- Approaches to personal transformation in tourism researchPublication . Zhang, Xiaoyu (Nancy); Scott, Noel; Campos, Ana CláudiaThe study of tourism transformation is evolving with five different research streams identifiable, studying personal transformation, social transformation, transformative service design, and transformation related to destinations or tourism as a whole. This paper examines the evolution of these five approaches and contrasts their disciplines, theory and assumptions through a review of 310 journal articles. Each of these five approaches views the ‘self’ as the object that is transformed with variations within them as to what aspects of the self-change. The key issue then is how the self is interrelated with the ‘triggers’ of transformation. In this review, three triggers commonly identified (meaning, emotion, and reflection) are examined in detail. Understanding how personal transformation occurs is vital as topics, such as experience design, transformative tourism services and societal transformation are based on this.
- A bibliometric analysis: wine tourism in the sectorPublication . Gómez-Carmona, Diego; Marín-Dueñas, Pedro Pablo; Correia, Marisol B.; Escobar, Marta Toribio; de Matos, Nelson Manuel da Silva; Cruces-Montes, Serafín JesúsThe term “wine tourism” was first used in 90’s from Australia. The definition of ecotourism has been studied by many academics throughout its history, reaching the conclusion that it is the activities carried out by people outside their usual environment in a given period of time related to the viticulture of the environment and wine. This study aims to enhance knowledge in the wine tourism field by employing bibliometric methods to quantitatively analyze its evolution over the past two decades. This analysis shows that from 2019 onwards, publications increased considerably, reaching a peak in 2020, mostly (linking with COVID-19 lockdown). In the areas of geography and economics, as research in the area of tourism is still very recent. The conceptual analysis shows the variety of terms used by researchers and how they have evolved over time, the most commonly used being "touristic" and "vineyard", with others appearing such as "meal" connected to "winery waste" or "tourism development", which are more akin to current management.
- Broadening tourism experience and destination imagePublication . Martins Guerreiro, Maria Manuela; Pinto, Patrícia; Bagheri, Fatemeh; de Matos, Nelson Manuel da SilvaAlthough previous studies deal with tourism experience, destination image and related outcomes, this study innovates by elaborating on a more comprehensive view of the tourism experience and destination image. Guided by suggestions for more research in the relevant literature, this study examines the correlation between tourism experience, experiential destination image, tourism memory, satisfaction and loyalty and explores domestic and international tourists. The data were collected from tourists visiting the Algarve, Portugal, in 2021. A multi-group analysis determined the main differences between domestic and international tourists. The results show that the tourist experience has five dimensions: active learning, emotional engagement, passive entertainment, immersive escape, and aesthetic appeal. Furthermore, tourism experiences of both domestic and international tourists positively affect the cognitive image of the Algarve. There is a significant difference among domestic and international tourists regarding the impact of tourism memory on tourists' loyalty. Theoretical and managerial implications, limitations, and potential directions for future research are discussed.
- Editorial 48Publication . Gato, Maria Assunção; Cruz, Ana RitaThe thematic dossier in this issue 48 holds special significance for the journal CIDADES, Comunidades e Territórios (CITIES, Communities and Territories). It pays a modest tribute to one of its founders, Vítor Matias Ferreira, who passed away a year ago. The dossier includes a collection of testimonies from people who closely followed part of his research journey in urban studies, as well as from the person who helped him establish and strengthen this journal, which we value deeply. A limited number of testimonies will inevitably fall short of capturing the full impact of someone who was actively involved in civic and intellectual life throughout his career, influencing multiple generations. However, as preserving collective memories becomes increasingly crucial in our fast-paced, information-overloaded era that often fosters social apathy, we hope this dossier will spark interest in Vítor Matias Ferreira’s work among younger generations. This would be one of the greatest tributes we can offer him.
- Editorial 49Publication . Baião Gato, Maria Assunção; Cruz, Ana RitaIssue 49 of CIDADES, Comunidades e Territórios (CITIES, Communities and Territories) features a thematic dossier titled “Between the digital and the urban: readings of the changing space” coordinated by Isabel Carvalho, Sílvia Leiria Viegas, Adriana Nascimento, and Tamara Egler. Digital media are increasingly reshaping how urban life is experienced, represented, and studied. This dossier offers a glimpse into these transformations through 6 articles, 2 essays, and 3 additional contributions exploring the relationship between technology, art and politics. Overall, the authors reflect on how technopower and polarization dynamics take place, namely with reference to a few case studies, while discussing how urban resistance and reconfiguration can be organized around collective initiatives and social movements. These contributions underscore how digital media can enable new forms of knowledge production and civic engagement, inviting researchers to reconsider the boundaries between analysis, intervention, and collaboration in contemporary urban studies.
- Factors influencing the choice of the Algarve region as a tourist destination: does season matter?Publication . Barreira, Ana Paula; Cesário, MarisaThe dissimilar ways in which tourists assess the attributes of a tourism destination in different seasons is an issue scarcely addressed in the literature. Here, we show that the characteristics of a tourism destination (the Algarve region, Portugal) are rated differently in peak (summer) and off‐peak (autumn/winter) seasons. Nationality is decisive in explaining the different assessments between seasons of the factors that group subsets of 17 attributes of the tourism destination. In general, the factors that are rated higher by domestic tourists during the summer are the same as those that are rated higher by foreign tourists in the autumn/winter.
- From destination attributes to tourist satisfaction: novelty-seeking as a bridge between liminality and place attachmentPublication . Lança, Milene; Nobre Pereira, Luis; Silva, joão; Andraz, Jorge; Cunha Sousa Nunes, Rui JoséThis study analyses how destination attributes influence tourist satisfaction via perceived quality, price, and safety, and how these relationships differ by novelty-seeking orientation. Framed at the intersection of liminality and place attachment, novelty-seeking is conceptualised as the behavioural mechanism linking extraordinary experiences to emotional bonds with place, offering the first empirical integration of these frameworks in tourism research. Using data from 1,488 tourists visiting the Algarve (Portugal) in 2022–2023 and Partial Least Squares Multigroup Analysis (PLS-MGA), the results show that for conservative tourists, destination attributes enhance perceived quality, lower perceived prices and safety concerns, and increase satisfaction. For adventurous tourists, satisfaction is driven mainly by perceived price and is negatively affected by in situ safety concerns, indicating that novelty-seekers do not uniformly discount risk. The findings highlight how novelty-seeking conditions cognitive pathways to satisfaction and inform market segmentation strategies aligned with distinct motivational orientations.
- Glamping in low-density territories: the case of Santo Aleixo da RestauraçãoPublication . Teixeira, Fernando José; Ruxho, Filipos; Palma, Carolina; Beha, Fejzulla; Soares Pinheiro Vieira Pescada, SusanaThe promotion of tourism in rural areas, in a sustainable and appealing manner, through the specification and diversification of tourist offerings, becomes fundamental for the valorization, visibility, and notoriety of the communities living in these spaces. This study analyzes a new concept of tourist activity, Glamping, whose mission is to promote territories in a sustainable and socially appealing way, where the articulation of natural heritage with tourism seeks to contribute to making territories and rural spaces more charming. In this context, this study emerges with the purpose of investigating "How does investment in enriching the tourist accommodation offer, particularly through the Glamping option, constitute an added value for the local development of an Alentejo village?" It was based on the need to identify the direction of change that a strategic analysis of a tourist project in rural areas was carried out, aiming to formulate recommendations with intervention proposals to support its implementation. The study thus sought to inquire about the strategic challenges and associated objectives, the actors involved, the conflicts, and alliances around these objectives, using the ACtors, Objectives, Force Relations Method (Saragoça et al., 2017 and Pescada, 2019) and resorting to the combination of different data collection techniques (interviews and documentary research) and analysis (PESTEL and SWOT). The results of the strategic analysis revealed that: the main alliances are structured around the objectives "contribute to a more sustainable tourism, aiming at the preservation and conservation of all natural and cultural heritage" and "create new jobs," with strong mobilization from the Local Authority, the Social Center, and the Regional Development Administration; the Local Development Association stands out as the most influential actor, and among the less dependent actors, the Social Center emerges, which, being a local institution, is largely unaffected by the influences of the actors involved. Observing some constraints, especially where trends that jeopardize the implementation and sustainability of the project intersect with the acquisition of financial and human resources, led to formulating as strategic recommendations the need for an economic and social feasibility study and the creation of partnerships and alliances among local and regional actors
- How do spectator-to-spectator negative interactions lead to a less memorable and recommended sport tourism experience through internal attention and involvement?Publication . Martins, Rute; Monteiro, Patrícia; Campos, Ana Cláudia; Sthapit, Erose; Mascarenhas, MargaridaPurpose – On-site tourist experience co-creation enhances memorability, and the latter precedes tourists’ intention to revisit and recommend the experience/destination to others. However, tourists’ interaction is not always perceived as positive, co-destroying experience value. This study aims to examine the influence of experience value co-destruction on sport tourists’ future behavioral intentions, considering the mediating effects of internal attention, involvement and memorability. Design/methodology/approach – Data were gathered from 254 non-resident spectators at Tudor Nazare´ Tow Surfing Challenge event in Portugal. Findings – The results showed that value co-destruction during a sport tourism experience negatively influences spectators’ internal attention and involvement, which further impacts their memorability and behavioral intentions. Practical implications – Sport event managers should minimize and reverse negative sport tourists’ interactions to enhance the spectators’ attention and involvement in the experience. In addition, to boost the memorability and behavioral intentions, spectators’ involvement should be prioritized through leveraging sport culture and event-generated liminality. Originality/value – This study expanded the research lens of co-destruction of tourist experience value by integrating cognitive psychology and behavioral outcomes, validating the on-site tourist experience co-creation model to co-destruction and extending it to behavioral intentions.
- Measuring the effect of deprivation on primary health care performance using data envelopment analysis and Malmquist IndicesPublication . Merelie, Holly Bea; Amado, Carla; Pereira dos Santos, SérgioLife expectancy is typically shorter in areas with higher deprivation, highlighting the need for policymakers and health care managers to focus on reducing health inequalities through efficient and effective care. This study aims to assess the impact of deprivation on primary health care performance using data from the National Health Service (NHS) in England. Two methods are applied: Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to evaluate the performance of 188 Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs), whose duties were recently taken on by the new Integrated Care Systems (ICSs), and the Malmquist Index (MI) to assess deprivation’s effect on performance. The DEA results reveal significant variation among CCGs in equity, efficiency, and effectiveness, indicating substantial room for improvement. The MI results show that while CCGs in more deprived areas had more resources per capita and higher efficiency, they were generally less effective than those in less deprived areas. This emphasizes the need to enhance health and social policies to address persistent health inequalities due to deprivation, a critical challenge for the new ICSs. This study illustrates how DEA and the MI can support policymakers and managers in this effort.
