Abstract
This article takes crowdsourcing as the research background, collects secondary data from the Yipin Freelancer website, constructs panel data of “respondent–date,” and uses the research framework of the elaboration likelihood model (ELM) to study the key factors influencing the bid-winning probability of respondents. The study found that for the central path, there is a nonlinear inverted U-shaped relationship between the respondents' success experience and skill diversity and the bid-winning probability. For the peripheral path of task settings, the study found that a larger task bonus, more bonus recipients, and longer task deadlines are beneficial for respondents to win bids successfully. Finally, this article discusses the theoretical and practical significance of the research.
期刊介绍:
Managerial and Decision Economics will publish articles applying economic reasoning to managerial decision-making and management strategy.Management strategy concerns practical decisions that managers face about how to compete, how to succeed, and how to organize to achieve their goals. Economic thinking and analysis provides a critical foundation for strategic decision-making across a variety of dimensions. For example, economic insights may help in determining which activities to outsource and which to perfom internally. They can help unravel questions regarding what drives performance differences among firms and what allows these differences to persist. They can contribute to an appreciation of how industries, organizations, and capabilities evolve.
