Simulated empathy for vulnerability-centered tourism
Unveiling the impact of blockchain affordances on knowledge hiding: A three-wave cross-cultural study
Purpose This study examines the influence of blockchain affordances – transparency, traceability and immutability – on perceptions of fairness and their role in mitigating knowledge hiding in organizations. Design/methodology/approach Drawing on affordance theory, we develop and test a model using three-wave survey data from employees in the United States and China, representing culturally and economically distinct contexts. Findings The results …

Generative Artificial Intelligence in the Hospitality and Tourism Industry: Developing a Framework for Future Research
Generative artificial intelligence (GAI) offers important opportunities for the hospitality and tourism (HT) industry in the context of operations, design, marketing, destination management, human resources, revenue management, accounting and finance, strategic management, and beyond. However, the implementation of GAI in HT contexts comes with ethical, legal, social, and economic considerations that require careful reflection by HT firms. The pu…
How does obsolescence risk influence consumer resistance to smartwatches
Purpose Due to advances in both software and hardware, obsolescence risk refers to the fear that a product will soon become obsolete, which can be very high for technological products such as smartwatches or smartphones. Drawing on the perceived risk theory and innovation resistance, this study examines the effects of different obsolescence risks on consumer resistance to smartwatches. Design/methodology/approach A sequential explanatory approach…
Bridging the adoption gap for cryptocurrencies: Understanding the Affordances That Impact Approach–avoidance Behavior for Potential Users and Continuation Usage for Actual Users
Purpose With the rise of cryptocurrency and its influence on the financial industry, this paper aims to explore cryptocurrency affordances that lead to approach–avoidance behavioral intentions for non-users (potential) and the intention to continue use for users (actual), drawing upon affordance theory and chasm theory. Design/methodology/approach The authors collected data from 480 potential and actual users in Germany and used maximum likelihoo…
The implications of generative artificial intelligence in academic research and higher education in tourism and hospitality
The purpose of this study is to critically review the effect of generative artificial intelligence (GAI) tools on higher education and research in the tourism and hospitality (TH) field. This manuscript identifies capabilities and implications of these GAI applications through a theoretical lens. GAI adoption in TH education can facilitate personalized learning experiences, enhance the technological competence of students, and foster a more diver…
A holistic analysis towards understanding consumer perceptions of virtual reality devices in the post-adoption phase
Despite gaining consumer momentum and interest of Virtual Reality (VR) in the consumer marketplace, the literature has lagged in exploring the continuance usage behaviour and factors associated with the post-adoption. To build on this, the current research seeks to identify factors that support the continuance usage of current VR users. To examine this, we employ a mixed-method approach. In Study 1, we initially gathered a total of 3,205 actual p…
