Measuring pro-environmental beliefs is vital for knowledge development and decision-making to improve sustainable tourist behaviour. The primary empirical measure of pro-environmental beliefs is the New Environmental Paradigm. The current use of the New Environmental Paradigm is imperfect: (1) the 15-item version lengthens questionnaires, potentially reducing response rates and reducing data quality; (2) using varying subsets of items to reduce respondent burden undermines measurement validity and comparability across studies. We assess all possible 5-item combinations of the 15-item version (one per facet) to produce the NEP-5, a 5-item measure with high test-retest reliability (0.887 compared to 0.904 for the 15-item version), high convergent validity with the 15-item version (0.960 within-waves, 0.869 across), and equally good predictive validity as the 15-item version.
衡量亲环境信念对于知识发展和决策以改善可持续旅游行为至关重要。亲环境信念的主要经验措施是新环境范式。目前新环境范式的使用是不完善的:(1)15个项目的版本延长了问卷,可能降低回复率和降低数据质量;(2)使用不同的项目子集来减少被调查者的负担,破坏了测量的有效性和研究之间的可比性。我们评估了15项版本的所有可能的5项组合(每个面一个)来产生NEP-5,这是一个具有高测试重测信度的5项测量(0.887,而15项版本为0.904),15项版本的高收敛效度(波内0.960,跨0.869),以及与15项版本同样好的预测效度。

This study employs an individual capital theoretical framework to analyse travel vlogs and identify ways to maximise vlog performance success. The first phase analyses the social media content of ten vlogs and their viewer comments (n = 816). This was followed by a second phase comprising in-depth interviews with ten viewers and ten destination marketers to validate and re-evaluate the initial findings. Thematic analysis of the vlogs reveals six attributes of individual capital. This study extends the theory of individual capital within the context of destination marketing and travel vlogging by detailing each attribute and identifying a new one.
本研究采用个人资本理论框架来分析旅游视频日志,并确定最大化视频日志绩效成功的方法。第一阶段分析了10个vlog的社交媒体内容和他们的观众评论(n = 816)。接下来是第二阶段,包括对10名观众和10名目的地营销人员的深入访谈,以验证和重新评估最初的发现。对视频博客的专题分析揭示了个人资本的六大属性。本研究在目的地营销和旅游视频博客的背景下,通过细化每个属性并识别一个新的属性,扩展了个人资本理论。

This study examines the economic and policy factors shaping multi-destination tourism flows in the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation region, focusing on Japan, Taiwan, and Thailand from 2008 to 2023. Using gravity model and vector autoregression analysis, it identifies GDP, exchange rates, visa policies, government efficiency, and travel distance as key determinants. Results show Japan attracts high-income tourists, Taiwan acts as a transit hub, and Thailand appeals to budget-conscious travelers. The analysis highlights both competitive and complementary dynamics, underscoring the need for regional tourism coordination. The proposed “Sustainable Asia Tourism Trail” supports the United Nations SDGs by encouraging environmentally friendly travel and cross-border cooperation. Policy recommendations include streamlining visas, investing in infrastructure, and implementing coordinated strategies to strengthen regional competitiveness and sustainability.

In recent years, ski area operators in Switzerland have faced decreasing demand while ski lift and snowmaking capabilities have increased – partly using financial aid from public funds. It is therefore crucial to determine to what extent ski area investment supports demand and affects the competition for the remaining guests. Exploiting firm-level and natural snowpack data, we find that ski areas with above-median snowmaking capabilities decrease their natural snow dependency and that ski lift investments induce a positive, albeit small, effect on outcomes in the winter following their construction. Additionally, we document adverse effects on demand for nearby neighboring ski area expansions. The results imply that investments in high-capacity lifts are relatively ineffective at retaining demand and sustaining revenue.
近年来,瑞士的滑雪场运营商面临着需求下降的问题,而滑雪缆车和造雪能力却得到了提高,这在一定程度上得益于公共基金的财政援助。因此,确定滑雪场投资在多大程度上支持需求并影响对剩余客人的竞争是至关重要的。利用企业层面和自然积雪数据,我们发现造雪能力高于中位数的滑雪区减少了对自然雪的依赖,并且滑雪缆车投资对其建设后冬季的结果产生了积极的影响,尽管影响很小。此外,我们记录了对附近邻近滑雪场扩张需求的不利影响。结果表明,对大容量电梯的投资在保持需求和维持收入方面相对无效。

Holidays abroad of Dutch citizens do not increase their appetite for greater European integration 荷兰公民出国度假并没有增加他们对欧洲一体化的兴趣

What is the relationship between international travel and pro-European dispositions? Most theoretical research on European integration argues that international travel fosters these dispositions, and many cross-sectional studies support this expectation. However, support for this association rests on strong and questionable micro-foundational assumptions. This article critically engages with the association between international travel and pro-European dispositions. To do so, we draw on social psychology models and tourism research, which emphasize that the quality and impact of travel experiences are highly heterogeneous and contingent on individual, interactional, and contextual factors. Building on these perspectives, we predict no association between international travel and support for further European integration. To test this prediction, we use panel data from the Netherlands and employ two-way fixed-effects models to evaluate both the positive and negligible association hypotheses. In line with our prediction, we find that among Dutch citizens, within-individual increases in the number of international trips are not significantly related to changes in support for European integration. In summary, evidence from a rigorous test does not support the claim that typical international travel fosters pro-European dispositions.
国际旅行和亲欧倾向之间的关系是什么?大多数关于欧洲一体化的理论研究认为,国际旅行促进了这些倾向,许多横断面研究也支持这一预期。然而,对这种联系的支持建立在强大而可疑的微观基础假设之上。这篇文章批判性地探讨了国际旅行和亲欧洲倾向之间的联系。为此,我们借鉴了社会心理学模型和旅游研究,它们强调旅游体验的质量和影响是高度异质性的,取决于个人、互动和环境因素。基于这些观点,我们预测国际旅行和对进一步欧洲一体化的支持之间没有关联。为了验证这一预测,我们使用来自荷兰的面板数据,并采用双向固定效应模型来评估正关联假设和可忽略关联假设。与我们的预测一致,我们发现在荷兰公民中,个人内部国际旅行次数的增加与支持欧洲一体化的变化没有显著相关。总之,来自严格测试的证据并不支持典型的国际旅行促进亲欧倾向的说法。

Tourism growth relies heavily on transport infrastructure. In regions with unique geography, enhanced accessibility can significantly boost tourism. This study examines the impact of the Suramadu Bridge on tourism on Madura Island, Indonesia, using a difference-in-difference (DiD) approach. Unlike prior research focusing on rail transport, this study highlights the overlooked role of bridges in regional tourism. Findings reveal that, unexpectedly, the bridge did not significantly boost tourism, aligning with Leiper's open system framework. Despite the enhanced accessibility, internal barriers to tourism remain. The study highlights the need for integrated planning, multi-stakeholder strategies, and complementary policies to maximize infrastructure benefits. It also emphasizes the importance of viability studies to guide future projects.
旅游业的增长严重依赖交通基础设施。在具有独特地理位置的地区,可达性的提高可以显著促进旅游业的发展。本研究采用差异中的差异(DiD)方法考察了苏拉玛杜大桥对印尼马杜拉岛旅游业的影响。与以往的研究重点放在铁路运输不同,本研究强调了桥梁在区域旅游中被忽视的作用。研究结果显示,出乎意料的是,这座桥并没有显著促进旅游业,这与莱珀的开放系统框架一致。尽管可达性有所提高,但旅游业的内部障碍仍然存在。该研究强调了综合规划、多方利益相关者战略和互补政策的必要性,以实现基础设施效益最大化。它还强调可行性研究对指导未来项目的重要性。

This study examines how international associations create lasting impacts through their conferences. By analyzing mission statements and conference descriptions, it identifies legacy-driven strategies. Using Latent Dirichlet Allocation, the study uncovers key themes and their alignment with associations' missions. Findings show that international associations actively integrate legacy-building into their conference strategies, shaping knowledge dissemination, stakeholder engagement, and long-term societal contributions. Associations collaborate with event organizers, local partners, and stakeholders to extend impacts beyond knowledge exchange, fostering innovation and cross-sector collaboration. This study focuses on association-driven legacy strategies rather than destination marketing or infrastructure legacies. While associations may contribute to tourism and economic outcomes, the primary emphasis is on how they conceptualize and implement legacy-building initiatives within their events.
本研究考察了国际协会如何通过其会议产生持久的影响。通过分析任务陈述和会议描述,它确定了遗留驱动的策略。使用潜在狄利克雷分配,该研究揭示了关键主题及其与协会使命的一致性。研究结果表明,国际协会积极地将遗产建设纳入其会议战略,塑造知识传播、利益相关者参与和长期社会贡献。协会与活动组织者、当地合作伙伴和利益相关者合作,扩大知识交流之外的影响,促进创新和跨部门合作。本研究侧重于关联驱动的遗留策略,而不是目的地营销或基础设施遗留。虽然协会可以为旅游和经济成果做出贡献,但主要重点是他们如何在其活动中构思和实施遗产建设倡议。

This study investigates the semantic alignment between Airbnb property descriptions and guest reviews. Word2Vec embeddings and affinity propagation clustering are used to identify granular semantic concepts, enabling a detailed comparison of the two text types. A new metric, concept coverage ratio, is introduced to measure the extent to which the guest review content is reflected in property descriptions. Results show that a higher concept coverage ratio is generally associated with more positive sentiment in reviews, suggesting that better alignment between host and guest perspectives contributes to guest satisfaction. However, longer and detailed descriptions may limit the potential for pleasantly surprising guests, as it reduces the chance for positive disconfirmation. These findings offer practical insights for improving communication in peer-to-peer accommodation.
本研究调查了Airbnb酒店描述和客人评论之间的语义一致性。Word2Vec嵌入和亲和传播聚类用于识别粒度语义概念,从而可以对两种文本类型进行详细的比较。引入了一个新的度量标准,即概念覆盖率,来衡量客人评论内容在酒店描述中反映的程度。结果表明,较高的概念覆盖率通常与评论中更多的积极情绪相关,这表明主人和客人观点之间更好的一致性有助于客人满意度。然而,长而详细的描述可能会限制给客人带来惊喜的可能性,因为它减少了正面不确认的机会。这些发现为改善点对点住宿中的沟通提供了实用的见解。

Lead times in flux: Analyzing Airbnb booking dynamics during global Upheavals (2018–2022) 变动中的交货时间:全球动荡期间Airbnb预订动态分析(2018-2022)

Short-term changes in booking behaviors can significantly undermine naive forecasting methods in the travel and hospitality industry, especially during periods of global upheaval. Traditional metrics like average or median lead times capture only broad trends, often missing subtle yet impactful distributional shifts. In this study, we introduce a normalized L1 (Manhattan) distance to measure the full distributional divergence in Airbnb booking lead times from 2018 to 2022, with particular emphasis on the COVID-19 pandemic. Using data from four major U.S. cities, we find a two-phase pattern of disruption: a sharp initial change at the pandemic's onset, followed by partial recovery but persistent divergences from pre-2018 norms. Our approach reveals shifts in travelers' planning horizons that remain undetected by conventional summary statistics. These findings highlight the importance of examining the entire lead-time distribution when forecasting demand and setting pricing strategies. By capturing nuanced changes in booking behaviors, the normalized L1 metric enhances both demand forecasting and the broader strategic toolkit for tourism stakeholders, from revenue management and marketing to operational planning, amid continued market volatility.
预订行为的短期变化会极大地破坏旅游和酒店业天真的预测方法,尤其是在全球动荡时期。像平均或中位数交货期这样的传统指标只能捕捉到广泛的趋势,往往忽略了微妙但有影响力的分布变化。在本研究中,我们引入了标准化L1(曼哈顿)距离来衡量2018年至2022年Airbnb预订提前期的全部分布差异,并特别强调了COVID-19大流行。利用美国四个主要城市的数据,我们发现了一个两阶段的中断模式:大流行开始时的急剧变化,随后是部分恢复,但与2018年之前的常态持续存在差异。我们的方法揭示了旅行者规划视野的变化,这是传统的汇总统计所无法发现的。这些发现强调了在预测需求和制定定价策略时检查整个交货期分布的重要性。通过捕捉预订行为的细微变化,标准化L1指标在持续的市场波动中增强了需求预测和旅游业利益相关者更广泛的战略工具包,从收入管理、营销到运营规划。

Traditional metrics like average or median lead times capture only broad trends, often missing subtle yet impactful distributional shifts. In this study, we introduce a normalized L1 (Manhattan) distance to measure the full distributional divergence in Airbnb booking lead times from 2018 to 2022, with particular emphasis on the COVID-19 pandemic. Using data from four major U.S. cities, we find a two-phase pattern of disruption: a sharp initial change at the pandemic's onset, followed by partial recovery but persistent divergences from pre-2018 norms. Our approach reveals shifts in travelers' planning horizons that remain undetected by conventional summary statistics.
