Refinement continued iteratively until September 2021.Social media capital: Conceptualizing the nature, acquisition, and expenditure of social media-based organizational resources2020, International Journal of Accounting Information SystemsOverall, while there is a growing body of research documenting blunt cause-and-effect relationships, there is little theorizing around key processes – of how social capital is accumulated, converted, or expended to deliver other valuable resources or improved organizational performance. This lacuna is particularly acute in the AIS and accounting literatures, which beyond recent individual-level social capital research (Kelton and Pennington, 2019) and general interest in intangible assets, Big Data, and data mining (e.g., Alles and Gray, 2016; Amani and Fadlalla, 2017), have been mostly silent on how to conceptualize, measure, and mobilize social resources. If AIS scholars and practitioners are to extract actionable, valid knowledge claims and insights from Big Data sources such as social media (Amani and Fadlalla, 2017), it is imperative to develop a conceptual, theory-based understanding of the relationships among the data, the intangible assets, and organizational outcomes (Alles and Gray, 2016).View all citing articles on Scopus© 2017 Elsevier Inc.
