To date, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, the use of implicit measures in the service research domain is limited. This paper aims to introduce implicit measures and explain why, or for what purpose, they are worthwhile to consider; how these measures can be used; and when and where implicit measures merit the service researcher’s consideration.

To gain an understanding of how implicit measures could benefit service research, three promising implicit measures are discussed, namely, the implicit association test, the affect misattribution procedure and the propositional evaluation paradigm. More specifically, this paper delves into how implicit measures can support service research, focusing on three focal service topics, namely, technology, affective processes including customer experience and service employees.

This paper demonstrates how implicit measures can investigate paramount service-related subjects. Additionally, it provides essential methodological “need-to-knows” for assessing others’ work with implicit measures and/or for starting your own use of them.

This paper introduces when and why to consider integrating implicit measures in service research, along with a roadmap on how to get started.

The objectives of this study are threefold: to delineate the phenomenon of “You Share, We Donate” (YSWD) campaigns and what distinguishes them from sales-based cause-related marketing; to contrast the effectiveness of YSWD and sales-based cause-related marketing campaigns and provide an explanation for the differences in the effectiveness; to explore boundary conditions of the proposed differences.

Three experiments were conducted to empirically test the differential effect of campaign formats (i.e. YSWD vs sales-based cause-related marketing), the underlying mechanism and structural as well as contextual features moderating the differential effect.

The findings suggest that YSWD messages elicit consumers’ message-sharing intentions more than traditional cause-related marketing messages. The effect is explained by consumers’ sense of empowerment and can be enhanced through donation cap non-specification. The findings further indicate that YSWD campaigns are especially fruitful in low power distance cultures.

This study contributes toward corporate donation campaign literature by focusing on the usage of social media.

From a managerial perspective, this research provides marketers with guidelines on how to choose between the two cause-related marketing campaign formats and how to enhance the effectiveness of YSWD campaigns.

This paper extends cause-related marketing literature by not only introducing the phenomenon of YSWD campaigns to the literature but also exploring strategies to enhance the effectiveness of such campaigns and shedding light on an outcome beyond the sales impact of cause-related marketing campaigns, i.e. an increase of visibility in social media. From a managerial perspective, this research provides marketers with guidelines on how to choose between the two cause-related marketing campaign formats and how to enhance the effectiveness of YSWD campaigns.

Designing an effective metaverse experience through a tourism digital-twin platform is crucial to the success of metaverse tourism. How such a digital-twin platform should appeal to target users, however, lacks exploration. The study aims to advance a conceptual contribution by successfully creating a metaverse experience through a well-designed digital-twin platform. It also aims to show how the design science approach in tourism can enrich our understanding of digital-twin platform design elements introduced in metaverse experience design.

Guided by the design science approach in tourism, this research conceptualizes the role of digital-twin elements in metaverse experience design and proposes a one-factor between-subject experimental design to examine the effect.

This research conceptualizes how eight unique configurations of digital-twin design, which are embellished in two or three dimensions, shape tourists’ metaverse experience and physical travel intention.

The results offer operators clear strategic guidance on designing an effective tourism digital-twin platform.

This study not only identifies the impact of digital-twin platform design elements but also clarifies how such elements affect customers’ metaverse experiences.

Diseñar una experiencia efectiva en el metaverso a través de una plataforma digital gemela de turismo es crucial para el éxito del turismo en el metaverso. Sin embargo, la exploración de cómo debería atraer dicha plataforma digital gemela a los usuarios objetivo carece de exploración. El estudio tiene como objetivo avanzar en una contribución conceptual al crear con éxito una experiencia en el metaverso a través de una plataforma digital gemela bien diseñada. También tiene como objetivo mostrar cómo el enfoque de la ciencia del diseño en el turismo puede enriquecer nuestra comprensión de los elementos de diseño de la plataforma digital gemela introducidos en el diseño de experiencias en el metaverso.

Guiada por el enfoque de la ciencia del diseño en el turismo, esta investigación conceptualiza el papel de los elementos gemelos digitales en el diseño de experiencias metaversales y propone un diseño experimental de un factor entre sujetos para examinar su efecto.

Esta investigación conceptualiza cómo ocho configuraciones únicas de diseño gemelo-digital, enriquecidas en dos o tres dimensiones, conforman la experiencia metaversal de los turistas y su intención de viaje físico.

Los resultados ofrecen a los operadores una orientación estratégica clara para diseñar una plataforma gemelo-digital turística eficaz.

Este estudio no sólo identifica el impacto de los elementos de diseño de las plataformas gemelas digitales, sino que también aclara cómo afectan dichos elementos a las experiencias metaversales de los clientes.
