Based on a sequential design, this study used a customized mixed-method approach involving video-elicitation focus group interviews with 28 interviewees and two scenario-based experiments with 920 participants. The analysis of interviews highlighted two nuanced forms of IoT-driven service encounters among various IoT applications, such as self-service and employee assistance. Accordingly, experimental studies were designed and further verified that employee assistance positively impacted customers' booking intentions. Moreover, psychological intimacy and perceived usefulness were identified as parallel mediators explaining the mechanism behind the main effect. The positive influence of employee assistance on booking intentions was negligible for customers with high social phobia. This research demonstrates an early attempt to explore how customers' classifications and preferences for various IoT application types influence their subsequent hotel booking intentions. The findings offer practical guidance for tourism and hospitality practitioners by underscoring the need for tailor-made operational strategies and marketing campaigns aimed at diverse IoT promotions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51445,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hospitality and Tourism Management","volume":"64 ","pages":"Article 101307"},"PeriodicalIF":7.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144622396","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}

Moreover, both sociological and critical thinking skills serve as mediators and substantially amplify the indirect impact of scientific literacy on sustainable tourism awareness. In summary, integrating scientific literacy with sociological and critical thinking skills can substantially enhance awareness about sustainable tourism among younger tourists. The study results could be applied to develop public policies, design educational curricula, formulate business strategies, and strengthen community initiatives.

Hence, customers' commitment is necessary even amidst uncertain immediate results.

The results reveal that subjective norms significantly and positively influence career attitudes. Transformational leadership not only strengthens employees' career attitudes and intentions but also moderates the relationship between subjective norms and career attitudes, amplifying their positive effect. Additionally, favourable career attitudes strongly predict employees' career intentions, underscoring the importance of cultivating positive perceptions to enhance employee commitment. The findings offer practical implications for the hospitality and tourism (H&T) industry, particularly across collectivist (e.g., African and Asian countries) and individualist (e.g., U.S., Australia, Canada, and Europe) contexts.
