Turning Uncertainty into Opportunity: Preference Uncertainty Can Be Beneficial When Consumers Have Outcome Uncertainty
Consumers can experience two types of uncertainty when purchasing a product. Preference uncertainty refers to the uncertainty associated with the horizontal product benefits one desires (e.g., “How strong do I want my coffee to be?”). Outcome uncertainty refers to the uncertainty associated with the actual benefits the product will deliver (e.g., “How strong will the coffee be?”). Ideally, retailers should strive for outcome certainty (i.e., stan…

Study 3 demonstrates that time horizon predicts intertemporal choice only when the intertemporal choice can help address…
How the perceived cost of prosocial action inspires observers to contribute
Conventional wisdom suggests that people are less likely to help when doing so involves a high cost. However, through five experiments, this work demonstrates that when a donor's prosocial action is perceived as costlier, observers are more likely to follow the donor and engage in the same prosocial behaviour (Study 1a, N = 154; Study 1b, N = 127). The effect cannot be attributed to observers’ original preferences for costly prosocial action itse…

Neural Graph Collaborative Filtering
Learning vector representations (aka. embeddings) of users and items lies at the core of modern recommender systems. Ranging from early matrix factorization to recently emerged deep learning based methods, existing efforts typically obtain a user's (or an item's) embedding by mapping from pre-existing features that describe the user (or the item), such as ID and attributes. We argue that an inherent drawback of such methods is that, the collabora…
