    Would You Like To Travel After the Covid-19 Pandemic? a Novel Examination of the Causal Correlations Within the Attitudinal Theory of Planned Behaviour
    (International Hellenic University, 2024) Lam, J.M.S.; Kozak, M.; Ariffin, A.A.
    Purpose: This present study examines the correlation between tourist attitudes toward international travel post-Covid-19 pandemic as well as the image of the travel destination and the perceived risk. Methods: A cross-sectional method was used to collect data via self-administered questionnaires from 432 international respondents visiting Malaysia in 2023. The causal correlations were then examined using partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM). Results: Both the subjective norms and perceived behavioural control of TPB, and destination image significantly influence tourist attitudes, and, subsequently tourist satisfaction. This present study also lists its managerial and theoretical implications as well as its limitations and suggestions for imminent studies. Implications: This study contributes to the limited empirical research on travel post-pandemic by applying the established theory of planned behaviour (TPB). Most of the variables of the theory of planned behaviour, an attitudinal theory, correlate with travel intentions but this study takes another perspective. This study also bridges the gap by correlating the TPB to on-travel experiences by measuring tourist satisfaction. © 2024 Authors.

    Customer Experience in Five-Star Hotel Businesses: Is It an “experience” for Customers?
    (Emerald Publishing, 2023) Şanlıöz-Özgen, H.K.; Kozak, Metin
    Purpose: Concerning the development of “experience” as an economic phenomenon, this study aims to analyse customers' evaluations of their experiences in five-star hotel businesses and to identify if the hospitality experience is evaluated as an “experience” by its specific aspects. Design/methodology/approach: Structural and thematic narrative analyses in a multi-dimensional setting were applied to stories from 107 participants who stayed in five-star hotel businesses. Findings: Customers evaluate their overall experience as an “experience” reflected by experiential statements. However, they demonstrate higher cognitive orientation at the sub-experience levels (food and beverage, rooms, etc.). Research limitations/implications: The paper sheds light on the fact that customers may evaluate their experiences with cognitive and experiential aspects. The study focuses on participants' lived experiences to understand the customer perspective with the “experience” concept leading to the memorability of customer experiences in hotel businesses. Further research is required with a larger sample group, mixed-methods implementation and longitudinal and comparable examination to understand seasonal, motivational and cultural differences. Practical implications: The paper reveals various aspects of customer experiences in five-star hotel businesses around the variety of their offerings evaluated by cognitive and experiential perceptions so that dedicated efforts of the managers will be enhanced with a better and strategic understanding of the “experience” concept to achieve business goals. Originality/value: The study offers insightful findings relating to customers’ service- and experience-based experiences and how “experience” is perceived by customers from various angles in the five-star hotel businesses. © 2023, Emerald Publishing Limited.

    Academic Freedom in the Tourism and Hospitality Literature: A Review and Call for Action
    (Taylor and Francis, 2026) Wen, J.; Kozak, M.; Hu, F.
    Academic freedom, the cornerstone of intellectual inquiry, has been a subject of reflection and debate. Whereas it is a fairly common topic in disciplines such as higher education, relevant discussion in tourism and hospitality is limited: a systematic review, described in this chapter, revealed a mere five articles within the literature in this field. The chapter highlights the need to focus on academic freedom from an interdisciplinary perspective in order to further develop tourism and hospitality's reputation. A call for action is made by underlining potential constraints to academic freedom in this context and how removing these barriers can promote innovation and nurture a new generation of professionals. Overall, more voices and joint efforts are needed to foster academic freedom. © 2026 selection and editorial matter, Jun Wen, Metin Kozak, Joshua Aston and Wei Wang; individual chapters, the contributors.

    Barriers To Gender-Based Pro-Environmental Travel Behavior
    (Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd., 2024) Chalermchaikit, V.; Kozak, M.
    This chapter aims to rationally analyze responsible travel behavior from the sustainability and development perspective, indicating barriers and implications toward tourists’ pro-environmental behavior. Based on sustainability, the triple bottom line shows possible ways to move from the previous travel behavior via sustainable behavior, highlighting the ‘Go Green’ concept influencing marketing, communication, and policies. Gender implications become important keys to sustainable behavior patterns via marketing, communication, and policies. Also, the chapter integrates the current practice of the United Nations via sustainable development goals with implementation as a part of travel behavior. Thus, the viewpoints analyze the different marketing, communication, and policy approaches via different dimensions; values, social norms, and travel constraints through sustainable travel behavior. Furthermore, the scope of different gender perceptions is from the lens of tourists via attitudes, behavior, and characteristics. Hence, the chapter conceptualizes gender-based pro-environment and concludes with coherent predictions of pro-environment behavior. © The Editors and Contributors Severally 2024.

    Impacts of Covid-19 on Changing Patterns of Household Food Consumption: an Intercultural Study of Three Countries
    (Elsevier, 2021) Kartari, Asker; Ozen, Asli Emine; Correia, Antonia; Wen, Jun; Kozak, Metin
    In light of COVID-19's effects on individuals' social, economic, political, and psychological values, this paper aims to investigate the pandemic's role in possible changes to people's food consumption and meal habits in three countries, namely China, Portugal, and Turkey. The sample includes individuals from the three countries, exploratory factor analysis and non-parametric tests were used to test the differences. Results suggest that coronavirus has played a strong part in altering households' food consumption and meal habits within these countries. The pandemic has particularly led to greater consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables and spending more time eating meals at home. Portugal appears to be consuming more seafood, bread, and butter whereas China features higher consumption of rice and meat products; Turkey is consuming more meat and eggs. The study closes with a set of recommendations for the society and future research.

    Gender Inclusion: the Practices of Organizational Development and Human Resource Management
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Chalermchaikit, Vorakarn; Kozak, Metin; Preudhikulpradab, Sirichai
    This study explores gender inclusion via practices of organizational development and human resource management from general managers in five-star hotels based on the gap between current practices, expectations, and typical general managers' characteristics. The study states the related theories of organizational culture, corporate policies, perceived organizational support, core competencies, and gender perceptions. A mixed method was applied in three stages. Quantitative research was conducted with 400 executive staff using 25 structured questionnaires via a Likert scale: Needs Assessment. The second stage is qualitative research conducted using five in-depth interview questions with 22 interviews conducted by the general manager. Interview transcripts collected the data, contents analysis inter-coding and triangulation of themes development. The last stage is the development of a model and guidelines, which are conducted by juxtaposing quantitative and qualitative data and expert reviews. The study discusses the implications for the literature and practice.
