Abstract
Purpose
This paper aims to outline the role of self-transcendent emotions (STEs) such as compassion, gratitude and elevation in the context of sustainable tourism. It proposes a research agenda for further investigation of these emotions as facilitators of value co-creation in sustainable tourism.
Design/methodology/approach
Drawing on the literature on the psychology of STEs, sustainable tourist behaviour and value co-creation, this paper pinpoints potential developments and challenges associated with STEs in the domain of sustainable tourism by following a service-dominant logic approach.
Findings
STEs are likely to have a profound impact on sustainable tourism leading to value co-creation and mitigating the risk of value co-destruction and value no-creation. They can facilitate value co-creation by shifting the focus of actors from their own selves towards others in the tourism ecosystem, shifting the focus from extrinsic to intrinsic motivations and increasing moral values. Moreover, STEs are expected to be contiguous and reciprocal, fostering value co-creation in sustainable tourism practices. However, extreme levels of STEs can lead to value co-destruction and value no-creation.
Originality/value
This paper highlights the role of STEs as facilitators of value co-creation in sustainable tourism, a facet that has been overlooked in the existing literature. Further investigation is necessary in different contexts such as transformative and regenerative tourism; societal or individual crises and failures and the applications of technologies such as the Metaverse and artificial intelligence.
目的
本文概述了自我超越情感 (STEs)如慈悲、感恩和升华在可持续旅游环境中的作用。它提出了进一步研究这些情感作为可持续旅游中价值共创的促进因素的研究议程。
设计方法/途径
本文借鉴了有关自我超越情感心理学、可持续旅游行为和价值共创的文献, 通过遵循服务主导(S-D)逻辑方法, 指出了自我超越情感在可持续旅游领域的潜在发展和挑战。
发现
自我超越情感很可能对可持续旅游产生深远影响, 促进价值共创, 减轻价值共毁和价值无创造的风险。它们可以通过将旅游生态系统中的行动者的关注点从自己转移到他人身上来促进价值共创; 将关注点从外在动机转移到内在动机; 增加道德价值观。此外, 自我超越情感预计会是连续和相互的, 促进可持续旅游实践中的价值共创。然而, 自我超越情感的极端水平可能导致价值共毁和价值无创造。
独创性
我们的论文突出了自我超越情感作为可持续旅游中价值共创的促进因素的作用, 这是现有文献中被忽视的一个方面。有必要在不同的背景下进行进一步研究, 如变革性和再生性旅游; 社会或个体的危机和失败; 以及元宇宙和人工智能等技术的应用。
Propósito
Este artículo explica el papel de las emociones autotrascendentes (STEs por sus siglas en inglés), tales como la compasión, la gratitud y la elevación, en el contexto del turismo sostenible. Además, propone una agenda de investigación para profundizar en el rol de estas emociones como facilitadoras de la cocreación de valor en el turismo sostenible.
Diseño/metodología/enfoque
Basándose en la literatura sobre psicología de las STEs, comportamiento turístico sostenible y cocreación de valor, este artículo señala los posibles avances y retos asociados a las STEs en el ámbito del turismo sostenible, siguiendo el enfoque de la lógica dominante del servicio (S-D).
Resultados
Es probable que las STEs tengan un profundo impacto en el turismo sostenible, lo que conducirá a la cocreación de valor y atenuara el riesgo de la codestrucción de valor y la no creación de valor. Las STEs pueden facilitar la cocreación de valor desplazando la atención de los agentes desde su propio yo hacia los demás en el ecosistema turístico; desplazando la atención de las motivaciones extrínsecas a las intrínsecas; y aumentando los valores morales. Adicionalmente, se espera que las STEs sean contiguas y recíprocas, fomentando la cocreación de valor en las prácticas de turismo sostenible. Sin embargo, unos niveles extremos de STEs pueden conducir a la codestrucción de valor y a la no creación de valor.
Originalidad
Nuestro artículo destaca el rol de las STEs como facilitadoras de la cocreación de valor en el turismo sostenible, una faceta que no ha sido explorada en la literatura existente. Es necesario seguir investigando en diferentes contextos como el turismo transformativo y regenerativo; las crisis y los fracasos sociales o individuales; y las aplicaciones de tecnologías como el Metaverso y la inteligencia artificial.

Abstract
Purpose
Social interaction in comment sections has become a key factor for backers' decision making in crowdfunding platforms. However, current research on the two-way social interaction in crowdfunding is insufficient, and there exist inconsistent conclusions. This study focuses on the social interaction between creators and backers and explores its influence on the successful exit of crowdfunding projects.
Design/methodology/approach
The extended Cox model is used for the empirical analysis of 1,988 crowdfunding projects on the Modian (www.modian.com) platform, a crowdfunding platform for cultural and creative projects in China. The two-way social interaction is reflected in comment quantity and sentiment, as well as reply rate.
Findings
Results reveal an inverted U-shaped relationship between comment quantity/sentiment and the successful exit of crowdfunding projects. This relationship is strengthened by high reply rate.
Originality/value
This study focuses on comment quantity and sentiment. The inverted U-shaped results reconcile previous conclusions. Replies from creators are regarded as a separate factor, and their moderating role is explained. The study research proves the importance of social interaction in crowdfunding platforms and provides suggestions for backers, creators and platform managers.

Abstract
Purpose
This paper aims to concentrate on recent innovations in flexible wearable sensor technology tailored for monitoring vital signals within the contexts of wearable sensors and systems developed specifically for monitoring health and fitness metrics.
Design/methodology/approach
In recent decades, wearable sensors for monitoring vital signals in sports and health have advanced greatly. Vital signals include electrocardiogram, electroencephalogram, electromyography, inertial data, body motions, cardiac rate and bodily fluids like blood and sweating, making them a good choice for sensing devices.
Findings
This report reviewed reputable journal articles on wearable sensors for vital signal monitoring, focusing on multimode and integrated multi-dimensional capabilities like structure, accuracy and nature of the devices, which may offer a more versatile and comprehensive solution.
Originality/value
The paper provides essential information on the present obstacles and challenges in this domain and provide a glimpse into the future directions of wearable sensors for the detection of these crucial signals. Importantly, it is evident that the integration of modern fabricating techniques, stretchable electronic devices, the Internet of Things and the application of artificial intelligence algorithms has significantly improved the capacity to efficiently monitor and leverage these signals for human health monitoring, including disease prediction.
