We differentiate this relationship according to the level of work-family (W-F) enrichment and family-work (F-W) enrichment, as well as we analyze the role of work-family (W-F) and family-work (F-W) conflict. We use a sample of 322 employees, and test the relationships with structural equations. The results show that a higher use of work-family practices has more beneficial effects on enrichment and conflict, and that both enrichment and conflict influence employees’ job satisfaction. However, higher levels of interference or stress at work make employees feel less satisfied at work. The paper highlights the positive role of enrichment in order to improve employee’s job satisfaction as well as to increase his/her organizational commitment.","PeriodicalId":41367,"journal":{"name":"ESIC Market","volume":"48 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71290489","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using Partial Least Squares-based Multi-Group analysis (PLS-MGA), it was proved that satisfaction does not have a significant effect on intentions in the case of Prado Museum. The research confirmed that overall, website evaluation positively and significantly influences users’ perception of their control within the website and their intentions. The findings reveal significant academic and managerial contributions. The PLS-MGA results demonstrate that there are no significant differences between the two museums.","PeriodicalId":41367,"journal":{"name":"ESIC Market","volume":"48 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71290923","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study sums up what this is and how the collaborative economy has evolved, promoting new lines of future research in a field that, as it is relatively new, still lacks consolidated scientific literature. To assess consumer perceptions, a quantitative population study was run on a sample of 370 consumers. The results obtained through a web questionnaire reveal generalised knowledge of what the collaborative economy is. However, they also reveal that although we consume collaboratively, in general, these same consumers are not promoters or “creators”, not embarking on collaborative initiatives. It was also found that traditional media are giving way to internet-based tools such as social networks, which are better adapted to the new collaborative business models.","PeriodicalId":41367,"journal":{"name":"ESIC Market","volume":"48 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71291035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this reason, we propose a theoretical model of analysis of the different factors that influence the behaviours and motivations of the tourist. This paper attempts to justify the influence that the culture of a place has upon the configuration of the personality of its inhabitants and whether these personalities give rise to different behaviours and motivations at each stage of the journey. The theoretical model will enable all involved in the tourism sector to identify and pri-oritise levers, which can be used in their marketing and sales plans, adapting their value proposition through mass customisation, on the basis of segmentation. This proposal for a theoretical model will determine the relational strategy to be followed with tourists and will enable it to be more profitable in the long term, by developing value for tourists and being more efficient with the available resources.","PeriodicalId":41367,"journal":{"name":"ESIC Market","volume":"48 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71291043","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its originality consists of working with Expertons, an instrument which maintains the information of all studied experts intact in order to obtain a better result. From this, a model which captures and measures the level of importance of each of the SWOT factors is developed.

En este trabajo de investigación se ha estudiado la influencia a nivel visual de los elementos que configuran un anuncio turístico. El propósito de este estudio es determinar la efectividad de las técnicas neurocientíficas para captar el nivel atencional de la publicidad turística. Con la intención de lograr este fin se diseñó un experimento mixto donde se utilizaron tecnologías de seguimiento ocular además de un cuestionario auto administrado el cual los usuarios completaban una vez finalizada la prueba. Algunos resultados revelan que el patrón que sigue la mirada de un individuo determina la mayor aceptación del anuncio por parte de los participantes. Cuando un patrón de mirada se repite en un grupo de participantes heterogéneo esto indica que efectivamente ese anuncio es el que ha conseguido captar la atención más eficientemente que el resto de anuncios estudiados. La presente investigación contribuye a validar la utilidad de la aplicación de tecnologías de medida neurocomportamentales como herramienta para conocer los factores que captan la atención de un individuo visionando publicidad en turismo. Así mismo los hallazgos sugieren que existe una línea interesante de investigación aplicada al turismo fundamentada en la posibilidad de “pre-neuroevaluar” los contenidos de cara a mejorar los procesos de creación de futuros anuncios en el sector.
