ABSTRACT This study investigated the impact of anthropomorphism on customers’ decisions to use artificial intelligence (AI) devices in hotels, along with other traditional predictors. The study’s model considered the co-occurrence of positive and negative effects of anthropomorphism, including social presence and identity threats, which compete to control evaluative attitudes toward AI devices. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the model using data from 363 participants. The results showed that anthropomorphism positively enhances social presence, leading to higher performance expectancy and positive emotions toward AI devices. Anthropomorphism also entails identity threats, resulting in increased effort expectancy and negative emotions. These trade-offs highlight the need for hotels to consider how customers perceive and respond to anthropomorphized AI devices during service delivery and to choose the level of anthropomorphism accordingly. This study highlights the benefits and cost trade-offs inherent in anthropomorphism and explains how they affect the evaluative attitudinal responses toward AI devices.

ABSTRACT Hotels across the globe are trying to adopt green technologies for reducing the negative impact of the hospitality segment on the environment. However, the implementation of green technologies in hotels can be affected by the perspectives of managers. There is a need to assess the views of managers regarding the enablers, barriers and skill-sets that affect the adoption of green technologies in hotels. Existing studies fail to draw a proper link between the factors that affect green technology use in hotels and the website content of green hotels. Semi-structured interviews of fifteen managers and topic-modeling of the website content of forty-one Indian green hotels reveal that there is a gap in communications and awareness. The qualitative study using a grounded theory and phenomenology approach has found motivators like, cost reduction, value-for-nature, and barriers like, misperception of customers, high cost. The study highlighted the importance of green skills as a moderator. 全球的酒店都在尝试采用绿色技术来减少酒店业对环境的负面影响. 然而,酒店绿色技术的实施可能会受到管理者观点的影响. 有必要评估管理人员对影响酒店采用绿色技术的推动因素、障碍和技能的看法. 现有研究未能在影响酒店绿色技术使用的因素与绿色酒店网站内容之间建立适当的联系. 对 15 名经理的半结构化访谈和对 41 家印度绿色酒店网站内容的主题建模表明,在沟通和意识方面存在差距. 使用扎根理论和现象学方法的定性研究发现了诸如降低成本、保护自然价值等激励因素,以及诸如对客户的误解、高成本等障碍. 该研究强调了绿色技能作为主持人的重要性.

ABSTRACT The development of peer-to-peer (P2P) accommodation market has seen multiple platforms providing booking services to consumers. As such consumers’ switching intention is equally important as repurchase intention to platform operators. This study applies cue utilization theory to study the effects of perceived corporate social responsibility (CSR) on P2P accommodation consumers’ repurchase intention and switching intention through trust and privacy risk. The study results show that the three dimensions (i.e. environmental, economic, and ethical) of perceived CSR have positive effects on trust, which increases repurchase intention but reduces switching intention; the environmental dimension of perceived CSR has a negative effect on privacy risk, which reduces repurchase intention but increases switching intention. Trust and privacy risk both mediate the effects of perceived CSR on repurchase/switching intention, but the indirect effects through trust are larger. The study demonstrates the utility of CSR in P2P accommodation platforms’ marketing and customer relationship management strategies. 点对点 (P2P) 住宿市场的发展已经看到多个平台为消费者提供预订服务. 因此者对于平台经营者而言, 消费者的转换意愿与复购意愿同等重要. 本研究运用线索利用理论, 通过信任和隐私风险, 研究感知企业社会责任 (CSR) 对P2P住宿消费者的回购意愿和转换意愿的影响. 研究结果表明, 感知CSR的三个维度 (即环境、经济和伦理) 对信任有正向影响, 增加了回购意愿但降低了转换意愿; 感知CSR的环境维度对隐私风险有负面影响, 降低了回购意愿, 但增加了转换意愿. 信任和隐私风险都调解感知 CSR 对回购/转换意图的影响, 但通过信任产生的间接影响更大. 该研究证明了企业社会责任在 P2P 住宿平台的营销和客户关系管理策略中的效用.

ABSTRACT This study aimed to conceptualize ethical leadership (EL) in a hospitality context, grounded in Eastern philosophical foundation. Four studies consisting of both qualitative and quantitative were conducted, involving 732 hotel employees from 11 hotels. Study one used literature review, in-depth interviews, and focus group discussion to conceptualize ethical leadership as a four-dimensional construct, including moral person, employee care, moral management, and social responsibility. Three empirical studies were employed (study 2–4) to examine the psychometric properties of the proposed scale, including content, convergent, discriminant, concurrent and nomological validity. A nomological framework was examined, in which ethical leadership was proposed to influence employee voice behavior via employee psychological safety and leader-member exchange. This study enriches ethical leadership literature and provides a reliable and valid measuring tool for hospitality scholars interested in studying leadership in Eastern cultures. It also provides insights for hotel managers to develop and enhance ethical leadership skills.

ABSTRACT This research aims to demystify the links between meal-sharing experience, overall satisfaction, and behavioral intentions (e.g., re-purchase and word-of-mouth) based on social practice theory and planned behavior theory. It utilized a questionnaire to test the relationships through the purposeful sampling of 217 Indian domestic travelers. The current study applied both the symmetric method of partial least squares-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) and the asymmetric method of fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA). The PLS-SEM results showed that only the hospitality dimension of the meal-sharing experience positively relates to travelers’ overall satisfaction, re-purchase, and word-of-mouth (WoM) intentions. Apart from this, the results of fsQCA demonstrated several sufficient combinations of dimensions to generate satisfaction, re-purchase, and WoM intentions. It has several practical implications for hosts of meal-sharing platforms as to how they can improve their guests’ experience to delight and get them to re-purchase their services.

ABSTRACT This study is dedicated to m-commerce and examines the key factors determining loyalty to online food delivery (OFD) services in Indonesia, Taiwan, and New Zealand, as these countries have faced varying degrees of pandemic severity. The data analysis using Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) shows that the quality of both food and e-service, satisfaction, perceived value, and trust are significant predictors of loyalty in all countries. Food quality drives consumer loyalty, contentment, and perceived value in Indonesia and Taiwan, but e-service quality is the main determinant in New Zealand. These differences can be attributed to the status quo of the OFD service market in the three countries pre-Covid, cultural factors, the pandemic severity, and consumer access to other distribution channels. Best practice recommendations for marketing managers associated with OFD are presented.

ABSTRACT Understanding how extroversion diversity influences group service innovation helps hospitality firms achieve service excellence. We developed a multilevel model of the link between extroversion diversity and group service innovation and the mediation and moderation mechanisms underlying the direct relationship. We collected data from China and Australia. We utilized multilevel structural equation modeling for model validation. Results from both samples demonstrated that extroversion diversity was positively related to group service innovation. Creative role identity was a mediator between extroversion diversity and group service innovation. Chinese result showed that adhocracy culture positively moderated the link between creative role identity and group service innovation. However, adhocracy culture was not a moderator on such a link among Australian employees. Therefore, we advanced the stream of diversity innovation in the hospitality discipline and offer managers suggestion to improve service innovation among work groups by building group diversity via recruitment and trainings. 了解外向型多样性如何影响集团服务创新, 有助于酒店公司实现卓越服务. 我们开发了外向多样性和群体服务创新之间联系的多层次模型, 以及直接关系背后的中介和调节机制. 我们收集了来自中国和澳大利亚的数据. 我们利用多级结构方程建模进行模型验证. 两个样本的结果都表明, 外向多样性与群体服务创新呈正相关. 创造性角色认同是外向多样性和群体服务创新之间的中介. 中国的研究结果表明, 专治文化对创造性角色认同和群体服务创新之间的联系起到了正向调节作用. 然而, 对于澳大利亚员工之间的这种联系, 专治文化并不是一个调节因素. 因此, 我们在酒店学科中提出了多元化创新流, 并为管理者提供建议, 通过招聘和培训建立团队多样性, 以提高工作团队之间的服务创新.
ABSTRACT Understanding how extrapolation diversity influences group service innovation helps hospitality firms achieve service excellence We developed a multi-level model of the link between extrapolation diversity and group service innovation and the mediation and modeling mechanisms underlying the direct relationship We collected data from China and Australia We utilized multi-level structural equation modeling for model validation Results from both samples demonstrated that extrapolation diversity was positively related to group service innovation Creative role identity was a mediator between extrapolation diversity and group service innovation Chinese result showed that advertising culture positively modeled the link between creative role identity and group service innovation How, advertising culture was not a modeler on such a link among Australian employees There are more, we advanced the stream of diversity innovation in the hospitality division and offer managers suggest to improve service innovation among work groups by building group diversity via commission and training Understanding how extroverted diversity affects group service innovation can help hotel companies achieve excellent service We have developed a multi-level model of the relationship between outward diversity and group service innovation, as well as the mediating and moderating mechanisms behind the direct relationship We collected data from China and Australia We use multi-level structural equation modeling for model validation The results of both samples indicate a positive correlation between outward diversity and group service innovation Creative role identification is the intermediary between outward diversity and group service innovation The research results in China indicate that authoritarian culture plays a positive moderating role in the connection between creative role identification and group service innovation However, for this connection between Australian employees, authoritarian culture is not a moderating factor Therefore, we have proposed a diversified innovation stream in the hotel discipline and provided suggestions to managers to establish team diversity through recruitment and training, in order to improve service innovation among work teams

Creative role identity was a mediator between extroversion diversity and group service innovation. Chinese result showed that adhocracy culture positively moderated the link between creative role identity and group service innovation. However, adhocracy culture was not a moderator on such a link among Australian employees. Therefore, we advanced the stream of diversity innovation in the hospitality discipline and offer managers suggestion to improve service innovation among work groups by building group diversity via recruitment and trainings. 了解外向型多样性如何影响集团服务创新, 有助于酒店公司实现卓越服务. 我们开发了外向多样性和群体服务创新之间联系的多层次模型, 以及直接关系背后的中介和调节机制. 我们收集了来自中国和澳大利亚的数据. 我们利用多级结构方程建模进行模型验证. 两个样本的结果都表明, 外向多样性与群体服务创新呈正相关. 创造性角色认同是外向多样性和群体服务创新之间的中介. 中国的研究结果表明, 专治文化对创造性角色认同和群体服务创新之间的联系起到了正向调节作用. 然而, 对于澳大利亚员工之间的这种联系, 专治文化并不是一个调节因素. 因此, 我们在酒店学科中提出了多元化创新流, 并为管理者提供建议, 通过招聘和培训建立团队多样性, 以提高工作团队之间的服务创新.","PeriodicalId":47995,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hospitality Marketing & Management","volume":"32 1","pages":"767 - 791"},"PeriodicalIF":12.5,"publicationDate":"2023-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46470721","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ABSTRACT Robot services have become an essential competitive differentiator in the hospitality and tourism industry. Seminal studies indicate the need for more profound knowledge about the factors that can increase the acceptance of service robots. This paper investigates the relationship between informational cues and acceptance of service robots through a meta-analysis. Our study also analyzes the acceptance of service robots through contextual characteristics moderators. The results showed that perceived robot trust influences the relationship between informational cues (anthropomorphism and social influence) and acceptance of service robots. By analyzing previous studies, our framework demonstrates that acceptance of service robots has increased more after the COVID pandemic than before the COVID pandemic. Furthermore, the relationship between attitude toward robots and robot usage intention tends to be greater in humanoid service robots (than social robots) and analytical intelligence (than mechanical intelligence).
