The aim of this paper is to reveal the influence of servicescape of hotel businesses on the emotional states and behavioural responses of guests. Data collected from 211 participants, was tested by using Regression Analysis to determine the interaction among identified variables (servicescape, emotional states and behavioural responses). It was found that the servicescape component had a positive effect on behavioural responses, and emotional states of guests played a mediating role between servicescape and behavioural response components. It is important to determine what kind of emotional states along with the influence of servicescape result in behavioural changes in hotels. Hence, determining the emotional states that individuals experience in hotels will make it possible to design a servicescape by considering those emotional states.

This study aims to examine any possible effects of servant leadership (SL) on psychological empowerment (PE) in terms of sub dimensionality. Implementing convenience sampling, 356 questionnaires were collected from five-star hotel employees in Antalya. The overall relationships were tested by conducting Pearson’s correlation analysis, and all constructs were subjected to the exploratory factor analysis (EFA). Later on, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was conducted in terms of providing support for dimensionality and confirmed convergent and discriminant validity via Amos. To test the hypothesized model, structural equation modeling was employed. The model showed that Agapao love has a substantial significant positive effect on the meaning sub-dimension of the PE, and the same effect was observed in the competence and impact sub-dimensions of the PE. Along with Agapao love, trust was also significant and had positive effects on PE sub-dimensions. Referring to our discussion in this paper, leaders should support their followers in terms of psychological empowerment and preferably closely interact with their subordinates as an expected leadership behavior in service enterprises. Besides, trustworthiness is a crucial cue for kitchen employees in terms of motivation, inspiration, and competence.
