Abstract: | Over the last decade, many studies have started to focus on understanding customer’s
green purchase intentions or revisit intentions since the increasing importance of
environmental issues in the hotel industry.
The main aim of the study is to suggest and test the intention-loyalty chain (ILC) which
suggests that a hospitality organization's green sustainability may be enhanced by
connecting re-visit intention willingness to pay more, green customer satisfaction, and
loyalty.
In other words, the research model was formed to suggest and test (revisit) intention loyalty decision making model based on an extended TPB theory. Data were collected
by face-to-face survey technique, and 400 usable questionnaires were held from the
customers in Izmir City, Turkey.
In the findings, four of five constructs in the antecedents of intentions, except
perceived control, were found as significant, and all three consequences of revisit
intentions were found as significant. The results of the study supported the usage of
the extended theory of planned behavior in the context of green hotels. Theoretical
contributions and discussions were explained lastly.
Keywords: environmentally friendly activities, loyalty, overall image, satisfaction,
revisit intention, willingness to pay more. ÖZ:
Son on yıl içerisinde, birçok çalışma hotel endüstrisin de artan çevresel konuların
öneminden dolayı müşterilerin yeşil alan satın alma niyetlerini anlamaya
odaklanmıştır.
Çalışmanın temel amacı, bir konaklama organizasyonunun yeşil sürdürülebilirliğinin,
daha fazla ödeme için tekrar ziyaret niyeti, yeşil müşteri memnuniyeti ve sadakati ile
geliştirilebileceğini öne süren niyet-sadakat zincirini önermek ve test etmektir. Bir
diğer ifade ile, araştırma modeli, genişletilmiş bir Planlı davranış teorisine dayalı
niyet-bağlılık karar verme modelini önermek ve test etmek için oluşturulmuştur.
Çalışmada kullanılacak veriler 400 kişiden oluşturulan yüz yüze toplanan anketler
doğrultusunda İzmir’de gerçekleştirilmiştir.
Elde edilen bulgularda, algılanan kontrol dışındaki niyetlerin öncüllerindeki beş
yapıdan dördü anlamlı, niyetin üç sonucunun tümü de (daha fazla ödemeye isteklilik,
memnuniyet ve sadakat) anlamlı olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonuçları, planlı
davranış teorisinin yeşil oteller bağlamında kullanımını desteklemiştir. Son olarak ise
teorik katkılar ve tartışmalar açıklanmıştır.
Anahtar Kelimeler: çevre dostu faaliyetler, sadakat, genel imaj, memnuniyet, tekrar
ziyaret niyeti, daha fazla ödemeye isteklilik. |
