The Path From Tourist Mindfulness to Storytelling
Despite the significant meaning‐making role of mindfulness in the tourist experience and storytelling as a powerful value generator for tourism services, limited research has been devoted to investigating the impact of mindfulness on tourists' storytelling behavior. Based on the Mindfulness‐to‐Meaning Theory (MMT), this study empirically tests the relationships among mindfulness, place authenticity, tourist engagement, and storytelling. PLS‐SEM m…
Future Space Tourists’ Motivations, Constraints, and Negotiation Strategies
Space tourists’ decision-making would be far more complicated than general tourism, but limited research has investigated the process. This research explored potential space tourists’ decision-making process, grounded in the constraint–effects–mitigation (CEM) model. Through in-depth interviews with 10 individuals who experienced extensive space tourism activities, the grounded theory approach revealed four underlying themes of motivations, const…
Check‐in significance
Interactions between service employees and customers at check‐in shape customers' first impressions and lead to their future behavioral intentions. Even though customer relationship management (CRM) relies heavily on the hospitality check‐in experience, research is scarce on its impacts and the moderating effect of loyalty membership programs. Based on the broaden‐and‐build theory, the current study examined customer check‐in significance associa…
Branding Co-Creation with Consumer-Generated Advertising
Of the social media tools available to brand managers, consumer-generated advertising (CGA) has attractive features combining consumer-generated content, social media advertising, and online interactive marketing campaigns. However, only a small number of customers actively participate in co-creation of CGA. Based on social presence theory and service-dominant logic conceptualization, we examined CGA observers, knowledgeable and attentive viewers…
The Reciprocal Role of Trust in Customer Value Co-Creation
The main purpose of this research was to investigate the reciprocal nature of trust in a service provider, established through consumer involvement in value co-creation. Grounded in service-dominant logic and social exchange theory, the study used an existing consumer-generated co-creation contest by a popular U.S.-based coffee-shop brand. When examining customer involvement with value co-creation (N = 510), the covariance-based structural equati…

Second homeowners hosting friends and relatives
Recent research has brought attention to the characteristics and behaviours of residents who host visitors in a destination. This research examines the role of non-resident second homeowners in hosting visiting friends and relatives (VFR) in a destination. The exploratory research expands the scope of research on hosts by examining second homeowners and their willingness to host VFR. The purpose of this study was to develop a willingness to host …

Alcohol Consumption and Leisure Participation
Healthy and rewarding recreation participation is often proposed as an alternative to alcohol use and abuse. Yet, alcohol consumption usually occurs in one's non-work time and drinkers anticipate that alcohol consumption will contribute to their relaxation and enjoyment. Little research has investigated the link between alcohol consumption and leisure participation. This study investigated the relationship between alcohol consumption and leisure …
