Age and gender differences in online travel reviews and user-generated-content (UGC) adoption: extending the technology acceptance model (TAM) with credibility theory
Abstract
This study examines the effects of trustworthiness, expertize, perceived usefulness (PU), and perceived ease of use (PEOU) on usage intention toward user-generated content (UGC) and online reviews among female and male younger and older travelers using SEM. The study tested the model with a sample of 200 UK residents who had taken at least one leisure trip in the preceding 12 months and searched for travel information in advance on travel-review websites. PU was the strongest determinant of UGC usage for males, but it failed to be significant among females. PEOU was the strongest determinant of females’ and older travelers’ usage, but it was non-significant for males and younger travelers. expertize had a significant influence on younger travelers, but not older ones. The results provide additional contributions on the effects of gender and age in online travel reviews to help advance both theory and practice.

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.
