Establishing an agenda for innovation research in tourism and hospitality
This study establishes an agenda for research on innovation in tourism and hospitality (T&H) through a systematic comparison of studies on innovation in the T&H literature with mainstream management literature. It reveals that the management literature has a greater focus on the firm itself. Accordingly, T&H firms – and future innovation studies in this sector – need to place a greater emphasis on organizational performance rather than concentrat…
Rethinking authenticity in the rise of extended reality technologies in tourism
While authenticity is central to tourism experiences, the emergence of extended reality (XR) is reshaping how authenticity is produced, perceived, and enacted. This study synthesises how authenticity is conceptualised and operationalised in XR-enabled tourism and assesses the feasibility and applicability of different authenticity perspectives across XR environments. Drawing on 63 studies identified through systematic searches, it combines biblio…
From protection to benefits
Over the past decade, research on children's tourism experiences has grown, focusing on research with children through innovative methods. However, there has been limited critical reflection on how to use these methods effectively and ethically, particularly in balancing child protection with providing benefits. This study discusses how Self-Determination Theory is applied in an empirical investigation of children's learning experiences in family…
Tourism Risk Perception and Travel Behavioural Intention in the ‘New Normal’ World
Following the turbulences caused by the Covid‐19 pandemic, the tourism industry continues to be challenged by post‐pandemic uncertainties. This study sought to explore travel risk perceptions and adaptive behavioural intention among Australian Generations Y and Z in the ‘new normal’. To achieve this, a conceptual framework was developed, integrating the Theory of Planned Behaviour, Protection Motivation Theory, and Risk‐as‐Feelings Theory, and wa…
Exploring the Travel Experience of Chinese Solo Female Travelers Through a Gender and Cultural Lens
Due to exponential growth across the globe, solo female travel is emerging as a popular area of research and scholarship. Existing studies on the phenomenon have had focus on the characteristics of solo female travelers, providing a basic descriptive understanding of motivations and outcomes. Limited research has examined how gender and culture determine, shape and reinforce solo female travel experiences. To explore the intersection between cult…
Towards a typology of virtual events
Despite the mounting prominence of COVID-induced virtual substitutes to face-to-face events, the boundaries and terminology between different types of virtual events have not been clearly defined. Theoretical misconceptions exist surrounding the diffusion of virtual reality and existing virtual events into the tourism, hospitality and events sectors, with conceptual ambiguity generating contention. Consequently, this paper develops a typology of …

Proposing a systematic approach for integrating traditional research methods into machine learning in text analytics in tourism and hospitality
This paper argues that the analysis of vast amounts of user-generated content, which are currently dominated by text analytics and machine learning, need more methodical incorporation of reliable traditional methodologies to facilitate deeper understanding of concepts and theory building. Specifically, a systematic approach that integrates machine learning and traditional research methods is needed to overcome inherent drawbacks of both approache…
Exploring the multi-dimensionality of authenticity in dining experiences using online reviews
Producing authenticity in restaurant experiences
In the context of the advent of the experience economy, conceptualisations of authenticity are often both perplexing and uncertain. This paper argues for a nuanced understanding of the multi-dimensional nature of authenticity of restaurant experiences from the production perspective. It does this by proposing a framework to produce authenticity using the interrelationships of three fundamental elements of a restaurant experience, the Consumer, th…
