AI-mediated Storytelling, Authenticity, Engagement and Destination Evangelism
Given the rapid diffusion and adoption of AI-driven tools across numerous contexts, including tourism marketing, AI-based storytelling has quickly spread in tourism-related practices and communications. However, the theoretical understanding of its strategic communication and meaning construction remains underdeveloped. The current literature has been highly instrumental, prioritising viewpoints based on efficiency, scalability and personalisatio…
The nexus between spiritual intelligence and consumer behaviour in the food sector
Purpose This study aims to explore how spiritual intelligence (SQ) shapes consumer perceptions, experiences and behaviours toward traditional food in Oman. Design/methodology/approach Using a qualitative approach, data were gathered, employing semi-structured interviews, and analysed through thematic analysis to uncover recurring patterns and themes. Findings The findings depicted different themes illuminating the profound role SQ plays in influe…
Influencers of environmentally responsible behaviour in tourism destinations
In recent decades, environmentally responsible behaviour (ERB) has attracted significant attention across different disciplines. However, empirical studies investigating the key drivers of ERB within tourism destinations remain scarce in emerging countries settings. This gap is especially clear in under-researched regions such as Oman, where understanding the factors influencing ERB is crucial for promoting sustainable tourism development. As a r…
Unveiling consumer behaviour toward traditional food
Purpose This study builds on the value-attitude-behaviour theory to explore the relationships between customer value, social marketing (SM), attitude, word-of-mouth (WoM) and behaviour toward traditional food consumption in Oman. Design/methodology/approach A quantitative methodology was employed. Data were gathered through a survey of 493 people who had sampled Omani traditional cuisine. The data were evaluated via partial least squares structur…
Beyond conventional adoption
Guided by the self-regulation theory and the technology acceptance model, this study tests the major drivers of AI facilitators’ usage in higher education (HE) by incorporating self-regulation, academic buoyancy, trust, and agentic engagement to predict the continuance usage intention of AI facilitators. Primary data were gathered from HE students in Oman. Employing PLS-SEM, the results revealed that self-regulation and academic buoyancy positive…
Shifts in Knowledge Sharing and Creativity for Business Tourism
"In the contemporary landscape, the significance of business tourism has surged, drawing substantial attention from researchers in the realms of social and management sciences. Defined as an individual's travel outside their local town for business opportunities, transactions, enjoyment, and learning, business tourism has undergone notable shifts, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. The book titled Shifts in Knowledge Sharing and Cre…
Could mindfulness diminish mental health disorders? The serial mediating role of self-compassion and psychological well-being
An integrative model of the key factors determining consumer behaviour towards street food
Purpose This study examines how street food affects urban culture, economics and sustainable tourism. It examines how street food stands, as a cultural and economic phenomenon, influence consumer behaviour and local traditions, particularly in Oman’s evolving street food scene. Design/methodology/approach Adopting a quantitative research design, this study utilises an integrated model combining the Stimulus-Organism-Response (S-O-R) and Attitude-…
Drivers of generative AI adoption in higher education through the lens of the Theory of Planned Behaviour
Drawing on the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB), this study investigates the relationship between the perceived benefits, strengths, weaknesses, and risks of generative AI (GenAI) tools and the fundamental factors of the TPB model (i.e., attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioural control). The study also investigates the structural association between the TPB variables and intention to use GenAI tools, and how the latter might affect …
Workplace bullying, psychological distress, and work engagement in the hospitality industry
The present study investigates the structural associations between workplace bullying, employee psychological distress, and work engagement within the hospitality setting. It also evaluates the moderating impact of self- compassion on the direct path between workplace bullying and employee psychological distress. Employing a quantitative approach, PLS-SEM has been applied to analyse the data, collected by survey, from full-time employees at 2-sta…
Game of algorithms
Purpose The paper aims to evaluate the ways ChatGPT is going to disrupt tourism education and research. Design/methodology/approach This is a conceptual paper. Findings ChatGPT has the potential to revolutionize tourism education and research because it can do what students and researchers should do, namely, generate text (assignments and research papers). Universities will need to reevaluate their teaching and assessment strategies and incorpora…
Emotional Intelligence Outcomes in Higher Education Institutions
The main outcomes of emotional intelligence (EMI) in the workplace have been researched in a variety of settings, however, few studies have focused on such consequences, particularly in the context of higher education institutions (HEIs). This research is therefore to empirically examine the impact of EMI on work-life balance, job insecurity, knowledge sharing behaviour, and workforce agility at HEIs. A total of 368 responses from academic staff …
Scientific Output of the European Journal of Tourism Research
This paper aims to analyse and visualise the scientific output of the European Journal of Tourism Research (EJTR) by employing a set of bibliometric metrics; including productive and impact measures, co-authorship analysis, co-citation analysis, and co-occurrence analysis. The collected and analyzed data involved 304 peer-reviewed articles published in the EJTR during the period from 2008 to 2020 within Scopus database. The results indicated that…
Mapping smart experiences in tourism
There has been a significant increase in the number of studies addressing smart experiences in the context of tourism (SET). Nevertheless, no previous work has systematically and critically analysed the literature on this subject. To fulfil this gap, this paper examines the evolution of SET as a research topic by mapping the scientific production on it. To this end, 84 papers published from 2011 to April 2019 were retrieved from Scopus. To map th…
