By expanding the Extended Parallel Process Model, this research investigates the role of trust in hotels in impacting consumers’ perceptions of threat and coping efficacy. These perceptions, in turn, influence consumers’ fear perceptions and drive both adaptive behaviors (e.g., protective action and seeking help) and maladaptive behaviors (e.g., avoidance). Ultimately, the disclosure of personal information is strongly influenced by avoidance and, to some extent, by seeking help behaviors, but not by protective action behaviors. As the first study to examine consumers’ disclosure of personal information to generative AI, it extends the literature on processing arguments related to opaque systems like generative AI. Additionally, it provides insightful managerial implications, especially at a time when the hotel industry lacks clear guidance regarding the use of consumers’ personal information within generative AI.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48444,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Hospitality Management","volume":"124 ","pages":"Article 103965"},"PeriodicalIF":9.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142532770","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 employees’ devaluation of customers (EDC) as an indicator of the social learning of LKH-C. To understand the trickle effects of knowledge hiding toward customers from supervisors to FSEs, we introduce leader–member exchange (LMX) as a first-stage moderator that can intensify the influence of negative role modeling and moral identity (MI) as a second-stage moderator that can “break the cycle” of top-down knowledge hiding. We collected time-lagged data (i.e., responses from FSEs at three different time points) from three- to five-star-ranked hotels in the eastern province of Saudi Arabia (<em>N</em> = 379). We found that LKH-C stimulates EKH-C through EDC. We also noted that the indirect effect of LKH-C on EKH-C via EDC could be intensified at high LMX and that FSEs with high-MI could break the cycle of top-down knowledge hiding behavior. From the perspective of social learning theory (i.e., cognitive processes), we aim to understand whether, how, and when FSEs observing LKH-C engages in EKH-C at high vs. low values of LMX and MI.

Conversely, recovery efforts by human staff or a competent robot boost customer forgiveness and satisfaction in response to outcome failures triggered by robots. In addition, perceived role congruity acts as a mediator in the above interaction effects. Moreover, proactive recovery moderates these effects.
