受社交媒体兴起的影响，我们建立了一个模型，研究一个经济体的社会学习潜力对采用质量不确定的创新的影响。假设消费者是前瞻性的（即，认识到等待信息的价值），均衡动态依赖于信息环境的定性和定量特征。我们确定的信息环境，受到饱和效应，即增加社会学习的机会可以减缓采用和学习，并不增加消费者福利。我们还提出了一个新的，纯粹的信息解释不同的常见的采用曲线（S形与凹）。
Motivated by the rise of social media, we build a model studying the effect of an economy’s potential for social learning on the adoption of innovations of uncertain quality. Provided consumers are forward-looking (i.e., recognize the value of waiting for information), equilibrium dynamics depend non-trivially on qualitative and quantitative features of the informational environment. We identify informational environments that are subject to a saturation effect, whereby increased opportunities for social learning can slow down adoption and learning and do not increase consumer welfare. We also suggest a novel, purely informational explanation for different commonly observed adoption curves (S-shaped vs. concave).
