The influence of virtual reality in e-commerce
2019
[EN] The development of virtual reality (VR), together with other technological innovations will shape the future of e-retailing. This research studies the effectiveness of different VR formats and devices in a virtual store environment, namely V-commerce. This study proposes and test a conceptual model that analyses the relations between sense of presence, brand recall and purchase intention, while also going deeper into their antecedents. Our findings suggest differences in purchase intention depending on VR format and device used. No differences are shown in sense of presence and affect by VR format and device. Our tested model suggests a dual route of influence of VR on consumers' purch…
Local culture in the context of international tourism : Japanese tourists' perceptions of the culture of Saariselkä and the views of Japanese travel …
2012
In tourism, cultures are often used as resources to attract tourists. This is because tourism is generated by difference. So that the culture of a tourist destination can be consumed by tourists the culture needs to go through commodification, a process through which part of the culture turns into a product or a service. Knowing how a culture is used for tourism practice is important from the viewpoint of the cultural sustainability of tourism. The present study primarily aims at examining how the local culture is dealt with by the Japanese in Saariselkä through tourism. The study concentrates on how Japanese tourists perceive the local culture during their stay and how the Japanese travel …
"Boire un verre dans un bar...!" - Modulation de l'expérience d'un produit par le contexte. Apport de l'immersion à l'étude des influences contextuel…
2013
The overall aim of the present thesis is to study contextual influences on food behaviour (including variables coming from the environment and from the consumer). To this purpose, an immersive method using a space with physical elements was used, in order to evoke a realistic situation within a laboratory setting. Here, the method consisted in designing an immersive bar evoking the situation of “having a drink in a bar”. Two variants of the bar were created and five studies were implemented in these spaces to study how context influences food choices and evaluation. Our approach consisted in taking the product as central in the link between the consumer and the environment and not as a cont…

Al mismo tiempo se analiza críticamente los errores y concepciones que se promueven hacia la comunidad. Posteriormente se destaca la importancia de la comunidad como alternativa a la crisis que se produce en el contexto cubano de los noventa, a partir de la conjugación de tres factores: Caída de campo socialista, recrudecimiento del bloque de EEUU y la emergencia una crisis estructural. Se ejemplifican las experiencias en Trabajo Comunitario, como alternativas a la crisis en general en el medio urbano. Finalmente se exponen las limitaciones institucionales y que el propio sistema favorece a estas novedosas experiencias participativas. The mistakes and concepts promoted among the community a…
Normality
2018
The chapter explicates the central resources that classical Husserlian phenomenology and its contemporary elaborations offer for the study of psychic disorders. We shall first discuss the phenomenological principles that enable analysis of the conditions and limits of experiencing and sense-constitution. We shall then clarify the concepts that phenomenologists have developed for the discussion of the normality and abnormality of experiencing—optimality and concordance—while also paying heed to the types of phenomena that classical and contemporary phenomenologists have tackled while developing their methods. In this vein, we will emphasize methodological factors that separate phenomenologic…

La realidad virtual en la fase precompra del turismo de cruceros: un estudio experimental basado en la variable presencia
2023
En el ámbito del turismo, nuevas tecnologías disruptivas como la Realidad Virtual (RV) están remodelando la experiencia del consumidor (Beck et al., 2019; Flavián et al., 2019). En la fase precompra, la RV se posiciona como una herramienta especialmente útil al proveer al consumidor de una simulación sensorial de la experiencia turística de manera previa al viaje (Tussyadiah et al., 2018). Entre las cualidades distintivas de la RV destaca la alta capacidad para generar la sensación de presencia (Biocca, 1997), definida como un estado psicológico en el que el usuario se siente en el entorno virtual representado (Steuer, 1992). No obstante, la exploración y adaptación de la RV en turismo toda…
Expertise and becoming conscious of something
2022
Becoming conscious refers to how new mental content emerges in the mind. To understand this phenomenon, we studied how people experience graffiti by thinking aloud. In protocols, we found three types of becoming conscious: experiencing emotional and perceptual content directly linked to a perceivable object, non-perceivable or apperceived information content, and transformation and restructuring processes. On the grounds of the content-based study of protocols, we suggest that people can become conscious of either direct perception, apperception, or restructuring thinking. Research of the mind, which is grounded in analysis and explained by properties of mental content, can be called conten…

Gestión del cuerpo y planificación urbana: Desplazamiento de significado en la reivención de cuepos y ciudades
2020
Contemporary cities have administrations increasingly marked by urban planning guidelines that are guided by business and marketing and, to attract investments and tourists, implement strategies that aim to homogenize, spectacularize and control urban space. However, other experiences in the city potentially build new meaning to it, which would escape those strategically planned, creating alternative possibilities of uses, diverging from the way thar are predicted and proposed by the governmental power in their urban marketing strategies. The article discusses how the occupation of urban spaces by transvestites for prostitution may imply reflections on the role of norms of gender in the (re…
