Resumo: Recent advances in Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) transformed the tourism industry in a key sector for e-commerce. In such a context, many companies have sought to understand the main reasons that lead consumers to participate in electronic tourism (e-tourism). Thus, we aim to analyze different factors that influence the participation of consumers in e-tourism, by choosing a website, recommending it, or buying tourism products. We surveyed 251 participants enrolled in tourism discussion groups on the web, analyzing data through Structural Equation Modeling – SEM. Our results pointed out satisfaction with previous experiences and the quality of tourism products as the main drivers of customers’ participation in e-tourism regarding the intention to buy and recommending the tourism website. Satisfaction with previous experiences stands out as the main predictor in both situations. We believe our findings will extend the understanding of consumer’s attitudes to online tourism services aiding managers and researchers interested in this topic.

Os recentes avanços nas Tecnologias da Informação e Comunicação (TIC) transformaram a indústria do turismo num setor essencial do comércio eletrônico. Nesse contexto, muitas empresas têm procurado entender os principais motivos que levam os consumidores a participar do turismo eletrônico (e-turismo). Assim, objetivou-se nesta pesquisa analisar diferentes fatores que influenciam a participação dos consumidores no e-turismo, seja escolhendo um site, recomendando-o ou comprando produtos turísticos. O estudo se caracteriza como uma pesquisa survey, aplicada a uma amostra de 251 membros de grupos de turismo da Internet, cujo modelo proposto foi testado através da técnica de modelagem de equações estruturais. Os resultados apontaram como preditores da participação dos usuários no e-turismo, a satisfação com experiências prévias e a qualidade dos produtos turísticos, sendo estes os aspectos que mais influenciam a intenção de comprar e recomendar o site. A satisfação com experiências prévias destaca-se como o principal preditor em ambas as situações. As descobertas aqui obtidas aprofundam a compreensão acerca das atitudes do consumidor de serviços de turismo online, servindo de referência para gestores e pesquisadores interessados nesta temáticaAnptur2020-04-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer reviewedEvaluado por paresAvaliado por paresapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://rbtur.org.br/rbtur/article/view/183110.7784/rbtur.v14i2.1831Revista Brasileira de Pesquisa em Turismo; Vol. 14 No. 2 (2020): maio/agosto; 139-155Revista Brasileira de Pesquisa em Turismo; Vol. 14 Núm. 2 (2020): maio/agosto; 139-155Revista Brasileira de Pesquisa em Turismo; v. 14 n. 2 (2020): maio/agosto; 139-1551982-6125reponame:Revista Brasileira de Pesquisa em Turismoinstname:Associação Nacional de Pesquisa e Pós-Graduação em Turismo (ANPTUR)instacron:ANPPGTporenghttps://rbtur.org.br/rbtur/article/view/1831/1369https://rbtur.org.br/rbtur/article/view/1831/1370https://rbtur.org.br/rbtur/article/view/1831/1371Copyright (c) 2020 Fernanda dos Santos, Guilherme Lerch Lunardi, Cláudia Rodrigues Maia, Edar da Silva Añañainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSantos, Fernanda dosLunardi, Guilherme LerchMaia, Cláudia RodriguesAñaña, Edar da Silva2020-06-25T13:58:49Zoai:ojs.emnuvens.com.br:article/1831Revistahttps://rbtur.org.br/rbturONGhttps://rbtur.org.br/rbtur/oai||edrbtur@gmail.com|| glauber.santos@usp.br1982-61251982-6125opendoar:2020-06-25T13:58:49Revista Brasileira de Pesquisa em Turismo - Associação Nacional de Pesquisa e Pós-Graduação em Turismo (ANPTUR)false
