Purpose The purpose of the study is to examine the effect of value co-destruction on customer citizenship and negative electronic word of mouth (e-WOM) behaviors. In addition, the study aims to determine the mediating role of tourist citizenship between value co-destruction and negative e-WOM behaviors. Design/methodology/approach By using a convenience sampling method, data were collected from 704 customers, who purchased their touristic products through co-creation. The exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were applied to the data obtained to determine the factors that make up the dimensions in the research model. The partial least squares-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was used to evaluate the relationship in the research model proposed in the study. Findings The results of the study indicated that value co-destruction had an effect on customer citizenship behavior and negative e-WOM. While the helping behavior of customer citizenship had an effect on negative e-WOM, the advocacy behavior of customer citizenship had no effect on negative e-WOM. However, this study found only an indirect mediation effect of helping behavior in the relationship between value co-destruction and negative e-WOM. Research limitations/implications The research examined the antecedent behaviors that cause value co-destruction and the effects of these behaviors on the outcomes of the holiday experience. This information then was combined in a model and evaluated in a holistic framework. Theoretically, the research helps us understand the impact of value co-destruction behavior on citizenship behavior and on tourists’ negative e-WOM tendency. The research examines value co-destruction behavior and its effect on holiday-experience outcomes simultaneously. Practical implications The research provides a framework that tourism enterprises can use to produce and offer value-attributing services for their customers and to manage dysfunctional and disruptive business processes and behaviors to reduce value co-destruction. The research also provides a new way for practitioners in the tourism sector to understand and generalize the behavioral changes of tourists caused by value co-destruction during and after their experience. Originality/value The paper contributes to an understanding of value co-destruction antecedents and outputs from the customer perspective. Further, the research provides information to tourism businesses to effectively and efficiently manage the value co-creation process and prevent value co-destruction. The findings of the study will provide useful suggestions that will contribute to researchers and sectoral representatives.
Bu çalışmanın amacı, hedonik ve faydacı değerin tavsiye (ağızdan ağıza iletişim ve elektronik ağızdan ağıza iletişim) ve tekrar satın alma niyeti üzerindeki etkisini incelemektir. Bu amaçla havayolu uygulamalarını aktif olarak kullanan havayolu yolcularından veriler toplanmıştır. Kolayda örnekleme yöntemi kullanılarak havayolu uygulamalarını kullanan 122 yolcudan elde edilen verilere, araştırma modelinde boyutları oluşturan faktörlerin belirlenmesi için güvenirlik ve doğrulayıcı faktör analizi uygulanmıştır. Çalışmada önerilen araştırma modelindeki ilişkiler, Kısmi En Küçük Kareler Yapısal Eşitlik Modellemesi (KEKK-YEM) kullanılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonuçları hem hedonik değerin hem de faydacı değerin hava yolcularının tavsiye davranışları üzerinde olumlu etkisi olduğunu göstermiştir. Ancak, sadece faydacı değerin tekrar satın alma niyeti üzerinde pozitif anlamlı bir etkiye sahip olduğu, hedonik değerin ise tekrar satın alma niyeti üzerinde istatistiksel açıdan anlamlı bir etkisinin olmadığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
The purpose of the study is to reveal the effect of value co-creation within the scope of the DART model, which consists of Dialogue, Access, Risk Assessment, and Transparency on perceived service newness and loyalty. In addition, it is aimed to determine the mediating role of perceived service newness between value co-creation and passenger loyalty. For this purpose, the data collected by the online and convenience sampling method from the passengers who travel airlines. The data is subjected to reliability analysis and confirmatory factor analysis in order to discover the variables that make up the dimensions in the study model. The relationship in the study model is evaluated by using partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) via the SmartPLS 3.0 package program. The findings show that value cocreation has an impact on the perceived service newness and loyalty. This study found also mediating effect of perceived service newness in the relation between value co-creation and loyalty. The study contributed the understanding of value co-creation from the passenger perspective to the value co-creation literature by using the DART model. The study also provides theoretical and managerial contributions to manage the value co-creation process effectively and efficiently.
The identification of actual and potential customers opinions and sentiments before and after purchase shapes the services offered by airlines in the airline sector as well as in every sector. In this paper, a sentiment analysis is made by compiling Twitter users' comments related to air transport. Comments of users collected from API (Application Programming Interfaces) service provided by Twitter as with many social media applications and were taken from a Java based program on a regular basis between April-May 2016. Obtained 8672 user comments were decomposed as positive, notr and negative tags. Tags are collected in a tag cloud and results are analysed with Machine Learning Method and standardized and normalized Kernel Polinoms in SMO algorithm.
