Cybersickness in metaverse travel
While the Metaverse promises transformative tourism experiences, the physiological challenge of cybersickness presents a significant barrier to inclusive adoption. This conceptual paper defines cybersickness in the Metaverse as a condition integrated into the virtual tourism experience itself, operating through locomotion, immersion duration, and perceived motion, rather than a transit issue. We develop a theoretical framework, comprising an Affo…
Discursively negotiating AI
To date, users have not merely interacted with large language model (LLM)-based chatbots. Notably, they collectively discussed about them, flooding the online information ecosystem with a sheer volume of social media posts about LLM-based chatbots. Despite research on users' reception of this equivocal technology is on the rise, it is mainly rooted in positivist and functionalist paradigms, leaving a finer-grained understanding of how early adopt…
Optimizing organisational value
This paper aims to create a harmoniously blended thematic conceptual framework that incorporates project governance principles, built upon insights obtained from previous academic studies. This framework is positioned to offer significant benefits to the organisation by improving operational efficiency and aligning with strategic objectives. The authors adopted a qualitative research approach to analyse the key literature on the paper’s theme. Th…
Covid-19 vaccine confidence and tourism at the early stage of a voluntary mass vaccination campaign
Restarting the mass tourism industry relies on the success of the COVID-19 vaccination campaign which requires individuals' voluntary participation to reduce health risks to hosts and visitors. This study identifies segments of Italian residents based on vaccine confidence at the early stage of a voluntary mass vaccination program. Using a survey held with 3,893 Italian residents, two COVID-19 vaccine confidence clusters were identified. These cl…
Travel desire over intention in pandemic times
Travel Intention was critically complicated by numerous factors linked to COVID-19. • We empirically validate Travel Intention, Craving and Vaccine Confidence. • Travel Intention, unlike Travel Craving, has no relationship with Vaccine Confidence. • We discuss implications for theory and marketing and communication strategies
The Rohingya refugee crisis in Bangladesh
Since August 2017, more than 700,000 Rohingya have sought refuge in Bangladesh from neighbouring Myanmar, resulting in an unprecedented humanitarian crisis. A significant endeavour is taking place involving various humanitarian actors for the provision and overall management of the humanitarian activities in Rohingya refugee camps. The article studies the configuration and evolution of the humanitarian operations with the aim of identifying the e…

A latent class approach to examining migrant family travel behavior

An examination of DMO network identity using Exponential Random Graph Models
Destination eWOM
The purpose of this paper is to develop a framework that describes the characteristics and the underlying drivers of publically shared electronic word-of-mouth (eWOM) for destinations. Tweets about a destination were collected while the destination hosted a hallmark event over a 5-year period (2011–2015). In each year, interactions on Twitter were analysed using macro and meso-level social network analysis to identify the network structure and hu…
The burden of care
Parenting and family support are key prevention and intervention strategies for improving outcomes for children and families affected by parental drug misuse. However, little is known about the delivery of parenting support for drug-dependent parents, particularly within universal healthcare services. This study aimed to explore the way healthcare practitioners engage with this challenging agenda. Four multidisciplinary focus groups involving a p…

International festivals as experience production systems
Harwell Radiocarbon Measurements VIII
Following Harwell Measurements VI (Walker & Otlet 1988) this is the second of the series of lists of English archaeological dates commissioned for measurement by the Historic Buildings and Monuments Commission for England and Wales within prescribed contractual periods. This list, containing 176 dates, refers to the period, April 1986 to March 1987, and results are reported irrespective of whether the associated projects are completed or ongoing
