摘要：In this study, we use newly available data and develop a novel interpretable machine learning model to evaluate how different types of marketing campaigns and budget allocations influence malls' customer traffic. The data we use is a large-scale customer traffic data set, collected through AI-chip-embedded sensors, across 25 malls over a two-year period, and we combine it with detailed campaign information for our analyses. We classify the campaigns into five categories based on the approach a...

摘要：Gamified challenges, one of the most popular features of online weight-loss communities, enable users to set weight-loss goals and compete with other challenge participants via leaderboards. In this paper, using the data from a leading online weight-loss community, we study the effect of gamified challenges on the weight-loss outcome. We employ a dynamic model, using a system generalized method of moments estimator combined with an inverse probability weighting approach, to address endogeneity...

摘要：We study how humans make decisions when they collaborate with an artificial intelligence (AI) in a setting where humans and the AI perform classification tasks. Our experimental results suggest that humans and AI who work together can outperform the AI that outperforms humans when it works on its own. However, the combined performance improves only when the AI delegates work to humans but not when humans delegate work to the AI. The AI's delegation performance improved even when it delegated t...

摘要：Idea seekers in crowdsourcing ideation contests often provide solution exemplars to guide solvers in developing ideas. Solvers can also use these exemplars to infer seekers' preferences when generating ideas. In this study, we delve into solvers' ideation process and examine how seeker exemplars affect the quantitative outcomes in solvers' scanning, shortlisting, and selection of ideas; these ideation activities relate to the search and evaluate stage of a previously published knowledge reuse ...

摘要：Healthcare entitlement programs in the United States represent a large and growing financial outlay for taxpayers. In the pursuit of operational efficiencies, program administrators often contract with private managed care organizations (MCOs) to procure insurance for beneficiaries. This, however, encourages MCOs to attract the healthiest beneficiaries and avoid the sickest, a phenomenon known as risk selection. This paper investigates whether risk selection can be mitigated with a mechanism w...

摘要：An increasing number of companies have started to implement corporate knowledge-sharing communities. Consistent with the observation in the offline setting, employees are less likely to share knowledge with individuals who have higher job ranks (i.e., higher-ups) in corporate communities such as online wikis and discussion groups. Given the importance of managers' engagements in the community and the needs for knowledge sharing across the hierarchy, we examine whether such observation persists...

摘要：Although enjoying rapid development, online lending also endures some unusual risk, that is, platform risk. As prior research on default risk evaluation in online lending largely focuses on the micro listing level, we advocate a new research problem at the macro platform level, platform risk evaluation, and explore types of information and methods that are effective in predicting platform risk. We identify four types of information, that is, platform characteristic, risk management, commercial...

摘要：Accountable care organizations (ACOs) were established under the Affordable Care Act to address systemic problems afflicting the U.S. healthcare system related to high costs and poor quality issues. ACOs represent groups of healthcare providers that are responsible for coordinating patient care with the goal of improving health outcomes for their patient population. To develop a better understanding of the role of health information technology (IT) in a value-based care environment, we study (...

摘要：We investigate how public firms configure their enterprise systems (ES) portfolio when faced with information risk, which refers to the likelihood that corporate financial information is of poor quality. We focus on firms' configuration of their ES portfolio by introducing a novel construct: ES portfolio balance, or the relative proportion of two categories of ES modules, operational and functional. We draw on the theory of information processing to hypothesize the impact of information risk o...

摘要：Firms have been sharing transactional data with business partners ever since electronic data interchange was introduced to the retail industry in the 1980s. The potential benefits of data sharing notwithstanding, there has been continued reluctance on the part of data owners to share their data, for fear of sensitive information potentially making its way to competitors. Approaches that can help hide sensitive information could alleviate such concerns and increase the number of firms that are ...
