“…Therefore, it can be claimed that the current research findings have contributed to a gap that exists in the literature. When potential tourists want to experience the desirable activities they have seen in their surroundings, they may first need to have an interest in and understand the relevance of the experiment (Dedeoğlu, 2016). For this reason, it should be first determined which factors may influence the INPS.…”

“…The first part investigates the importance attached to social media sharing, destination brand awareness, COI image, and destination quality. Considering the study of Dedeoğlu (2016) and Dedeoglu (2019), the importance attached to social media sharing scale was examined under two dimensions, with importance attached to both participant and nonparticipant sharing. Following the study of Ferns and Walls (2012), five items were adapted for the destination brand awareness scale.…”

This study examines the effect of social media sharing on tourism destination brand awareness and destination natural and service quality and also examines the moderating roles of country of origin (COI; macro and micro) image on destination natural and service quality. Data were collected from 568 domestic and international tourists who have visited Alanya, Turkey. Relationships in the study were examined through structural equation modeling. As one of the components of social media sharing, participant sharing positively affects destination brand awareness, whereas any significant effect of nonparticipant sharing on destination brand awareness was not found. Destination brand awareness positively influences tourist perceptions of both destination service quality and destination natural quality. COI image moderates most of the relationships.

“…The present research included certain limitations that provide future study opportunities. Firstly, travelers' decision formation and behaviors can differ based on personality traits (e.g., extroversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, openness to experience) [69,70]. Similarly, it is conceivable that volunteer tourists' behaviors can be different across personality traits.…”

Tourism and Altruistic Intention: Volunteer Tourism Development and Self-Interested Value

2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Volunteer tourism is indisputably an emerging trend in the tourism industry across the globe. Yet, little is known about the altruistic behavior of volunteer travelers. To fill this void, this research explores the convoluted relationships among memorable experience, awareness of problem, social norm, psychological resilience, personal norm, and self-interested value in driving altruistic intention. A field survey was conducted with a quantitative approach. The result reveals that psychological resilience and personal norm are direct determinants of altruistic intention while mediating the influence of awareness of problem and social norm on intention. In addition, memorable experience along with awareness of problem significantly induced volunteer travelers’ psychological resilience. Moreover, the test for metric invariance shows that the relationships between psychological resilience, personal norm, and altruistic intention are under the significant influence of volunteer travelers’ self-interested value. Overall, the variance in altruistic intention for volunteer tourism is satisfactorily explained by our suggested theoretical framework.

“…Neuroticism is considered to be stable and enduring over time and across various situations, including tourism contexts (Costa & McCrae, 1992a; Huang, Gursoy, & Xu, 2014; Jani, Jang, & Hwang, 2013). Thus, some studies in this domain have used neuroticism as a factor affecting the way tourists emotionally respond to different environments (Dedeoğlu, Okumus, Yi, & Jin, 2019; Hajibaba, Boztuğ, & Dolnicar, 2016; Huang et al, 2014;Tong, 2010; Tong & Tay, 2011). Specifically, Ma et al (2013) indicate that the strength and magnitude of emotional responses also depend on the way tourists interact with an event intellectually (i.e., inspiring experience).…”

“…As delight and transcendence are the results of the subjective cognitive appraisal of a tourist experience (i.e., inspiration), they are more likely to be contingent on tourists' personality trait of neuroticism (Diener et al, 2003; Grant & Langan‐Fox, 2006; Penley & Tomaka, 2002). Neuroticism has been investigated as both direct determinant (e.g., Huang et al, 2014) and boundary condition (e.g., Dedeoğlu et al, 2019) of tourists' responses (e.g., emotional responses) to the tourism environment and experience. Accordingly, tourists with a high level of neuroticism tend to be anxious, depressed, angry, and insecure (Costa & McCrae, 1992a; Dedeoğlu et al, 2019; Huang et al, 2014).…”

Drawing on the cognitive appraisal theory, this study contributes by investigating how and why tourist inspiration elicits emotional responses of delight and transcendence, which in turn affect the intention to revisit a particular destination under the moderating effect of neuroticism. This study uses PLS‐SEM to test the proposed hypotheses on a dataset of 238 international tourists traveling to Vietnam. The results indicate that the states of inspired‐by and inspired‐to have positive effects on delight and transcendence, which in turn exert a positive influence on the intention to revisit. Neuroticism has negative moderating effects on the relationship between tourist inspiration and emotional responses.
