An empirical examination of the antecedents of residents\u27 support for of future film tourism development
This study aimed to develop and test a conceptual model of the antecedents of residents\u27 attitudinal behavior to support future film tourism in a popular tourism destination. These antecedents include: socio-cultural impacts of existing tourism, place attachment, external perceived realism of media programs, and perceived importance of residents\u27 involvement. A total of 416 survey questionnaires were completed from residents living in the province of Seville, Spain. Partial least squares-structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) was used to examine the relationship between these factors and the residents\u27 support for future film tourism (RSFFT). The results indicate that place attachment and perceived importance of residents\u27 involvement are the most significant predictors. Also, it confirms that the importance of residents\u27 external perceived realism of movies and TV series shot in their locale is a key predictor of the RSFFT

What Drives Faculty Publication Citations in the Business Field? Empirical Results from an AACSB Middle Eastern Institution
This paper examines how journal-, article-, and author-related factors influence citation counts in the business field using 236 journal articles collected from an AACSB medium research output business school in the Middle East between 2017 and 2021. Results from association tests demonstrated that journal rank and format, the subfield of the article, and author prestige are significantly related to the number of citations. Results from CHAID further demonstrated the presence of an interaction/joint effect among variables; in particular: (1) articles published in Q1 WoS journals that are also authored/co-authored by prestige authors resulted in the highest number of citations; (2) articles published in Q2–Q3 WoS journals that also belonged to the business and management domain resulted in an average number of citations, and (3) articles published in Q4 or unranked journals in WoS also ranked Q3–Q4 or unranked in Scimago resulted in the lowest number of citations. These results provide theoretical implications and practical recommendations for faculty and business schools interested in enhancing their scholarly impact and rankings

Examining the antecedents and effects of hotel corporate reputation on customers’ loyalty and citizenship behavior: an integrated framework
This study combined service quality (SQ), corporate social responsibility (CSR), satisfaction, and trust as antecedents of corporate reputation (CR) to examine how these constructs concurrently influence a hotel's corporate reputation and subsequently customer loyalty and citizenship behavior using data collected in May 2021 on 222 US leisure travelers who stayed at mid- to upscale hotels over the previous two years. Using structural equation modeling (SEM), results revealed that while CSR positively influences a hotel's CR both directly and indirectly (through satisfaction and trust), SQ only exerts an indirect influence (again through satisfaction and trust) on a hotel's CR. Furthermore, CR has a positive influence not only on customer loyalty but also citizenship behavior. These results contribute to our understanding of the antecedents and consequences of hotel corporate reputation (CR), and help further demystify relationships among the tested variables, providing both theoretical and practical implications.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
Effects of interpretive guiding outcomes on tourist satisfaction and behavioral intention
This study examined the effects of both cognitive and affective tour guide interpretation outcomes on tourist satisfaction and behavioral intention in a heritage tourism context. Data were collected via a survey of 282 inbound mainland Chinese tourists to Sovereign Hill, Ballarat, a heritage tourism site in Victoria, Australia. A hierarchical structural model was constructed based on a comprehensive literature review of tour guiding, interpretation, and tourist satisfaction and was tested applying partial least squares structural equation modeling. Results show that cognitive interpretation outcome has a greater impact on tourist satisfaction and sustaining visitor arrivals than affective interpretation outcome, whereas satisfaction with the guided tour experience directly affects behavioral intention and largely mediates the effect of cognitive interpretation outcome on behavioral intention. The study offers both theoretical insights in relation to interpretation and tourist satisfaction and practical implications for interpretive tour guiding

Visiting Fortaleza : motivation, satisfaction and revisit intentions of spectators at the Brazil 2014 FIFA World Cup
The FIFA World Cup provides opportunities to attract visitors to host cities and for local residents to enjoy event-related celebrations. This paper directs attention to Fortaleza, in the north-east of Brazil, where a survey was conducted of 285 spectators to identify the relative importance of enjoyment and competitive outcomes as motives to attend games at the 2014 World Cup. The study also examined the relationship between motivation, event setting and event satisfaction and whether any differences in these relationships existed between local and visiting spectators. In the case of visitors to Fortaleza, factors that influence intentions to revisit the city were also examined. Although satisfaction did not have an impact on visitation intentions, visitors were strongly influenced by competitive motives associated with the team they support. In comparison, local residents were more motivated by event excitement. The need to recognize the propensities of different types of spectators and the complexity of the relationship between spectators and the event setting are discussed
