    Yuxuan Liu, Rupam Konar et al.ARTICLEJournal of China Tourism Research2025References: 10

    Cultural heritage distinguishes itself from other tourist attractions because of its exceptional universal value, and empowerment plays a crucial role in advancing sustainable tourism development. In this context, this study aims to explore the direct and indirect relationships among residents’ cultural attitudes, community empowerment, their perceptions of sustainable cultural heritage tourism, and their support for such tourism.

  • Servant leadership and the innovative service behaviours of hotel employees

    Open AccessJingxi Liu, Rupam Konar et al.ARTICLETourism Recreation Research2025References: 102

    Using social cognitive theory (SCT) as the theoretical foundation, this study proposes a conceptual model to examine the relationship between servant leadership and service innovative behaviour (SIB) of frontline employees in the hotel industry through an analysis of the dual mediation of intrinsic and extrinsic motivations. 350 paired responses were collected from frontline employees and their supervisors working in chain hotels in Shenzhen, Chi…

Challenging the direct applicability of organisational justice theory, this study proposes and tests a trust-mediated model in which algorithmic opacity shifts fairness judg…

  • Smart hotel in the eyes of the silver

    Zhuoma Yan, Kandappan Balasubramanian et al.

    Numerous studies have highlighted the behavioural intention of AI and robotics in the hospitality industry. Nevertheless, the impact of smart hotels on tourists’ willingness has been underexplored. Moreover, a lack of awareness exists of the attitude and behavioural intention of silver tourists towards smart hotels. Hence, the current study addresses the gap by investigating the antecedent factors of behavioural intention among silver tourists to…

  • From transaction to transformation

    Kevin Fuchs, Dongqi Shi et al.

    Research on sustainable consumption remains fragmented, treating hedonic/utilitarian and ethical/environmental values as separate drivers of loyalty. This siloed view inadequately explains commitment in hybrid contexts such as green hotels, which are both a service experience and an ethical act. This study proposes the Dual-Value Internalization Model, integrating the Stimulus–Organism–Response (S-O-R) framework and Involvement–Commitment Theory …
