- Title: How do online consumers review negatively?
- Authors: Menghan Sun, Jichang Zhao
- Abstract summary: Using 1, 450, 000 negative reviews from JD.com, the largest B2C platform in China, the behavioral patterns from temporal, perceptional and emotional perspectives are explored.
Consumers from lower levels express more intensive negative feelings, especially on product pricing and seller attitudes.
The value of negative reviews from higher-level consumers is unexpectedly highlighted because of less emotionalization and less biased narration.

- Abstract: Negative reviews on e-commerce platforms, mainly in the form of texts, are
posted by online consumers to express complaints about unsatisfactory
experiences, providing a proxy of big data for sellers to consider
improvements. However, the exact knowledge that lies beyond the negative
reviewing still remains unknown. Aimed at a systemic understanding of how
online consumers post negative reviews, using 1, 450, 000 negative reviews from
JD.com, the largest B2C platform in China, the behavioral patterns from
temporal, perceptional and emotional perspectives are comprehensively explored
in the present study. Massive consumers behind these reviews across four
sectors in the most recent 10 years are further split into five levels to
reveal group discriminations at a fine resolution. Circadian rhythms of
negative reviewing after making purchases were found, and the periodic
intervals suggest stable habits in online consumption and that consumers tend
to negatively review at the same hour of the purchase. Consumers from lower
levels express more intensive negative feelings, especially on product pricing
and seller attitudes, while those from upper levels demonstrate a stronger
momentum of negative emotion. The value of negative reviews from higher-level
consumers is thus unexpectedly highlighted because of less emotionalization and
less biased narration, while the longer-lasting characteristic of these
consumers' negative responses also stresses the need for more attention from
sellers. Our results shed light on implementing distinguished proactive
strategies in different buyer groups to help mitigate the negative impact due
to negative reviews.

This paper presents the first comprehensive study to uncover how and when negative prompts take effect.
Our empirical analysis identifies two primary behaviors of negative prompts.
Negative prompts can facilitate object inpainting with minimal alterations to the background via a simple adaptive algorithm.

In ad-hoc retrieval, evaluation relies heavily on user actions, including implicit feedback.
The role of user feedback in annotators' assessment of turns in a conversational perception has been little studied.
We focus on how the evaluation of task-oriented dialogue systems ( TDSs) is affected by considering user feedback, explicit or implicit, as provided through the follow-up utterance of a turn being evaluated.

Detection [50.779498955162644]
Companies may hire fraudster groups to write fake reviews to either demote competitors or promote their own businesses.
To detect such groups, a common model is to represent fraudster groups' static networks.
We propose to first capitalize on the effectiveness of the HIN-RNN in both reviewers' representation learning.

We analyze two social media that enforced opposite moderation methods, Twitter and Gab, to assess the interplay between news consumption and content regulation.
Our results show that the presence of moderation pursued by Twitter produces a significant reduction of questionable content.
The lack of clear regulation on Gab results in the tendency of the user to engage with both types of content, showing a slight preference for the questionable ones which may account for a dissing/endorsement behavior.

The aim of this study is to provide the most helpful negative reviews under a certain product attribute for online sellers and producers.
It is surprisingly found that positive emotions are more helpful rather than negative emotions in ranking negative reviews.
The presented ranking method could provide e-commerce practitioners with an efficient and effective way to leverage negative reviews from online consumers.
