    Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) is used to analyze the complex relationships between observed variables and latent variables. Covariance-based structural equation modeling (CB-SEM) and partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) are the two types of SEM. SEM has been widely used in social science such as organizational management, information systems, marketing management and other disciplines. In recent years the number of research papers using PLS-SEM method has increased. Since CB-SEM and PLS-SEM are different in algorithm and requirements, the application of unsuitable methods may lead to inaccurate results. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the differences between the two methods and report guidelines. This paper reviews the conditions and application criteria of CB-SEM and PLS-SEM, and takes the use of fintech by wealth management enterprises as an example to compare the analysis process and results of the two methods, emphasizing the importance and necessity of choosing appropriate methods. This paper provides a valuable reference for researchers to use SEM for accurate data analysis.

    The fact that conversational commerce has been one of the most favorable ways for companies to reach customers has generated an increasing number of use cases for chatbots. Making a comparison between human-chatbot communication and human-human communication can shed light on the behavioral rules which determine how humans interact with intelligent agents and provide design and application guidelines for chatbots. This study compares human-chatbot conversation with human-human conversation in the context of online customer service to figure out whether two-sided arguments have different effects on users’ purchase intentions and experiences. A laboratory experiment is conducted with a 2 (user’s perception of the customer service agent: chatbot vs. human) 2 (conversation design: two-sided argument vs. one-sided argument). The experiment applies Wizard of Oz method, with humans performing service tasks while giving the impression to that users they are chatting with chatbots. The results show that in human-human communication, two-sided arguments have a negative impact on users’ purchase intention for the product, while in human-chatbot communication, the effect is non-significant. When users believe they are interacting with a chatbot, the positive effects of two-sided arguments on user perceptions of source credibility and pleasure are amplified.

    This study conducts a content analysis of 282 Chinese research papers published from 2012 to 2022 that use secondary analysis in the area of information management and information systems (IM&IS), aiming to reveal the distribution and trend of research methods, topics, and theory applications. The results show that the advantages of secondary analysis in data acquisition and causality identification are increasingly prominent, as reflected in the gradual diversity of data sources, rigorous empirical analysis on causality testing, richer mechanism analyses, and the emergence of mixed-method research. Four research topic trends have been identified, including macro digital development, enterprise digital transformation, information interaction between enterprise and market, and user online behavior. However, IM&IS theory development and the application of Chinese theories require further improvement. This study is novel in that it combines bibliometric analysis with machine learning methods (LDA and DTM) to reveal a multi-dimensional overview of the secondary analysis in IM&IS in China. The findings provide evidence and guidelines for further strengthening research norms, grasping research topic trends, developing and applying theories, as well as suggestions for disciplinary development and strategic research planning.

    Yang Siyi Dou Yifan
    Journal of Information Resources Management    2023, 13 (3): 100-111.   DOI: 10.13365/j.jirm.2023.03.100
    Abstract349)      PDF(pc) (4766KB)(365)       Save
    In live-streaming e-commerce shows, the reputation of anchor plays a central role because it simultaneously affects the brand-side price negotiation and the anchor-side long-run profitability. This paper examines the effect of the anchors’ reputation on price negotiation with Nash bargaining model in light of the conflict between brands’ myopic focus on one-off profits and anchors’ focus on long-term reputation. Our analytical and numerical results suggest that the negotiated price is non-monotonically affected by the reputation concern. An anchor with a greater reputation concern may receive a smaller discount. Besides, the brand, the anchor, and consumers all benefit when the anchor has a moderate concern for his or her reputation.

    Shao Xiuyan Cao Cong Wang Ping
    Journal of Information Resources Management    2023, 13 (3): 23-38.   DOI: 10.13365/j.jirm.2023.03.023
    Abstract330)      PDF(pc) (2915KB)(357)       Save
    Protecting consumers’ privacy, eliminating their privacy concerns, and encouraging their self-disclosure are essential for online shopping platforms to promote personalized products and services, and maintain core competitiveness. In order to clarify the mechanism of privacy assurance mechanisms, this study integrated the elaboration likelihood model and herding theory, collected 231 samples through an online survey, and analyzed the data using SmartPLS. The results show that both trust belief and herd mentality significantly affect consumers’ privacy disclosure behavior, while trust belief has a greater effect. Both direct and indirect privacy assurance mechanisms establish consumers’ trust on platforms, however, direct privacy assurance mechanism is more effective of establishing consumers’ trust. The reputation of the platform affects consumers’ herd mentality. Consumers with higher analysis ability are more inclined to form trust belief based on platforms’ direct privacy assurance mechanism, whereas consumers with lower analysis ability rely more on peripheral cues to form trust beliefs and herd mentality. This study complements and improves the extant research, and provides useful guidelines for online shopping platforms and consumers on better privacy protection.

    The Effect of the Anti-monopoly of Platform Economy on Community Group-buying Users’ Discontinuance Intention: A Perspective of Perceived Price and Disconfirmation
    Liu Qihua Peng Sijie Xu Liyang Zhou Jingyi
    Journal of Information Resources Management    2023, 13 (3): 39-60.   DOI: 10.13365/j.jirm.2023.03.039

    Against the backdrop of the anti-monopoly of platform economy, community group-buying platforms are no longer able to dump goods at low prices or provide high subsidies to attract users. Will online users continue to use community group-buying? From the perspective of perceived price and disconfirmation, this study constructs a theoretical model of users’ community group-buying discontinuance intention influenced by the anti-monopoly of platform economy and uses PLS-SEM to analyze data from 542 valid users. It is found that, as a result of the anti-monopoly effect of platform economy, an increase in perceived price leads to product quality disconfirmation and service quality disconfirmation, thus increasing dissatisfaction, which positively affects discontinuance intention. In addition, for users with high price sensitivity, the increase in perceived price leads to greater product quality disconfirmation, but not to greater service quality disconfirmation. This study enriches and expands the research on online users’ discontinuance intention, expectation-disconfirmation theory, and platform governance, which provides useful suggestions for platform merchants, managers, and regulators.

    Zhang Shiying Li Yang
    Journal of Information Resources Management    2023, 13 (4): 60-71.   DOI: 10.13365/j.jirm.2023.04.060
    Abstract276)      PDF(pc) (4153KB)(155)       Save
    Existing emergency intelligence support has some deficiencies, such as static knowledge, fuzzy reasoning, and spatial homogeneity. The paper proposes a path of emergency intelligence support that integrates eventic graph and network opinion analysis, aiming to improve the situational awareness and predictive response capability of emergencies in complex situations, and support emergency intelligence paradigm innovation in the era of digital intelligence empowerment. The paper constructs a framework for emergency intelligence support from the integrated perspective of reasoning and knowledge fusion, business and network fusion, and carries out empirical research using hazardous chemical accidents as an illustration. The work includes building a database of relevant emergencies, portraying the development logic of emergencies using an eventic graph, and describing the impact of emergencies in cyberspace using online opinion analysis techniques. This provides intelligence support for emergency management and decision making for new emergencies. The intelligence support path proposed in this paper can take into account the characteristics of multi-source spatial data as well as the integration of event logic and knowledge, allowing for a more systematic "past-future" intelligence prediction of emergencies. The empirical study and validation of hazardous chemical accidents also show good knowledge presentation and intelligence reasoning.

    Abstract264)      PDF(pc) (11582KB)(127)       Save
    This paper focuses on typical cases of major public health emergencies, integrates emotion feedback theory, Person-situation Interaction hypothesis, and a four-stage life-cycle model of crisis management to construct a conceptual model, and uses a vector autoregressive model and impulse response function to analyze the dynamic mechanisms of personality traits of netizens on emotions and information sharing behavior in different life-cycles of EID online public opinion. Experimental results show that personality traits dynamically moderate the relationship between emotions and information sharing behavior. During buildup, breakout, and abatement stages, high neuroticism has a positive and short-term moderating effect on the relationship between fear and information sharing behavior. During breakout and abatement stages, high extroversion has a positive and short-term moderating effect on the relationship between fear and information sharing behavior. In each of the four stages, openness and agreeableness have different moderating effects, which would amplify information sharing behavior to varying degrees.

    Mining and releasing enterprise data factor value is of great significance to cultivate enterprise core competitiveness and to promote social economic growth. Based on literature research, comparative analysis and other methods, this paper comprehensively uses synergy theory and data value chain theory to analyze the connotation mechanism of data factor value creation, and then based on the coupling of data chain and value chain, this paper builds the analysis framework of the collaborative work scene within the enterprise and the collaborative co-governance scene outside the enterprise. The results suggest that: (1)Chinese enterprises lack the analytical ability of data value system, fail to set up data resource management system, and cannot achieve the collaborative development of data utilization and business scenarios; (2)It is difficult to form a value co-creation network with data sharing and exchange as the core because the data sharing channels between enterprises are not smooth, the data relationship is not harmonious, and the interest balance mechanism is not perfect; (3)The two-way data flow sharing mechanism between enterprises and the government is not perfect, and the government-enterprise data coordination supervision and cultivation system is not complete; (4)It is difficult to balance the protection of data rights and the pursuit of data interests between enterprises and individuals. Therefore, this paper puts forward the practical approach of data factor value creation in China from two perspectives: (1)improving the collaborative research ability of data factor value creation within enterprises, and (2)establishing a multi-agent collaborative and co-governing data ecology outside enterprises.

    Companies use online brand communities to facilitate user interaction behaviors as a major path to value co-creation. Through in-depth interviews with 19 active community members, data were collected and programmatically coded using a grounded theory approach to construct a theoretical model of the transformation process and drivers of user interaction behavior. According to the extent of user participation in value co-creation in the community, user interaction behavior can be classified as human-machine interaction, human-human interaction and human-enterprise interaction. The transition from human-machine interaction to human-human interaction is mainly influenced by information quality, social experience and self-realization, while the transition from human-human interaction to human-enterprise interaction is mainly influenced by community incentive, social enhancement and symbiotic co-creation. And the driving factors of users’ behavioral transitions can be categorized into visceral layer, behavioral layer and reflective layer, with information quality and community incentives in the visceral layer playing a greater role in the early stages of each behavioral transition, while self-realization and symbiotic co-creation in the reflective layer having the most effective and longest driving role. The results provide a theoretical reference for an indepth understanding of the transformation mechanism of user interaction behaviors in online brand communities, as well as suggestions for enterprises to target the promotion of user interaction behaviors and value co-creation at different stages.

    As the amount of user-generated content grows, an increasing number of users start to delete previous posts. Information deletion in social media is not only a personal information management behavior for social media users but also has an impact on the development of social platforms content resources. Based on self-awareness theory and the perspectives of defense acquisition information management, this study investigates the motivations behind the deletion behavior of WeChat users' moments. The results of Structural Equation Modeling demonstrate that information security, field environment, and content value of defensive management have a significantly positive influence on information deletion behavior, and that the level of self-disclosure plays a mediating role in the relationships between information security, information value, and social media information deletion behavior. The research contributes to a comprehensive understanding of social media users' usage paradigm and provides decision support for the utilization of social media data and economic development of platforms.

    The development of data and intelligence technologies is promoting the transformation from "digital GLAMs" to "smart GLAMs". In the transformation from digitalization to datafication and then to intelligence, the cultural heritage resources of GLAMs show the multi-model characteristics of multimedia, multi-format and multi-granularity. Aiming at the problem of how GLAMs provide intelligent services based on multmodel cultural heritage resources, this paper summarizes the transformation path of cultural heritage resources from digital, data to intelligent services based on case analysis and literature research. According to the low to high degree of resource intelligence, inteligent services can be summarized into three modes: available, evidential and experiential, which correspond to three different demand scenarios: resource-centered services, digital intelligence evidence-based services, and interactive experience-centered services. It is concluded that the intelligent services of multi-model cultural heritage resources are to predict in advance and automatically adapting to users' needs for different modes of cultural heritage resources in different demand scenarios.

    Market circulation of data elements is a key link to activate the economic and social value of all kinds of data and build a data resource system, which directly affects the effectiveness of the construction of digital China. Government data authorization operation and data trading platform are two main modes of market circulation of data elements. In this study, eight market-based circulation platforms with data elements were selected to carry out comparative analysis from six dimensions, including the composition of working capital, platform participants, platform data sources, product and service types, data rights confirmation paths and technical solution applications. Based on the analysis results and the information ecology theory, this findings show that the data element market ecosystem is composed of data products and services, data subject, data platform and data environment. The ecosystem needs the support of the cooperation mechanism of data community, the linkage mechanism of the two modes and the interaction mechanism between inner and outer circles. This study has significant implications for future development: It is necessary to enrich and innovate application scenarios to drive the integrated development of data elements, establish income distribution mechanism to crack the conflicts of interest among data subjects, and promote the safe and reliable market circulation of digital technology, so as to promote the construction of market circulation ecosystem of data elements.

    In recent years, the case study method has been attached great importance and widely used in the domestic management academia. However, the development of domestic case studies was hindered by a number of typical problems that led to weak theoretical contributions. In order to address these problems, this paper argues that the researcher should carry on in-depth dialogues with literature, theory, phenomenon, methodology and self in conducting case study research. We analyze exemplary case studies from leading journals in the field of information systems and refine the aforementioned five aspects into nine specific academic dialogues. The “best practices” highlighted in these exemplary case studies provide researchers with rich and referential examples. Finally, we make some suggestions on how to improve the quality of domestic case studies.

    In the context of the new development pattern, data element governance demands simultaneous attention to both development and security, while unleashing the value of data elements and addressing emerging risk challenges. Nevertheless, current research has given limited consideration to the integration of data element value and risk. Based on the principle of risk-return tradeoff, this study examines the "effect exclusion" and "state symbiosis" relationship between data element value and risk. Furthermore, it draws on information ecology theory, domestic typical cases, and foreign policies and laws to investigate the dilemma and prevention mechanisms of data element governance. The study provides a comprehensive and systematic analysis of the practical dilemmas and prevention strategies faced in data element governance by considering a balance between value and risk aspects. It also offers significant directions for future research.

    Based on the elaboration likelihood model, the current study takes fact-checking interruption as the research object, and explores the impact of two fact-checking mechanisms, source rating and content rating, on users' perceived information credibility and subsequent information participation behavior. The moderating effect of prior knowledge is also investigated. Through an online scenario-based experiment involving 202 subjects, the present study found that both source and content rating mechanisms positively affect perceived credibility. Subsequently, perceived credibility has a positive impact on reading, liking, posting supportive comments and forwarding information, but has had no significant impact on posting rebutted comments. Prior knowledge has a negative moderating effect on the relationship between content rating and perceived credibility, but has no significant moderating effect on the relationship between source rating and perceived credibility. The present study enriches the literature and theories related to the credibility of health information in social media and offers managerial insights for the development of a social media information intervention mechanism.

    Using social network analysis, this article investigates the employment mobility network of the first generation of LIS professionals and discusses the characteristics of their mobility in the context of national policies such as "graduation allocation". The study finds that during the initial employment mobility period, 220 out of 393 people had no turnover of units in their initial employment. Beijing and Hubei were the leading places for professional outflows, while Peking University and Wuhan University played key roles in supplying professionals. However, during the job change mobility period, the employment mobility of the first generation of LIS professionals has increased since the Reform and Opening Up. A large number of them relocated to the southern and southeastern coastal regions. Moreover, the graduation allocation system had a very important impact on the employment mobility of the first generation of LIS professionals. This article then suggests the possibility of constructing a system for the education of directed LIS professionals.

    Highly cited papers have high academic discourse and reference values. The research on the identification of the core factors of highly cited papers is very important for academic papers to obtain citations and to establish and strengthen the competitive advantage. This paper extracts, screens, and forms a set of internal and external influencing factors of academic papers through the combination of literature extraction and questionnaire. It then explores the linear and nonlinear influence of these factors on highly cited papers by means of logistic regression. Finally, this paper uses various classical classification algorithms of machine learning to test the robustness of the above results. The results show that the quality and age of references both have a significant positive linear effect on the formation of highly cited papers, and with the increase of variable values, the quadratic coefficient has a strong superposition effect. In addition, journal reputation has an approximate linear effect on the formation of highly cited papers. However, the indicators such as the author’s reputation, usage and initial citation have a significant positive linear influence on the formation of highly cited papers. With the increase of variable values, the linear effect of the quadratic coefficient gradually weakens, showing a semi-"inverted U" trend of first increasing and then leveling off. Machine learning classical classification algorithms such as decision tree, naive bayes and random forest all show good prediction results for highly cited papers, which shows that the research results of this paper are robust.

    Based on the diffusion theory, this article analyses the decision-making mechanism of medical individuals’ forwarding and donation behaviors at the micro level, and explores the influencing factors of medical crowdfunding information diffusion and platform broadcashing strategies via simulation experiments. The result shows that, the project information and word-of-mouth have an impact on the diffusion rate of medical crowdfunding information, but neither has a significant impact on the fundrcising; The node degree of initiators has a positive impact on both the diffusion rate and fundraising result; The use of platform broadcast strategy can effectively expand the proportion of potential decision-makers, so that initiators are no longer limited to their own social circles, and thus promoting fundraising equity; The larger the platform broadcast cycle and the larger the proportion of broadcasters, the more effective the donor ratio and the diffusion rate are, but when the cycle exceeds 50% of the natural diffusion cycle and the broadcast ratio exceeds 80%, the marginal profit of increasing the cost of strategy investment becomes lower.

    Library science education (LSE) in China requires a clear process of intercultural communication. However, not all intercultural communication in education is spontaneous, active, or unconditional. Adopting a communication theory, the paper reports on a study, that explores the process of intercultural communication at Chinese LSE over the past century. The study employed a structured literature review and examined relevant research literature through systematic literature retrieval and screening, as well as thematic analysis. The analysis of the literature data revealed three major themes regarding the mechanism of intercultural communication at LSE: inter-subjective relationship, inter-subjective behavior, and path selection. The analysis revealed that people are the most important element in intercultural communication, and LSE in China has paved the way for intercultural communication, through staff mobility, teaching and research cooperation, international conferences, internationalization of journals, and online education. This paper aims to provide new insights for Chinese LSE going global, as well as to help international colleagues understand the development of Chinese LSE.

    Personal financial information infringement incidents such as excessive collection, illegal processing, information leakage and abuse, will not only infringe upon the legitimate rights and interests of consumers, affect the normal operation of financial institutions, but also may lead to systematic financial risks. Currently, since the traditional personal information protection mode is unable to reconcile the contradiction between "utilization" and "protection" in the era of Fintech, it has been unable to cope with many risks and challenges. This paper aims to answer three major questions pertaining to personal financial information protection in the era of fintech, which are identification of the subject and object, establishment of protection principles and improvement of protection measures. To obtain the answer, this paper adopts the logical framework of "sorting out the current situation and problems, mechanism analysis and principle establishment, proposing general design and measures", systematically analyzing the protection modes of personal financial information at home and abroad. Finally, this paper constructs a conceptual model of personal financial information protection in the era of fintech, puts forward specific protection measures based on the advanced protection experience of developed countries, and tries to provide a new way of thinking for the improvement and optimization regarding China’ s personal financial information protection mode.

    Research on data sovereignty rules is helpful for different entities to understand China's data sovereignty rule system, as well as for the standardized expression of rule texts, thereby reducing the cost of data sovereignty compliance. According to the three key process areas of local storage, cross-border flow and extraterritorial jurisdiction, 46 samples related to data sovereignty were screened, 148 rule texts were extracted, and the grounded theory method was used to manually code multiple times with NVivo12 Plus. The hierarchy of data sovereignty rules is composed of objects, subjects and obligations. The objects are divided into 7 categories: data, information, equipment, key information infrastructure, security, interests and rights. The subjects include 6 categories: state, party institutions, administrative subjects, public affairs subjects, enterprise subjects and other subjects. The obligations encompass 29 categories, including security assessment, outbound security assessment, personal information impact assessment, data security protection, within-territory data storage, within-territory information storage, with-territory equipment building, entity establishment, compliance with compliance requirements, reporting obligation, listing and announcement.Overall, the data sovereignty rule system is complete, covering various types of rule fields such as legal norms, departmental norms, and standard norms; Data sovereignty exhibits a "defensive" characteristic, namely orderly flow, appropriate localization, and necessary jurisdiction.

    From the perspective of culture, the paper describes the development of library science education in China over the past century and analyzes the cultural factors that have influenced this development, so as to reveal the path of library science education’ s impact on culture and help library science education with chinese characteristics go global and realize the strategy of building a strong cultural country.Using the method of literature research and historical research, and with the help of the theory of cultural functions of education, this paper expounds the interactive mechanism and outcomes of library science education and culture in China for more than a hundred years. Taking history as a mirror, it proposes the developing direction of library science education boosting the realization of building a strong cultural country. The paper finds that library science education and culture are closely linked. The New Culture Movement gave birth to library science education. Chinese traditional culture has become an inexhaustible driving force to promote the localization of library science education. The Sinicization of Marxism has also profoundly affected the development direction of library science education in China. At the same time, the integration of multiculturalism has facilitated the transformation of library science education concepts. Moreover, library science education has had an important impact on culture. Under the strategy of cultural power, it should play a larger role.

    Qiu Shuyi Ma Ling
    Journal of Information Resources Management    2024, 14 (1): 84-97.   DOI: 10.13365/j.jirm.2024.01.084
    Abstract148)      PDF(pc) (1049KB)(40)       Save
    Traffic conversion from question browsing to answering is of great significance to Q&A community. It is regarded as a multi-factor concurrent process of the synergy of information clues within the Q&A interface. Employing fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis, this study examines 2,085 questions from Zhihu to explore how traffic conversion in the Q&A community can be facilitated, with supplementary insights from regression analysis. The findings reveal that the configuration path of high traffic conversion rate includes readable question type of "low competition-high social concern" and "low competition-strong social influence". Conversely, the configuration path for non-high traffic conversion rates is causal asymmetry. Furthermore, the configuration paths of high traffic conversion are different for questions with different degrees of knowledge structure. These findings elucidate the user attention distribution in Q&A communities during the transition from browsers to answerers and reveal the mechanisms of traffic conversion, which helps to facilitate traffic conversion of knowledge sharing platform and optimize the Q&A interface design.

    Avoiding Search Disorientation: A Study on the Cognitive Orientation Function of Note-Taking in the Complex and Exploratory Search
    Meng Gaohui Liu Chang
    Journal of Information Resources Management    2023, 13 (4): 122-139.   DOI: 10.13365/j.jirm.2023.04.122
    Abstract147)      PDF(pc) (5371KB)(36)       Save
    Based on an ideal research context of complex and exploratory search task, this paper explores whether note-taking can play the cognitive orientation function and identifies the functional differences between different note-taking strategies to find more possibilities for note-taking to support the use’s search process. We collected data through user experimentation. In the data analysis stage, we first developed the Subjective Evaluation Scale for the Performance in the Complex and Exploratory Search Process through item analysis, factor analysis, and reliability and validity test, and then used descriptive statistics and paired sample difference test to explore the effect of note-taking on the participants' search process. The results show that note-taking can serve the cognitive orientation function during the search process. The cognitive navigation function is mainly reflected in user’s performance on coping with search disorientation during the search process, performance on monitoring during the search process, and performance on proceeding in order during the search process. In addition, compared with outline notes, matrix notes can contribute more to cognitive orientation. These conclusions can inspire the information retrieve system to improve its note-taking service to better support complex or exploratory search context.

    As a fundamental part of the innovation of independent knowledge systems, the fusion of conceptual knowledge elements is an important way of knowledge creation. It is an important fundamentally theoretical problem of knowledge creation to reveal the fusion generation mechanism for conceptual morphological knowledge elements. First, the connotation, structure and content description model of conceptual knowledge element are described. Second, the generation path of conceptual knowledge elements is revealed from the perspective of semantic recombination. Finally, based on the above research, the semantic fusion generation framework of conceptual knowledge elements is constructed. The generation path of conceptual knowledge elements through semantic fusion is primarily comprised of the introduction of foreign knowledge, the discovery of knowledge correlation and the selective evolution of knowledge. The semantic fusion generation framework of conceptual knowledge elements includes the acquisition, analysis, association construction and recombination of knowledge elements, which are controlled by corresponding psychological mechanisms.

    The level of personal information protection has become an important indicator to measure the ability of mobile government services. It is crucial to explore its influencing factors and configurational paths for promoting higher quality digital government construction. With 8 conditional variables setting based on TOE framework, this paper uses fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis method(fsQCA) to analyze the case from three aspects of technology, organization and enviroment with data from 30 provincial local governments. The result shows that technical, organizational and environmental factors all affect the personal information protection level of mobile government services, and the high-level paths can be classified into four types: competition-driven, technology-oriented, organization-empowered, and internally and externally linked. Local governments should take targeted measures in light of local conditions to better promote personal information protection.
