Through a systematic literature review, we unravel current theorizing on private information disclosure (PID). We note that existing models of PID have mainly taken an individual-level perspective. In line with current understanding of privacy management, we posit that PID should be more systematically understood as a multilevel phenomenon, for two reasons. First, the disclosed information sometimes concerns multiple stakeholders beyond oneself. Second, disclosing private information can often be affected by hierarchically structured (nested) humans within social units. To this end, we propose a multilevel theoretical framework together with future recommendations, aimed at inspiring future multilevel PID research.
本文通过系统的文献综述,梳理了目前有关私人信息披露的理论研究现状。我们注意到,现有的PID模型主要采取个人层面的视角。根据目前对隐私管理的理解,我们认为PID应该被更系统地理解为一个多层次的现象,原因有二。首先,披露的信息有时涉及自身以外的多个利益相关者。其次,公开私人信息通常会受到社会单位中等级结构(嵌套)的人的影响。为此,我们提出了一个多层次的理论框架和未来的建议,旨在启发未来的多层次PID研究。

E-commerce firms engaged in online review manipulation mislead online consumers in their purchasing decision-making and undermine the credibility of the platform they are using. Although researchers have proposed various measures to combat review manipulation, few studies have considered platforms’ revenues from an economic perspective and explored how platforms affect the review manipulation of two asymmetrical firms. To fill this research gap, this paper develops a three-player game model to systematically explore the impact of review manipulation governance imposed by a platform on itself and on two asymmetrical firms offering substitutable commodities on the same platform. The results reveal that governance helps firms avoid situations in which they should engage in manipulation due to competitive pressures. Furthermore, even in the presence of governance, both firms may become trapped in a prisoner’s dilemma. Even if the platform imposes review manipulation governance, both firms and the platform can benefit from manipulation. We also consider the temporal effects of governance on the platform’s revenue and validate whether it is beneficial for the platform to impose review manipulation governance in the long run. Quantitative analysis is conducted to elucidate the benefits that can be attained by the three parties under different circumstances. This analysis holds practical significance for e-commerce platforms and firms seeking to impose appropriate measures pertaining to review manipulation.
操纵在线评论的电子商务公司误导了在线消费者的购买决策,破坏了他们使用的平台的可信度。尽管研究人员提出了各种措施来打击评论操纵,但很少有研究从经济角度考虑平台的收入,并探讨平台如何影响两个不对称公司的评论操纵。为了填补这一研究空白,本文建立了一个三人博弈模型,系统地探讨了一个平台强加的评论操纵治理对其自身以及在同一平台上提供可替代商品的两家不对称企业的影响。结果表明,治理有助于企业避免由于竞争压力而导致的操纵行为。此外,即使存在治理,两家公司也可能陷入囚徒困境。即使平台实施审查操纵治理,公司和平台都可以从操纵中受益。我们还考虑了治理对平台收入的时间效应,并验证了从长远来看,对平台实施审查操纵治理是否有益。通过定量分析,阐明在不同情况下三方可以获得的利益。这一分析对电子商务平台和企业寻求实施与审查操纵有关的适当措施具有实际意义。

This paper examines the conditions under which a paid viewership model generates more profits for Q&A platforms compared to a free viewership model. We find that when the unit cost of answer quality is low, the platform should adopt the free viewership model to attract more viewers. Otherwise, the paid viewership model is more profitable, as it incentivizes both askers and answerers to engage more actively. While the answerer consistently benefits more under the paid viewership model, active askers are better off only when the viewership fee remains low.
本文考察了付费收视模式比免费收视模式为问答平台带来更多利润的条件。我们发现,当回答质量的单位成本较低时,平台应该采用免费观看模式来吸引更多的观众。否则,付费观看模式更有利可图,因为它能激励提问者和回答者更积极地参与进来。在付费观看模式下,回答者总是受益更多,而主动提问者只有在观看费用保持较低的情况下才会受益。

Organizational resilience is crucial for information technology (IT) service vendors, as they are highly vulnerable to major exogenous shocks. Extant resilience studies in the information systems (IS) field focus on the resilience of IS or the resilience of organizations that utilize IS. However, neither perspective adequately addresses how IT service vendors build organizational resilience in response to exogenous shocks. Using the feedback loop, this study investigates how IT service vendors interact with their environment to build resilience. Through an in-depth case study of two Chinese IT offshoring vendors, we found that IT service vendors can build organizational resilience through outside-in and inside-out processes to form a new stable state after experiencing major exogenous shocks: (1) In the outside-in process, vendors absorb external resources to build new capabilities. The combination of developing resilient IT portfolios with the collective interpretation of business domains facilitates the process. (2) In the inside-out process, vendors establish and improve client relationships by demonstrating their solutions and experiences. Our findings unpack the resilience development process, enrich the understanding of resilience in IS research, and extend the literature on IT service vendors’ risk management and organizational resilience.
组织弹性对信息技术(IT)服务供应商至关重要,因为它们极易受到重大外生冲击。现有的信息系统(IS)领域的弹性研究主要集中在IS的弹性或利用IS的组织的弹性上。然而,这两种观点都没有充分解决IT服务供应商如何构建组织弹性以响应外部冲击的问题。使用反馈循环,本研究调查了IT服务供应商如何与其环境交互以构建弹性。通过对两家中国IT外包供应商的深入案例研究,我们发现IT服务供应商在经历重大外生冲击后,可以通过由外向内和由内向外的过程构建组织弹性,形成新的稳定状态:(1)在由外向内的过程中,供应商吸收外部资源,构建新的能力。将开发弹性IT投资组合与业务域的集体解释相结合,可以促进该过程。(2)在由内向外的过程中,供应商通过展示他们的解决方案和经验来建立和改善客户关系。我们的研究结果揭示了弹性的发展过程,丰富了弹性在信息系统研究中的理解,并扩展了关于IT服务供应商风险管理和组织弹性的文献。

Digitalization is widely regarded as a strategic approach to gaining competitive advantage. However, some firms have suffered from the digitalization paradox, meaning that investments in digitalization cannot always achieve the expected performance improvement. This study examines how the digitalization of a firm affects its financial performance and the moderating effect of digitalization proximity between the firm and its supplier. The results suggest an inverted U-shaped relationship between a firm’s digitalization and financial performance. Furthermore, the positive moderating role of digitalization proximity in this nonlinear relationship suggests that alignment with suppliers in digitalization allows a firm to materialize the benefits of digitalization. This study provides evidence of the complex relationship between digitalization and financial performance. It empirically demonstrates the importance of aligning with supply chain partners for digitalization to enhance performance benefits. It also offers practical guidance for managers in navigating the evolving digital landscape.
数字化被广泛认为是获得竞争优势的战略途径。然而,一些公司遭受了数字化悖论的困扰,这意味着数字化投资并不总是能实现预期的绩效改善。本研究考察了企业的数字化如何影响其财务绩效,以及企业与供应商之间的数字化接近度的调节作用。结果表明,企业数字化与财务绩效之间呈倒u型关系。此外,数字化接近度在这种非线性关系中的正向调节作用表明,在数字化中与供应商保持一致可以使企业实现数字化的利益。本研究为数字化与财务绩效之间的复杂关系提供了证据。它实证地证明了与供应链合作伙伴保持一致以实现数字化以提高绩效效益的重要性。它还为管理人员在不断变化的数字环境中导航提供了实用指导。

Communication and reflection abilities are critical in managing strategic cooperation between humans and Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI), especially when facing conflict in decision-making. This study introduces two variations of EmotionPrompt strategies, drawing on regulatory focus theory, to explore both individuals' perceptions of GAI ability and their empowerment in self-competence when handling disagreements. An experiment between humans and GAI chatbots in determining product promotion strategy showed that emotional prompts impact individuals' reappraisals of both chatbots and their own performance profoundly, cultivating self-determination in the final decision. Importantly, EmotionPrompt with promotion orientation can increase the perceived flexibility of chatbot decision-makers, facilitating individual self-enhancement and trust in GAI competence. In contrast, the prevention-oriented EmotionPrompt appears to constrain individuals' judgments and decision-making processes, as evidenced by the increased occurrence of inhibit words and anxiety emotions in their reflections. These findings provide novel perspectives on implementing specific regulatory-oriented EmotionPrompt strategies in GAI to address opinion conflicts in decision-making with humans.
沟通和反思能力在管理人类与生成式人工智能(GAI)之间的战略合作中至关重要,特别是在面临决策冲突时。本研究引入了EmotionPrompt策略的两种变体,利用调节焦点理论来探讨个体对GAI能力的感知以及他们在处理分歧时对自我能力的授权。一项人类与GAI聊天机器人确定产品推广策略的实验表明,情绪提示会深刻影响个人对聊天机器人和自身表现的重新评估,培养最终决策的自决权。重要的是,具有提升导向的EmotionPrompt可以增加聊天机器人决策者的感知灵活性,促进个人自我提升和对GAI能力的信任。相反,以预防为导向的EmotionPrompt似乎限制了个体的判断和决策过程,这可以从他们反思中抑制词和焦虑情绪的增加中得到证明。这些发现为在GAI中实施特定的以监管为导向的EmotionPrompt策略以解决与人类决策中的意见冲突提供了新的视角。

Heterogeneous cross-side network effects on peer-to-peer platforms: Implications of nonprofessional suppliers and professional suppliers 点对点平台的异构横向网络效应:非专业供应商和专业供应商的影响

Cross-side network effects (CNEs) have been widely acknowledged in platform literature for their central role in shaping platform growth and governance. While growing literature focuses on the relative strengths of CNEs driven by suppliers and consumers, most studies assume that suppliers are homogeneous and thereby overlook the potential heterogeneity of CNEs driven by different suppliers. This study contributes by further distinguishing between nonprofessional and professional suppliers on P2P platforms. Using panel-vector-auto-regression (PVAR) analysis, we examine whether the strengths of CNEs between suppliers and consumers are heterogeneous across these two types of suppliers. The empirical results suggest that regarding supplier-to-consumer CNEs, both the quantity and quality of nonprofessional suppliers (vs. professional suppliers) have stronger CNEs on consumer size. In turn, regarding consumer-to-supplier CNEs, consumer size has stronger CNEs on the quantity of nonprofessional suppliers (vs. professional suppliers) but has weaker CNEs on the quality of nonprofessional suppliers (vs. professional suppliers). These findings contribute to the theoretical understanding of the dynamic nature of CNEs and practical strategies for platform governance in coordinating with nonprofessional and professional suppliers.
横向网络效应(CNEs)在平台文献中因其在塑造平台增长和治理中的核心作用而得到广泛认可。虽然越来越多的文献关注由供应商和消费者驱动的CNEs的相对优势,但大多数研究假设供应商是同质的,从而忽略了由不同供应商驱动的CNEs的潜在异质性。本研究进一步区分了P2P平台上的非专业供应商和专业供应商。使用面板向量自回归(PVAR)分析,我们检验了供应商和消费者之间的CNEs优势在这两种类型的供应商之间是否存在异质性。实证结果表明,就供应商对消费者的CNEs而言,非专业供应商的数量和质量(相对于专业供应商)对消费者规模的CNEs更强。反过来,对于消费者对供应商的CNEs,消费者规模对非专业供应商数量的CNEs更强(与专业供应商相比),但对非专业供应商质量的CNEs更弱(与专业供应商相比)。这些发现有助于从理论上理解CNEs的动态性质,并有助于在与非专业和专业供应商协调时制定平台治理的实践策略。

This study aims to clarify an ongoing controversy among stakeholders in the video game domain by examining the differential effect of self-determined motivation and need frustration on adaptive game use and game addiction. The findings reveal that the factors related to self-determined motivation are more closely linked to adaptive game use. Conversely, those about need frustration are more tightly associated with game addiction. The results suggest that adolescents’ game addiction mainly stems from need frustration arising from an unsatisfactory reality. Academic stress emerges as the primary driver of the transition from adaptive game use to game addiction.
本研究旨在通过研究自我决定动机和需求挫折对适应性游戏使用和游戏成瘾的不同影响,澄清电子游戏领域利益相关者之间持续存在的争议。研究结果表明,与自我决定动机相关的因素与适应性游戏使用的关系更为密切。相反地,那些关于需求挫败感的内容则与游戏成瘾密切相关。结果表明,青少年游戏成瘾主要源于对现实不满意而产生的需求挫败感。学业压力成为从适应性游戏使用到游戏成瘾转变的主要驱动力。

Avatars, serving as a medium for users’ self-presentation, play a significant role in bridging the real and virtual worlds. Limited research has considered users’ desire to present their “hoped-for possible selves” when examining the effect of avatar design. This study addresses this gap by conducting four empirical investigations of the impact of avatar appearance design, particularly realism, on users’ continuing intention to use virtual products. It was found that low-realism avatars, as opposed to high-realism ones, increased users’ continuing use intention. Wishful identification and immersive experience serially mediated the avatar realism effect. The moderating role of users’ familiarity with other avatars was also examined, suggesting that when users were familiar with other avatars, the impact of avatar realism diminished. These findings provide significant contributions to the existing literature and offer actionable guidance for the design of avatars within social virtual environments.
化身作为用户自我展示的媒介,在连接现实世界和虚拟世界方面发挥着重要作用。在检验虚拟形象设计的效果时,有限的研究考虑了用户希望展示他们“希望的可能的自我”的愿望。本研究通过对虚拟形象外观设计(尤其是现实主义)对用户持续使用虚拟产品意愿的影响进行四项实证调查,解决了这一差距。研究发现,与高逼真度的虚拟形象相比,低逼真度的虚拟形象增加了用户的持续使用意愿。一厢情愿的认同和沉浸式体验依次介导了虚拟现实主义效应。用户对其他虚拟形象的熟悉程度也起到了调节作用,表明当用户熟悉其他虚拟形象时,虚拟形象现实性的影响减弱。这些发现为现有文献提供了重要的贡献,并为社交虚拟环境中的化身设计提供了可操作的指导。
