Abstract

Purpose

Literature has paid limited attention to narcissism’s influence on tourism. The pre-trip planning stage involves temporal psychological distance, where decision-making regarding the trip stretches over a period of time and occurs anytime during that period. Using narcissism theory and with temporal distance (6 months and 1 week before the trip) as the moderator, this study examines how tourists’ self-sacrificing self-enhancement and grandiose fantasy – grandiose narcissism facets – and travel motivations affect attraction visit intentions.

Design/methodology/approach

Partial least squares (PLS) analysis was applied on survey information obtained from 374 individuals (200 and 174 were six-months and one-week scenarios, respectively).

Findings

Grandiose narcissism facets affect motivations and visit intentions to various attractions at different temporal distances. The consequences of grandiose fantasy and self-sacrificing self-enhancement on motivation become evident as temporal distance decreases. At large temporal distances, grandiose fantasy positively influences social recognition motivation. At short temporal distances, it positively influences social recognition and ego and negatively influences scenery and relaxation motivations. Self-sacrificing self-enhancement positively influences socialization, exploration, scenery, relaxation and escape motivations at large temporal distances. At short temporal distances, self-sacrificing self-enhancement positively influences historical attraction visit intentions.

Originality/value

Grandiose narcissism facets’ influence on tourism is rarely examined. This study extends the temporal distance concept to the narcissism theory. It integrates the effects of grandiose narcissism and temporal distance on tourists’ motivations and different attraction type visit intentions and shows that motivation is temporally distance-specific.

时空心理距离和自恋心理如何影响游客的旅游动机和景点参观意向?
目的文献对自恋对旅游的影响关注有限。旅行前的计划阶段涉及时间心理距离,即有关旅行的决策跨越一段时间,并在此期间随时发生。本研究利用自恋理论,以时间距离(旅行前 6 个月和 1 周)为调节因素,探讨游客的自我牺牲自我提升和宏伟幻想(宏伟自恋的一面)以及旅行动机如何影响景点访问意向。设计/方法/手段对 374 人(分别为 200 人和 174 人,分别为六个月和一周的情景)的调查信息进行了部分最小二乘法(PLS)分析。研究结果 "冠冕堂皇的自恋面 "在不同的时间距离上影响着不同景点的旅游动机和访问意图。随着时间距离的缩短,自大幻想和自我牺牲式的自我提升对动机的影响变得明显。在大时空距离下,伟大幻想会对社会认可动机产生积极影响。在短时间距离内,它对社会认可和自我产生积极影响,而对风景和放松动机产生消极影响。在大时空距离下,自我牺牲式的自我提升对社交、探索、风景、放松和逃避动机有积极影响。在较短的时空距离上,自我牺牲型自我提升对历史景点访问意向有积极影响。本研究将时间距离概念扩展到自恋理论。它整合了自恋和时空距离对游客动机和不同景点类型访问意图的影响,并表明游客动机具有时空距离特异性。
