Description
This volume presents twenty updated and new theories of
travelers' decisions and behaviors. It describes the advances in theory
construction and practical applications of theory in the disciplines of
tourism, hospitality, leisure, and entertainment (THLE) research. The chapters all
build on the grand models appearing in these four literature streams during
1965-2015.
This approach is comprehensive in both coverage and depth
with regard to constructing, testing, and applying theories of travelers'
decisions and behaviors, which includes original work in updating grand
theories and micro (algorithm-conscious and non-conscious based) theories of
travelers' decisions and behavior. This volume is the first to fully recognize
and construct theories across the THLE discipline.
This volume describes the synergies, symbioses, and
serendipity occurring in THLE behavior. It tears down researchers' parochial
fences of what is and is not tourism, hospitality, leisure, and entertainment.
The time has arrived tor tourism to embrace hospitality, hospitality to embrace
tourism, and all to embrace leisure and entertainment, and this volume serves
as a catalyst to accomplish this embrace.
