However, research on the experiential and physical aspects of templestays and their effects remains limited. Drawing on the evolution of religious tourism, which appeals to individuals regardless of their religious backgrounds, this study seeks to address this gap by exploring the effects of mindfulness during templestays on attention restoration, well-being, and environmentally responsible behavior. A total of 539 responses were collected from recent templestays participants. The results indicate that mindfulness during templestays positively impacts restorativeness, which in turn enhances both hedonic and eudaimonic well-being among participants. Furthermore, well-being was found to positively influence ethical and philanthropic environmentally responsible behaviors. Moreover, connectedness to nature moderates the relationship between eudaimonic well-being and philanthropic environmentally responsible behavior. This study expands the experiential value of templestays to include environmental aspects.

Although GAI enhances service efficiency, personalization, and decision-making, it also raises concerns regarding trust, bias, ethical use, and uneven adoption across tourism enterprises. This study uses the Service Innovation Archetype framework to examine how GAI reshapes supply–demand interactions and service ecosystems. Adopting a phenomenological approach, this study explores the lived experiences of tourists and tourism technology entrepreneurs to uncover how GAI impacts value co-creation, managerial decision-making, and structural innovation. Findings reveal that current research often lacks theoretical integration and overlooks the complex feedback loops between tourists' perceptions and providers' strategies. Thus, this study contributes to a deeper conceptual understanding of GAI's role in tourism innovation and provides a critical insight into guiding the responsible, inclusive, and sustainable adoption of GAI technologies in tourism.

This study investigated carbon-based dynamic pricing as an example of green capitalism, evaluating its ability to encourage pro-environmental behavioral intentions. Across three experiments, carbon-based dynamic pricing increased pro-environmental behavioral intentions by making guests more sensitive to costs. The results also show that how prices are presented matters. Adding extra charges for higher emissions is more effective than offering discounts, and clearly separating environmental charges on the bill strengthens this effect. These findings offer initial empirical evidence supporting the behavioral validity of green capitalism in tourism, advancing prospect theory by demonstrating how financial mechanisms can align profit motives with ecological outcomes.

This interdisciplinary study adopts a geo-psychological perspective to examine how internal defenses (self-esteem and cultural worldview) and external conditions (disease severity and tourism clustering) jointly influence spatially heterogeneous travel intentions during the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. Integrating primary survey data with secondary spatial indicators and employing both aspatial and spatial regression analyses, the findings reveal that psychological and environmental factors exert distinct yet interdependent effects on mortality salience-based travel intentions. These relationships vary systematically across space, demonstrating that existential coping responses are not uniformly expressed but conditioned by local contexts. By reconceptualizing travel intention as a spatially embedded coping mechanism, this study extends Terror Management Theory and advances a more context-sensitive understanding of tourism behavior under conditions of existential threat.
