摘要:We have recently witnessed two important trends in online retailing: The advent of new media (e.g., social media and search engines) has made advertising affordable for small sellers, and large online retailers (e.g., Amazon and JD.com) have opened their platforms to allow even direct competitors to sell on their platforms. We examine how new-media advertising affects retail platform openness. We develop a game-theoretic model in which a leading retailer, who has both valuation and awareness a...

摘要:Despite increased empirical attention, theory on bots and how they act to disseminate information on socialmediaremains poorly understood. Our study leverages the conduit brokerage perspective andthe findingsof amultiple case study todevelop anovel framework of algorithmic conduit brokeragefor understandinginformation dissemination by bots andthe designchoices that may influence their actions. Algorithmic conduitbrokerage encompasses twointertwinedprocesses. The first process, algorithmic soci...

摘要:Privacy needs on today's internet differ from the information privacy needs in traditional e-commerce settings due to their focus on interactions among online peers rather than merelytransactions with an online vendor. Peer-oriented online interactions have critical implications for an individual's virtual presence and self-cognition. Yet existing conceptualizations of internet privacy concerns have solely focusedon the control of personal information release and on online interactions with on...

摘要:Innovation breakthroughs prompt sensemaking discourses that promote community learning and socially construct the innovation. Through this discourse, interested actors advance diverse frames, appealing to consumers with disparate preferences but raising concerns for the coherence of that discourse. We unpack this diversity-coherence paradox by recasting coherence as the relatedness of innovation frames and spotlighting the role of discursive fields that circumscribe meaning. Our empirical cont...

摘要:We examine counterfactual explanations for explaining the decisions made by model-based AI systems. The counterfactual approach we consider defines an explanation as a set of the system's data inputs that causally drives the decision (i.e., changing the inputs in the set changes the decision) and is irreducible (i.e., changing any subset of the inputs does not change the decision). We (1) demonstrate how this framework may be used to provide explanations for decisions made by general data-driv...

摘要:Social network data collected from digital sources is increasingly being used to gain insights into human behavior. However, while these observable networks constitute an empirical ground truth, the individuals within the network can perceive the network's structure differently and they often act on these perceptions. As such, we argue that there is a distinct gap between the data used to model behaviors in a network, and the data internalized by people when they actually engage in behaviors. ...

摘要:The prevalence and rapid growth of cybercrime are largely attributed to hacker communities on the dark web, where cybercriminals extensively exchange hacking resources, share hacking knowledge, and organize cyberattacks. Such streams of hacker-generated content constitute an invaluable data source for developing threat intelligence that can inform organizations of cybersecurity risks and facilitate proactive cyber defense. Drawing upon the design science paradigm, we propose a novel nonparamet...

摘要:The globalization of work raises important questions related to the employment of workers across geographies and how the complementarity or substitution of workers across country borders influences firm profitability. In particular, tension often exists regarding the substitution or complementarity of workers located outside the U.S. or within the U.S. for American firms. We investigate this question in the context of information technology (IT) professionals and assess how domestic and foreig...

摘要:Advancing the quality of healthcare for senior citizens with chronic conditions is of great social relevance. To better manage chronic conditions, objective, convenient, and inexpensive wearable sensor -based information systems (IS) have been increasingly used by researchers and practitioners. However, existing models often focus on a single aspect of chronic conditions and are often black boxes with limited interpretability. In this research, we adopt the computational design science paradig...
