How Sense of Ritual in Tourism Impacts Tourists’Co-Creation of Tourism Experience Values:A Study Based on the Theory of Value Co-Creation

Establishing a sense of ritual within tourism consumption scenarios offers tourists the opportunity for interactive engagement.Drawing upon the value co-creation theory,this study constructed an influence mechanism model to examine tourists'active engagement in the process of co-creating tourism experience values.It employed Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling(PLS-SEM)to empirically test the proposed hypotheses.The findings demonstrate that the model constructed in the present study exhibits robust reliability,validity,and explanatory power.The perception of the sense of ritual in tourism exerts a significant positive influence on tourists’co-creation of tourism experience values,thereby significantly enhancing both the communitas and flow experienced by tourists during their travels.Moreover,such communitas and flow can mediate the influence of the sense of ritual in tourism on tourists’co-creation of tourism experience values.This study contributes to advancing the current research on tourists’co-creation of tourism experience values and the sense of ritual in tourism,thereby providing theoretical foundations for cultivating a sense of ritual within tourism consumption scenarios.

A Study on the Factors Influencing Value-Added in the Cruise Ship Value Chain Based on the DEMATEL-ISM Model

Cruise value chain is to take the exchange of cruise products and services as the core in a certain spatial scope,and enterprises with core advantages within or between different industries establish associations in accordance with certain technical and economic conditions,so as to realise the multi-dimensional extension and value appreciation of the cruise value chain in the vertical and horizontal links,and ultimately establish a chain-network type of enterprise strategic alliance.This paper tries to analyse the value-added factors of the cruise industry chain by constructing a multi-level hierarchical structural model with reference to the influencing factor analysis methods of relevant literature-DEMATEL(Decision Making Experiment and Evaluation Experiment)and ISM(Interpretative Structural Model).The study shows that the innovation and scale value-added module in the upstream of the cruise industry chain is the core module of value-added of the whole cruise industry chain,and the value-added mainly originates from the design and manufacturing of cruise ships.The middle reaches of the cruise industry chain are mainly cruise operation enterprises,and the specificity of cruise operation determines that its brand value-added is mainly accomplished through the global layout of multinational corporations,and the cruise brand is able to drive the consumption demand and has value-added ability.The downstream value-added of the cruise industry chain is mainly realised through the increase in profits of cruise tourism service products.

Impact of learning through credit and value creation on the efficiency of Japanese commercial banks

This study investigates the learning curve of commercial banks regarding the efficiency of credit and value creation.However,current empirical methods for accessing the learning curve in organizations are not suitable for use in financial institutions.Considering bank-specific characteristics,we introduce a dynamic learning curve using a cost function adjusted to capture learning-by-doing in banks.Using the model,we test several hypotheses on the impact of bank intermediary experience(learning)on the efficiency of credit and value creation in Japanese commercial banks.The findings show that bank intermediary learning significantly improves the cost efficiency gain in the gross value created,total credit created,and investment.However,bank intermediary experience has no significant effect on the efficiency of the economic value created for all the banks analyzed.These findings have practical implications for evaluating cost dynamics in bank credit and value creation,risk management,lending to the real sector,and shareholder value creation.

The AOR-Base Splitting Modified Fixed Point Iteration for Solving Absolute Value Equations

Recently,Yu et al.presented a modified fixed point iterative(MFPI)method for solving large sparse absolute value equation(AVE).In this paper,we consider using accelerated overrelaxation(AOR)splitting to develop the modified fixed point iteration(denoted by MFPI-JS and MFPI-GSS)methods for solving AVE.Furthermore,the convergence analysis of the MFPI-JS and MFPI-GSS methods for AVE are also studied under suitable restrictions on the iteration parameters,and the functional equation between the parameter T and matrix Q.Finally,numerical examples show that the MFPI-JS and MFPI-GSS are efficient iteration methods.

Using a choice experiment to select the basket of improving the air quality in Chongqing, China

Air quality has a significant relationship with our life. Residents are concerned with the environment issue of Chongqing, which used to be one of major industrial cities in China. We choose the air quality of Chongqing as the research object, valued by choice experiment model with designed questionnaires, to discuss the best approach of improving the air quality. Firstly, the paper introduces the representative methods of the stated preferences: CVM and choice experiment(CE). The choice experiment(CE) could be designed in a series of situations with many different attributes to test the relative values among the attributes, which are the evidences of ranking importance of the attributes. Because the improvement of air quality is affected by multiple factors, the technique is better at valuing the economical impacts. Once the attributes and levels are decided, profiles and choice sets can be designed. We can also collect data through questionnaires and use the conditional logit model to evaluate the improvement of air quality in Chongqing. The result shows the relative importance of the elements selected to evaluate the improvement of urban air quality. In a word, this research has important practical value to better the air quality.

On the variability of vertical eddy heat flux in the upper ocean

Ocean eddies produce strong vertical heat flux(VHF)in the upper ocean,exerting profound influences on the climate and ecosystem.Currently,mooring array provides a standard way to estimate the eddy-induced VHF(EVHF)based on the adiabatic potential density equation.Apart from the validity of adiabatic assumption,it remains unclear to what extent the estimated EVHF at a single location within a limited time period is representative of its climatological mean value.In this study,we analyzed the above issue by systematically evaluating the variability of EVHF simulated by a 1-km ocean model configured over the Kuroshio Extension.It is found that the EVHF at a single location exhibits pronounced variability.Even averaged over one year that is comparable to the current maintenance capacity of mooring array,the EVHF still deviates significantly from its climatological mean value.For more than 49%of locations in our computational domain(31°-40°N,149°-166°E),the discrepancy between the one-year mean EVHF and its climatological mean value at the peaking depth is larger than the climatological mean itself.The mesoscale eddies play a dominant role in the variability of EVHF but contribute little to the climatological mean EVHF;the opposite is true for submesoscale eddies.Our findings indicate that nested mooring array allowing for isolating the effects of submesoscale eddies will be useful to obtain climatological mean EVHF.

Analysis on the Regional Features of Coda Attenuation Before and After the 1992 Qina (M_S= 5.4, 5.1) Earthquakes in WYEPSA

Using the theoretical model of coda scattering from local earthquakes, we have studied the features of time-space variations of the attenuation rate β of coda amplitude and coda Qc-1 values before and after the Qina earthquakes (MS5.4 and MS5.1) in Dec. 1992 in West Yunnan Earthquake Prediction Study Area (WYEPSA). The study results show that the attenuation rate of coda amplitude has remarkable regional inhomogeneity in the near-field (△ 【50 km) around the main shock: β = 0.0076 s-1 and Qc-1 = 0.0056 during the main shock while (3 = 0.0209 s-1 and Qc-1 = 0.0153 during the aftershock. The Qc-1 value shows an approximate 3-foid variation before and after the main shock. We have also obtained the regional averages of β = 0.0235 s-1 and Qc-1 = 0.0153, which show that the coda attenuation in surrounding areas (△ 】 50 km) far away from the epicenter of the main shock did not change much before and after the main shock. The evolution of Qc-1 values of the main seismic sequence with time has passed

Trust model based on individual experience

To improve the accuracy of node trust evaluation in a distributed network, a trust model based on the experience of individuals is proposed, which establishes a new trust assessment system by introducing the experience factor and the comparative experience factor. The new evaluation system considers the differences between individuals and interactive histories between nodes, which solves the problem that nodes have inaccurate assessments due to the asymmetry of nodes to a certain extent. The algorithm analysis indicates that the new model uses different deviating values of tolerance evaluation for different individuals and uses different updating values embodying node individuation when updating feedback credibility of individuals, which evaluates the trust value more reasonably and more accurately. In addition, the proposed algorithm can be used in various trust models and has a good scalability.

酒店住宿体验中的价值共创机制研究

新一代信息技术革命和体验经济来临,酒店服务围绕着价值共创理念开始更新,但实践中取得的价值共创效果并未达到预期。其根本原因在于对酒店环境下住宿体验价值共创的目标尚不清晰,对共创活动的推进过程和必要条件研究不足。鉴于此,文章以顾客体验为分析单位透视互动共创的住宿系统,通过扎根理论方法揭示价值共创机制。研究发现:(1)酒店住宿中的共创价值不局限于顾客中心,而是由顾客向外围扩散,形成由个体价值、关系价值和情境价值组成的价值体系;(2)共创价值的产生一般经过体验前的期待有形、体验中的互动响应和体验后的体验分享阶段;(3)有形性、响应度和分享力在各阶段的价值共创中起着关键作用。文章规避了对价值共创理论的直接跨领域移植,立足酒店住宿情境的独特性和具体性生成价值共创模型,有望推进相关理论认识,并为酒店共创实践提供启发。

旅游虚拟社区用户心流体验对价值共创的影响研究

旅游虚拟社区是用户实现分享旅游经历、获取旅游资讯和寻找出游同伴等功能的重要平台,也是企业实现精准营销的重要手段。企业和用户在虚拟社区共同投入、共同产出价值的过程称为价值共创。心流体验作为完全投入和集中注意力的积极心理状态,会影响用户与企业的契合程度,进而影响企业与用户之间的价值共创。文章通过对旅游虚拟社区用户数据进行采集与实证分析,揭示了用户心流体验对价值共创的影响机制。结果表明:内部动机和外部动机对用户产生的积极心理状态有显著正向影响;用户的积极心理状态及其与企业的契合程度对价值共创均有积极影响,且顾客与企业的契合程度在心流体验和价值共创过程中起部分中介作用。据此,文章提出了旅游虚拟社区企业可以通过提升用户参与动机,激发用户积极心理状态,强化顾客与企业之间密切关系,推动价值共创持续发展,实现引流交易和精准营销等管理启示。
