“…We distributed the message to participate in the survey, including the link to the online designed questionnaire to a complied email list of initially identified people who were planning their trips abroad for the year, mainly to Africa and Asia. Following that, they were asked to forward the invitation to friends and relatives ( Park & Stangl, 2020 ). Collecting part of the validation data online was meant to minimize the biases that characterize data from the same destination.…”

The travel medicine literature points to travelers' concerns as significant promoters of their under-vaccinations. Therefore, this study researches the hitherto understudied concept of vaccination concern and its theoretical scope in the international travel space. It attempts a conceptualization of the concept by delimiting its theoretical scope and proposes a measure for it. An exploratory sequential mixed-methods design was used to conduct four interlocking studies using data from a netnography, field interviews, and surveys among varied international travelers. A scale with six dimensions, comprising safety, efficacy, cost, time, access, and autonomy concerns were revealed. The scale significantly explained mainstream and segments-based tourists' uptake attitudes and behavior for their eligible vaccines. The findings suggest that anti-travel vax sentiments and public vax sentiments despite conceptually similar are considerably distinct. The broad nature of the scale and its prediction of travelers' vaccine uptake make it clinically relevant for tracking and resolving concerns for increased vaccine uptake.

“…These technologies have become popular in recent years in the context of tourism. Park and Stangl [25] investigated the AR experience from the perspective of sensation-seeking and identified experience-seeking and boredom-susceptibility as two key elements in the AR experience. STTs rely more on the value created by tourists than on the technology itself.…”

The rapid advancement of smart tourism technology brings new opportunities for tourism development. More travel destinations are relying on smart technology to attract more tourists to visit and enrich their travel experience. The main purpose of this study was to explore whether tourists are satisfied with their smart tourism technology experience (i.e., informativeness, accessibility, interactivity, personalization, and security). This study also investigated the impact of smart tourism technology experience on tourists’ happiness and revisit intention. This study used a structural equation method to find the relationship among smart tourism technology attributes, travel satisfaction, happiness, and revisit intention. Surveys of a total of 527 participants who traveled to Macau from Mainland China were used for the analysis. The results showed that accessibility is the most important factor affecting the smart tourism technology experience and personalization the least. Smart tourism technology experience is shown to be significantly associated with travel experience satisfaction, and travel experience satisfaction has a positive effect on both tourists’ happiness and revisit intention. Finally, tourist happiness is also shown to be positively associated with revisit intention. This study provides theoretical and practical significance for the development of smart tourism in the future.

“…Zhou Bo et al (2017) believed that the usefulness and convenience of AR technology for tourists would have an impact on tourists' attitude towards using AR technology, which would affect their willingness to use augmented reality tourism products, thus further stimulating tourists' tourism intention [9] . Park and Stangl (2020) analyzed tourists' response to augmented reality application from the aspects of experience (ease of use, usefulness and fun), flow (control, attention and curiosity), perceived benefits (function, symbol and experience benefits), information quality, interactivity and attitude. They thought that personalized services should be developed to provide information and design for augmented reality system in order to make the augmented reality application match the different needs of the sensation seeker [10] .…”

In the era of the integration of information technology and tourism, whether the experience brought by augmented reality (AR) tourism products can meet the needs of tourists has become the focus of the industry and academia. Taking the AR tourism project of 'Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai' in Xiamen Fantawild Dreamland as an example, this paper extracted three dimensions of the impact of augmented reality technology on tourist experience: emotional experience, entertainment experience and aesthetic experience, by means of field investigation and questionnaire survey. At the same time, the influence of the three dimensions on tourist satisfaction and behavioral intention were further analyzed. Through regression analysis, it was concluded that the three dimensions have positive and significant impact on tourist satisfaction and behavioral intention. Finally, suggestions were put forward.
