The paper examines how solvers in crowdsourcing contests prioritize feedback from seekers over peers, even when equally constructive, and proposes an intervention to improve feedback usage for better outcomes.
Methods: The study involved a field survey and three online experiments to test the theorized source effect and the proposed feedback evaluation intervention.
Key Findings: Solvers' feedback usage patterns, the source effect of feedback (seeker vs. peer), and the influence of feedback constructiveness on idea quality and solvers’ winning prospects.

Discipline: Social Science
The study shows that algorithmic surveillance undermines trust and fairness, while increasing privacy concerns among crowdworkers, influencing their compliance, alteration, or resistance behaviors, with decontextualization intensifying these dynamics.
Methods: Three-wave survey data analysis of European online crowdworkers, analyzed through socio-technical systems theory and micro-level legitimacy frameworks.
Key Findings: The effects of algorithmic surveillance on trust, privacy concerns, fairness, and workers' compliance, alteration, or resistance, with a focus on the moderating role of perceived decontextualization.
