising efforts in different channels in satisfying consumers' informational needs, thi...

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...
