5 computing and user reviews Comparing reviews written using mobile devices with those written on traditional desktop computers How do they differ in content? How do they differ in influence? What mechanisms drive differences? 5

6 Tension Physical Time pressure and tradeoffs between physical and cognitive effort on mobile devices drive important differences in content, potentially affecting the usefulness of the content (Lurie et al. 2009) Temporal Reviews written during or immediately after service experiences should be less extreme and less biased than retrospective reviews. Yet, real-time reviews may be impulsive and lack reflection, limiting their usefulness (Novemsky and Ratner 2003) 6

You can't be all things to all people, so you need to learn to find out who really matters to your success.

Negative binomial regression on the number of users who like the review. 48,610 observations of 4,499 users with at least one mobile and one desktop review (additional controls for age, time, intercept) Users are less influenced by mobile reviews than by desktop reviews Model 0 Model 1 Model 2 Score: dislike 0.27*** 0.18*** 0.20*** Score: like Score: really like 0.26*** 0.24*** 0.22*** -0.44*** -0.27*** Word count (x1000) 4.27*** 3.73*** Complexity (ARI x 100) * Past (std) Social (std) 0.03** 0.02* Positive emotions (std) -0.04*** Negative emotions (std) Anger (std) -0.03* -0.03* Swearing (std) Cognitive (std) * Perceptive (std) -0.04*** -0.04** 26

27 How do mobile reviews differ in Content Differences Shorter, no less complex More positive emotion Closer to real-time Surprisingly not negative, angry Less cognitive (slightly), more affective More likely to be negative Influence Less likely to influence users (even after controlling for all things mobile i.e., shorter length, etc.) Why? Physical Temporal Expect bias? Heuristic for content differences? Ongoing research to better understand mechanisms Next steps? Additional data collection Alternative models: user heterogeneity Additional data collection Alternative models: user heterogeneity, predictive 27

28 What mechanisms drive differences? Review characteristics (page placement?) Endogenous choice of real-time (only if extreme?) Use of likes as measure of influence (same as behavior?) Next step (experiment) Controlled mapping of mobile to real-time Measure influence Both scenarios and field 28

29 Scenario-based experiment Imagine that you are picking a restaurant for tonight. 2 x 2 design: mobile versus desktop; positive versus negative Review One great experience sure can make one addicted for a lifetime. I have eaten here only once and will definitely be back. Yes I would like to go back even knowing that there are many other great places in the city. The best way I can sum up the food is inspired, and in such a competitive market this inspiration is worth a second trip. I was at Joe's with a group of four and every single dish we ordered was special. But the food alone is not what gets this place the outstanding five stars. What does then? Well when you mix great food with an incredibly attentive waiter you end up with a remarkably wonderful experience. Our waiter was extremely friendly, quick, and did not make any mistakes with the orders. The icing on the cake was when we got to sample the house desserts. The waiter knew that it was our first time here and he took extra steps in making sure we had a wonderful experience. For the first time in my life I went to the manager and praised the service. I told him about our experience and what a good job our waiter did. The manager was also helpful and asked if there is anything he could do to further improve my experience. All in all it was one of the best experiences I have had at any restaurant." Ratings of: credibility, valence, similarity, influence, timing 29
