Abstract
Underpinned by Stimulus Organism Response (SOR) theory, this study investigates the role of mindfulness in the relationship between hotels’ crowding perceptions and cognitive and affective dimensions of residents’ social identity. Drawing on a sample of 315 surveys distributed to the residents in Zanzibar, a partial least square structural modelling (PLS-SEM) was used to analyse the data set. The findings of the study supported all hypotheses. First, crowding perceptions positively affect mindfulness. Second, mindfulness is positively associated with cognitive and affective identities. Thus, the present study's findings provide discussion and lay the foundations for theoretical and practical implications. Finally, the areas for further research are suggested.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications.
The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
