Given that online travel media enable multilateral communication patterns in destination marketing, this study investigates technical attributes presenting the number and type of source-related visual cues. From a technological perspective, the sources of online travel information can be conceptualized in terms of specialization, endorsement, and other users’ star rating to reflect technological functions and psychological effects. An experiment with a 2 (specialization: a generalist website vs. a specialist website) × 2 (endorsement: absence vs. presence) × 3 (star rating: low vs. medium vs. high) factorial between-subjects design was conducted to test the relationships between source-related visual cues, cue-induced perceptions, information credibility, and destination images. This study found that each source-related visual cue produced distinctive psychological effects on a tourist’s perceptions. Furthermore, these cue-induced perceptions were influential to tourists’ judgment of information credibility, which was positively related to destination images and behavioral intention.

Penelitian ini mengumpulkan data dengan menyebarkan kuesioner elektronik (e-kuesioner). 200 responden memenuhi kriteria dalam penelitian ini. Untuk menganalisis data, Partial Least Square - Structural Equation Model (PLS-SEM) dianalisis menggunakan SmartPLS 3.2.8. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa Pengaruh Sosial, Motivasi Hedonik, dan Kebiasaan berpengaruh signifikan terhadap Behavioral Intention. Behavioral Intention juga memiliki pengaruh signifikan terhadap Use Behavior. Dalam efek moderasi, hanya Umur yang dapat memoderasi Pengaruh Sosial pada Niat Perilaku. Dengan demikian, direkomendasikan untuk penelitian selanjutnya untuk menggunakan model UTAUT2 yang lengkap dan menambahkan variabel Perceived Security. Di sisi lain, Pegipegi harus menambahkan lebih banyak layanan pada bisnis utama mereka. Tourism is one of the sectors that contribute the most to a country's economy.

Online travel reviews (OTRs) are used by travelers to plan and book their holiday particular by the free and easy traveler. Hence, it is essential for hoteliers to understand the factors that affect and empower travelers when using OTRs to plan their holidays. This study has adopted three theories: dual-process theory, psychological empowerment (PE) and TPB. These theories were used to test additional dimensions of the informational and normative social influence, its links with perceived empowerment, and their impact on the intention to use OTRs. Using SmartPLS to analyze the data collected from 392 Malaysian, the results show that PE is significantly affected by informational and normative social influence, from travelers’ perception of PE positively affects their attitude toward using OTRs, and attitude significantly influences intention to use OTRs when plans for travel. Furthermore, the research findings contribute to the literature on travelers’ behavioral intention; this study also has direct implications for online travel providers.
