고객들은 조작된 온라인 리뷰가 범람하는 가운데 진정성과 가치를 지닌 리뷰를 보고자한다. 귀인 이론(Attribution theory)의 관점에서, 사람들은 리뷰어의 과거 평가 이력을 바탕으로 리뷰가 진정성 있는지를 판단하는 경향이 있다. 이러한 배경에서 본 연구의 목적은 리뷰어의 과거 평점 이력이 조작된 리뷰로 인식하는 것에 어떠한 영향을 미치며, 최종적으로 리뷰 유용성이 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 알아보는 것이다. 제안된 가설을 검증하기 위해 2차 데이터 분석(연구1)과 실험(연구2)을 수행했으며, 두 연구는 일관된 결과를 보여준다. 연구 1은 리뷰어의 과거 평가 이력이 리뷰 유용성에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 귀인이론에 근거하면, 사람들은 리뷰를 다른 목적을 가지고 작성되었다고 인식할 경우에 리뷰가 조작되었다고 생각하고, 그 리뷰가 물건이나 서비스의 진정한 가치를 평가하지 않았다고 간주한다. 따라서 해당 리뷰는 유용성이 낮게 평가되는 경향이 있다. 2차 데이터를 분석하기 위해 우리는 Python을 이용한 웹 스크레이퍼를 개발하여 TripAdvisor(TripAdvisor.com)에서 호텔 정보, 리뷰, 리뷰 정보 등의 연구 데이터를 수집하였다. 수집한 890명 리뷰어에 대한 100,621개의 리뷰를 분석하기 위해 음이항 회귀 분석을 수행하였다. 분석 결과, 평균 평점을 낮게 주는 리뷰어의 경우에 리뷰 유용성에 유의미한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 사람들은 극단적인 평점을 거의 주지 않는 리뷰어가 작성한 리뷰가 더 도움이 된다고 평가했다. 연구 2는 리뷰어의 과거 평점 이력을 기준으로 리뷰가 조작되었다고 평가하는 사람들의 인식 프로세스를 실험하였다. 실험 결과, 사람들은 리뷰어의 과거 평점 이력이 평균적으로 평점을 낮게 주는 경우에는 리뷰가 의심스럽다고 판단하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 사람들은 리뷰어가 대부분 극단적인 평점을 주는 이력이 있다면 해당 리뷰어가 작성한 리뷰가 의심스럽다고 판단하는 것으로 나타났다. 연구2는 사람들이 리뷰어의 과거 평점 이력을 바탕으로 리뷰가 조작되었는지 또는 리뷰가 도움이 되는지 판단하는 경향이 있음을 보여준다. 본 연구는 귀인이론을 바탕으로 리뷰어의 과거 평점 이력이 리뷰 조작성에 대한 인식과 리뷰 유용성에 미치는 영향을 분석하여, 해당 연구분야에 새로운 관점을 추가한 기여점이 있다.

As the influence of online reviews on consumer decision-making increases, concerns about review manipulation are also increasing. Fake reviews or review manipulations are emerging as an important problem by posting untrue reviews in order to increase sales volume, causing the consumer's reverse choice, and acting at a high cost to the society as a whole. Most of the related prior studies have focused on predicting review manipulation through data mining methods, and research from a consumer perspective is insufficient. However, since the possibility of manipulation of reviews perceived by consumers can affect the usefulness of reviews, it can provide important implications for online word-of-mouth management regardless of whether it is false or not. Therefore, in this study, we analyzed whether there is a difference between the review evaluated by the consumer as being manipulated and the general review, and verified whether the manipulated review negatively affects the review usefulness. For empirical analysis, 34,711 online book reviews on the LibraryThing website were analyzed using multilevel logistic regression analysis and Poisson regression analysis. As a result of the analysis, it was found that there were differences in product level, reviewer level, and review level factors between reviews that consumers perceived as being manipulated and reviews that were not. In addition, manipulated reviews have been shown to negatively affect review usefulness.

The study analyzes reviews of hardware products, customer service products, and products that take the form of a convergence of hardware and cloud services in ICT using text mining. We derive keywords of each review and find the differentiation of words that are used to derive topics. A cluster analysis is performed to categorize reviews into their respective clusters. Through this study, we observed which keywords are most often used for each product type and found topics that express the characteristics of products and services using topic modeling. We derived keywords such as "professional" and "technician" which are topics that suggest the excellence of the service provider in the review of service products. Further, we identified adjectives with positive connotations such as "favorite", "fine", "fun", "nice", "smart", "unlimited", and "useful" from Amazon Eco review, an integrated product and service. Using the cluster analysis, the entire review was clustered into three groups, and three product type reviews exclusively resulted in belonging to each different cluster. The study analyzed the differences whereby consumer needs are expressed differently in reviews depending on the type of product and suggested that it is necessary to differentiate product planning and marketing promotion according to the product type in practice.

Ratings and reviews, despite their growing influence on restaurants' sales and reputation, entail a few limitations due to the burgeoning of reviews and inaccuracies in rating systems. This study explores the texts in reviews and ratings of a delivery application and discovers ways to elevate review credibility and usefulness. Through a text mining method, we concluded that the delivery application 'Yogiyo' has (1) a five-star oriented rating dispersion, (2) a strong positive correlation between rating factors (taste, quantity, and delivery) and (3) distinct part of speech and morpheme proportions depending on review polarity. We created a chicken-specialized negative word dictionary under four main topics and 20 sub-topic classifications after extracting a total of 367 negative words. We provide insights on how the research on delivery app reviews should progress, centered on fried chicken reviews.

For the success of an online retail market, it is important to allow consumers to get more helpful reviews by figuring out the factors determining the helpfulness of online reviews. On the basis of elaboration likelihood model, this study analyzes which factors determine the helpfulness of reviews and how the factors affecting the helpfulness of an online consumer review differ for product price. For this study, 75,226 online consumer reviews were collected from Amazon.com. Furthermore, additional information on review messages was also gathered by carrying out a content analysis on the review messages. This study shows that both of peripheral cues such as review rating and reviewer's credibility and central cues such as word count of review message and the proportion of negative words influence the helpfulness of review. In addition, the result of this study reveals that each consumer focuses on different information sources of reviews depending on the product price.

As review text contains the experience and opinions of the customers, analyzing review text helps to understand the subject. Existing studies either only used sentiment analysis on online restaurant reviews to identify the customers' assessment on different features of the restaurant or network analysis to figure out the customers' preference. In this study, we conducted both sentiment analysis and network analysis on the review text of the restaurants with high star ratings and those with low star ratings. We compared the review text of the two groups to distinguish the difference of the two and identify what makes great restaurants great.

Consumers of web novels read online reviews in order to decrease uncertainty when purchasing a web novel. This study examines the types of messages (factual or evaluative) that consumers find more useful and verifies the moderating effect of individual analytical decision-making style levels on differences in usefulness evaluation. Based on the tendency to acquire objective information, the usefulness of factual online reviews was expected to be higher in the context of buying experience goods, such as a web novel. Levels of analytical decision-making styles, which were classified based on individual perception, are also expected to affect the usefulness evaluation of reviews. Experiments 1 and 2 were repeatedly conducted to examine whether consumers think factual reviews are more useful than evaluative reviews. In particular, Experiment 2 was conducted to simulate the circumstance of selecting a romance web novel and demonstrated that reviews have a significant effect on messages and decision-making styles. The interaction effect between analytical decision-making style levels and review message types was also confirmed in Experiment 2. The results of this study can help researchers and marketers comprehend the behavioral patterns of web novel readers when evaluating reviews and consuming experience goods.

Online reviews written by tourists provide important information for the management and operation of the tourism industry. The star rating of online reviews is a simple quantitative evaluation of a product or service, but it is difficult to reflect the sincere attitude of tourists. There is also an issue; the star rating and review content are not matched. In this study, a star rating prediction model based on online review content was proposed to solve the discrepancy problem. We compared the differences in star ratings and sentiment by continent through sentiment analysis on tourist attractions and hotels written by foreign tourists who visited Korea. Variables were selected through TF-IDF vectorization and sentiment analysis results. Logit, artificial neural network, and SVM(Support Vector Machine) were used for the classification model, and artificial neural network and SVR(Support Vector regression) were applied for the rating prediction model. The online review rating prediction model proposed in this study could solve inconsistency problems and also could be applied even if when there is no star rating.
