摘要
Drawing on the motivation crowding theory, we propose a novel framework concerning the moderating effects of customer-initiated reviews and merchant-initiated replies on the relationship between negative online reviews and online sales performance. Using 14,096 online reviews collected from , we found that the detrimental effect of negative online reviews will be mitigated with a greater level of customer-initiated reviews and a medium level of merchant-initiated replies. This study enhances the current understanding of the dyadic interaction between online customers and offline merchants, thereby suggesting the crowding-in and crowding-out effects of the merchant online replies toward negative online reviews.
