“…In addition, word-ofmouth behaviour, feedback behaviour, task participation and customer habit are other outcomes of experiencing flow with CMEs (e.g., Carlson et al, 2017;Gao et al, 2017;Goel et al, 2013;Tokunaga, 2013). An analysis of the literature shows that flow directly leads to customers' behaviours and intentions (e.g., Jeon, Ok, et al, 2018;Kim & Hall, 2019;Yang et al, 2018) or indirectly through the impact on customers' affect and cognition (e.g., Chen, Hsu, et al, 2018;Guo et al, 2016;Hooker et al, 2019). For example, believe that flow influences consumers' emotional responses towards the website, which is considered as customer's affect, and thereafter, behavioural intention.…”

Flow has been regarded as an important phenomenon for understanding and delivering compelling experiences to consumers when using computer‐mediated services. Despite the importance of flow in the delivery of computer‐mediated services in computer‐mediated environments, little attention has been devoted to evaluating the status of research and consolidating the findings in the literature. As there is an ongoing debate, concerning the nature of flow, its structure, antecedents and consequences in computer‐mediated environments, the need to understand the literature on flow in these environments becomes more relevant. This study synthesizes the flow literature in computer‐mediated environments by systematically reviewing 137 peer‐reviewed journal articles published across 23 years. We showcase the current state of flow literature and provide (a) general knowledge, (b) methodological and (c) research model structural information of published studies (structure, antecedents and consequences of flow). The review concludes with identification of current gaps, future research directions and their managerial implications in computer‐mediated environments.

“…Plog's allocentric and psychocentric model suggests that travel preferences differ according to the individual tourist's desires. His model of typologies classifies tourists into allocentric (adventurous: adventure-seeking, preferring the exotic), psychocentric (dependable: safety-seeking, preferring the familiar), and mid-centric tourists (in between these two polar types; Jeon, Ok, & Choi, 2018;Plog, 1974Plog, , 2001Smith, 1990).…”

This study aims to identify the motivations of people travelling to North Korea, and to determine the effects these have on the travel decision‐making process. An on‐site survey was conducted with Chinese tourists in Dandong, China. The results of an exploratory factor analysis identified four motivation factors: red (communist identity), uniqueness, convenience, and escape. The results suggest that motivations for tourism to North Korea have at least a partial influence on attitudes. “Uniqueness” has the greatest impact on tourist attitudes, implying that the most powerful motive stimulating Chinese tourists to North Korea is their “curiosity” about that isolated society.

“…At high levels of elaboration, imagery processing enables tourists to form consumption vision (Walters et al, 2007), to experience feelings of being transported to another place (Hu et al, 2014) and to immerse themselves in imagination and fantasy (Laing & Crouch, 2009). Engaging in high-elaboration imagery processing is one pathway to flow experiences (Jeon, Ok, & Choi, 2017;Mollen & Wilson, 2010 Recollection of personal events that were experienced at a specific moment in time & within a particular context (Kim & Jang, 2016, p. 323)…”
