Angst</p> <p><strong>Publication:</strong> <em>Information Systems Research</em>, Vol. 30, No. 2, June 2019, Pages 563-594</p> <p><strong>Abstract:</strong></p> <p>Although significant research has examined the effect of enterprise information systems on the behavior and careers of employees, the majority of this work has been devoted to the study of blue- and gray-collar workers, with little attention paid to the transformative effect information technology may have on high-status professionals. In this paper, we begin to bridge this gap by examining how highly skilled professionals react to the increasing presence of enterprise systems within their organizations. Specifically, we investigate how the implementation of enterprise systems-in the form of electronic health records-affects the decision of physicians to continue practicing at their current hospital. Results suggest that when enterprise systems create complementarities for professionals, their duration of practice at the organization increases significantly. However, when technologies are disruptive and force professionals to alter their routines, there is a pronounced exodus from the organization. Interestingly, these effects are strongly moderated by individual and organizational characteristics, such as the degree of firm-specific human capital, local competition, and the prevalence of past disruptions, but are not associated with accelerated retirement or the strategic poaching of talent by competing organizations.</p> <p> Wed, 24 Jul 2019 15:08:21 +0000 angela.l.williams@mcgill.ca 74649 at /desautels /desautels/channels/news/professor-zhus-paper-wins-2021-wikimedia-foundation-research-award-year-330781 <p>Congratulations to <a href="/desautels/kai-zhu"><strong>Kai Zhu</strong></a>, Assistant Professor in Information Systems, whose paper won the 2021 Wikimedia Foundation Research Award of the Year.</p> Mon, 03 May 2021 14:33:18 +0000 angela.l.williams@mcgill.ca 80733 at /desautels /desautels/channels/news/manufacturers-1-used-games-insights-secondhand-market-video-games-329249 <p><strong>Authors: </strong>A.

Building on this literature, we study the implications of monetary incentives on online reviews in the context of a natural experiment, where one review platform suddenly began offering monetary incentives for writing reviews. We refer to this as the treated platform. Along with data from Amazon.com and using the difference-in-differences approach, we compare the quantity and quality of reviews before and after rewards were introduced in the treated platform. We find that reviews are significantly more positive but that the quality decreases. Taking advantage of the panel data, we also evaluate the effect of rewards on existing reviewers. We find that their level of participation after monetary incentives decreases but not their quality of participation. Last, even though the platform enjoys an increase in the number of new reviewers, disproportionately more reviews appear to be written for highly rated products.</p> <p><strong>Read abstract</strong>: <a href="https://pubsonline.informs.org/doi/10.1287/isre.2017.0750"><em>Information Systems Research</em></a></p> <p> Tue, 20 Nov 2018 15:04:03 +0000 angela.l.williams@mcgill.ca 73708 at /desautels /desautels/channels/news/enhancing-security-behaviour-supporting-user-285156 <p><strong>Authors</strong>: Steven Furnell, <strong><a href="/desautels/warut-khern-am-nuai">Warut Khern-am-nuai</a></strong>, Rawan Esmael, Weining Yang, Ninghui Li</p> <p><strong>Publication</strong>: <em>Computers and Security</em>, Vol. 75, June 2018</p> <p><strong>Abstract: </strong></p> Fri, 16 Feb 2018 20:16:54 +0000 thao.nguyen3@mail.mcgill.ca 68380 at /desautels /desautels/channels/news/popularity-or-proximity-characterizing-nature-social-influence-online-music-community-279292 <p><strong>Authors:</strong> Sanjeev Dewan, Yi-Jen (Ian) Ho and <a href="/desautels/jui-ramaprasad"><strong>Jui Ramaprasad</strong></a></p> <p><strong>Publication:</strong> <em>Information Systems Research</em>, Vol. 28, No. 1, March 2017</p> <p><strong>Abstract:</strong></p> <p>We study social influence in an online music community. In this community, users can listen to and “favorite” (or like) songs and follow the favoriting behavior of their social network friends—and the community as a whole. From an individual user’s perspective, two types of information on peer consumption are salient for each song: total number of favorites by the community as a whole and favoriting by their social network friends. Correspondingly, we study two types of social influence: popularity influence, driven by the total number of favorites from the community as a whole, and proximity influence, due to the favoriting behavior of immediate social network friends. Our quasi-experimental research design applies a variety of empirical methods to highly granular data from an online music community. Our analysis finds robust evidence of both popularity and proximity influence. Furthermore, popularity influence is more important for narrow-appeal music compared to broad-appeal music. Finally, the two types of influence are substitutes for one another, and proximity influence, when available, dominates the effect of popularity influence. We discuss implications for design and marketing strategies for online communities, such as the one studied in this paper.</p> <p><strong>Read full article:</strong> <a href="http://pubsonline.informs.org/doi/pdf/10.1287/isre.2016.0654" target="_blank"><em>Information Systems Research</em></a></p> <p> Wed, 18 Oct 2017 18:01:14 +0000 julie.lapalme@mcgill.ca 67996 at /desautels /desautels/channels/news/emmanuelle-vaast-awarded-isr-runner-best-paper-2016-282318 <p>Professor <strong><a href="/desautels/emmanuelle-vaast">Emmanuelle Vaast</a></strong>'s paper published in<em> Information Systems Research</em>, "Folding and Unfolding: Balancing Openness and Transparency in Open Source Communities," with Maha Shaikh has been awarded the runner-up for the best paper award for papers published in 2016 at ISR.</p> Fri, 27 Oct 2017 18:45:16 +0000 julie.lapalme@mcgill.ca 68024 at /desautels /desautels/research/desautels-top-tier-publications/information-systems-research <p><big><em><a href="http://pubsonline.informs.org/journal/isre" target="_blank">Information Systems Research</a></em> (ISR) is a leading peer-reviewed, international journal focusing on theory, research, and intellectual development for information systems in organizations, institutions, the economy, and society.
