Exploring enterprises competition: From a perspective of massive recruitment texts mining

Extant research has made limited efforts to conduct competitive intelligence analysis based on recruitment texts. To fill the gap, this study proposes a method for deriving and analyzing competitive relationships, identifying competition paths, and calculating asymmetric competitiveness degrees, from the recruitment texts on e-recruiting websites. Specifically, this study developed a competitive evaluation index system for companies’ skill needs and resource base based on 53,171 job descriptions and 42,641 company profiles published by companies across 8 industries (including 35 industry segments) using automated text processing methods. Furthermore, in order to identify competitive paths and calculate the degree of asymmetric competitiveness, this study proposes a modified bipartite graph approach (i.e., MBGA) for competitive intelligence analysis of recruitment texts based on the competition evaluation index system. Experiments on a real-world dataset of the representative companies clearly validated the effectiveness of the method. Compared to the five state-of-the-art methods, MBGA performs better in disclosing the overall competition and is more accurate in terms of the error rating ratio (i.e., ERR) of the competition

Personalized Music Recommendation Based on Style Type

As Internet industry constantly develops and the computer penetration rate continues to grow, the number of online music platforms and music users has been able to increase year by year. With that comes more music choices, information overload has become a very prominent problem. Therefore, how to make users choose their favorite music more conveniently is one of the most challenging problems faced by online music recommendation systems. This paper bases on the existing recommendation system research and uses the collaborative filtering algorithm, proposes a music recommendation method from three perspectives: user attributes, music types and time migration. It is found that the online music recommendation from these three perspectives has a good effect, which can provide a reference for the construction of the current online music recommendation system and is also helpful to platform management practice

Exploring the Influential Factors of Consumers’ Willingness to Purchase Fresh Agricultural Products Online: A Meta-Analysis

What are the key influential factors of consumers’ willingness to purchase fresh agricultural products online? A large number of existing studies indicate that even the same factor has significant inconsistency or even opposite conclusion. Based on this contradiction, this study uses meta-analysis and uniform effect values to analyze the existing researches, and find a more unified conclusion. The results show the degree of self-health concern, the quality, safety and price, online shopping evaluation, the consumers\u27 perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and perceived risk in online shopping for fresh agricultural products all have a significant impact on consumers’ online shopping willingness

Helping Beginning Vloggers to Overcome Cold Start: the Perspective of Identity Construction

Beginning vloggers’ low enthusiasm for Vlog creation has garnered little consideration, even though a social media platform can highly improve user stickiness and user activity by engaging users to generate content. This paper investigates the effects of extrinsic and intrinsic motivations on Vlog creative behavior mediated by cognition and emotion based on social cognitive theory and self-discrepancy theory. The analysis of 342 questionnaire surveys shows that intrinsic motivation (social interaction and social cues presentation) positively affects identity construction and positive emotions. In contrast, extrinsic motivation (community incentives and social norms) only positively affects identity construction and does not significantly influence positive emotions. Identity construction and positive emotions further significantly affect the creative behavior of beginning vloggers. The results reveal the process of Vlog creative behavior and have important practical implications for enhancing the platform performance

Research on the Impact of Information Quality on Educational WeChat Official Account Users’ Continued Use Intention: Based on the ECM-IS Model

Along with the vigorous development of WeChat official accounts, the number of education WeChat official accounts is increasing day by day. Society’s emphasis on education issues extends to the WeChat Official Accounts and other social networking platforms. How to attract users and maintain the willingness of users to continue to use is an important issue for the operators of such public accounts to consider. Information is the main content of the educational WeChat official account, and the evaluation of its quality will directly affect the perception of the educational WeChat official account and then affect the user\u27s willingness to use it. Therefore, based on the perspective of information quality and the ECM-IS model as the research model, this paper subdivides information quality into five dimensions, including comprehensiveness, timeliness, accuracy, relevance, and perceived interestingness, and establishes a theoretical model of the influence of educational WeChat public account information quality on college students\u27 willingness to continue using. This study will have a certain reference value for the education of WeChat operators\u27 practical operation and user stickiness

Influence of Media Richness of E-WOM on Consumers\u27 Mental Imagery and Attitudes

E-WOM has become a hot research topic. Based on the theory of media richness, this paper divides online reviews into three types according to the degree of e-WOM richness from low to high - text , text + image and text + image + video . From the perspective of mental imagery, this paper explores the consumer attitudes of these three kinds of reviews with different richness. The Experimental data analysis shows that compared with text reviews, text + image reviews have more significant impact on consumers\u27 metal imagery and attitudes; as a form of high richness e-WOM, text + image + video has the most significant impact on consumers\u27 metal imagery and attitudes. This discovery points out several meaningful directions for the further study from the perspective of media richness

Exploring Factors Influencing Showrooming Behavior in Multi-Channel Shopping: A Cognitive Appraisal Theory Perspective

Multi-channel shopping keeping consumers from changing retailers during the channel conversion process has become an important issue. Showrooming, one of the increasingly popular form of multi-channel behavior, brings different influences to retailers. This paper focuses on how to keep consumers loyal to retailer of showrooming behavior during the channel conversion process, and explore its influencing factors from the perspective of cognitive appraisal theory. Three hundred and ten questionnaires were collected to conduct empirical analysis by structural equation modeling (SEM). The empirical research results show that information availability, price comparison, and after sales service positively affect perceived fluency and perceived value, but interaction service has no significant effect on perceived fluency and perceived value, and that perceived value and perceived fluency further promote the appearance of showrooming behavior. The research results improve the existing showrooming research system, and provide suggestions for retailers on how to improve the channel characteristics to promote positive showrooming
