摘要:Mobile apps are among the most important and widely used financial technology (fintech) innovations in the brokerage industry. Surprisingly, despite their increasing economic importance and theoretical significance, few studies examine the effects of mobile app use on individual investors' financial decisions and performance. This study seeks to understand how mobile apps influence investors' trading behaviors and portfolio performance by using a proprietary longitudinal data set from December...

摘要:Platform owners are releasing their own apps on their platforms. These first-party apps (FPAs) typically leverage platform resources more effectively, competitively threatening rivals. Although the impact of FPAs on rivals' innovation has been the subject of extensive study, the dominant view in previous research assumes that these FPAs are closed to third-party apps (TPAs). However, there is an increasing trend of FPAs opening their resources to TPAs, as they provide application programming i...

摘要:How does information on a rival's expertise influence the focal user's engagement in online competitive settings? Online competitive settings differ fundamentally from other online contexts, such as e-commerce and social media platforms, explored in the prior work. This contextual distinction, we argue, is important as it determines the relationship between information about others and the focal user's engagement. The relevance of this question relates to broader theoretical ambiguities concer...

摘要:Crowdsourcing is about leveraging information technologies to outsource tasks to a large group of people, who can either be paid workers or nonpaid workers. Differing from monetarily incentivized workers, nonpaid workers are more likely to be affected by coworking relationships. To explore the link between the network and volunteering behavior, we construct dynamic collaboration networks from 827,260 unique volunteers' participation in 183,445 projects initiated by 74,556 nonprofit organizatio...

摘要:Traditionally thought of as uncomfortable bedfellows, consumer IT and fashion are becoming increasingly intertwined, which has given rise to a unique phenomenon termed consumer IT fashion-the collective enthusiasm in society for consumer technology. Nevertheless, it remains uncertain how IT fashion is perceived by individual consumers and subsequently influences consumer behavior. Our research aims to bridge this gap. By differentiating between societal-level and individual-level perceptions o...

摘要:The increasing complexity of sociotechnical phenomena, proliferation of diverse data sources, expanding repertoire of research methods, and broadening multiparadigmatic awareness and competence have spurred a growing interest in multimethod research in the information systems (IS) field. This editorial recognizes and celebrates the value of integrating diverse methods and offers a framework to classify multimethod research using two dimensions: (a) methodological distance-the degree of differe...

摘要:Despite their prevalence, online learning platforms have difficulty sustaining user motivation, resulting in low engagement and poor performance. Addressing this challenge, we study how these platforms can boost learner motivation by fostering an effective learning environment and inducing different situational goals. We conducted a randomized field experiment with behavioral interventions inspired by the achievement goal theory in a massive open online course with more than 2,000 learners fro...

摘要:We study the geographical pattern of online word of mouth (WOM). Specifically, we examine whether and how customers' local environment influences the generation and direction of online WOM. Leveraging a unique research design, we measure the online WOM at a U.S. national e-commerce platform by tracking the WOM referral decisions of customers in over 240,000 purchases. In parallel, we measure the local environment of customers by combining a range of proprietary and public data sources (Faceboo...

摘要:Voice-activated shopping assistants (voice AI), such as Amazon Alexa and Alibaba Tmall Genie, have been gaining popularity worldwide as a new channel for online shopping. In this paper, we analyze large-scale archival data of consumer-level purchase records from Alibaba, the world's largest e-commerce platform, to empirically investigate how consumers' adoption of Tmall Genie affects their consumption. The results show that the average consumer's weekly spending the e-commerce platform increas...

摘要:Relation-empowered retail management has gained increasing attention. Although evidence on enhanced retail sales forecasting (RSF) for a focal product by leveraging information on related products has been acknowledged, prior studies suffer from high risk of either erroneously introducing irrelevant relations or missing informative ones, as well as incompetence to simultaneously tackle multifaceted and complex product relations. Beyond the well-known relations of complements and substitutes, o...
