Finalists were selected by JM’s AEs, ERB, and Advisory Board. The winning article was selected by a committee comprised of Coeditors and Advisory Board members.

This year’s winner is a conceptual paper that offers a theoretically rigorous, forward-looking framework to help scholars understand the long-term trajectory of computer-mediated environments (CMEs).

The article demonstrate that the emerging, multi-faceted literature in this domain has a parsimonious underlying structure involving four key interactions within CMEs: firm-consumer interactions, consumer-firm interactions, consumer-consumer interactions, and firm-firm interactions. The framework not only organizes the literature, but also identifies important gaps and promising theory development opportunities.
