Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this study is to investigate how negative emotions toward brands, especially brand hate, impact anti-brand consumption behavior, including brand avoidance and further brand switching, through the intervening mediators of negative word-of-mouth (nWOM) and protest behavior as well as within contingencies.

Design/methodology/approach

Existing scales are adapted, and the field study is conducted in Malang, Indonesia. Based on purposive sampling, 275 respondents in three different malls complete a questionnaire related to Sari Roti, a national brand suffering from a boycott. In all, 250 qualified questionnaires are eventually used for data analysis using partial least square.

Findings

This research supports the effect of brand hate on nWOM, which then influences protest behavior, subsequently driving consumers to avoid a particular brand and opt for an alternative. nWOM was also found to have a direct effect on brand avoidance. For moderating effects, brand social responsibility and social media usage were found to negatively and positively affect the brand hate–nWOM relationship, respectively.

Originality/value

The limited extant literature only addresses a simple direct–effect relationship between negative emotions and anti-brand consequences. Drawing on the positioning lens and the dis-identification view, this research provides deep insight through theorizing a sequential, four-stage framework regarding the effect of brand hate on brand avoidance and brand switching. This framework is also explored under contingencies, further advancing an understanding of this dynamic subject matter.

Abstract

Purpose

This study aims to highlight the influence of co-creation experience (CCE) on tourists’ citizenship behavior (TCB), emphasizing the Indonesian ecotourism sector during the post-COVID pandemic.

Design/methodology/approach

By using a judgmental sampling, data were collected from 150 visitors who visits Indonesian ecotourism resort and acquired the wildlife experience through co-creation process. To evaluate the relationship model, partial least squares-structural equation modeling by SmartPLS 3rd version was used in this study.

Findings

The result indicated that CCE in terms of Indonesian ecotourism had an effect on involvement (INV) and satisfaction (SAT). Result ascertain INV and SAT direct effect on TCB. Multigroup analysis indicated that perceived risk of COVID-19 could moderate insignificantly the relationship among INV, SAT on TCB.

Research limitations/implications

This study focuses on CCE, INV, SAT and TCB in Indonesian ecotourism with wildlife attraction and contributes an insight for tourism research; thus, the results cannot be generalized for other ecotourism worldwide.

Practical implications

The proposed model of this study suggests the need to review the current condition of citizenship behavior at destination level, especially regarding to cleanliness and crowd controlling on post-COVID pandemic to maintain tourists’ health and safety while traveling.

Social implications

Achieving TCB in different types of destination (ecotourism) requires specific development models concerning environmental conditions.

Originality/value

Though CCE, INV, SAT and TCB have identified as main topics for tourism research especially in ecotourism sector, the related factors of TCB in post-COVID-19 era are remain limited.

目的

本研究旨在强调共创体验(CCE)对游客公民行为(TCB)的影响, 重点是后疫情期间印尼生态旅游中的游客公民行为(TCB)。

设计/方法论/方法

通过判断抽样, 从访问印尼生态旅游胜地的 150 名游客收集了数据, 并通过共创过程获得了其野生动物体验。 为了评估关系模型, 本研究使用了 SmartPLS 第三版的偏最小二乘结构方程建模 (PLS-SEM)。

发现

结果表明, 印尼生态旅游的 CCE 对参与度(INV)和满意度(SAT)有影响。 结果确定了INV和SAT对TCB的直接影响。 多组分析表明, covid-19 的感知风险对 INV 和 SAT 与 TCB 的关系影响不大。 本研究还描述了中介作用。

研究局限性/影响

该研究重点关注印尼生态旅游中野生动物吸引力的CCE、INV、SAT, TCB, 为旅游研究提供见解; 因此, 研究结果不能推广到全世界其他生态旅游。

实际影响

该研究提出的模型表明, 有必要审查目的地层面公民行为的现状, 特别是在新冠大流行后的卫生和人群控制方面, 以维护游客在旅行时的健康和安全。

社会影响

不同类型的目的地(生态旅游)中实现游客的公民行为需要针对不同的环境条件而选择开发模式。

原创性/价值

尽管 CCE、INV、SAT 和 TCB 是旅游研究中, 特别是在生态旅游领域的重点研究对象, 但在后疫情旅游过程中, 其与目的地公民行为相关的因素研究仍然有限。

Objetivo

Este estudio pretende poner de relieve la influencia de la experiencia de cocreación (CCE) en el comportamiento ciudadano de los turistas (TCB) haciendo hincapié en el sector del ecoturismo indonesio durante el periodo post-pandémico de la COVID-19.

Diseño/enfoque

Mediante el uso de un muestreo de juicio, se recopilaron datos de 150 visitantes que visitaron un centro de ecoturismo en Indonesia y adquirieron la experiencia de la vida silvestre a través del proceso de co-creación. Para evaluar el modelo de relación, en este estudio se utilizó el modelo de ecuaciones estructurales de mínimos cuadrados parciales (PLS-SEM) de SmartPLS 3.a versión.

Resultados

El resultado indicó que la CCE en términos de ecoturismo indonesio tuvo un efecto sobre la implicación (INV) y la satisfacción (SAT). El resultado determinó que INV y SAT tienen un efecto directo sobre el TCB. El análisis multigrupo indicó que el riesgo percibido del covid-19 modera de forma insignificante la relación INV y SAT con el TCB. Papel mediador también descrito en este estudio.

Limitaciones/implicaciones de la investigación

el estudio se centra en CCE, INV, SAT, TCB en el ecoturismo indonesio con atracción de vida silvestre y aporta información para la investigación turística; por lo tanto, los resultados no pueden generalizarse para otros ecoturismos en todo el mundo.

Implicaciones prácticas

el modelo propuesto en el estudio sugiere la necesidad de revisar la condición actual del comportamiento ciudadano a nivel de destino, especialmente en lo relativo a la limpieza y el control de multitudes en la etapa poscovid para mantener la salud y la seguridad de los turistas durante el viaje

Implicaciones sociales

lograr un comportamiento ciudadano de los turistas en diferentes tipos de destino (ecoturismo) requiere modelos de desarrollo específicos en relación con las condiciones ambientales.

Originalidad/valor

aunque CCE, INV, SAT y TCB se identifican como una prioridad para la investigación turística, especialmente en el sector del ecoturismo, los factores relacionados en el curso del turismo post-covid-19 que se relacionan con la ciudadanía a nivel de destino siguen siendo limitados.

Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between tourism authenticity and tourism experience and its implications for tourists' intention to make repeat visits in the context of cultural festivals.

Design/methodology/approach

This study uses descriptive quantitative and partial least square analysis by discussing six direct and five indirect relationships in the model. This study used a purposive sampling technique, with a total sample of 189 respondents who were collected through a survey of tourists who had visited the Reog Ponorogo National Festival. This study uses SmartPLS SEM to analyze the data.

Findings

The results show that this study extends its practical, policy and theoretical implications to cultural festival stakeholders. In addition, the findings of this study indicate that objective and constructive authenticity have a positive and significant effect on tourist experience. Meanwhile, tourist experience has a positive and significant effect on revisit intention. The mediating role of tourist experience also has a positive and significant effect.

Originality/value

Event tourism that favors the culture of local wisdom shows originality and becomes an attraction for tourists to visit which affects experience and revisit intention. This study focuses on the attributes of authenticity to tourist experience and revisit intention, in which tourist experience acts as a mediation.

Abstract

Purpose

This paper seeks to understand the interrelationships between destination attractiveness, satisfaction, attachment and visitors' loyalty and to determine the potential moderating effect of generational cohorts. Using expectancy disconfirmation and generational cohort theories, the paper explains how visitors' cognitive knowledge and motivation factors influence international visitors' attraction and maintenance and their behavioral/attitudinal loyalty.

Design/methodology/approach

Data were collected from 390 international visitors to South Africa during the Southern Hemisphere's summertime via a quantitative research method. A two-stage approach of structural equation modeling was used to analyze the hypothesized model.

Findings

There was no relationship between visitors' loyalty and destination image or destination image and destination trust. However, destination image has a significant effect on visitors' satisfaction. Additionally, visitors' experience had a positive effect on satisfaction and loyalty, while destination trust and destination attachment were positively related.

Practical implications

The findings show that the tourism sector could reap greater benefits from international tourists if a deeper understanding of different generational cohorts was obtained. There was a varying effect of destination marketing organizations' efforts on different generational cohorts' attraction, trust, satisfaction, feelings and expectations. This study proposes that direct marketing organizations should focus on building brand trust, as it is key to attracting different generational cohorts. Lastly, the study found that generational cohort segmentation accrues many benefits and creates and enhances superior advantages.

Originality/value

The paper provides evidence that more than a destination's attractiveness is required to achieve loyalty; segmenting and understanding different generational cohorts' cognitive, affective and motivation aids in generating better response actions to tourists' changing needs and meeting their demands.
