ABSTRACTDespite the growing recognition of business analytics (BA)‘s role in boosting the firm’s intellectual capital and subsequent competitiveness, some firms are still hesitant to adopt BA. To have a clear picture of what will lead to the serious consideration of BA as a business intelligence tool, we conducted confirmation factor analyses and used the structural equation model to determine what drives BA applications. Through a series of hypothesis testing, we discovered that security, ease of use, perceived risk, and IT capability became important determinants for BA applications. On the other hand, various costs associated with BA use and organizational resistance against BA use turned out to be non-deciding factors for BA applications. This paper is one of the first attempts to develop practical guidelines for the successful application of BA based on the empirical study of BA practices among US and Korean firms from a cross-cultural perspective.KEYWORDS: Business analyticsbusiness intelligencecross-cultural studystructural equation modeltechnology adoptionUS and Korean firms Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributorsHokey MinHokey Min is a James R.

摘要尽管人们越来越认识到商业分析在提高企业智力资本和竞争力方面的作用,但一些企业对采用商业分析仍然犹豫不决。为了清楚地了解哪些因素会导致人们认真考虑将BA作为商业智能工具,我们进行了确认因子分析,并使用结构方程模型来确定驱动BA应用的因素。通过一系列假设检验,我们发现安全性、易用性、可感知风险和IT能力成为BA应用程序的重要决定因素。另一方面,与BA使用相关的各种成本和组织对BA使用的抵制变成了BA应用程序的非决定性因素。本文首次尝试从跨文化视角对美韩企业的BA实践进行实证研究,为BA的成功应用制定实践指南。关键词:商业分析、商业智能、跨文化研究、结构方程模型、技术采用、美韩公司披露声明、作者未报告潜在利益冲突。hokey Min是James R.

ABSTRACT This study investigated the sources of stress, affective responses, and coping mechanisms among Canadian university students toward online learning during the COVID-19 lockdown. Based on a survey of 430 undergraduate and graduate students at a Canadian University in Ontario, Canada, it was found that a leading source of student stress is technology unreliability, followed closely by academic experience. The most frequent affective response is disaffection, particularly passive disengagement, as well as feeling distracted and unfocused. Problem-focused coping, especially seeking university help and self-organization, was the dominant approach followed by students in dealing with and trying to overcome the challenges associated with online learning. Institutional managers should dedicate resources to support online services, to offer student training in self-organization techniques, and to invest in reliable learning management systems. Instructors should clearly communicate their academic expectations and avoid ambiguity, encourage students to contact them directly, design course FAQ sections, and allocate extra time to accommodate unexpected technical glitches. Students should embrace the notion of technology unreliability, ambiguity, uncertainty, and other unexpected issues. It is their responsibility to arrange a productive learning environment at home, organize themselves, draw a line between school and home tasks, and secure formal or informal support if needed.

ABSTRACT Twitch is a global online live streaming platform which is redefining how user-generated video content is produced and consumed. Streamers in countries all over the world have flocked to Twitch to broadcast themselves playing video games or engaging in other activities. Twitch has the potential to generate significant revenues for successful streamers. However, despite worldwide explosive growth in Twitch streamers, the number of streamers who actually gather a large enough viewer base to be called popular is rather small. This study examines these successful streamers and attempts to explain global Twitch viewership based on homophily and the tendencies of viewers to gravitate to streamers who seem most like themselves. A model of Twitch viewership is developed and tested based on four aspects of homophily. Ultimately, a Poisson panel regression analysis of data gathered on 207 of the most popular Twitch streamers from 27 countries shows that streamers who actively promote homophily in its various forms through their streaming practices have accrued a greater number of viewers than those who do not. The research’s implications for streamers, the Twitch platform itself, and researchers are also discussed.
