Grounded by the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) and the concept of constraint negotiation, this qualitative study simulates a longitudinal method to understand traveler behavior changes before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic. In-depth interviews revealed that behavioral changes were and will be influenced by travelers' attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control. Furthermore, the results suggest that each dimension of the TPB interacts with the others during the travel decision-making process. Travelers' ability to negotiate constraints was also found to play an important role in influencing participants' behaviors, suggesting it to be a strong addition to the TPB. Practical implications include important directions for destinations to better understand visitors' attitudes, the roles of others, and how to aid in reducing constraints.</p>","PeriodicalId":51375,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Tourism Research","volume":"27 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2025-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/jtr.70137","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145317723","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Building on research in authenticity and signaling theory, we theorize how visual first impressions, such as clothing, can generate perceptions of authenticity that lead investors to overlook later quality signals, including a lack of prior experience. We found support for our theory in two field studies and a randomized experiment: investors tend to perceive entrepreneurs who are casually dressed as more authentic than those formally dressed, which is associated with higher investor evaluations. Moreover, perceptions of authenticity generated by casual clothes crowd out later signals: Casually dressed entrepreneurs are evaluated highly regardless of their entrepreneurial experience, but formally dressed entrepreneurs are penalized for perceived inexperience. We discuss the implications of our findings for authenticity research, the temporal order of signals, and early-stage investments.","PeriodicalId":54212,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Management","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.5,"publicationDate":"2025-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145311032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We introduce the Large Language Model-Based Innovation Dynamics Analyzer (LIDA), a four-step methodological pipeline that (1) detects innovation stories with few-shot GPT-4 prompts, (2) groups them via BERTopic, (3) links them into time-bounded action–reaction chains through HDBSCAN, and (4) gauges market impact using cumulative abnormal returns. Applied to 20,000 news gathered from Restaurant SmartBrief (2011–2024), LIDA delivers the first large-sample map of competitive innovation in tourism. Results show process innovations consistently lift market-value; business-model experiments trigger short-term discounts; and product launches are value-neutral unless demand builds quickly. Absolute pioneers earn no premiums, whereas wave leaders and brief “deliberate followers” gain fleeting rewards. These patterns show that advantage depends on innovation type and timing, not historical primacy. Methodologically, LIDA converts vast unstructured corpora into analyzable competitive-action networks.","PeriodicalId":48469,"journal":{"name":"Tourism Management","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":12.7,"publicationDate":"2025-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145315064","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many early career researchers—and sometimes even experienced scholars—struggle with the simple question: <i>Which method should be used?</i> The answer, however, is rarely straightforward. It depends not only on the convenience or the disciplinary habit of a researcher but also on the nature of the research question, the timing of the inquiry, the context in which it is situated, the units of analysis involved, and the resources available for its execution. Textbooks have contributed richly to our understanding, yet they frequently overwhelm rather than provide clarity.

Despite the detrimental impact of youth unemployment on this demographic and recent research exploring their masculine identity, there remains a limited understanding of their current employment aspirations. Drawing on a qualitative study conducted in the South Wales Valleys, UK, this article seeks to fill the knowledge gap by examining the employment orientation of marginalised working-class young men. The findings reveal both continuity and change in the understanding of this subgroup’s employment aspirations. Continuity includes a protest masculine-related rejection of certain service sector work and an attraction to manual employment influenced by familial socialisation. Change is observed through an interest in non-manual work, which for some participants appears to stem from what is described as a rupturing process, or significant social influences that destabilise working-class masculine modes of being.","PeriodicalId":48187,"journal":{"name":"Work Employment and Society","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145314514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
