Abstract In recent years we have witnessed a significant growth of social‐computing communities—online services in which users share information various forms. As content contributions from participants are critical to the viability these communities, it is important understand what drives participate and with others such settings. We extend previous literature on user contribution by studying factors that associated forms participation large online photo‐sharing community. Using survey...

The success of Wikipedia demonstrates that self-organizing production communities can produce high-quality information-based products. Research on has proceeded largely atheoretically, focusing (1) the diversity in members' knowledge bases as a determinant Wikipedia's content quality, (2) task-related conflicts occur during collaborative authoring process, and (3) different roles members play Wikipedia. We develop theoretical model explains how these three factors interact to determine...

Data visualization has been used extensively to inform users. However, little research done examine the effects of data in influencing users or making a message more persuasive. In this study, we present experimental fill gap and an evidence-based analysis persuasive visualization. We built on persuasion from psychology user interfaces literature order explore study define circumstances under which can make persuasive, propose hypotheses, perform quantitative qualitative analyses studies...

Abstract The use of digital libraries has seen steady growth in the past two decades. However, as with other new technologies, effective depends on user acceptance, which turn is affected by users' perception system's ease use. Since introduction technologies often involves some form change for users, recent identification resistance to (RTC) personality trait, and development a scale measure it, provides an opportunity assess impact RTC users library system. Drawing prior research focused...

Digital citizen science offers a low-cost way to strengthen the scientific infrastructure, and engage members of public in science. It is based on two pillars:(1)a technological pillar, which involves developing computer systems manage large amounts distributed resources, (2) motivational attracting retaining volunteers who would contribute their skills, time, effort cause. While dimension has been widely studied, received little attention date. To address this gap, we surveyed at...

In this paper, we present an empirical analysis of deceptive visualizations. We start with in-depth what deception means in the context data visualization, and categorize visualizations based on type they lead to. identify popular distortion techniques those distortions can be applied to, formalize why occurs distortions. create four using selected techniques, run a crowdsourced user study to deceptiveness then findings our show how each these visual are, for kind questions misinterpretation...

Recent research has begun to focus on the factors that cause people respond phishing attacks. In this study a real-world spear-phishing attack was performed employees in organizational settings order examine how users' personality, attitudinal and perceived efficacy affect their tendency expose themselves such an attack. Spear-phishing attacks are more sophisticated than regular as they use personal information about intended victim present stronger challenge for detection by both potential...

Abstract We examined the separate influences of volunteers' personal motives and their team leaders' behaviors on volunteer satisfaction contributions, along with mediating processes suggested by self‐determination theory. Participants were 302 volunteers who worked in teams at various sites through a central agency. As predicted, both for volunteering transformational leadership influenced enhanced work meaningfulness higher‐quality relationships. However, that predicted contribution...

Abstract We introduce a simple method of recovering attention costs from choice data. Our rests on precise analogy with production theory. Costs determine consumer demand and welfare, just as competitive firm’s technology determines its supply curve profits. implement our recovery experimentally, outline applications, link work to the broader literature inattention mistaken decisions.

We propose and test a framework of the antecedents contribution in two technology-mediated citizen science projects, with different degrees task granularity. Comparing earlier findings on motivations volunteers web-based image analysis project (high granularity), new volunteer computing (low we found that participation granularity is correlated motivation levels. Further, collective intrinsic motives are most salient motivational factors, whereas reward less important for volunteers....

To achieve high accuracy in machine learning (ML) systems, practitioners often use complex "black-box" models that are not easily understood by humans. The opacity of such has resulted public concerns about their high-stakes contexts and given rise to two conflicting arguments the nature — even existence accuracy-explainability trade-off. One side postulates model explainability inversely related, leading black-box when is important. other this argument holds trade-off rarely observed...

Abstract Importance Chatbots could play a role in answering patient questions, but patients’ ability to distinguish between provider and chatbot responses, trust chatbots’ functions are not well established.

Individual users are known to differ in their tendency adopt new technologies. Among the individual differences, Personal Innovativeness IT (PUT) has been shown be a reliable predictor of users' beliefs about ease use and usefulness However, it is unclear what personality traits that make some more innovative than others. Personality used psychology literature explain human behavior, recently see growing interest IS as an explanatory tool user behavior. The present research investigates two...

Abstract In this paper we extend earlier work on the role of personality trait resistance to change (RTC) in adoption digital libraries. We present an integrative study, drawing a number research streams, including IT adoption, social psychology, and digital‐library acceptance. Using structural equation modeling, confirm RTC as direct antecedent effort expectancy. addition, also find that by affecting computer anxiety result demonstrability, acts indirect both expectancy performance...

As Wikipedia has become an indispensable source of online information, concerns about who writes, edits, and maintains it have come to the forefront. In particular, 2010 UNU-MERIT survey found evidence a significant gender skew: fewer than 13% contributors are women. However, number is just one way examine differences in contribution. this paper we take more fine-grained perspective by examining how much what types Wiki-work men women tend do. First, find that so-called "Gender Gap" editors...
