The World

We report on an empirical investigation of the internationalization of an online community of practice situated in academe and which fosters among its members communication and collaboration. Attracting additional active participants throughout the world is an important goal for many online professional communities. Based on theories and findings in the innovation diffusion and international business literature, we propose that cultural distance has significant negative effects on the activity of an online community encompassing different countries, while economic conditions will moderate this negative impact. An empirical study based on the archival data from AIS-ISWorld, an online community of information systems academics, supports our central hypotheses.

Information Trust

This empirical study applies an existing scale to measure trust in the context of virtual communities on the Internet, and explores factors that build trust in this unique environment. The results show that trust is composed of two dimensions: trust in others’ abilities and trust in benevolence/integrity. In addition, this research found that trust has relationships with perceived responsiveness, disposition to trust, and perceptions regarding the degree to which others confide personal information. Trust itself affected participants’ desire to get and to provide information to others in the online community.

Counterfeit Products

The emergence of Internet product sales platform has not only greatly enriched consumers’ choices and facilitated their purchasing behavior but also provided space for counterfeit products and relevant fraudulent signal strategies in China, which damage the consumer’s rights and interests and further disrupt the normal order of the e-commerce market. However, effective empirical study on the long-term and dynamic influence mechanism of fraudulent signals of counterfeit products and the seller incentive mechanism is still unavailable in academic circles, especially in the Chinese market, where government regulation is deemed to be lacking. For the purpose of this paper, an empirical study has been conducted by virtue of Internet e-commerce platform data based on data capture technology to analyze the dynamic performance effect mechanism of e-commerce fraudulent signals of counterfeit products under multiple game conditions. The study results show that selling of counterfeit products by using fraudulent signals can improve the current sales performance, but it will cause a long-term performance decline consequently. Additionally, from the perspective of the pricing mechanism, this paper analyzes the said seller incentive mechanism of counterfeit products. Finally, this paper puts forward relevant management suggestions based on the empirical study findings.
