  • Research on the Influencing Factors of Online Short-term Rental Users’ Consumption Behavior Based on the eWOM Measured by BERT in the Post-pandemic Era

    Subjects: Library Science,Information Science >> Library Science submitted time 2023-10-08 Cooperative journals: 《知识管理论坛》

    Abstract: [Purpose/Significance] Exploring the influence factors of electronic word-of-mouth (eWOM) and user purchase behavior after the epidemic, so as to better attract users in the post-epidemic era, which is crucial for promoting the economic recovery of the online short-term rental industry. [Method/Process] This research obtained public data in Beijing area on Airbnb, and constructed a measurement index of eWOM based on BERT. Then based on the ELM, a model of influencing factors of online short-term rental users’ purchase behavior was constructed with 4 listing attributes and 6 landlord attributes. Finally, the empirical research was carried out. [Result/Conclusion] Using the average sentiment score of reviews calculated by the BERT model to measure online short-term rental eWOM provided ideas for confirming its substitute variables. Apart from the impact pathway of describing the surrounding environment of the listing, eWOM plays an intermediary role when other attributes of the listing and the landlord influencing user purchasing behavior. However, contrary to the research hypothesis, the number of listings held by the landlord will negatively and significantly affect the eWOM and sales of the listing, which may be due to the lower involvement of the landlord in a single listing. And the farther the listing is from the city center, the better the eWOM is, which is associated with the post-epidemic peripheral travel. Finally, based on the results of this study, we proposed relevant operational suggestions for landlords and platforms. In the post-epidemic era, listing descriptions should focus more on epidemic prevention measures, check-out policies and indoor activities, as well as avoiding redundancy with the description of the surrounding environment. At the same time, the peripheral travel boom can be seized to turn the challenges of the epidemic into development opportunities and enhance the competitive strength and business volume of online short term rental listings.

    Abstract: [Purpose/Significance] The purpose is to explore the predetermined behavior of resource demanders based on the information generated from the perspective of multi-layer trust on the shared service platform, so as to facilitate the recovery and sustainable development of the sharing economy in the postpandemic era.[Method/Process] Combined with the trust information of the supply and demand sides on the platform, between the supply and demand sides and the demand side on the shared products, based on the “3P+3I” theory from the perspective of multi-layer trust, a research model of consumer purchasing behavior of the shared service platform is constructed. Taking the shared short-term rental platform as an example, this paper obtained the public data of Airbnb in Beijing area, used Bert algorithm to construct the reputation index of housing products, and preliminary speculated the internal mechanism of user reservation behavior based on causal discovery algorithm in causal inference, and used Poisson regression to conduct empirical analysis.[Result/Conclusion] The trust variables of both parties to the platform, between the two parties and the demander to the shared product had a significant positive promoting effect on housing sales. The trust characteristics generate by hosts had the largest positive effect on tenants’ booking behavior. It is suggested that hosts should make great efforts to establish the reputation of hosts and disclose more information appropriately. In order to obtain the badge of “super host”, they can give priority to not providing “direct booking” service so as to screen out users who may have malicious comments. It is suggested that platforms strictly check the personal qualifications of users. More attention should be paid to improve the identity information authentication mechanism and comment incentive system for users, so as to reduce the uncertainty in users’ decision-making.

  • Research on The Knowledge Transfer Effect of Scientific Collaboration Based on Trust Mechanism

    Subjects: Library Science,Information Science >> Library Science submitted time 2023-05-22

    Abstract: Purpose/Significance Trust is a key factor in maintaining collaboration and will result in knowledge transfer between scientists. It enables knowledge transfer from individual ownership to multi-person sharing and further promotes scientific development. The study of trust mechanism-oriented knowledge transfer can help the maintenance of trust relationship among scientific collaborators and promote knowledge transfer, thus facilitating the further development of science. Methods/Process In this paper, we first quantified the trust of scientific collaborators using the American Physical Society dataset (APS) and analyzed the trust distribution pattern among collaborators. Then, the knowledge transfer between research collaborators is classified into implicit and explicit, and the paths of knowledge transfer in the collaborative network are sorted out. Finally, regression analysis is used to verify the effect of trust among collaborators on the amount of knowledge transfer. Results/Conclusions The basic trust and knowledge transfer between scientific collaborators had a clear pattern of temporal resonance. Collaborative teams that generated implicit transfer had lower trust. Explicit transfer was more correlated with the trust, but implicit transfer was more dependent on. By clarifying the influence of trust mechanisms on knowledge transfer in scientific research collaboration, this study extends the study of trusting emotions to trusting behaviors. By quantifying the trust between scientific collaborators, the limitations of measuring static trust in a cross-section of collaboration are reduced.
