Abstract

L'objectif de cet article est de focaliser sur la valeur informationnelle délivrée par les communautés virtuelles sur Internet. Cette recherche à partir des motivations pour le recours à Internet par le consommateur souligne l'influence de la méta-information comme un antécédent de la perception de la valeur informationnelle délivrée par les communautés virtuelles. Finalement, les communautés virtuelles sont considérées comme une ressource pertinente par les consommateurs.
