摘要:Understanding metaverse gaming experience value (MGEV) is crucial for the success of metaverse games. However, prior research lacks context-specific theoretical knowledge of MGEV dimensions, roles, and practical guidance for enhancing player experience value. To address this gap, we conducted an abductive, multi-study investigation to develop a multi-dimensional typology of MGEV, demonstrate its nomological validity, and propose a player-centered approach for its investigation. First, we perfo...

摘要:Digital platforms are increasingly integrating Generative AI (GenAI) tools as a boundary resource to enhance the quantity and quality of content with the ultimate goal of improving platform viability. As GenAI tools hold unique characteristics compared to traditional boundary resources, platform owners need to adapt their governance mechanisms accordingly. To understand how platform governance evolves over time in response to this novel boundary resource, we draw on the distributed tuning fram...

摘要:This paper examines employees' job crafting in the context of enterprise system (ES) implementations. Job crafting refers to employees' self-initiated changes aimed at improving their jobs. Drawing on self-construal and trait activation theories, we posit that personality traits associated with an independent self-construal (conscientiousness [CONSC] and openness [OPEN]) and an interdependent self-construal (agreeableness [AGREE] and extraversion [EXTRA]) promote and inhibit job crafting, resp...

摘要:While digital platform vendors are rapidly offering new generative artificial intelligence products (GAIPs), prior research on algorithmic aversion suggests that users may not respond to them the same way as to the human-generated products (HGPs). We propose that GAIPs induce psychological value, defined as a user's intrinsic desire for a product that can influence their willingness to pay and may depend on the product type. Disclosing a product as a GAIP or HGP could further influence user re...

摘要:Material to inform the decisions on the job promotion of open source software (OSS) developers is available on platforms. Digital features increase the visibility of OSS developer technical and interpersonal skills. Digital features also make it possible for OSS developers to visibly receive endorsements and recommendations from others about those skills. It is unclear how well the visibility of technical versus interpersonal skills through such digital features facilitates OSS developer job p...

摘要:This research theorizes and documents for the first time a cyber risk that may arise from strategic alliances with Big Tech, a grouping of the most dominant companies in the information technology industry. This research proposes that alliances with Big Tech tend to involve leveraging and integrating Big Tech's innovative technological capabilities into a focal firm's data management, operations, products, or services. This process can be understood as an inter-organizational system of systems...

摘要:This paper explores a paradigm shift from viewing the Metaverse as a distinct digital world to viewing the Metaverse as an integral part of everyday life, termed the Everyday Metaverse. Previous research on the traditional paradigm falls short of capturing the essence of the emerging paradigm, limiting both scholarly understanding and practical engagement. Through an interpretive case study method, this research investigates the design process of a hybrid city project that strived to integrate...

摘要:The innovative potential of the Metaverse for knowledge work has mostly been explored in terms of its ability to enhance remote collaboration. However, this paper takes a distraction management perspective and presents findings from a qualitative study where knowledge workers performed solo tasks using an immersive Metaverse application. We posit that knowledge workers can proactively shield themselves from common distractions in collaborative, private, or public spaces by clearly separating t...

摘要:Generative AI (GenAI) may fundamentally reshape how users seek knowledge in online knowledge sharing communities. Although prior work found an overall decrease in knowledge seeking in online communities upon the availability of GenAI, the underlying dynamics across user groups have remained unexplored. This study addresses that gap. Drawing on commitment-based theory, we hypothesize that casual users-motivated by cost-benefit considerations-are more likely to reduce their question-posting acti...

摘要:We study how app competitiveness evolves through intertemporal shifts between proprietary code and platform-sourced functionality. We introduce the novel mechanism of boundary morphing-apps expanding their boundaries by adding proprietary code or contracting them by increasing platform-sourced functionality-by integrating transaction cost economics (TCE) with platforms theory. Using seven years of data from over 600 AndroidOS apps, we show that platform specificity and market uncertainty drive...
