However, the impact of AR utilization on the mental processes of visitors during their engagement with historical representations, along with its subsequent impact on visitor satisfaction, remains underexplored. The research reported here, comprising six studies, demonstrates that AR utilization fostered historical museum tourists' perception of intertemporal connectedness, which inspired them and elevated their satisfaction. This investigation into visitors' mental processes contributes a novel perspective to our understanding of AR's role in heritage tourism. By demonstrating that the positive impact of AR is contingent upon visit context (e.g., time constraints), destination features (e.g., integrity of artifacts), and tourist traits (e.g., technological anxiety), this research offers insights regarding how to strategically deploy AR in heritage tourism.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48469,"journal":{"name":"Tourism Management","volume":"108 ","pages":"Article 105096"},"PeriodicalIF":10.9,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142757647","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}

This study extends the literature by finding that one situation involves single interaction between gender and religious identities, producing either gender-focused intersectional marginalisation that was amplified by Islamic cultural practices or religion-focused intersectional marginalisation that was amplified by the female gender identity, while another situation generates gender-focused and religion-focused intersectional marginalisation simultaneously.

Conceptualized on visual information processing, this research comprises two studies employing bottom-up and top-down processing. It confirms that the type of content in AI-generated images, specifically “Food Presentation” versus “Preparation Process,” significantly influences consumers' perceptions of food quality and their purchasing intentions. This effect is moderated by consumers' knowledge of climate-conscious food and their level of environmental concern. By providing empirical evidence analyzed through multivariate statistical techniques, this study offers valuable practical and theoretical insights into how AI can promote climate-conscious food, thereby advancing sustainable gastronomy tourism.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48469,"journal":{"name":"Tourism Management","volume":"108 ","pages":"Article 105093"},"PeriodicalIF":10.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142691111","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}
