This study adopts the Stimulus - Organism - Response framework to examine how the interaction between advertising content strategies (ACS) and future time perspective (FTP) influences older tourists' travel intention in wellness tourism. Grounded in socioemotional selectivity theory and advertising typology, two scenario-based experiments were conducted to reveal a significant matching effect: transformational ACS are more persuasive for tourists with limited FTP, while informational ACS work better for those with open FTP. This effect is partially mediated by perceived hedonic and utilitarian value and further moderated by the advertising source. The contextually congruent combinations of ACS, FTP, perceived value, and advertising source can trigger distinct psychological pathway mechanisms and enhance older tourists' travel intention, offering strategic guidance for targeting older tourists through precision marketing in wellness tourism.
The motivational dimensions of volunteer tourists have been a focal point of scholarly debate, closely aligning with their prosocial orientations. Limited attention has been given to examining these relationships through the lens of identity formation among young tourists. To address this gap, this study conducted a two-wave longitudinal investigation into the linkage between volunteer tourists’ self-determined motivation and their prosocial orientation, with identity processing styles serving as a mediator. The sample (n = 291) consisted of freshmen and sophomores participating in a volunteer teaching program during the summer of 2024. We measured the variables of interest both before and after their attendance. In addition to direct effects, our findings observed two significant indirect pathways: (1) Wave 1 autonomous motivation was positively associated with an informational identity style at Wave 1, which predicted Wave 2 other-oriented helping tendency; and (2) Wave 1 controlled motivation was positively related to a normative identity style at Wave 1, which accounted for self-oriented helping propensity at Wave 2. Furthermore, the first relationship was uni-directional, as the coefficient for the reverse pathway (i.e., Wave 1 other-oriented helping → Wave 1 informational identity style → Wave 2 autonomous motivation) was not significant. In contrast, the second relationship was bi-directional, wherein Wave 1 self-oriented helping was positively associated with a normative identity style at Wave 1, which subsequently predicted Wave 2 controlled motivation. Taken together, our study contributes to the literature on altruistic motives, prosocial behavior, identity development, and volunteer tourism.
With the rise in short-term intercultural mobility programs, enhancing students’ adaptive capacity through structured experiential learning has become a key concern. Using constructivist grounded theory, this study draws on extending the situated learning and embodied cognition theories as analytical frameworks to explore international students’ cross-cultural adaptation within the context of study tours. It develops a three-phase framework (pre-departure, on-site immersion, and post-tour reflection) to trace their transition from cultural distance to adaptation. The findings reveal that the process through which international students shift from cross-cultural distance to multidimensional adaptation can be further accelerated by environmental settings, situational behaviors, and short-term emotional responses within study tour contexts. Moreover, culture-led and nature-led environments evoke distinct patterns of participation and emotional responses, facilitating varying degrees and dimensions of adaptation across psychological, social, and cultural domains. The study extends situated and embodied learning perspectives by conceptualizing study tours as dynamic, context-sensitive learning sites. By considering adaptation processes context-dependent, this study deepens the understanding of how learning, emotion, and environment interact to shape intercultural development and offers practical insights for designing responsive, stage-sensitive study tour programs.
Travel vlogs are increasingly acknowledged as a crucial medium for influencing the image of tourism destinations. Therefore, how to promote positive perceptions of tourism destination images among potential tourists has emerged as a critical challenge for destination marketers. A total of 331 valid samples were collected through questionnaire surveys. Based on the elaboration likelihood model and structural equation modeling methods, this study examines how the information cues of travel vlogs (i.e. travel vlog attributes and vlogger characteristics) affect viewers' perceptions of tourism destination image. The findings of this study indicate that: (1) perceived usefulness mediates the relationship between travel vlog attributes, source credibility, and tourism destination image; (2) similarly, perceived enjoyment acts as a mediator in the relationship among travel vlog attributes, source credibility, and tourism destination image; (3) the pathways "perceived usefulness -> flow experience" and "perceived enjoyment -> flow experience" respectively play a chain mediating roles between the information cues of travel vlogs and tourism destination image. This study clarifies how travel vlog information cues shape perceptions of tourism destination images, providing theoretical insights and practical implications for destination marketing.
The objective of urban recreational transportation networks in supporting urban recreational spatial distribution, layout of urban leisure facilities, urban planning, and urban recreation service level is significant. In addition to being a typical leisure city, Xiamen is a significant tourism city in China. This article is composed of information gathered from multiple sources, including "public transportation IC card data", "GPS arrival data of public transportation", and "static route station information of public transportation" in Xiamen City. Here, we build a support vector machine model and evaluate KNN and DTs approaches using ticket price, first bus time, maximum departure frequency, final bus time, lowest departure frequency, and the number of stations in the buffer zone as eigenvalues. The findings revealed that the SVM model beat the other two approaches with 96.1% accuracy, 96.4% AUC, 87.5% KNN model accuracy, 92.1% AUC, and 75.7% DTs model accuracy. The classification method of this study can quickly and effectively identify recreational routes in cities, helping urban managers optimize the recreational public transportation network, exploring urban recreational people's time and space travel rules, and providing empirical basis for urban recreational spatial layout and functional zoning.
The rapid development of virtual tourism is an opportunity for cultural heritage sites. This study combines the means-end chain theory with the Kano model to explore cultural heritage sites' virtual tourism attributes, benefits, and values. We obtained 29 attributes, 23 benefits, and 14 values of virtual tourism, then discussed the hierarchical relationship among the attributes, benefits, and values. Also, the 29 attributes were classified according to their impact on user satisfaction. The results show that virtual tourism attributes can be divided into four aspects. In addition to the technical attributes, people often attach more importance to the content attributes as their basic requirements. Convenience is the core value of virtual tourism, followed by learning, entertainment, immersion, uniqueness, the sense of novelty,comfort and the sense of participation. It expands and deepens the theoretical framework of virtual tourism and provides theoretical guidance for developing and marketing virtual tourism products/services in cultural heritage sites.

Climate change and biodiversity loss have become increasingly prominent in recent years. To evaluate these two issues, prediction models have been developed on the basis of ecological-niche (or climate-envelope) models. However, the spatial scale and extent of the underlying environmental data are known to affect results. To verify whether the difference in the modelled spatial extent will affect model results, this study uses the MaxEnt model to predict the suitability range of giant pandas in the Min Mountain System (MMS) area through modelling performed (1) at a nationwide scale and (2) at a restricted MMS extent. The results show that, firstly, both models performed well in terms of accuracy. Secondly, extending the modelling extent does help improve the modelling results when the distribution data is incomplete. Thirdly, when environmental information is insufficient, the qualitative analysis should be combined with quantitative analysis to ensure the accuracy and practicality of the research. Finally, when predicting a suitability distribution of giant pandas, the modelling results under different spatial extents can provide management agencies at the various administrative levels with more targeted giant panda protective measures.

China has grown into the world’s largest tourist source market and its huge tourism activities and resulting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are particularly becoming a concern in the context of global climate warming. To depict the trajectory of carbon emissions, a long-range energy alternatives planning system (LEAP)-Tourist model, consisting of two scenarios and four sub-scenarios, was established for observing and predicting tourism greenhouse gas peaks in China from 2017 to 2040. The results indicate that GHG emissions will peak at 1048.01 million-ton CO2 equivalent (Mt CO2e) in 2033 under the integrated (INT) scenario. Compared with the business as usual (BAU) scenario, INT will save energy by 24.21% in 2040 and reduce energy intensity from 0.4979 tons of CO2 equivalent/104 yuan (TCO2e/104 yuan) to 0.3761 Tce/104 yuan. Although the INT scenario has achieved promising effects of energy saving and carbon reduction, the peak year 2033 in the tourist industry is still later than China’s expected peak year of 2030. This is due to the growth potential and moderate carbon control measures in the tourist industry. Thus, in order to keep the tourist industry in synchronization with China’s peak goals, more stringent measures are needed, e.g., the promotion of clean fuel shuttle buses, the encouragement of low carbon tours, the cancelation of disposable toiletries and the recycling of garbage resources. The results of this simulation study will help set GHG emission peak targets in the tourist industry and formulate a low carbon roadmap to guide carbon reduction actions in the field of GHG emissions with greater certainty.
