- Challenges for tourism-related lifestyle migrant entrepreneurship in rural areas of the Algarve, PortugalPublication . Torkington, Kate; Eimermann, Marco; Perdigão Alexandre Ribeiro, Filipa; Conceição, SusanaMany rural areas in southern Europe have long suffered from outward migration but have recently been attracting new types of in-migration. This includes lifestyle migrant entrepreneurs (LMEs) seeking ways of improving their own quality of life and, at the same time, bringing new projects which aim to build on the potential and resources for rural tourism in their chosen destination place. Drawing on data from in-depth research interviews with LMEs and other stakeholders, this article stems from a research project focused on exploring tourism-related entrepreneurial lifestyle migration in the rural Algarve, in southern Portugal. Although this type of migration has often been identified as a potential driver for the sustainable development of both tourism activities and rural areas, this study focuses on the challenges identified, principally by the LMEs themselves, as regards the setting up, operationalisation and continuing activities of tourism-related businesses in rural areas of the Algarve. A variety of challenges were detected, at the micro-, meso- and macro-levels of the entrepreneurial migration process. The most recurrent problem faced is the level of bureaucracy and the difficulties encountered in legal processes. Although this is sometimes due to the language barrier, it is also related to the lack of clear information on procedures and the lack of specialised support. This finding points to the need for a greater level of cooperation and communication among the various stakeholders to ensure a more sustainable development of tourism in these rural areas.
- Examining the antecedents and outcomes of satisfaction in film festival context: further evidence of validity of the eudaimonic feelings constructPublication . Medeiros, Sandro Alves de; Campos, Ana Cláudia; Sthapit, Erose; Freitas, Lara Brunelle Almeida; Mondo, Tiago SaviWithin festivals and events, film festivals are among the fastest growing cultural events in the world and are recognised as bringing environmental, sociocultural and economic benefits to host tourism destinations including enhanced well-being. These festivals are an important marketing strategy for developing destination image and attracting interest towards a destination. However, there are limited studies on the film festival experience exploring the antecedents of participants’ satisfaction. This study examines the relationship between eudaimonic feelings, novelty, local culture, nostalgia, perceived quality, satisfaction, and behavioural intentions. Data were gathered during the last 3 days of the Penedo Film in the City of Penedo, Northeast Brazil using a questionnaire. A total of 97 valid questionnaires were collected from the festival attendees. Findings show that only eudaimonic feelings and perceived quality are predictors of satisfaction. To the best of authors knowledge, this study is the first to examine the perceived experience of participants in a film festival context from a positive psychology perspective and providing further empirical support for construct validity of eudaimonic feelings. The findings contribute to the existing tourism literature on film festivals by identifying key antecedents (eudaimonic feelings and perceived quality) and outcomes (behavioural intentions) of satisfaction with film festival. One of the main managerial implications includes engaging film festival participants in co-creation processes and in promoting group discussions about a specific movie with an appealing and social relevant theme.
- Stroke rehabilitation pathways during the first year: A cost-effectiveness analysis from a cohort of 460 individualsPublication . Barbosa, Pedro Maciel; Szrek, Helena; Ferreira, Lara; Cruz, Vitor Tedim; Firmino-Machado, JoãoBackground: Stroke burden challenges global health, and social and economic policies. Although stroke recovery encompasses a wide range of care, including in-hospital, outpatient, and community-based rehabilitation, there are no published cost-effectiveness studies of integrated post-stroke pathways. Objective: To determine the most cost-effective rehabilitation pathway during the first 12 months after a first-ever stroke. Methods: A cohort of people in the acute phase of a first stroke was followed after hospital discharge; 51 % women, mean (SD) age 74.4 (12.9) years, mean National Institute of Health Stroke Scale score 11.7 (8.5) points, and mode modified Rankin Scale score 3 points. We developed a decision tree model of 9 sequences of rehabilitation care organised in 3 stages (3, 6 and 12 months) through a combination of public, semi-public and private entities, considering both the individual and healthcare service perspectives. Health outcomes were expressed as quality-adjusted life years (QALY) over a 1-year time horizon. Costs included healthcare, social care, and productivity losses. Sensitivity analyses were con ducted on model input values. Results: From the individual perspective, pathway 3 (Short-term Inpatient Unit » Community Clinic) was the most cost-effective, followed by pathway 1 (Rehabilitation Centre » Community Clinic). From the healthcare service perspective, pathway 3 was the most cost-effective followed by pathway 7 (Outpatient Hospital » Private Clinic). All other pathways were considered strongly dominated and excluded from the analysis. The total 1-year mean cost ranged between €12104 and €23024 from the individual’s perspective and between €10992 and €31319 from the healthcare service perspective. Conclusion: Assuming a willingness-to-pay threshold of one times the national gross domestic product (€20633/QALY), pathway 3 (Short-term Inpatient Unit » Community Clinic) was the most cost-effective strategy from both the individual and healthcare service perspectives. Rehabilitation pathway data contribute to the development of a future integrated care system adapted to different stroke profiles.
- Reshaping the future of tourism & hospitality industry through blockchain technology: a systematic literature reviewPublication . Mountije, Yassine; Agapito, Dora Lúcia Miguel; Ramos, CeliaBlockchain is an emerging technology, and despite the growing literature on the topic, research on the use of blockchain in the tourism and hospitality industry is still fragmented. Therefore, further research is needed to explore blockchain’s applications, benefits, and obstacles from the perspective of businesses and consumers. This article aims to systematically review the extant blockchain-related literature and understand how this technology can be applied to optimise tourism and hospitality products and enhance tourist experiences. Following PRISMA guidelines, 98 peer-reviewed articles were deemed relevant to this study through a search in Scopus and Web of Science platforms. As a result of mapping research on blockchain in tourism and hospitality industry using Bibliometrix, a framework focused on applications, benefits and obstacles was developed. Findings can be used as a guide by researchers to advance the topic, as well as by stakeholders and policymakers in the field. Managers in tourism and hospitality should understand how to incorporate blockchain in businesses better, and policymakers should endeavour to develop clear regulations, especially for cryptocurrency use, which can lead to an increase in the adoption of blockchain in tourism and hospitality companies.
- Sport tourism spectators’ environmental sustainability intentions in an international surfing eventPublication . Martins, Rute; Pereira, Elsa; Rosado, António; Marôco, João; Mccullough, Brian; Mascarenhas, MargaridaThe assessment of environmental strategies and practices is an essential factor in sport tourism events environmental sustainability. Thus, this investigation aimed to study spectators' environmental intentions in an international surng event using the sport sustainability campaign evaluation model (SSCEM). A questionnaire was applied to 343 spectators of the World Championship Tour at Peniche, Portugal. The data were analysed with the Structural Equation Modelling Analysis. The results conrmed the inuence of points of attachment and internal constraints on spectators' attitudes towards environmental campaign. However, attitudes towards environmental campaign did not inuence spectators' sustainability intentions. Only, external constraints and past behaviours were associated to spectators' sustainable intentions. This research added valuable knowledge on the factors inuencing the sport consumers' environmental intentions providing knowledge to sport managers to better plan future campaigns regarding the target audience. Furthermore, this investigation conrmed the SSCEM's ability to analyse the consequences of the environmental campaigns developed by the sport tourism events.
- Value reciprocity mechanism in hotels: testing customer participation behaviour and value co-creation as mediators and previous experience as a moderatorPublication . Sadighha, Jinous; Pinto, Patrícia; Martins Guerreiro, Maria Manuela; Campos, Ana CláudiaPurpose – This study investigates the reciprocity mechanism in value co-creation and clarifies how service providers may effectively trigger customer participation behaviour and boost value co-creation to enhance customer citizenship behaviour, which brings extra benefits for service providers. Design/methodology/approach – By combining equity theory, social exchange theory and co-creation theory, this research proposes a model for the reciprocity mechanism in value co-creation incorporating customer co-creation perception (CCCP) conducting hotel dialogue, access, risk assessment and transparency (DART) activities; customer participation behaviour (CPB – information seeking, information sharing, responsible behaviour and personal interaction); customer citizenship behaviour (CCB – feedback, advocacy, helping and tolerance) and value co-creation in hotels. It also applies script theory to explore how customers’ previous experiences with the hotel may impact the value reciprocity mechanism. The collected data from tourists are analysed using partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM). Findings – The results confirm that CCCP drives CPB, value co-creation and CCB. CPB also enhances value co-creation, consequently boosting CCB. Moreover, CPB and value co-creation are the reciprocity mechanisms that mediate CCCP to CCB. Findings also reveal that CPB has a greater impact on value co-creation for firsttime customers. In contrast, CCCP has a higher effect on value co-creation for repeat customers. Practical implications – The proposed model is a managerial tool that assists practitionersin effectively driving customer participation behaviour and improving value co-creation for first-time customers and repeat customers. Originality/value – This study uncovers the significance of the hospitality service provider’s DARTactions in forming customer perceptions and leading customer behaviour towards value co-creation.
- An overview of mindfulness theories applied to tourism: systematic review update and bibliometric analysisPublication . Iacob, Vivien; Neves de Jesus, Saúl; Carmo, CláudiaThis paper presents a systematic review update regarding mindfulness theories applied to tourism, complemented with a bibliometric analysis. Scientific studies listed in the WOS, SCOPUS, PubMed and PsycInfo databases were analysed using PRISMA guidelines. Twenty-five studies were selected for review from 670 records identified. In recent years, mindfulness has proved to be a promising area of research in tourism, and the number of published studies is increasing. The findings reveal a positive association between mindfulness and tourism experiences, suggesting that tourists who adopt states of mindfulness during their travels benefit from increased pro-environmental behaviours, satisfaction levels, and memorable experiences, leading to destination loyalty. This study provides an in-depth overview of the literature, and helps redress the lack of bibliometric studies in this field. It also identifies common areas of current research interest, offers insights into commonly studied themes, and seeks to raise awareness about the relevance of the concept of mindfulness in tourist experiences and well-being by suggesting implications for research and tourism management.
- Creating new opportunities for tourism development through cross-border collaboration: shedding light on overlooked destinationsPublication . Pardo, Maria Carmen; Almeida, Sofia; Campos, Ana CláudiaPurpose – The aim of this investigation is to explore opportunities for advancing cross-border tourism in the Iberian Peninsula. Methodology/Design/Approach – In this study, focus groups and in-depth interviews were conducted to both public and private stakeholders in the cross-border regions. Findings – Findings indicate that the cross-border areas in Portugal and Spain are perceived by stakeholders from both countries as familiar territories and also that there are signs of transnational cooperation. This indicates there is significant potential for the advancement of cross-border tourism in the Iberian Peninsula. Nonetheless, the study concludes that more initiatives are required, beginning with the creation of an adequate organization to build the cross-border destination. Originality of the research – The research delivers managerial insights to assist public and private actors in developing this cross-border destination, such as the need to curtail contextual expenses or accentuate the public sector’s role in stimulating private sector’s involvement in the process.
- 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 shaping spectators’ consumption patterns: controversial arisings from an international sport tourism eventPublication . Mascarenhas, Margarida; Vieira, Henrique; Martins, RutePurpose – Sport events’ contribution to the destinations’ local economy implies in-depth knowledge of the economic benefits generated by non-resident spectators (NRS). Thus, this study aims to answer: What is the profile and shaping factors of the consumption patterns of the several types of NRS in international surf tourism events? Design/methodology/approach – A total of 263 questionnaires applied to the NRS of an international surf event were collected and analysed. The identification of the NRS profile and the predictive factors of their total expenditure were performed through the correlation of factors and multiple linear regression, respectively. Findings – Mostly, the event attracted generation Y NRS, with a high level of education and regular sport practice. The results showed differences among the NRS: the ‘‘casuals’’ included more women than men; the ‘‘extensioners’’ integrated the NRS whose surfing practice is higher; the ‘‘event visitors’’/’’time switchers’’ mostly integrated the domestic tourism flows; the ‘‘casuals’’ and ‘‘extensioners’’ spent the most at the destination, and those whose intention to recommend/revisit the destination, respectively, was higher; and the shaping factor that most influenced the increase in NRS expenditure was the overnight stay, added by older age, higher education level and foreign origin. Originality/value – Regardless of the initial motivation that led to the trip to the destination, the results verified that the event’s attributes are capable of contributing to the recommendation/visitation of the destination. Consequently, the study of economic benefits (tangible and intangible) provided by sport events in destinations should be guided by an integrative analysis of NRS.
