ABSTRACT
Although contactless technologies provide smarter and safer experiences to hotel guests, their acceptance is not universal. This study, which considers six types of contactless technology used in hotels, contributes to the literature on the technology readiness index framework and provides insights into hotel guests’ acceptance of different contactless technologies. By integrating latent classes and a hybrid feature into an ordinal logit model, our investigation identified intrinsic acceptance of contactless technology and response style as two distinct sources of heterogeneity in the observed answers to a technology acceptance survey. These two sources of heterogeneity play different roles in individuals’ adoption of contactless technologies and have theoretical and practical implications. To better understand guests’ acceptance of new technologies, researchers and practitioners should consider these types of heterogeneity in their investigations.

ABSTRACT
This study analyzes the development of hotel goal orientation literature by examining 42 articles published between 2003 and 2023. Through content analysis and co-citation analysis using VOSviewer, the bibliometric and intellectual structure contributing to the development of hotel goal orientation literature are identified and visualized. Learning goal orientation is the most adopted conceptualization and its key outcomes being performance, innovativeness, service quality, customer relationships, and others. Key antecedents and mediators and moderators were also identified. Results of the co-citation analysis shows that the literature contributing to hotel goal orientation knowledge focuses on cognitive and motivational processes; international environment; customer orientation and organizational performance; organizational learning and innovation; and entrepreneurship and competitive advantage. The study also identifies current knowledge gaps that can serve as future research directions by comparing with previous literature reviews. Hotel managers can use this information to develop policies that promote employees’ goal orientation and improve organizational competitiveness.

ABSTRACT This study investigates whether hotels’ environmental and organizational performance is improved through green entrepreneurship, innovation, and managerial environmental concern. Through an online survey questionnaire, 271 responses were collected from hotel employees. The collected data were analyzed using PLS-SEM. The results suggest that green entrepreneurship orientation (GEO) has a direct and significant impact on environmental performance (EP) and organizational performance (OP). In addition, green innovation (GI) mediated the relationship between GEO, EP, and OP. Furthermore, when green innovation is used, managerial environmental concern (MEC) leads to higher environmental performance. However, its impact on GI and OP relationship was not significant. The present study offers important implications for hotels and service industries as it demonstrates the significance and role of green entrepreneurship, green innovation, and managerial environmental concern in improving performance in the hotel industry. 这项研究探讨了酒店的环境和组织绩效是否通过绿色创业、创新和管理层的环境关注得到了改善。通过在线调查问卷,收集了271份来自酒店员工的回答。收集到的数据使用PLS-SEM进行分析。结果表明,绿色创业导向(GEO)对环境绩效(EP)和组织绩效(OP)有直接和显著的影响。此外,绿色创新(GI)在GEO、EP和OP之间起到了中介作用。此外,当使用绿色创新时,管理层的环境关注(MEC)会提高环境绩效。然而,它对GI和OP关系的影响并不显著。本研究为酒店和服务行业提供了重要的启示,因为它展示了绿色创业、绿色创新和管理层的环境关注在提高酒店行业绩效中的重要性和作用。

Abstract The study examines seven key dimensions of online customer engagement behaviour and uses these to build ideal and baseline profiles. This ensures verbal and statistical correspondence. This approach allows identification of critical customer engagement behaviour to invest in and which one to invest in for maintenance. The study finds that deviating from the critical behaviours has negative implications for the spreading of positive word of mouth and brand loyalty. The findings and the methodological procedures are of interest to hospitality managers and academics. Data for the study was obtained from 326 customers at various hotels in Mauritius. The configural conceptual framework was tested using profile deviation to assure verbal and statistical correspondence leading to clear actionable recommendations for managers. The analysis goes beyond the approach in extant research by examining both the global and disaggregated impacts on PWOM and brand loyalty. The theoretical and managerial implications of the study are further discussed.

ABSTRACT Drones in food delivery (DFD) have been getting significant attention in recent years owing to their ability to deliver food quickly without being affected by traffic, enhancing business practices. Therefore, this study attempts to understand consumer desires and intentions to adopt DFD in the shed of behavioral reasoning theory. The proposed framework was examined using data from 394 DFD users via an online survey. The findings established that perceived environmental effectiveness impacts reasons for, reasons against, and desire. The reason for adoption positively influences desire and intention. In contrast, reasons against adoption negatively affect intention. Furthermore, we found that personal innovativeness in technology moderates the association between the reason for and intention. The tradition barrier also moderates the association between reason against and desire for DFD. Consequently, DFD platforms should resolve consumers’ concerns and conduct awareness programs to promote the potential benefits of drone deliveries to attract consumers.

ABSTRACT Employing conservation of resources (CoR) theory, we tested the mediating effect of employees’ emotional energy in the connection between transformational leadership style (TFL) and subordinates’ job performance. Additionally, drawing on self-concept theory, the moderating effect of meaningful work in the association between emotional energy and job performance was tested. Data collection (N = 546) was conducted in 72 hotels in Bangladesh using convenience sampling. SmartPLS was used for data analysis. TFL was positively associated with emotional energy, and emotional energy was the underlying mechanism between TFL and job performance. Meaningful work was the significant moderator strengthening the association between emotional energy and job performance. By explaining the mediating and moderating role of emotional energy and meaningful work, the findings contribute to the literature on CoR theory, TFL, job performance, self-concept theory, and hospitality. Recruiting employees who are more emotionally energized and alive, along with leadership practices and generating meaningful work, is imperative.

ABSTRACT Recently the hotel industry has been facing immense pressure from several stakeholders, including the government, society, and consumers, to reduce the adverse impact of their activities on the environment. To respond to this pressure, hotels have started implementing various strategies to mitigate their detrimental environmental impact, and one of the strategies is to boost consumers’ green behavior. However, there is limited knowledge about the decision-making process behind consumers’ green behavior in hotels. Hence, this study aims to provide new insights and fill this critical research gap by exploring why and how hotels’ perceived Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives influence consumers’ green behavior. To achieve this objective, the study investigates the mediating role of consumer engagement and positive emotions and the moderating role of altruistic values on the relationship between CSR and consumer engagement and positive emotions. Data is collected through a structured survey of hotel consumers in Pakistan. The results show that consumers’ positive emotions and engagement mediate the effect of hotels’ perceived CSR initiatives on consumers’ green behavior. Moreover, the study confirms that altruistic values moderate the relationship between CSR, positive emotions, and consumer engagement. Theoretical and managerial implications are also discussed at the end of the paper.

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.

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.","PeriodicalId":47995,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hospitality Marketing & Management","volume":"32 1","pages":"1048 - 1076"},"PeriodicalIF":12.5,"publicationDate":"2023-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46186084","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 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.
