“…The social media adoption-related publications investigate the factors that influence the adoption of social media by travellers (e.g., Chung et al, 2015;Filieri & McLeay, 2014) and social media use and creation by travellers (e.g., Yoo & Gretzel, 2016). The publications further aim to examine social media perceptions such as trust or credibility and reliability (e.g., Del Chiappa, 2011;Yoo & Gretzel, 2010), perceived usefulness (e.g., Hwang & Park, 2015), and general attitudes of travellers towards social media (e.g., Mendes-Filho, Tan, & Mills, 2012). Motivations is another sub-category which contains the publications that aim to explore what drives social media use (e.g., Huang, Basu, & Hsu, 2010).…”

Acknowledging the significant advancement of social media, the role and impact of social media has been widely discussed in tourism research. As a result, it has become increasingly difficult to obtain an overview of the knowledge produced in relation to the topic. Review studies provide such overviews to guide future research efforts. This study reviews and analyses 152 tourism-related social media publications since 2008. Based on a qualitative systematic analysis of publications that address the topic from a consumer perspective, the paper identifies publication trends and highlights patterns in the topics, aims, and research designs of existing publications. Specifically, it captures a broader array of consumer-centric topics than previous reviews and highlights methodological gaps. Moreover, the research argues that there is still ample room for more research on social media in tourism, particularly as the existing literature neglects social media beyond review platforms while demonstrating that user-generated content greatly influences tourist behaviours and experiences.

“…Para compor esse estudo, apresenta-se a Teoria do Comportamento Planejado [do inglês, Theory of Planned Behavior -TCP], desenvolvida por Ajzen em 1985 (Ajzen, 1991).

RESUMOO avanço da tecnologia móvel tem transformado a experiência dos turistas, em suas viagens. A utilização de aplicativos [apps] para dispositivos móveis tornaram-se um item de auxílio para os consumidores turísticos e para os empreendimentos no setor. Os aplicativos proporcionam aos usuários um acesso à informação ágil e em tempo real, facilitando a busca por informações sobre um destino. O uso de aplicativos cresce significativamente no turismo, sendo incorporado no setor por diversos nichos do mercado. O objetivo deste estudo foi o de analisar a intenção de uso de aplicativos móveis no turismo, a partir da Teoria do Comportamento Planejado [TCP]. Para isso, criou-se um instrumento de pesquisa formado por perguntas estruturadas e fechadas, tendo sua aplicação realizada de forma aleatória e como perspectiva a utilização de aplicativos de turismo em smartphone durante uma viagem. A abordagem analítica utilizada foi quantitativa, através de um levantamento de dados do tipo Survey. A amostra reuniu 60 respondentes, por meio da Modelagem de Equações Estruturais, utilizando a técnica do Partial Least Squares (PLS). Dentre os resultados, o uso da TCP e seu modelo estrutural, mostrou que as variáveis atitude e normas subjetivas influenciam positivamente o 1 Luiz Mendes Filho -Doutor.
