Abstract

Perceived emotional synchrony is a positive collective emotion that has a substantial impact on the experience of group activities. However, the mechanism of its formation and the subsequent impact have not been thoroughly investigated. Based on the interaction ritual chains theory, the research explores the role of perceived emotional synchrony and its mechanism. A mixed-method approach and a multi-study method were employed, consisting of social network analysis (Study 1: N = 2595), in-depth interviews (Study 2: N = 16), and questionnaires (Study 3: N = 585). The results shed light on the importance of perceived emotional synchrony by revealing how perceived emotional synchrony is formulated and how perceived emotional synchrony increases the probability of tourists re-engaging in the activities. This research also offers practical implications for the experience design of collective activities and tourism destination management.

集体旅游吸引力的魅力在于什么？互动仪式链理论视角下的解释

感知情绪同步性是一种积极的集体情绪，对群体活动的体验有重大影响。然而，它的形成机制和随后的影响尚未得到彻底的研究。基于互动仪式链理论，本研究探讨了感知情绪同步性的作用及其机制。采用混合方法和多研究方法，包括社会网络分析（研究1:N = 2595），深度访谈（研究2:N = 16）和问卷调查（研究3:N = 585）。研究结果揭示了感知情感同步性是如何形成的，以及感知情感同步性如何增加游客再次参与活动的可能性，从而揭示了感知情感同步性的重要性。本研究对集体活动体验设计与旅游目的地管理也有实际意义。
