AMCIS 2020: NEW FRONTIERS IN DIGITAL CONVERGENCE Salt Lake City, Utah August 12-16, 2020

Minitrack: Cross-Cultural Perspective on User Generated Content Track: Culture in Information Systems (SIG Culture)

https://amcis2020.aisconferences.org/track-descriptions/#toggle-id-6

Deadline for Submissions: Friday, February 28, 2020, 5:00 pm MST (7:00 pm EST)

Description: The diversity of consumers' cultural background is enriching the utility of user-generated content (UGC). While some studies report cross-cultural differences in ethnic restaurant reviews, we are still in the early stage of understanding how cross-cultural influences are transpiring on the broader spectrum of UGC ranging from online consumer reviews to social media posts. The UGC has been widely utilized in cross-cultural contexts with the globalization of online portals. Empirical investigations are pressingly needed to explore innovative methods and frameworks on such topics as textual characteristics of UGC by the profiles of consumers; sentiment analyses of UGC by national cultures; cross-cultural analyses of UGC for subjective goods such as hospitality products and services; and the diversity of UGC reactions by consumers' cultural background. Finally, we encourage submissions that apply a cross-disciplinary perspective beyond the existing national culture frameworks, such as Ho fstede's.
