Abstract

This study examines the influence of food consumption emotions on tourist’s memories of a trip, place attachment, and behavioural intentions. A web-based post-holiday survey was conducted among tourists to Rovaniemi, Finland, and a valid sample of 241 tourists was used for data analysis. Structural equation modelling was applied and all the proposed hypotheses were supported. The findings demonstrate the role of food consumption emotions on the formation of memories that further influence behavioural intentions and place attachment. Memories also mediate in both of the relationships (i.e. between “food consumption emotions” and “place attachment” and between “food consumption emotions” and “behavioural intentions”. The managerial implications include that restaurant managers should formulate a local food quality evaluation system and programme to enable tourists to gain sensual enjoyment. They should also ensure food safety to avoid negative feelings among tourists. Finally, they should focus on the servicescape and storytelling, as well as offer food souvenirs that appeal to tourists’ emotions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
