🤝#JHTR study found trust and citizenship behaviors collectively determine exhibitor loyalty🤝 In a recent article published in Journal of Hospitality & Tourism Research, Jiwon Lee and Chris Ryan (The University of Waikato) examined the dynamics of trust-commitment and behavioral relationships within the exhibitor–organizer relationship in MICE research Drawing on the data from 240 exhibitors at major business-to-business exhibitions in Seoul: 💡This study found that trust and citizenship behaviors collectively partly determine exhibitor loyalty in B2B exhibitions 💡Favorable interactions and responsive exhibitors’ positive behaviors may not necessarily result in loyalty for the exhibition 💡Repeat exhibitors, if they already have trust, are more engaged and responsible, leading to more successful exhibitions The eCopy of this article is available in #JHTR’s OnlineFirst column now: 🔗 https://lnkd.in/ewSV4U7Q DOWNLOAD and READ the paper if you interested in trust, participation behavior, citizenship behavior, loyalty, value cocreation, and social exchange theory #ICHRIE | #HospitalityResearch | #TourismResearch | #ImpactfulResearch | #Trust | #ParticipationBehavior | #CitizenshipBehavior | #Loyalty | #ValueCocreation | #SocialExchangeTheory | #UniversityofWaikato |

📚#JHTR study shows how destination rankings change across (non-)crisis conditions📚 In a recent article published in Journal of Hospitality & Tourism Research, Jason Chen, Gang Li, Allan Williams (University of Surrey) and Vladimír Baláž (Slovak Academy of Sciences) examined how knowledge and risk attitudes influence destination-ranking decisions in non-crisis as well as different types of crisis conditions Through combining multi-source data with a modified swarm intelligence optimizer, the research team: 🔎 Identifies remarkably persistent predictors of overall destination rankings in all three interventions or crisis scenarios 🔎 Empirically proved that different crisis scenarios have different impacts on destination rankings 🔎 Unveiled that destination preferences, including strong persistence during crises, are explained by how the influence of tacit and codified knowledge is shaped by the familiarity heuristic and recency bias The eCopy of this article is available in #JHTR’s OnlineFirst column now: 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eyN_p_pr DOWNLOAD and READ the paper if you interested in crisis, risk attitudes, destination knowledge, preference persistence, destination assessment and destination decisions #ICHRIE | #HospitalityResearch | #TourismResearch | #ImpactfulResearch | #Crisis | #TourismCrisis | #RiskAttitudes | #DestinationKnowledge | #PreferencePersistence | #DestinationAssessment | #DestinationDecisions | #UnversityofSurrey | #SlovakAcademyofScience | 

📢#JHTR study proposes a new method of tourist demand forecasting📢 In a recent article published in Journal of Hospitality & Tourism Research, Yilin Zhou, Jianzhou Wang, Yue Yuh (Dongbei University of Finance and Economics) and Neil Hengyun Li (School of Hotel and Tourism Management, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University) proposed an integrated method for tourism demand interval prediction by combining multi-source data with a modified swarm intelligence optimizer Different from similar studies published in the past, this study: 🎖️ Is the first to use multi-source data to forecast tourism demand intervals 🎖️ References probability density methods for tourism demand forecasting 🎖️ Utilizes the modified transit search optimization algorithm to forecast travel demand intervals 🎖️ Shows that MTSO-ARIMAX has superior performance compared with benchmarks The eCopy of this article is available in #JHTR’s OnlineFirst column now: 🔗https://lnkd.in/gmJe5qaD DOWNLOAD and READ the paper if you interested in tourism demand forecasting, interval forecasting, modified transit search optimization algorithm, and multi-source big data #ICHRIE | #HospitalityResearch | #TourismResearch | #ImpactfulResearch | #TourismDemand | #DemandForecasting | #IntervalForecasting | #ModifiedTransitSearchOptimizationAlgorithm | #MultiSourceData | #BigData | #DongbeiUniversityofFinanceandEconomics | #PolyUSHTM |

🎬 #JHTR study provides a systems perspective on film tourism🎬 In a recent article published in Journal of Hospitality & Tourism Research, Sangkyun Kim (PhD) (Edith Cowan University), Anton Klarin (Curtin University), Stijn Reijnders, Nicky van Es (Erasmus University Rotterdam) & Qijie X. (Monash University) work towards a robust historiographical and themed complementary scientometric analysis of film tourism In this seminal paper, the research team: 🏷️ Concludes that we lack a coherent body of historical, synthesized knowledge associated with film tourism 🏷️ Offers a comprehensive systems analysis of film tourism scholarship through historiographical and scientometric approaches in order to show the evolution of film tourism from its inception to maturity 🏷️ Suggests combining product life cycle analysis to complement historiographical analysis for robustness The eCopy of this article is available in #JHTR’s OnlineFirst column now: 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gW2HpQVs DOWNLOAD and READ the paper if you interested in film tourism, screen tourism, contents tourism, media tourism, anime tourism, bibliometric systematic literature review and historiography #ICHRIE | #HospitalityResearch | #TourismResearch | #ImpactfulResearch | #FilmTourism | #ScreenTourism | #ContentsTourism | #MediaTourism | #AnimeTourism | #Bibliometric | #SystematicLiteratureReview | #Historiography | #Scientometric | #EdithCowanUniversity | #CurtinUniversity | #ErasmusUniversityRotterdam | #MonashSuzhouResearchInstitute |

⚖️#JHTR study compared effectiveness of nostalgia- and forestalgia-focused marketing communications⚖️ In a recent article published in Journal of Hospitality & Tourism Research, Ruiying Cai, (Washington State University), Xi Leung (University of North Texas) & Lu Lu (Temple University) compared the effectiveness of nostalgia and forestalgia focused destination advertising messages in attracting travelers’ destination visit intentions Based on the results from three experimental studies conducted with 660+ U.S. travelers: 👀 Forestalgia (vs. nostalgia) focused ads leads to higher intention to visit 👀 Temporal focus moderates the effect of forestalgia (vs. nostalgia) appeal 👀 Future time perspective moderates the effect of forestalgia (vs. nostalgia) appeal The eCopy of this article is available in #JHTR’s OnlineFirst column now: 🔗https://lnkd.in/gnnWCiwb DOWNLOAD and READ the paper if you interested in nostalgia, forestalgia, construal level theory, Temporal Doppler Effect, rosy effect and future time perspectives #ICHRIE | #HospitalityResearch | #TourismResearch | #ImpactfulResearch | #Nostalgia | #Forestalgia | #ConstrualLevelTheory | #TemporalDopplerEffect | #RosyEffect | #DestinationMarketing | #DestinationAds | #WashingtonStateUniversity | #UniversityofNorthTexas | #TempleUniversity |

🤩#JHTR study proposes an expanded conceptualization of meaningful experiences🤩 In a recent article published in Journal of Hospitality & Tourism Research, Marcel Bastiaansen (Breda University of Applied Sciences) and Mat Duerden (Brigham Young University) proposes an expanded conceptualization of the impact and process associated with meaningful experiences According to the illustrations provided by the research team: 💡 Leisure and tourism are contexts that promote the creation of meaning in life 💡 The psychological literature differentiates between aspects and sources of meaning 💡 Through reflection one can gain insights that relate to the sources of meaning 💡 Promoting reflection is an effective strategy for creating meaningful experiences The eCopy of this article is available in #JHTR’s OnlineFirst column now: 🔗https://lnkd.in/gaiwi8Jy DOWNLOAD and READ the paper if you interested in tourism experience, meaningful experience, experience type, experience design and conceptualization #ICHRIE | #HospitalityResearch | #TourismResearch | #ImpactfulResearch | #TourismExperiene | #MeaningfulExperience | #ExperienceType | #ExperienceDesign | #Meaning | #MeaningInLife | #Conceptualization | #BredaUniversityofAppliedSciences | #BrighamYoungUniversity |
