PurposeThis study aimed to bibliometrically and visually analyze and review hospitality and tourism marketing studies published from 2000–2020.Design/methodology/approachA total of 3,942 articles collected from the databases of Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) and Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-E) in the Web of Science (WoS) along with their references were used for analyses. The bibliometric software HistCiteTM and literature measurement visualization tools, VOSviewer and CiteSpace, were employed to analyze the selected articles.FindingsThe results of the study demonstrated top influential scholars and institutions, intellectual structure and emerging trends of the study topics, and future research opportunities in the field of hospitality and tourism marketing.Research limitations/implicationsFirst, academic influence of a scholar was evaluated by citations of his/her publications, which did not take the order of authorship into consideration. Second, this study was restricted to the English language journals. Third, other types of published documents related to the studied field such as review papers were not considered by this research.Originality/valueIn comparison to traditional qualitative analysis such as content analysis, bibliometric analysis is a more objective approach to vividly demonstrate trends and performance of a research field, offers unique insights for its advancement with wider inclusiveness of a larger amount of data.
This study aims to test the moderating effects of home health care, home-help service, and older adults’ attitudes toward aging on the relationship between social support and life satisfaction among Chinese older adults. The study used a sample of 5,578 Chinese home-dwelling older adults. Multiple linear regression analyses were performed to test the hypothesized effects along with gender and Hukou type differences. The results show that home health care significantly buffers the impact of social support on life satisfaction, and this buffering effect remains same across gender groups and Hukou groups. The findings of the study provide unique and contemporary theoretical and practical implications.
The paper aims to present a comprehensive analysis of the progress, hotspots, and trends of research in the study of epidemics and public opinion. Using CiteSpace as a research tool, this study focuses on 102 relevant literature on epidemics and public opinion published between 2013 and 2023 in the core database of Web of Science. Drawing on various data such as the annual number of publications, journal sources, authors, research institutions, and keywords, this paper constructs knowledge maps to provide an in-depth analysis of the research trends and developmental directions in the field of study over the past decade. The research findings indicate that the field of study has undergone three phases, namely exploration, outbreak, and retracement. The research hotspots in this field of study mainly focus on social media, epidemics model, media, public health, sentiment analysis, Twitter, behavior, and communication. Additionally, the research highlights that online public opinion is an essential trend for future exploration and study in this field.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
