Abstract

Purpose

Combining technology acceptance model and the theory of planned behavior, this study aims to analyze influencing factors on intention of sharing heritage tourism experience in social media from technological, psychological and experience perspectives. The moderating effects of age and gender are also tested.

Design/methodology/approach

This study applies a quantitative method using online questionnaires. A total number of 323 questionnaires are collected. The data are analyzed using partial least squares-structural equation modeling to assess measurement and structural models and multi-group analysis to compare differences among age and gender groups.

Findings

The results of this study indicate that subjective norm, perceived behavioral control and tourism experience significantly and positively influence the intention of sharing heritage tourism experience in social media, while the effects of perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use and attitude are non-significant. Results reveal the differences in antecedents of sharing heritage tourism experience in social media between males and females and between younger and older tourists.

Originality/value

Developing a model integrating technology acceptance model and theory of planned behavior, this paper analyzes the intention of sharing heritage tourism experience in social media through technological, psychological and tourism experience perspectives. Besides, heterogeneous comparisons between younger and older tourists and between males and females offer significant academic and practical insights.

研究目的

本研究结合技术接受模型(TAM)和计划行为理论(TPB), 旨在从技术、心理和体验的角度分析在社交媒体上分享文化遗产旅游体验意愿的影响因素, 同时还测试了年龄和性别的调节效应。

研究方法

本研究采用定量方法, 使用在线问卷进行调查。共收集到323份问卷。使用PLS-SEM来评估测量和结构模型, 使用多组分析(MGA)来比较不同年龄和性别组之间的差异。

研究发现

结果表明, 主观规范、感知行为控制和旅游体验对在社交媒体上分享文化遗产旅游体验的意愿有显著的正向影响, 而感知有用性、感知易用性和态度的影响是不显著的。结果揭示了男性和女性以及年轻游客和老年游客之间在社交媒体上分享文化遗产旅游体验前因的差异。

研究创新/价值

本文开发了一个整合了TAM和TPB的模型, 通过技术、心理和旅游体验的视角分析了在社交媒体上分享文化遗产旅游体验的意愿。此外, 对年轻游客和老年游客以及男性和女性之间的异质比较提供了重要的学术和实践见解。
