Although many studies reveal the effects of social media on destination choice or image, scant research investigates viewers' dynamic psychological nature induced by social media sources and contents. This study aims to fill that gap by examining the interaction effects of sources and landmark types on viewers' emotional and behavioral responses within the realm of social media-induced tourism. Utilizing a 2 (source type: influencer vs. peer) x 2 (landmark type: heritage vs. iconic) x 4 (message repetition) mixed-subject factorial design, an online experiment was conducted with 700 Instagram users randomly assigned to different conditions. The findings showed that influencers' posts exert a significant influence on outcome variables compared to peers' posts. Specifically, viewers exhibited increased levels of benign envy and a greater intention to visit when viewing influencers' posts about iconic landmarks. Individuals with high fear of missing out showed a heightened intention to visit when seeing peers’ posts about heritage landmarks. Based on the findings, theoretical and managerial implications are discussed.
尽管许多研究揭示了社交媒体对目的地选择或形象的影响,但很少有研究调查社交媒体来源和内容所引发的观众动态心理。本研究旨在填补这一空白,在社交媒体诱导旅游的领域内,研究来源和地标类型对观众情感和行为反应的交互影响。研究采用 2(信息源类型:影响者 vs. 同行)x 2(地标类型:遗产 vs. 标志性)x 4(信息重复)混合被试因子设计,对 700 名 Instagram 用户进行了在线实验,随机分配到不同的条件下。研究结果表明,与同行的帖子相比,有影响力者的帖子对结果变量有显著影响。具体来说,当浏览者看到影响者发布的关于标志性地标的帖子时,会表现出更高的良性羡慕水平和更强的访问意愿。害怕错过的人在看到同行关于遗产地标的帖子时,会表现出更高的访问意愿。根据研究结果,讨论了理论和管理意义。

Artificial intelligence (AI) can generate high-quality destination images to attract prospective visitors. The perceived authenticity of these images can determine the extent to which tourists will patronize a destination. This study proposes the concept of AI-thenticity defined indexically as the originality of artificial intelligence-generated content and iconically as how accurately and faithfully artificial intelligence-generated content reproduces the original. Experimental research design is employed to explore the relationships between AI- versus human-made (labelled and non-labelled) destination photos, perceived authenticity, trust, congruence, and patronage intentions. The results show that perceived authenticity of AI-generated images positively influences trust, and patronage intentions. Notably, congruence between AI-generated images and tourists mediates the relationship between AI-thenticity and patronage intentions. Although perceived authenticity is more pronounced for human-generated images, perceived authenticity of AI-generated content is significant, especially if it is non-labelled. Theoretically, the study demonstrates how AI-thenticity can aid in understanding the concept of authenticity in a rapidly digitizing world. Practically, the study shows the potential of AI for destination management and marketing.

The aim of this research is to analyse local government tourism officer satisfaction with a smart destination model using the Kano method. A causal model is proposed with four antecedent variables of tourism officer satisfaction with the smart destination model: perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, trust in and challenges of the model. The smart destination model applied to a smart destination network in the Valencian Community (Spain) is taken as a case study. The results show that trust, ease of use and challenges have a linear relationship with satisfaction, while usefulness has a non-linear relationship. However, structural equation modelling analysis shows that only trust in the model significantly influences local government tourism officer satisfaction with the model.

Informed by political consumerism theory and employing a multi-case approach, this study examines the different factors influencing tourists' decisions to participate in or abstain from destination boycotts. Through an analysis of online narratives, the study identifies and discusses key manifestations of ethical dilemmas in tourists' boycott decisions, reflecting both the transformative potential of boycotts and doubts about their effectiveness. The findings indicate that participation in boycotts is driven by perceived egregiousness, the empowerment of change through tourism, and ethical and moral considerations. Conversely, rejection of boycotts often stems from the contentious nature of certain boycotts, skepticism about their effectiveness, concerns about local welfare, the desire to avoid collective punishment, and the double standard dilemma. By introducing the concept of ‘politicized tourism consumerism’, this study highlights tourism's potential to drive social change and offers novel theoretical insights into tourists' politicized tourism practices and their implications. These insights can help tourism stakeholders, including policymakers and businesses, develop strategies to address ethical concerns and boycott impacts, leading to more ethical and responsible tourism.

This paper analyses the spatial effects on the production efficiency of P2P accommodation units as an indication of their performance. The empirical analysis undertaken is based on data for the sharing accommodation industry in the Canary Islands (Spain) in the period January 2019–September 2020 (monthly data). In a first stage, order-m robust nonparametric frontier analysis is used to detect superefficient, fully efficient and inefficient listings. The results show that the sharing economy industry was operating at close to full efficiency, and that the annual average score in this respect remained largely constant for some types of accommodation. In the second stage of the analysis, an econometric spatial model approach is applied to identify the spatial drivers of efficiency. The main findings are that negative competition effects prevail over positive agglomeration effects and that spatial professionalization negatively influences listing efficiency. The theoretical and management implications of these findings are discussed.

Mega sporting events can generate significant impacts on the host destinations. The Tokyo 2020 Olympics (“Tokyo 2020” hereafter) was a unique case as the pandemic minimized the impact of international tourism. In this situation, how could residents' perceived event impacts be associated with support intention for future event hosting? The purpose of this study is to examine the relationships between event impact perceptions of Tokyo 2020, residents' social well-being, and their support toward future event hosting. Three-wave time-lagged data were gathered from residents in Japan (T1 = approximately one month prior to the event; T2 = immediately after the event; and T3 = four months after the event; N = 296). The results of the structural equation model showed that no event impact perceptions were directly associated with residents' support, measured four months after the event. However, positive economic and environmental impacts (T1) indirectly via residents' social well-being (T2) influenced their support for future event hosting (T3). The findings highlighted that the event impact perceptions and residents' support for event hosting can be mediated by temporarily activated social well-being. The findings are particularly important when people have difficulties finding connections to society (i.e., the pandemic in this study). A sense of social well-being is the key to enhancing residents’ support for future event hosting.

This paper introduces a framework for analyzing and interpreting the visual content of tourism landscapes, particularly focusing on the comparative representation of these landscapes by destination management organizations (DMOs) in the cross-border context of Usedom Island, shared by Poland and Germany. Drawing on a literature review and employing visual content analysis, this study categorizes elements of tourism landscapes as depicted in DMO-produced photographs, highlighting the differences in how these landscapes are presented to potential visitors by Polish and German DMOs. Key findings reveal significant disparities in the portrayal of cultural and natural heritage, suggesting divergent marketing strategies that may influence tourists’ perceptions and destination choices. This research not only contributes to the theoretical discourse on destination imaging and branding but also offers practical insights for DMOs in leveraging landscape elements effectively.

As the number of protected areas increases in a country, there is a need for entrepreneurial action to maximize the environmental and economic benefits of nature-based tourism and to complement government funding. Establishing an entrance fee to visit these protected areas could be a good option to ensure long-term economic sustainability. Therefore, using Herzberg's theory of motivation-hygiene and the fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis methodology (fsQCA) as a valid theoretical framework, this study aims to analyze the combined effects of both motivating and hygiene variables which lead to the absence of willingness to pay (WTP) an entrance fee to visit a national park. The findings indicate that motivating factors, such as prior visits to other national parks, the inclination to visit a national park, or a strong commitment to environmental issues, were more important than hygiene factors, such as value for money and overall satisfaction with the visit. Managerial implications and directions for future studies are also discussed.

Rural tourism is a form of landscape conservation and sustainable development that can help respond to the challenges of rural areas. Although growing rural tourism has emerged with a collective approach, managed mainly by local communities, more attention needs to be paid to how the beneficiaries, i.e., tourists, are involved in such initiatives. This study explores the participation of tourists in governance processes in the framework of collaborative governance and perceived value. The study employs a systematic literature review using the PRISMA protocol and VOSviewer software. The results indicate a growing interest in collaborative governance-based rural tourism research, with Spain and China as significant contributors. The importance of stakeholder participation is highlighted, although mechanisms for creating deliberative spaces or decision-making processes remain to be indicated. The difficulty of actively involving tourists in these processes is acknowledged, attributing this to the transitory nature of tourism. Finally, the study argues for more inclusive and participatory approaches to achieve sustainable outcomes in rural tourism initiatives.
