Drawing on the persuasive systems design model, we conducted an experiment with 33,848 actual customers of an international telecom company. In a real-life setting, we compared the effectiveness of three persuasion strategies (rational, emotional, and social) tested in three marketing channels (short message service, social media advertising, and mobile application), evaluating their effect on influencing customers to purchase international mobile phone credits. Results suggest that companies should send rational messages when using short form advertising messages regardless of the channel to achieve higher response rates. Findings further show that certain customer characteristics are predictive of positive responses and differ by channel but not by message type. Findings from crowdsourced evaluations also indicate that people noticeably disagree on what persuasive strategy was applied to these short messages, which might indicate that consumers are not well-equipped to identify persuasive strategies or that what advertisers see as a ‘pure’ strategy actually involves elements from multiple strategies as interpreted by consumers. The results have implications for the theoretical understanding of persuasive short form commercial messaging in multichannel marketing and practical insights for advertising within limited amount of space and attention afforded by many digital channels.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":72769,"journal":{"name":"Data and information management","volume":"6 1","pages":"Article 100008"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2543925122001061/pdfft?md5=0f74602a782d71e732f7a418e12c68ea&pid=1-s2.0-S2543925122001061-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"137284328","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The advent of the “fourth industrial revolution” in Vietnam has brought about advances in digitization. While this transition is crucial in achieving national sustainable development goals, Vietnam remains at a disadvantage on a global scale due to country-specific challenges in digitization that include lack of human, technical, and financial resources. These challenges are hindering the pace and quality of the digitization process and impeding the ability of cultural professionals to utilize digital platforms. In addition, the global digital divide is having impacts on access, inclusion, and representation. This shows that the challenges faced in the digitization process are not only about access to technology but also about much more deep-seated issues related to culture, history, and social inequalities. This is especially pertinent during the Covid-19 pandemic, which has highlighted inequalities in access and inclusion. The research draws on 20 semi-structured interviews with cultural professionals across Hanoi. The interviews were carried out during the Covid-19 pandemic and addressed its impact on digitization projects and the use of digital technologies for work. The findings show how geopolitical and socioeconomic factors can suppress the ability to adopt new digital technologies, which is hindering the ability to exploit the opportunities of digitization. Yet, the Covid-19 pandemic has allowed more time to focus on digitization projects and to utilize digital tools and platforms, especially with free open-source software or platforms such as Facebook. This has become one route toward exploiting the opportunities of digitization for increased exposure, creation of digital resources, and rebalancing the discourse and amount of content circulating online regarding Vietnamese art and culture.","PeriodicalId":72769,"journal":{"name":"Data and information management","volume":"0 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42156131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we examine how technostress affects knowledge hiding. Drawing from the energy-consuming characteristic of technostress and prior research on how technostress affects ICT users, this article builds and tests a model that takes work exhaustion as a mediator and explores the moderating role of job autonomy. To test our conceptual model, we examined the responses to a survey questionnaire submitted by 287 ICT users from multiple organizations. Using structural equation modeling, we found that technostress increases employees’ knowledge hiding behavior, and work exhaustion partially mediates technostress and knowledge hiding, while job autonomy only moderates the relationship between technostress and work exhaustion when the fourth factor of technostress, viz., techno-insecurity, is excluded. We also discuss future research directions and implications of the results.","PeriodicalId":72769,"journal":{"name":"Data and information management","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44757138","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work is an investigative study of digital maintenance activities for sustainable development of the digital publications and intellectual outputs of universities in Bangladesh. The researchers investigated the university and university website and found that only 11% university libraries were active in preserving their digital resources while 89% of university libraries were either in the dark or less reluctant to adopt the system. Researchers realized that due to lack of proper guidelines and an ideal model plan, most of the university libraries were far behind in adopting a repository system for safeguarding their intellectual outputs. Hence this study describes a model plan for the university libraries of Bangladesh to create a sustainable preservation system easily and effectively. The model plan in this study was based on observation and review of the literature in the concerned field.

Researchers reckon that with the expertise acquired from conventional cataloging, classification, and indexing coupled with that attained in the development, along with the maintenance of institutional repositories, it is only rational that libraries take a dominant and central role in research data management and further their capacity as curators. Accordingly, University libraries are expected to assemble capabilities, to manage and provide research data for sharing and reusing efficiently. This study examined research librarians' experiences of RDM activities at the UON Library to recommend measures to enhance managing, sharing and reusing research data. The study was informed by the DCC Curation lifecycle model and the Community Capability Model Framework (CCMF) that enabled the Investigator to purposively capture qualitative data from a sample of 5 research librarians at the UON Library. The data was analysed thematically to generate themes that enabled the Investigator to address the research problem. Though the UON Library had policies on research data, quality assurance and intellectual property, study findings evidenced no explicit policies to guide each stage of data curation and capabilities. There were also inadequacies in skills and training capability, technological infrastructure and collaborative partnerships. Overall, RDM faced challenges in all the examined capabilities. These challenges limited the managing, sharing, and reusing of research data. The study recommends developing an RDM unit within the UON Library to oversee the implementation of RDM activities by assembling all the needed capabilities (policy guidelines, skills and training, technological infrastructure and collaborative partnerships) to support data curation activities and enable efficient managing, sharing and reusing research data.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":72769,"journal":{"name":"Data and information management","volume":"5 4","pages":"Pages 412-424"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2543925122000110/pdfft?md5=8c6a5129bde5b2b8eba45ac716ddeec6&pid=1-s2.0-S2543925122000110-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45662567","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
