Current online review systems widely suffer from rating biases. Biased ratings can lead to violations of customer trust and failures of business intelligence. Hence, both practitioners and researchers have directed massive efforts toward curbing rating biases. In this paper, we investigate bandwagon bias, the rating distortion resulting from individuals posting ratings shifted toward the displayed average rating, and propose a bias warning approach to mitigate this bias. Drawing on the flexible correction model, the theory of valuation in behavioral economics, and previous warning research, we design an effective warning strategy in two steps. First, we start with the risk-alert warning strategy, which prior research has widely employed, and rationalize its deficiencies by synthesizing theoretical analysis and extant empirical evidence. Second, considering the deficiencies, we identify a supplementary content design factor—the ranking task—and construct a risk-alert-with-ranking-task warning strategy. We then empirically test the effects of the two warning strategies on individual ratings in cases in which bandwagon bias either occurs or does not occur in individuals’ initial assessments. The results of four controlled experiments indicate that (1) the risk-alert strategy can reduce bandwagon bias in individual ratings but will elicit unwanted rating distortions when bandwagon bias does not occur in individuals’ initial assessments, and (2) the risk-alert-with-ranking-task strategy can mitigate bandwagon bias while avoiding the unwanted rating distortions above and can thus function as an effective warning strategy. Our research contributes to the literature by proposing an effective debiasing solution for bandwagon bias and a bias warning approach for online rating debiasing, which can help increase rating informativeness on online platforms.
目前的在线评论系统普遍存在评级偏见。有偏见的评级可能导致违反客户信任和商业智能的失败。因此,从业人员和研究人员都在努力遏制评级偏见。在本文中,我们研究了从众偏见,即由于个人发布的评分向显示的平均评分转移而导致的扭曲,并提出了一种偏见警告方法来减轻这种偏见。借鉴柔性修正模型、行为经济学中的估值理论和前人的预警研究成果,分两步设计了有效的预警策略。首先,从前人研究广泛采用的风险预警策略入手,综合理论分析和实证证据,对其不足之处进行合理化分析。其次,考虑到这些不足,我们确定了一个补充的内容设计因子-排序任务,并构建了一个风险警报与排序任务的预警策略。然后,我们从经验上测试了两种警告策略对个人评分的影响,在这种情况下,从众偏见在个人的初始评估中要么发生,要么不发生。四个对照实验的结果表明:(1)风险预警策略可以减少个人评分中的从众偏见,但在个人初始评估中没有出现从众偏见时,会引起不必要的评分扭曲;(2)风险预警与排名任务策略可以减轻从众偏见,同时避免上述不必要的评分扭曲,因此可以作为一种有效的预警策略。我们的研究通过提出一种有效的消除bandwagonbias的解决方案和一种偏见警告方法来消除在线评级的偏见,这有助于增加在线平台上的评级信息。

Digital transformation has become a dominant phenomenon of interest among information systems scholars. To account for this phenomenon, it is imperative to develop a theoretical understanding of its processes and objects. We adapt a seminal organizational theory that conceptualizes organizations as interpretation systems to a possible future of organizations. We theorize digital transformation as a progressive replacement of humans by digital technologies in performing an organization’s fundamental activities underpinning the processes of scanning, interpretation, and learning that encompass an organization’s interaction with its environment. As a result, organizations cease to be human interpretation systems and instead turn into digital enactment systems, where digital technologies, instead of humans, nearly autonomously create and act upon information. We illustrate this digital transformation theory using the example of high-frequency trading. This transformation redefines the relationship among organizations, information, and the environment, changing the role of humans and reshaping strategic decision-making. Thus conceived, digital transformation offers a concrete way of theorizing and accounts for deep implications on the nature of organizations and organizing in the digital age.
数字化转型已成为信息系统学者感兴趣的主要现象。为了解释这一现象,必须从理论上理解其过程和对象。我们采用了一种开创性的组织理论,将组织概念化为解释系统,以适应组织的可能未来。我们将数字化转型理论化为数字技术在执行组织的基本活动中逐步取代人类,这些活动支撑着组织与环境互动的扫描、解释和学习过程。因此,组织不再是人类的解释系统,而是变成了数字制定系统,在这个系统中,数字技术取代了人类,几乎自主地创造和行动信息。我们用高频交易的例子来说明这个数字化转型理论。这种转变重新定义了组织、信息和环境之间的关系,改变了人的角色,重塑了战略决策。因此,数字化转型提供了一种具体的理论化方式,并解释了数字时代组织和组织性质的深刻影响。

With societal challenges, including but not limited to human development, equity, social justice, and climate change, societal-level digital transformation (SDT) is of imminent relevance and theoretical interest. While building on local-level efforts, societal-level transformation is a nonlinear extension of the local level. Unfortunately, academic discourse on digital transformation has largely left SDT unaccounted for. Drawing on more than 25 years of intensive, interventionist research engagement with the digital transformation of public healthcare information management and delivery in more than 80 countries in the Global South, we contribute to theorizing SDT in the form of a design theory consisting of six interconnected design principles. These design principles articulate the interplay and tensions of accommodating over time increased diversity and flexibility in digital solutions, while simultaneously connecting local, national, and regional/ global efforts.
面对包括但不限于人类发展、公平、社会正义和气候变化在内的社会挑战,社会层面的数字化转型(SDT)具有迫在眉睫的相关性和理论意义。在地方层面努力的基础上,社会层面的转型是地方层面的非线性延伸。不幸的是,关于数字化转型的学术论述在很大程度上忽略了SDT。在全球南方80多个国家,我们对公共医疗保健信息管理和交付的数字化转型进行了超过25年的深入研究,我们以设计理论的形式将SDT理论化,该设计理论由六个相互关联的设计原则组成。这些设计原则阐明了随着时间的推移,数字解决方案中增加的多样性和灵活性的相互作用和紧张关系,同时将地方、国家和区域/全球的努力联系起来。

Positively Fearful: Activating the Individual's HERO Within to Explain Volitional Security Technology Adoption 积极恐惧:激活个人内心的英雄来解释意志安全技术的采用

Regardless of what security professionals do to motivate personal users to adopt security technologies volitionally, the end result seems to be the same—low adoption rates. To increase these rates, we propose activating their positive psychological capital (PsyCap), which consists of hope, self-efficacy, resilience, and optimism (i.e., their “HERO within”). We propose that greater PsyCap toward a security technology is associated with greater adoption rates (and intentions thereof) because positivity increases motivation. We further posit that PsyCap both moderates and is moderated by other constructs. We suggest that personal users’ conditioned fear from the security threat moderates the effect of PsyCap on adoption intentions because some fear is necessary to activate their positive PsyCap to form their behavioral intentions to adopt security technologies. We further hypothesize that PsyCap moderates the effect of adoption intentions on actual adoption rates because activating an individual’s HERO within encourages individuals to exert the effort necessary to translate their intentions into actual adoption. Finally, we theorize that enhancing fear appeal messages with appeals to an individual’s HERO has a greater effect on volitional adoption rates relative to messages without these PsyCap-related appeals. To support our hypotheses, we conducted two experiments using the volitional adoption of a password manager application and a two-factor authentication (2FA) service. We found differential support for our hypotheses across the two security technologies, which suggests technology characteristics might mitigate the impact of PsyCap on volitional adoption decisions.
无论安全专家如何激励个人用户自愿采用安全技术,最终的结果似乎都是一样的——采用率很低。为了提高这些比率,我们建议激活他们的积极心理资本(PsyCap),包括希望、自我效能、弹性和乐观(即他们的“内心英雄”)。我们建议对安全技术进行更大的心理测试与更高的采用率(及其意图)相关联,因为积极性会增加动机。我们进一步假设PsyCap既被其他构念调节也被其他构念调节。我们认为,个人用户对安全威胁的条理性恐惧调节了心理帽对采用意图的影响,因为某些恐惧是激活他们的积极心理帽以形成他们采用安全技术的行为意图所必需的。我们进一步假设,心理cap调节了收养意图对实际收养率的影响,因为激活个人内心的英雄会鼓励个人付出必要的努力,将他们的意图转化为实际收养。最后,我们的理论是,与没有这些心理cap相关吸引力的信息相比,通过吸引个人英雄来增强恐惧吸引力的信息对自愿采用率有更大的影响。为了支持我们的假设,我们使用自愿采用密码管理器应用程序和双因素身份验证(2FA)服务进行了两个实验。我们发现两种安全技术对我们的假设有不同的支持,这表明技术特征可能会减轻psycap对自愿采用决策的影响。

Living in a Fishbowl or Not: The Role of Transparency and Privacy in Creative Dialogues on Enterprise Social Media 是否生活在鱼缸里:透明度和隐私在企业社交媒体创造性对话中的作用

Transparency—the observability of activities, behaviors, and performance—is often treated as a panacea for modern management. Yet there is a conundrum in the literature, with some studies suggesting that transparency may benefit group creativity and others suggesting that privacy may do so. A similar conundrum exists regarding the effects of different social capital types—structural holes vs. network cohesion—on group creativity. Enterprise social media (ESM) provide a unique opportunity to solve these conundrums by allowing groups to be “transparent” (non-group members can observe and/or participate in group activities) or “private” (group members and activities are hidden from the community) and enabling groups to develop distinct social capital structures. Using data from 28,083 written interactions produced by 109 transparent and 106 private groups in an ESM of a multinational design firm, we found strong support for our contingency hypotheses that both transparent and private groups may produce high levels of creative dialogues, yet in different forms. Specifically, expansion-focused creative dialogues— those focused on combining or expanding existing concepts—emerge in transparent groups, but only when the group’s social capital is characterized by structural holes. Conversely, we found that reframingfocused dialogues—those focused on challenging and rethinking—emerge in private groups but only when the group’s social capital is characterized by network cohesion. Theoretically, these findings can help to solve the conundrums in the literature on group creativity and shed light on the role of ESM use in this context. Practically, our findings offer a critical reflection o contemporary initiatives for increasing transparency, whether through physical design or digital transformation.
透明度——活动、行为和绩效的可观察性——通常被视为现代管理的灵丹妙药。然而,在文献中有一个难题,一些研究表明,透明度可能有利于群体创造力,而另一些研究表明,隐私可能会这样做。关于不同社会资本类型(结构漏洞vs.网络凝聚力)对群体创造力的影响,也存在类似的难题。企业社交媒体(ESM)提供了一个独特的机会来解决这些问题,它允许群体“透明”(非群体成员可以观察和/或参与群体活动)或“私人”(群体成员和活动对社区隐藏),并使群体能够发展独特的社会资本结构。利用一家跨国设计公司的ESM中109个透明团体和106个私人团体产生的28,083份书面互动的数据,我们发现有力地支持了我们的偶然性假设,即透明团体和私人团体都可能产生高水平的创造性对话,但形式不同。具体来说,专注于扩展的创造性对话——那些专注于结合或扩展现有概念的对话——出现在透明的群体中,但只有当群体的社会资本以结构漏洞为特征时才会出现。相反,我们发现,专注于挑战和重新思考的重构对话出现在私人群体中,但只有当群体的社会资本以网络凝聚力为特征时才会出现。从理论上讲,这些发现有助于解决文献中关于群体创造力的难题,并阐明在这种情况下使用ESM的作用。实际上,我们的研究结果为当代提高透明度的举措提供了批判性的反思,无论是通过物理设计还是数字化转型。

Literature has shown that business-information technology (IT) alignment can exert both positive and negative influences on organizational agility, giving rise to the IT alignment-agility paradox. To better understand this paradox at a more granular level, we conceptualize the sensing and responding dimensions of organizational agility as two independent constructs and suggest a nonlinear analytical approach. Based on configurational and contextual perspectives, this study investigates how intellectual and social alignment and organizational and environmental elements combine into multiple configurations to affect sensing and responding capabilities. Fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) is used to analyze the survey data from 135 dyads of business and IT executives from the Chinese shipbuilding industry. Results show that different equifinal pathways can be used to achieve high sensing and responding capabilities, in which intellectual and social alignment play heterogeneous roles depending on the specific contexts. This study extends the ITenabled agility literature by deepening our understanding of the effects of multidimensional IT alignment on multidimensional organizational agility and providing new insights into the IT alignment-agility paradox.
已有文献表明,业务-信息技术(IT)对齐可以对组织敏捷性产生积极和消极的影响,从而产生IT对齐-敏捷性悖论。为了在更细粒度的层面上更好地理解这个悖论,我们将组织敏捷性的感知和响应维度概念化为两个独立的结构,并提出了一种非线性分析方法。基于配置和上下文视角,本研究探讨了智力和社会一致性以及组织和环境因素如何组合成多种配置来影响感知和响应能力。本文采用模糊集定性比较分析(fsQCA)对中国船舶工业135对业务和IT高管的调查数据进行了分析。研究结果表明,不同的等效路径可以实现高感知和响应能力,其中智力和社会结盟在特定情境下发挥异质性作用。本研究通过深化我们对多维IT对齐对多维组织敏捷性的影响的理解,扩展了IT支持的敏捷性文献,并提供了对IT对齐-敏捷性悖论的新见解。

Individuals who have experienced harm (also known as victims) by people, organizations, or adverse events sometimes use social media to share their experiences with others, search for information, and find social support. While some observers offer support and engage in inclusion toward victims on social media, other observers blame victims for their plight and participate in revictimization and exclusion. Victim blaming, which can lead to social exclusion, disproportionately impacts those in society who are already at risk for exclusion and may perpetuate existing racial, ethnic, gender, and economic inequalities. This research provides a theoretical framework to identify reasons why observers engage in such wide-ranging responses to victims on social media. Specifically, we consider social inclusion and exclusion at the confluence of a social phenomenon (victim blaming), a theory (just world theory), and an information technology artifact (social media) among a specific type of actor (observers). Our theoretical framework of social media inclusion and exclusion is informed by just world theory and considers how social media functionalities can promote social media inclusion or exclusion. We also offer research questions to stimulate future research related to social media inclusion, social media exclusion, and just world theory.
经历过他人、组织或不良事件伤害(也称为受害者)的个人有时会使用社交媒体与他人分享他们的经历,搜索信息,并寻求社会支持。虽然一些观察者在社交媒体上为受害者提供支持和包容,但其他观察者将受害者的困境归咎于受害者,并参与再次受害和排斥。指责受害者可能导致社会排斥,对社会中已经面临被排斥风险的人造成不成比例的影响,并可能使现有的种族、族裔、性别和经济不平等现象永久化。这项研究提供了一个理论框架,以确定观察者在社交媒体上对受害者做出如此广泛回应的原因。具体而言,我们考虑了特定类型的行动者(观察者)之间的社会现象(受害者责备),理论(公正世界理论)和信息技术工件(社交媒体)的融合的社会包容和排斥。我们的社交媒体包容和排斥的理论框架是由公正世界理论提供的,并考虑了社交媒体功能如何促进社交媒体的包容或排斥。我们还提供了研究问题,以激发与社交媒体包容,社交媒体排斥和公正世界理论相关的未来研究。
