Abstract
The provision of information and emotions is the core competitive edge for mobile apps to attract users to utilize their services and functionalities. Considering user demands and gender differences, it holds great significance for mobile apps to optimize personalized services by elucidating the formation mechanism of privacy disclosure behavior from the perspective of online social support (information and emotional). We adopt online social support theory and construct a model based on Stimulus-Organism-Response (SOR) framework to collect questionnaire data from 548 respondents for empirical analysis. The results showed that both online information support and online emotional support have direct or indirect positive effects on privacy disclosure behavior, with perceived justice and privacy concern mediating this effect. Perceived justice has a negative impact on privacy concern. Besides, females exhibit higher levels of privacy concern and lower levels of disclosure, and there are differences in the types of demand support between males and females in privacy decision-making.
