Abstract

Purpose

Mobile food ordering apps (MFOAs) became more popular, thanks to social distancing regulations during the COVID-19 outbreak. People started to order food using these apps more than usual. As customers seem happy to use these apps, there is always a risk of spreading infection. These facts inevitably shape customer intentions. Therefore, this study aims to empirically assess the MFOA user dining attitudes (DA), e-satisfaction (ES) and continuance intention (CI) regarding the perceived risk (PR) during the COVID-19 pandemic in Türkiye.

Design/methodology/approach

This study used structural equation modelling (SEM) in the expectation confirmation theory and technology acceptance model. Data collection instruments were derived from existing literature, and 625 questionnaires were collected via online surveys. The data collection instrument consisted of eight parts that aimed to gather information about participants’ demographics, expectation confirmation, perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, ES, PR and CI.

Findings

Results showed significant relationships between ES, DA, PR and CI. The most remarkable finding is that while ES influences customers to reuse MFOAs, PR causes a decrease in CI.

Originality/value

This study model broadened the existing MFOA study models by adding risk factors. Also, it made a valuable contribution to emerging MFOA literature both in Türkiye and the world.

研究目的

由于 Covid-19 爆发期间的社交距离规定, 移动订餐应用程序 (MFOA) 变得更受欢迎。 人们开始比平时更多地使用这些应用程序点餐。由于客户似乎很乐意使用这些应用程序, 因此始终存在传播感染的风险。这些事实不可避免地会影响客户的使用意愿。因此, 本研究旨在实证评估 MFOA 用户在 Turkiye Covid-19 大流行期间对感知风险的用餐态度、电子满意度和持续意图

研究设计/方法/途径

该研究在预期确认理论和技术接受模型中使用了 SEM。 数据收集工具来自现有文献, 通过在线调查收集了 625 份问卷。 数据收集工具由 8 个部分组成, 旨在收集有关参与者的人口统计信息、期望确认、感知易用性、感知有用性、电子满意度、感知风险和持续意图的信息。

研究发现

结果显示电子满意度、用餐态度、感知风险和持续意愿之间存在显着关系。 最显着的发现是, 虽然电子满意度会影响客户重复使用 MFOA, 但感知到的风险会导致持续意愿下降。

研究原创性/价值

该研究模型通过添加风险因素拓宽了现有的 MFOA 研究模型。 此外, 它还为土耳其和世界新兴的 MFOA 文献做出了宝贵贡献。

Abstract

Purpose

Focused on peer-to-peer accommodation sharing, this paper aims to investigate the effect of perceived value on the two dimensions of satisfaction (transaction- and experience-based) and continuance intention involved in using a platform featuring triadic relationships.

Design/methodology/approach

Survey data were collected from 392 Airbnb users and analysed using the partial least squares approach to structural equation modelling.

Findings

All dimensions of perceived value had a significant effect on transaction-based satisfaction. Symbolic value did not have a significant effect on satisfaction. Transaction- and experience-based satisfaction had a significant effect on continuance intention.

Research limitations/implications

The findings highlight the differential effects of dimensions of perceived value for understanding customer satisfaction and continuance intention in the peer-to-peer accommodation context. The study focused on only one sector of the sharing economy, namely, the peer-to-peer accommodation sector.

Originality/value

The study offers fresh insights on the nexus between value perceptions and continuance intention in the context of peer-to-peer accommodation.

研究目的

本文以点对点住宿共享为重点, 研究了感知价值对使用具有三元关系的平台所涉及的满意度(交易和体验)和持续使用意图两个维度的影响。

研究设计/方法

从 392 名 Airbnb 用户处收集调查数据, 并使用结构方程建模的偏最小二乘法 (PLS-SEM) 进行分析。

研究发现

感知价值的所有维度对基于交易的满意度都有显着影响。象征价值对满意度没有显着影响。基于交易和体验的满意度对持续意向有显着影响。

研究意义/局限性

研究结果强调了感知价值维度对理解点对点住宿环境中的客户满意度和持续意图的不同影响。该研究仅关注共享经济的一个部门, 即点对点住宿部门。

研究原创性

该研究对点对点住宿环境下的价值感知和持续意图之间的关系提供了新的见解。

Abstract

Purpose

This study aims to examine the relationships among the dimensions of consumption values (functional, social and emotional), co-creation, information overload, satisfaction and continuance intention derived from the use of the Airbnb platform.

Design/methodology/approach

A Web-based survey was conducted among Italians, and a valid sample of 259 persons was obtained for data analysis.

Findings

The survey results indicated that only functional value and social value are strong predictors of satisfaction in the use of the Airbnb website for accommodation booking. Co-creation and absence of information overload also contribute to satisfaction with using the Airbnb website for accommodation booking, which in turn affects continuance intention.

Research limitations/implications

The findings of this study are highly destination-specific, given that the authors collected the data only from Italian residents. The sample was based on a snowball sampling technique; thus, the study findings could be misrepresented because of sampling selection bias. Moreover, the study was limited to the use of three dimensions of consumption values, co-creation, information overload and satisfaction to predict continuance intention. Furthermore, the present study adopted a Web-based survey questionnaire.

Practical implications

Managerial implications include recommendations for hosts to emphasise their prices when listing accommodations on the Airbnb website and to focus on active interaction with potential guests. Information on the website should also be organised to avoid information overload.

Originality/value

This study allows a deeper understanding of users’ continuance intention with regards to the Airbnb website by exploring the possible determinants.

目的

本研究考察了消费价值(功能、社会和情感方面)、共同创造、信息超载、满意度与Airbnb平台持续参与使用之间的关系。

设计/方法/方法

研究对意大利人进行了网上调查, 得到了259份有效的抽样数据并进行分析。

调查结果

调查结果显示, 只有功能价值和社会价值才能强烈预测Airbnb网站住宿预订的满意度。共同创造和信息不超载也有助于使用Airbnb网站进行住宿预订的满意度, 这又会影响网站的持续参与使用。

研究限制/影响

这项研究的结果受地域限制, 因为我们只收集了意大利居民的数据。该样本基于滚雪球采样技术, 因此, 由于抽样选择偏差, 研究结果可能被歪曲。该研究还仅限于使用消费价值、共同创造、信息超载和满意度三个维度来预测持续参与使用。此外, 网上调查问卷的发放也可能会影响问卷的质量。

实际含义

本研究的管理意义包括建议房东在Airbnb网站上列出住宿时强调价格, 并专注于与潜在客人的积极互动。房东还应组织网站上的信息, 以避免信息超载。

原创性/价值

这项研究通过探索可能的决定因素, 更深入地了解用户对Airbnb网站的持续参与使用。

x00F3Propósito

Este estudio examina las relaciones entre las dimensiones de los valores de consumo (funcional, social y emocional), co-creación, sobrecarga de información, satisfacción e intención de continuidad, derivada del uso de la plataforma Airbnb.

Diseño/metodología/enfoque

Se realizó una encuesta “en línea”, entre italianos, y se obtuvo para el análisis de datos, una muestra válida de 259 personas.

titleResultados

Los resultados de la encuesta indicaron, que solo el valor funcional y el valor social, son fuertes predictores de la satisfacción en el uso del sitio web de Airbnb a la hora de hacer reservas de alojamiento. La creación conjunta y la ausencia de sobrecarga de información, también contribuyen a la satisfacción de usar el sitio web de Airbnb, para reservar alojamiento, lo que a su vez afecta la intención de continuidad.

Limitaciones/implicaciones de la investigación

Los resultados de este estudio son específicos para un destino, dado que la recolección de los los datos solo se efectúo sobre residentes italianos. La muestra final, se obtuvo con una técnica de muestreo de bolas de nieve; por lo tanto, los resultados del estudio podrían tergiversarse debido al sesgo de selección de muestreo. Además, el estudio se limitó al uso de tres dimensiones de valores de consumo, co-creación, sobrecarga de información y satisfacción para predecir la intención de continuidad. Además, el presente estudio adoptó un cuestionario de encuesta basado en la web.

Implicaciones prácticas

Las implicaciones gerenciales incluyen recomendaciones para que los anfitriones resalten sus precios, al enumerar alojamientos de Airbnb y centrarse en la interacción activa con posibles huéspedes. La información en el sitio web también debe organizarse para evitar la sobrecarga de información.

Originalidad/valor

Este estudio permite una comprensión más profunda sobre la intención de continuidad de los usuarios con respecto al sitio web de Airbnb, al explorar los posibles determinantes que la afectan.
