Research: What Consumers Find Persuasive in Online Reviews - Harvard
Business Review (No paywall)

[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=200942&nl=daily people
report that online reviews are one of the main factors they consider
before making a purchase. Unsurprisingly, many companies have
attempted to harness reviews’ persuasive power by highlighting those
they believe will be most compelling to customers. But what do
customers find persuasive in a review? Researchers analyzed 111,728
purchase reviews and conducted experiments with over 2,000
participants to answer that question. Their findings indicate that
persuasiveness is dictated by how frequently an item is purchased. For
items that are purchased only rarely, recommendations seem to be the
most persuasive. But when items are likely to be bought frequently —
for example, cosmetics or bottles of wine — it’s most persuasive
when reviewers indicate they would buy that item again. This is
because recommendations are viewed as more credible than repurchase
intentions for infrequently bought items, while the opposite is true
for frequently purchased goods or services.

weapons project. The high-stakes targets included the Iranian Ministry
of Defense Headquarters and the main base of the SPND nuclear project,
locations which Israeli authorities said advanced Iran's efforts to
obtain nuclear weaponry and served as a place where the country hid

AT MIDDAY, BY the time the No Kings march in Chicago was due to start,
so many people were squashed into Daley Plaza, in the city's downtown,
that it caused a sort of gridlock, with protesters unable to march in
any direction. There were a few stirring speeches - for those close
enough to hear, anyway - but mostly people milled around enjoying the
show. Some came in fancy dress: furries; Mexican wrestlers; clowns and
two men dressed as cardboard tanks. Some carried megaphones. The
communists, with hammer and sickle flags, were well prepared; the
families with small children on cargo-bicycles less so. What united
them all was disdain for Donald Trump.
