Objective vs. Online Ratings: Are Low Correlations Unexpected and Does It Matter? A Commentary on de Langhe, Fernbach, and Lichtenstein
The major point of the article by de Langhe, Fernbach, and Lichtenstein (2016, in this issue) is that objective ratings produced by Consumer Reports and online consumer ratings have a low correlation. We argue in this comment that this result is unsurprising due to some unresolved statistical issues, heterogeneity in terms of consumers’ use of ratings and of the underlying consumer population and contexts, dynamics in the ratings system, and the …
Testing Behavioral Hypotheses Using an Integrated Model of Grocery Store Shopping Path and Purchase Behavior
We examine three sets of established behavioral hypotheses about consumers' in-store behavior using field data on grocery store shopping paths and purchases. Our results provide field evidence for the following empirical regularities. First, as consumers spend more time in the store, they become more purposeful-they are less likely to spend time on exploration and more likely to shop/buy. Second, consistent with "licensing" behavior, after purcha…
Count Models Based on Weibull Interarrival Times
The widespread popularity and use of both the Poisson and the negative binomial models for count data arise, in part, from their derivation as the number of arrivals in a given time period assuming exponentially distributed interarrival times (without and with heterogeneity in the underlying base rates, respectively). However, with that clean theory come some limitations including limited flexibility in the assumed underlying arrival rate distrib…
Implicit Coalitions in a Generalized Prisoner's Dilemma
The presence of a third party can affect attempts by two players to cooperate in a three-player, continuous-alternative, repeated Prisoner's Dilemma-like game. If the third player is uncooperative, two players may find it advantageous to cooperate implicitly, at a level somewhere between full (i.e., three-way) cooperation and full defection. We examine this phenomenon of implicit coalitions via two sequential computer tournaments (38 algorithms i…
