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}

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).

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.
