Exploring the role of AI algorithmic agents: The impact of algorithmic decision autonomy on consumer purchase decisions
Open accessAbstract
Although related studies have examined the impact of different images of artificial intelligence products on consumer evaluation, exploring the impact on consumer purchase decisions from the perspective of algorithmic decision autonomy remains under-explored. Based on the self-determination theory, this research discusses the influence of the agent decision-making role played by different AI algorithmic decision autonomy on consumer purchase decisions. The results of the 3 studies indicate that algorithmic decision autonomy has an inverted U-shaped effect on consumer’s purchase decisions, consumer’s self-efficacy mediates the relationship between algorithmic decision autonomy and purchase decisions, and consumer’s power distance moderates the relationship between algorithmic decision autonomy, self-efficacy, and purchase decisions. The research results can provide references for marketers, retailers, algorithm designers, and other parties to formulate algorithm marketing strategies, make AI algorithm decisions better serve consumers, and achieve value co-creation with consumers.

Autonomy should be seen as a boundary condition that affects the delegation mechanism rather than as a simple main effect.
“This suggests that autonomy should be seen as a boundary condition that affects the delegation mechanism rather than as a simple main effect [40,46].”

In “Overview of studies > Study 1: Main effect” (page unavailable), the paper reports an inverted U-shaped main effect of algorithmic decision autonomy on purchase decisions. Its Theoretical implications section (page unavailable) identifies power distance—not autonomy—as the moderating boundary condition. This is contrary to the claim that autonomy should be treated as a boundary condition rather than a main effect. (LLM, conf=0.88)

The theoretical-background section on algorithmic decision autonomy and purchase decisions says that appropriately supportive algorithmic decisions can increase users’ satisfaction and loyalty. It does not establish dominant satisfaction/continuance pathways; the reported studies instead examine purchase decisions and self-efficacy, including an inverted-U relationship. No page number is available in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.82)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredIn the main empirical cluster (Autonomy-1, recommendation/support scope), positive outcomes usually follow a utility/assurance chain: performance cues and interaction quality make people feel more useful and satisfied, which builds trust and leads to downstream adoption/continuance or purchase-intent outcomes.

Study 3 (Overview of studies; no page given) reports that high algorithmic decision autonomy reduced self-determination and self-efficacy among participants with high power distance. The study used controlled scenarios, including a simulated e-commerce shopping guide, rather than observed transactions. But the paper does not establish that this mechanism is *often* untested in real-life transactions, and it measures self-efficacy rather than powerlessness directly. (LLM, conf=0.82)

The effects of manipulating autonomy frequently shift through governance mechanisms, such as perceived control and powerlessness/reactance.
“Second, the effects of manipulating autonomy frequently shift through governance mechanisms, such as perceived control and powerlessness/reactance, indicating that future research should treat governance and delegation as causal constructs rather than downstream correlates [23,24,46].”

Study 2 (Mediating effects; page unavailable) reports that self-efficacy partially mediates the effect of algorithmic decision autonomy on consumer purchase decisions. Study 3 (Moderating effect of power distance; page unavailable) reports that power distance changes this effect. The paper does not establish perceived control or powerlessness/reactance as mediators, and its consumer-purchase findings do not support the broader claim that autonomy effects frequently shift through those mechanisms.

“In role-based autonomy frameworks (e.g., substitute vs. co-assistant vs. performer), the co-assistant role can attain the optimal equilibrium between support and perceived agency, corroborating the overarching conclusion that delegation is most effective when users maintain significant authorship and control rights [46].”

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.
