  • Consumers often hesitate to perform a transaction online because of the impersonal nature of online settings and information asymmetry that makes it almost impossible to evaluate product quality before purchase.

    “Considering the impersonal nature of online settings, and the information asymmetry that almost makes it impossible to evaluate the product quality before purchase [6], consumers often hesitate to perform a transaction online [58].”
  • The potential risks associated with online purchases, such as information asymmetry between buyers and sellers and the impersonal nature of the online environment, pose threats to consumers, so merchants need to acquire trust from consumers.

    “The potential risks associated with online purchases, such as information asymmetry between buyers and sellers, and the impersonal nature of the online environment pose threats to the consumers and also to the buyers, and in this case, merchants need to acquire trust from the consumers [6].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
