When Virtual Meets Authenticity: How Virtual Streamers Shape Consumer Decision‐Making Confidence

International Journal of Consumer Studies
ABSTRACT Authenticity has emerged as a central theme in both academic discourse and business practice within the current virtual landscape. Nevertheless, prior marketing research has predominantly focused on the effect of authenticity on purchase decisions, largely overlooking “consumer decision‐making confidence”—

Experimental Observations of the Virtual Anode Motion and Streamer Breakdown Mechanisms in a Pseudospark Discharge

IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science, 2004
A pseudospark (PS) discharge or transient hollow-cathode discharge is a high-voltage low-pressure discharge, which is characterized by the cathode being hollow and the cathode's interior connected to the anode-cathode (A-K) gap by a hole in the center of the cathode.

Unthreshold Impact Ionization by Virtual Electrons in Semiconductors under Streamer Discharge Excitation

physica status solidi (b), 1991
AbstractImpact ionization of semiconductors under ultrafast electric‐field excitation at the streamer discharge front is theoretically investigated. It is shown that impact ionization is initiated by virtual electrons and is of unthreshold character unlike the known mechanisms of impact ionization in quasi‐stationary field. Amplitudes and probabilities

"Nakanohito Does Not Exist!": Hyperpersonal Interaction and Image Construction in Virtual Streamer Culture

Communications in Humanities Research
Virtual streamers, as an emerging form of computer-mediated communication, exhibit unique communicative characteristics in their image construction mechanisms. This study applies hyperpersonal interaction theory and employs literature review and case analysis methods to construct a three-level analytical framework for virtual streamer image ...
