Factors influencing touristic consumer behaviour

Abstract

PurposeThis paper aims to present a content analysis of two major constructs among tourism settings, namely involvement and emotions, strictly related to tourist behaviour, due to the fact that there are still some critical gaps in the knowledge about tourists' emotions and involvement.Design/methodology/approachAn in-depth content analysis of involvement and emotions was adopted as the methodological approach. This methodology addressed an amalgam of different definitions, frameworks, mixed theoretical and practical applications and approaches, results, comparisons as well as a blend of a set of scales of involvement and emotions by confrontating of authors.FindingsThe major findings state that emotions and involvement demonstrate greater progress and scientific development to the level of tourism, marketing and consumer behaviour, representing an important issue for the integrated tourism experiences.Originality/valueThis study presents a critical reflection on the importance of emotions and involvement in specific contexts of leisure and tourism.

“…Each event has a different degree of weight or dimension that influences the size and quantity of information needed to manage it, e.g. the urgency and persistence of the disaster, the level of control, the extent of harm and loss, and finally the effects on the people and stakeholders involved (Baggio and Valeri, 2020;Santos et al, 2021a;2021b).…”
