Nonetheless, existing forecasting models have neglected dynamic nature of spatial dependence. Furthermore, frequently used long short-term memory models often ignore spatial heterogeneity and are prone to overfitting in tourism contexts. To address these shortcomings, dynamic spatial-temporal convolutional network is proposed in this study. In this model, the spatial-temporal attention mechanism and convolution modules are employed to extract dynamic spatiotemporal dependencies and spatial heterogeneity. Based on two datasets with different time granularities, this empirical study shows that the proposed model outperforms baseline models. The results confirm that incorporating dynamic spatial dependencies and spatial heterogeneity can significantly improve predictive performance.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48452,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Tourism Research","volume":"110 ","pages":"Article 103871"},"PeriodicalIF":10.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142657513","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}

However, little is known about the factors that make tourism corporate donations more effective in generating positive consumer reactions. Across three experiments, this research shows that consumers tend to respond more favorably to a donation amount presented in a rounded format (e.g., $500,000) than a precise one (e.g., $501,327) because a rounded numerical format triggers individuals' higher levels of other-praising affective reactions (Studies 1 and 2). However, this effect does not hold for small-sized firms (Study 3). The research offers novel theoretical implications for tourism corporate philanthropy and insights for managers.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48452,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Tourism Research","volume":"110 ","pages":"Article 103864"},"PeriodicalIF":10.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142657514","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}

Safe transitional spaces facilitate individuals' role transition from that of refugee to a (formerly enjoyed) tourist role. Results from field research and interviews carried out in a spa-town close to a war-torn country, both with tourism stakeholders and refugees/guests, helped us to elaborate the concept of hospidarity.

The analysis of the results yielded a four-class model which showed different substitution behaviors during unpleasant weather conditions, making clear that decisions are based on complex trade-offs and lead to significant behavioral changes under climate change conditions.
