A Collective Action Inspired Motivation Framework for Crowdsourcing
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose a framework of motivations about why people participate in crowdsourcing without monetary incentives. The framework is based on the four pillars of crowdsourcing as well as the motivations referenced from collective action studies. We argue that crowdsourcing is not only about collective intelligence but is also similar to collective action, particularly when there is no monetary incentive. We discuss the commonalities between crowdsourcing and collective action. The framework provides a different research lens on crowdsourcing relative to the prevailing economic, psychology, and information system perspectives that form prior scholarship in this area.

متن کاملWhat "Crowdsourcing" Obscures: Exposing the Dynamics of Connected Crowd Work during Disaster
The aim of this paper is to demonstrate that the current understanding of crowdsourcing may not be broad enough to capture the diversity of crowd work during disasters, or specific enough to highlight the unique dynamics of information organizing by the crowd in that context. In making this argument, this paper first unpacks the crowdsourcing term, examining its roots in open source development...
متن کاملUnderstanding Continued Use of Crowdsourcing Systems: An Interpretive Study
Crowdsourcing as a model for distributed problem solving has been rapidly gaining in popularity. In investigating what drives the solvers to participate in crowdsourcing, the extant research has one-dimensionally only viewed the origins of motivation. While these studies have revealed that crowdsourcing systems’ use is driven by both intrinsic and extrinsic motivations, they fall short of expla...
