Constructing the Other
This study examines how the construction of the Other evolves in Donald Trump’s right-wing populist discourse across his three U.S. presidential campaigns. Using a corpus-assisted Discourse-Historical Approach, it traces shifting targets of exclusion in campaign speeches and the discursive strategies through which they are constructed. Findings reveal three trajectories of othering: opposition to establishment elites in 2016 evolves into an anti-…
Persuasive pragmatics in US presidential campaign discourse
In this study, we compare the persuasive pragmatics of campaign speeches delivered by Donald Trump and Kamala Harris in key swing states during the 2024 US presidential election, with particular attention to peripheral-route processing within the Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM). Employing corpus-assisted methods and a four-dimensional framework — issue content, thematic focus, linguistic features, and rhetorical strategies — the study examines…
To free ride or contribute? The effects of enforced working from home on employees’ engagement in the corporate online forum
Purpose The COVID-19 pandemic fundamentally transformed workplace dynamics, compelling organizations to transition employees to work from home abruptly. Since corporate online forums played an important role as an online communication channel during the shift, this paper aimed to investigate the effect of enforced working from home (WFH) on employee engagement behaviors in such forums during COVID-19. Design/methodology/approach Leveraging the Wu…
Relational Compartmentalization
Segregation of social networks has been studied primarily at the macro level in disciplines such as sociology. The present research introduces the concept of relational compartmentalization to examine this phenomenon at the level of individual behavior through a cultural–psychological lens. Across two studies, we investigated relational compartmentalization using a mixed-methods approach and complementary measures: a novel behavioral paradigm and…
Holocene Aeolian Variability in Central Asia Inferred from Grain-Size End-Member Modeling of Sayram Lake Sediments
Arid Central Asia (ACA) is a major source of atmospheric dust in the Northern Hemisphere; however, the evolutionary models and driving mechanisms of Holocene aeolian activity in this region remain debated. Based on 13 reliable AMS 14C dates from the Sayram Lake SLM2009 sediment core, this study reconstructs the Holocene sequence in aeolian activity through end-member modeling analysis (EMMA). It evaluates its relationship with regional atmospheri…
Officially diagnosed as X”
This study examines how young netizens in post-pandemic China use novel diagnostic metaphors to articulate embodied distress and everyday critique. Focusing on the meme “officially diagnosed as X” on Xiaohongshu (RED), it draws on Critical Metaphor Analysis within a qualitatively driven mixed-methods framework. The analysis shows how mundane or absurd entities (e.g. fictional personas or food items) are reworked into self-diagnostic labels that m…

What enables the effects of transformative tourism experiences to persist? Insights from identity development theory
The effects of transformative tourism experiences (TTEs) are challenging to sustain. Existing studies lack a temporal perspective and fail to distinguish between TTEs’ short- and long-term effects. This study, grounded in identity development theory, introduced an integrated model examining how self-reflection, eudaimonic tendencies, self-efficacy, and habits can sustain TTEs’ influence. A survey of tourists who had experienced TTEs at least 66 d…
Political corporate social responsibility in tourism
Few studies have focused on how tourism enterprises fulfil their political corporate social responsibility (CSR). This study, set in China's rural revitalisation, employs an enterprise-community perspective to explore how state-owned tourism enterprises implement political CSR and promote rural revitalisation. The findings reveal that the family-nation sentiment of corporate village-based cadres serves as a key driver of political CSR at the micr…

Determinants of Wellness Tourists’ Destination Choice and Word-Of-Mouth Behaviors
Managing destination stigma in post-pandemic tourism
This study examines the impact of pandemic-related stigma on tourists’ support for destinations linked to COVID-19, using Wuhan as a case. Rooted in an evolutionary tourism paradigm, survey data from 421 Chinese respondents indicate that perceived disease infectability heightens stigma, reducing tourism solidarity but increasing ethnocentric support. Structural equation modeling shows that while solidarity fosters empathy, it doesn’t lead directl…

Wellness Tourism Attributes and Tourist Outcomes
Prior studies have identified the complexity involved in explaining the relationship between wellness tourism attributes and tourist behavior. This study investigated the configurational effects of 10 constructs in predicting the ambiguous area between overall satisfaction and destination behavioral loyalty. To achieve this, the study used a fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) and necessary condition analysis (NCA). The results of …

Influence of high-speed rail on tourist flow network in typical tourist cities
This study focused on the impact of high-speed rail construction on the structure of tourist flow networks in typical tourist cities. Through three consecutive questionnaire surveys and online surveys, using Gephi and GIS software to carry out a tracking study of Huangshan City. The results were as follows: (1) After high-speed rail opening and operation, the proportion of tourists within the range of 400–1200 km from the destination kept growing…
Cultural Tourists’ Satisfaction from a Leisure Experience Perspective
This study aims to examine cultural tourists’ leisure experience characteristics and their relationship with satisfaction. Using a sample of cultural tourists (n = 850) in the Huizhou Cultural and Ecological Protection Experimental Area (HCEPEA) collected via questionnaire surveys. Of the overall samples, 215 was used for scale development and the rest was used for structural model evaluation. The results showed that both the measurement and stru…
