The development of mobile social networking service (SNS) triggers the growth of social commerce industry. Customers rely considerably on electronic word of mouth (eWOM) to make purchasing decisions. Thus, SNS is an important commercial platform that offers attractive opportunities and challenges to firms. This study sheds light on the role of SNS as a social commerce platform by focusing on WeChat, the most popular SNS in China. This study identifies three different types of trust based on SNS that customers perceive in the context of social commerce. These types of trust are contents trust, source trust, and platform trust. This study suggests the antecedents and consequences of each trust. Our results prove that eWOM intention relies on contents trust and source trust, whereas purchase intention depends on contents trust, source trust, and platform trust. This study also finds that contents trust is positively influenced by source trust and platform trust. Finally, the result verifies the key antecedents of each trust, namely, vividness and timeliness for contents trust, competence, benevolence, and integrity for source trust, and instrumental need and social need for platform trust. The discussion and implications on the findings are provided.

The importance of communities of practice(CoP) as an organizational informal unit for fostering knowledge transfer and sharing gains a lot of attention from KM researchers and practitioners. Since most of CoPs are formulated online these days, the credibility or trustworthiness of knowledge contents circulated within a certain CoP should be considered thoroughly for them to be fully utilized safely. Here comes the need for an appropriate trust measuring methodology to determine the true value of knowledge given by unknown people through an online channel. In this paper, an improved trust measuring method is proposed using new trust variables such as level of degrees derived from the relationships among community users. In addition, activeness, relevance, and usefulness of the knowledge contents themselves, which are calculated automatically using a text categorization technique, are also used for trust measurement. The proposed framework incorporates fuzzy set and calculation concepts to help build trust matrices and models, which are used to measure the level of trust involved in specific knowledge artifacts concerned.

Purpose: Delivery food orders are on the rise due to the COVID 19 pandemic. Many customers are ordering food through delivery apps rather than visiting restaurants to eat out. Delivery application platforms are growing due to the development of O2O. Most of the people who provide gig worker for delivery applications are rider. Rider provides labor on their own terms and have more work flexibility and autonomy than ordinary workers. Trust can be transferred from a well-known entity to an unknown entity. From the customer's point of view of using the delivery application, trust can be seen through the third-party trust of the delivery application platform-rider-customer. Therefore, this study intends to investigate the effect on delivery application trust and rider trust through the well-known characteristics of delivery applications. Research design, data, and methodology: This study was conducted on Korean consumers over 20 years of age who have ordered food through a delivery application for the past month. After educating 5 investigators about the purpose of this study, 60 copies of the survey were conducted per person. During the investigation period, from September 2 to September 26, 2021, 322 copies were collected over 25 days. Among the collected questionnaires, 37 were excluded from insincere or partially unanswered, and 285 were used for analysis. In addition, the collected data were analyzed using SPSS 25.0 and AMOS 25.0. Result: As a result of the study, convenience, price, and variety of restaurants were found to have a significant positive (+) effect on app trust, but design did not have a significant effect on app trust. Also, it was found that convenience had a significant positive (+) effect on trust in rider, but design, price, and variety of restaurants did not have a significant effect. App trust was found to have a significant positive (+) effect on rider trust and intention to use, and it was found to have a significant positive (+) effect on rider trust and intention to use. Conclusions: First, this study established a structural framework between delivery application characteristics-delivery-app trust-rider trust-intention to use. Second, in this study, it was found that customer trust in well-known delivery applications was transferred to less-known rider trust. Third, the delivery application should increase the convenience of use. Fourth, delivery application should set the delivery fee appropriately. Fifth, delivery application must continuously train the rider.

Trust for the data created, processed and transferred on e-Science environments can be estimated with provenance. The information to form provenance, which says how the data was created and reached its current state, increases as data evolves. It is a heavy burden to trace and verify the massive provenance in order to trust data. On the other hand, it is another issue how to trust the verification of data with provenance. This paper proposes a fast and exact verification of inter-domain data transfer and data origin for e-Science environment based on PKI. The verification, which is called two-way verification, cuts down the tracking overhead of the data along the causality presented on Open Provenance Model with the domain specialty of e-Science environment supported by Grid Security Infrastructure (GSI). The proposed scheme is easy-applicable without an extra infrastructure, scalable irrespective of the number of provenance records, transparent and secure with cryptography as well as low-overhead.

본 연구에서는 기존에 구축되었던 오프라인뱅킹에서의 신뢰가 새로운 스마트뱅킹 서비스 신뢰에 어느 정도 영향을 미치는가를 규명하였다. 이를 위해 스마트뱅킹 신뢰의 영향요인으로 오프라인뱅킹의 신뢰, 스마트뱅킹의 시스템 품질과 정보품질을 비교연구하였다. 실증연구를 위해 스마트뱅킹 서비스 이용자를 대상으로 186부의 설문지를 회수하였고, 자료분석은 Smart-PLS 2.0을 이용하였다. 분석결과, 오프라인뱅킹 신뢰가 스마트뱅킹 신뢰에 미치는 영향이 유의하게 나타나, 핀테크 서비스에서 신뢰전이가 존재함을 검증하였다. 그리고 이러한 오프라인뱅킹 신뢰가 스마트뱅킹 신뢰에 미치는 영향력은 스마트뱅킹 자체의 특성보다 낮은 것을 입증하였다. 본 연구의 의의는 학술적 측면과 산업적 측면에서 살펴볼 수 있다. 먼저, 학술적 측면에서의 의의이다. 지금까지의 뱅킹관련 연구들은 오프라인뱅킹이나 스마트뱅킹 어느 한 측면에 초점을 맞추어 연구를 수행하였다. 이에 비해 본 연구에서는 오프라인뱅킹의 특성이 스마트뱅킹 특성에 어떻게 영향을 미치는가하는 신뢰전이를 검증했다는 점에서 의의가 있다. 다음으로, 산업적 측면에서의 의의이다. 본 연구에서 시중은행의 오프라인뱅킹 특성이 새로운 스마트뱅킹 서비스의 신뢰에 영향을 준다는 것을 보여주었다. 이것은 신흥 핀테크 업체가 시중 은행에 비해 신뢰구축의 경쟁에서 유리하지 않다는 것을 의미한다. 신흥 핀테크 업체들은 시중은행과 달리 모바일, 소셜, 클라우드, 빅데이터 등은 물론, 현실화되고 있는 사물인터넷, 가상현실 등의 기술로 무장하여 고객의 편의성을 혁신적으로 개선하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 강점만으로는 금융거래에 필요한 충분한 신뢰를 형성할 수 있다고 보장할 수는 없다는 것이다. 이미 신뢰관계에 있는 주거래 은행을 고객들이 잘 바꾸지 않는 관성이 있기 때문이다. 따라서 신흥 핀테크 업체들은 상대적으로 고객접점에 우위에 있는 소셜서비스와 같은 온라인 상호작용의 강점과 다양한 인터넷 서비스와의 연계성을 반영한 파괴적인 부가가치 창출을 위해 노력해야하고, 특히 새로운 서비스에 저항이 낮은 젊은층을 중심으로 한 서비스신뢰 구축을 위해 노력해야 할 것이다.

Fraudulence, cheating, and deception can occur in the commercial real estate (CRE) industry, besides the difficulty in searching for and transferring properties while ensuring the operation is processed through an authoritative source in a trusted manner. Nowadays, real estate transactions use neutral third parties to sell land. Indeed, properties can be sold by the owners or third parties multiple times or without a proper deed. Moreover, third parties request a large amount of money to mediate between the seller and buyer. Methods: We propose a new framework that uses a private blockchain network and predefined BPMN instances to enable the fast and easy recording of deeds and their proprietary transfer management controlled by the government. The blockchain allows for multiple verifications of transactions by permitted parties called peers. It promotes transparency, privacy, trust, and commercial competition. Results: We demonstrated the easy adoption of blockchain for land registration and transfer. The paper presents a prototype of the implemented product that follows the proposed framework. Conclusion: The use of Blockchain-based solutions to resolve the current land registration and transfer issues is promising and will contribute to smart cities and digital governance.

Purpose - This study examines the effects of the influence strategies on sales representative and headquarter trust, and investigates how sales representative trust plays a mediating role in the relationship between influence strategies and headquarter trust. For these purposes, a structural model which consists of several constructs was developed. In this model, influence strategies that consist of relational influence strategies (information exchange, recommend, promise) and mandatory influence strategies (legal plea, request, threat) were proposed to affect the sales representative trust and in turn, increase the headquarter trust. Thus, this study proposed that sale representative trust plays a core mediating role in the relationship between relational and mandatory influence strategies and headquarter trust in B2B food materials distribution context. Research design, data, and methodology - For these purposes, the authors collected the data from 208 B2B specialized complex agents. We used the 2,200 B2B specialized complex agents which trade with CJ, Ottogi, and Daesang firms and supply food materials to restaurant, school cafeteria, supermarket and traditional market as a sample frame. Once we identified 330 B2B specialized complex agent owners, CEOs, and/or Directors who had agreed to participate in this study, we dropped off a questionnaire at each B2B specialized complex agent and explained the purpose of this study. The survey was conducted from October 1, 2015 to December 15, 2015. A total of 230 questionnaires were collected. Of these collected questionnaires, 28 questionnaires excluded since they had not been fully completed. The data were analyzed using frequency test, reliability test, measurement model analysis, and structural equation modeling with SPSS and SmartPLS 2. Results - First, information exchange, recommendation, and promise of relational influence strategies had positive effects on sales representative trust. The threat of mandatory influence strategies had a negative effect on sales representative trust, but legal plea and request did not have a significant effect on sales representative trust. Second, information exchange and recommendation of relational influence strategies had positive effects on headquarter trust, but promise did not. Also, legal plea, request, and threat of mandatory influence strategies did not have a significant effect on headquarter trust. Third, this findings show that sales representative trust plays a partial mediator between information exchange and headquarter trust, and threat and headquarter trust, and a full mediator between promise and headquarter trust, and recommendation and headquarter trust. Conclusions - The aim of this study was to examine the effects how diverse dimensions of relational and mandatory influence strategies relate to sales representative trust and headquarter trust. To do so, we integrated the influence strategies and the trust transfer theory to hypothesize that various influence strategies increase sales representative and headquarter trust. The findings of this study suggest that headquarter firms should establish and enforce proper influence strategies guidelines to make clear what proper actions sales representatives should implement in relationship with B2B specialized complex agents. Also, relational and mandatory influence strategies must be regarded as a long-term and ongoing strategy that eventually build a long-term orientation with B2B specialized complex agents and guarantee a company's sustainable growth and success.
