  • Cognitive absorption and hedonic technology addiction: The mediating roles of impulsive urge and self-regulation

    Chongyang Chen, Meitong Zhou et al.•ARTICLE•Information Technology and People•2026

    Purpose Cognitive absorption is critical for hedonic technology addiction, yet the mediating mechanisms by which cognitive absorption affects hedonic technology addiction remain unclear. Drawing on dual-system theory, which posits that reflexive and reflective systems are pivotal in shaping user decisions and behaviors, this study seeks to deepen our understanding of the drivers of hedonic technology addiction. We conceptualize impulsive urge as …

  • What drives social shopping in social commerce platform? The effects of affordance, self-congruity and functional-congruity

    Xiang Gong, Yi Yang et al.•ARTICLE•Information Technology and People•2026•References: 87

    Purpose Social group system and social tagging system, which leverage the psychological mechanisms underlying group influence and social tags to drive consumer behaviors, have been prevalent in the social commerce platform. However, limited studies have examined how the affordances of social group system and social tagging system influence consumers’ social shopping behavior. The purpose of this study is to examine the formation of social shoppin…

  • Behavioral impulsion, habituation, or regulation? A tripartite model of hedonic technology addiction

    Open Access•Xiang Gong•ARTICLE•Internet Research•2025•References: 4

    Purpose Hedonic technology addiction is a prevalent unintended consequence that stems from the obsessive and compulsive pattern of hedonic technology use, yet its etiology remains unclear. Guided by dual-system theory, we developed a tripartite model that characterizes the behavioral impulsion system (BIS), behavioral habituation system (BHS), and behavioral regulation system (BRS) as the main drivers of hedonic technology addiction. Design/metho…

  • Behavioral dedication, constraint or obligation? A tripartite model of active participation in multiplayer online battle arena game community

    Open Access•Xiang Gong, Zhenxin Xiao et al.•ARTICLE•Information Technology and People•2024

    Purpose Active participation is critical to the survival and development of the multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game community. However, this issue has not received much attention in the information systems literature. To address this issue, we develop a tripartite model that accounts for the roles of behavioral dedication, constraint, obligation mechanisms on active participation in the MOBA community. Design/methodology/approach The rese…

  • Seeing the forest and the trees: A meta-analysis of the antecedents to online self-disclosure

    Ruihe Yan, Xiang Gong et al.•ARTICLE•Internet Research•2024•References: 1

    Purpose A wealth of studies have identified numerous antecedents to online self-disclosure. However, the number of competing theoretical perspectives and inconsistent findings have hampered efforts to obtain a clear understanding of what truly influences online self-disclosure. To address this gap, this study draws on the antecedent-privacy concern-outcome (APCO) framework in a one-stage meta-analytical structural equation modeling (one-stage MAS…

  • Understanding sustained participation in crowdsourcing platforms: The role of autonomy, temporal value, and hedonic value

    Open Access•Wei Wu, Qianwen Yang et al.•ARTICLE•Information Technology and People•2023

    Purpose Crowdsourcing platforms have emerged as an innovative way to generate ideas and solving problems. However, promoting sustained participation among crowdworkers is an ongoing challenge for most crowdsourcing platform providers. Drawing on self-determination theory, this study investigates the impacts of job autonomy on crowdworkers' sustained participation intention. Design/methodology/approach A survey of 212 crowdworkers from a leading c…

  • How omnichannel integration promotes customer word-of-mouth behaviors: The mediating roles of perceived personal preference fit and perceived social relatedness

    Open Access•Yang Li, Ran Tan et al.•ARTICLE•Information Technology and People•2023

    Purpose This study aims to investigate the psychological mediating mechanisms through which omnichannel integration affects customer word-of-mouth (WOM) behaviors in omnichannel retailing. Design/methodology/approach Guided by prior omnichannel retailing studies, the authors identify taxonomy of customer WOM behaviors with three archetypes, namely, face-to-face WOM, online store WOM, and social media WOM. Then, the authors draw on social exchange…

  • Role of motivations, self-regulations, and perceived competitive intensity in solvers’ continuance intention in crowdsourcing contests

    Wei Wu, Xiang Gong et al.•ARTICLE•Behaviour and Information…•2023

    Crowdsourcing contest has emerged as an innovative way to source ideas and solutions from online public in which only the solvers who make the winning bids receive payoffs. The uncertainty of the payoffs, arising from the competitive attribute of these contests, gives rise to the necessity to understand what sustains solvers’ participation. This study extends self-determination theory (SDT) to the crowdsourcing contest setting to investigate how …

  • Strengthened ocean-desert process in the North Pacific over the past two decades

    Open Access•Siyu Meng, Xun Gong et al.•ARTICLE•Environmental Research Letters•2021

    North Pacific ocean desert (NPOD) refers to the subtropical North Pacific Ocean of low chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentrations, as the largest ocean desert globally. Studies have suggested a development of NPOD over recent decades based on limited evidences from in-field measurements and yet elusive mechanism. In this study, we characterize intensity, area and position of the NPOD from year 1998 to 2018, and investigate its control by the coherent c…

  • The engagement–addiction dilemma: An empirical evaluation of mobile user interface and mobile game affordance

    Open Access•Qianwen Yang, Xiang Gong•ARTICLE•Internet Research•2021•Cited by: 12

    Purpose The engagement–addiction dilemma has been commonly observed in the information technology (IT) industry. However, this issue has received limited research attention in the information system (IS) discipline. Drawing on the stimulus–organism–response (SOR) framework, this study explores the engagement–addiction dilemma in the use of mobile games and highlights the impacts of game design features, namely, mobile user interface and mobile ga…

    Purpose Crowdworkers' sustained participation is critical to the success and sustainability of the online crowdsourcing community. However, this issue has not received adequate attention in the information systems research community. This study seeks to understand the formation of crowdworker sustained participation in the online crowdsourcing community. Design/methodology/approach The research model was empirically tested using online survey dat…

  • Dual mechanisms of reinforcement reward and habit in driving smartphone addiction: The role of smartphone features

    Open Access•Chongyang Chen, Kem Z K Zhang et al.•ARTICLE•Internet Research•2019•Cited by: 3•References: 7

    Purpose In the limited existing research on smartphone addiction, reinforcement reward and automatic habit have been identified as two distinct underlying mechanisms. The purpose of this paper is to better understand the interaction between these two mechanisms, as well as role of smartphone features in activating different formation mechanisms. Design/methodology/approach An online survey with 379 samples was conducted to empirically validate th…

  • Spillover effects from web to mobile payment services: The role of relevant schema and schematic fit

    Open Access•Kem Z K Zhang, Xiang Gong et al.•ARTICLE•Internet Research•2019•References: 9

    Purpose Drawing from the spillover effect literature, the purpose of this paper is to investigate the spillover effect in consumers’ web-mobile payment extension behavior. The authors figure out two categories of factors associated with the spillover effect: relevant schema and schematic fit. Cognitive trust and emotional trust in web payment are used to capture relevant schema, while perceived similarity and perceived business tie are proposed t…
