Indonesian Muslim tourists represent a large and potentially very significant segment of the Asian travel market. Perhaps surprisingly, their motives for taking leisure holidays have not been systematically addressed in the academic literature. Building on conceptual work in tourist motivation, and specifically the travel career pattern approach, the first aim of the study was to identify the motives and review the motive patterns of Muslim tourists from Indonesia. The study also addressed the differences between less experienced and more experienced Indonesian Muslim tourists with a view to understanding potential travel careers and future market directions. One hundred and ninety six respondents, principally from Jakarta and Bandung, were surveyed with a 26-item questionnaire. The findings suggested that Muslim tourists undertaking leisure-based holidays placed special attention on relationships, safety, and nature, all concerns consistent with the teaching of Islam and a collecti...

To the Reader It is my great pleasure to hand over another, decidedly different, special issue of “Folia Turistica.” This two-volume issue (published separately in Polish and in English) has been prepared for the 35th anniversary of the Tourism and Recreation Faculty at the learning institution which has published our journal since its inception – The University School of Physical Education in Krakow. The creation of this faculty also began our university’s process of educating students with majors in Tourism and Recreation, which, we should stress, mobilized Poland’s second MA degree program in this field, an endeavor which has successfully continued to this day. We have decided to ring in this anniversary with a publishing project that is unique even by international standards – the preparation of a special edition of our basic journal. To this end, we invited eight outstanding foreign tourism researchers to take part, all of whom decided to publish some of their most recent research herein. Apart from these undisputed academic authorities, who enjoy the recognition of tourism scholars around the world, we have also invited (through the normal article reviewing procedure) eight top Polish researchers to contribute to our project, those who are taking up issues in line with our foreign guests’, or who have a particularly extensive scholarly output in a given field. Thus came about this special issue of “Folia Turistica,” which will carry the subtitle “The Master Classes.” I am utterly convinced that each of the authors of the works found in the first section of this issue fully deserves to be called a “master” in world tourism research. I also hope that soon we shall be able to say the same for all the Polish authors published herein (to my mind some of them already deserve this name). Apart from the translations of the masters’ articles, they have also provided presentations of their work (found in the second part of the volume), which, to my mind, only go to confirm their brilliant technique and their scholarly maturity. As the editor and initiator of the notion of publishing this anniversary issue of “Folia Turistica” (we should add that, apart from the above-mentioned anniversary, it is also the jubilee 25th issue of our journal), I would like to stress that this idea sprang from a few different aims. Apart from celebrating the anniversary itself, one of the main aims was to familiarize Polish readers and researchers with the most recent work by the world’s finest tourism scholars. The majority (five) of the eight works written by the invited authors were specially prepared for our journal. Three articles are reprints (in the English version of the volume) and translations (in the Polish version) of works previously published in renowned journals. The first of these is the opening chapter in the recent two-volume book devoted in its entirety to a certain theory familiar to all tourism researchers, developed by one of our masters (who himself edited both volumes of this book), while the other two articles earlier appeared in top-rated academic periodicals (“Society” and “Annals of Tourism Research”). In sum, the volume contains nineteen articles, grouped in three separate parts. The first contains the articles prepared by the masters, their brief academic biograms, and an outline of their contribution to the development of tourism research. The translation of the masters’ articles and biograms have been rendered by Polish academics, who have also written their own separate articles, thematically corresponding with the works of “their” masters. These make up the second part of the volume. In the final part, which is linked to the central idea of this exceptional issue of “Folia Turistica” in a special way, there is a text dealing with the roles and undertakings of the titular “masters” in modern science, using the example of tourism research. The inspiration to write this text came from the remarkable achievements and careers of all the authors invited to participate in this publishing project. It would seem that this work could serve as a springboard for an interesting discussion on the subject, which should – to my mind – take place among people engaged in the study. There is also a special attachment to the article, containing statements by forefront Polish and foreign tourism researchers, who have been invited by the authors of article to give their opinion on a few key issues, such as: changes taking place in contemporary scholarship, and the shifts these cause in the perception of the roles and undertakings of the “masters,” their efforts to improve the quality of tourism research and publications, improvement of methodology, exploring new directions in research, progress in academic personnel (especially young tourism researchers), integration (international inclusive) of the whole community of tourism scholars, academic ethics, and so forth. I hope that the reader will enjoy this somewhat unconventional undertaking. We ought to add that it is the first issue of our journal to appear in English as well. Two factors led us to take such a step. The first is the fact that an English-language publication of “Folia Turistica,” combined with the publication of so many outstanding foreign names, should mark out a “Polish presence” in the international arena of tourism research (something which Polish researchers seldom manage to achieve, regrettably), and promote our journal abroad. The second factor concerns the further development of “Folia Turistica.” This issue may indeed be the first step toward turning it into an English-language or bilingual publication. We are very interested to hear what readers think of the idea, and in particular, potential authors of future academic works to be published in forthcoming issues of “Folia Turistica.” There is one more aspect and important aim of this project I would like to underline: it gave a large group of (mostly younger) Polish researchers direct contact with real masters of world research on tourism, with figures they had heretofore known only through the literature. For all of us (writing on behalf of the Polish project participants) this was surely a very valuable experience, which will undoubtedly “pay off” in the future in an even more improved quality of our research and publications. It remains to wish you a pleasant read and a great deal of academic inspiration, which is surely provided by this special anniversary of our journal. I invite one and all to participate and to publish in the pages of our journal. Wieslaw Alejziak CONTENTS To the Reader PART I - From the work of Eminent International Scholars in Tourism Studies 1.

Emotional Intelligence in Tourism and Hospitality

ERDOGAN KOC

Main Description Emotional intelligence is the capability to recognize, use and manage one's own emotions and those of others. The use of emotional information guides thinking and behaviour, allowing adjustment of emotions to adapt to environments. As tourism and hospitality services are produced and consumed simultaneously, with a high level of contact between employees and customers, the development of emotional intelligence of employees in tourism and hospitality establishments is vital. This book has a skills-based approach and explains how emotional intelligence can be developed in tourism and hospitality students and employees. Key features: A foreword by Gill Hasson The first tourism and hospitality book to describe emotional intelligence Covers all major literature, concepts, theories and research findings from the perspective of emotional intelligence. Includes exercises, end of chapter questions, practical examples, student aids and Powerpoint slides for each chapter that can be used in class by academicians and practitioners in their training sessions. The book is intended for use by tourism and hospitality students, researchers and practitioners.

This study explains the current interest of travellers and business of tourism in Artificial Intelligence. It takes into account how Artificial intelligence disrupts the travel distribution. And, how it impacts on tourist behaviour. The methodology approach in this study employs a descriptive data analysis. It describes the data of UK traveller outbound behaviour and the economic performance of TUI Plc. Thomas Cook Plc. and Booking.com. Besides, the methodology approach includes Critical Realism. It provides a philosophical explanatory of the impact. This study, concludes that the application of Artificial Intelligence in the business of tourism disrupt the travel distribution. It is in the form of the new Intelligent Travel Agents (ITA). But their services affect travellers heuristics and intuition negatively. It displaces travellers learning to discover new products and services. Finally, this study makes recommendations. First, it all proposes recommendations to the management of Intelligent Travel Agents. It suggests to match its products and services through Market-bound Self-reinforcing Mechanism. It would create a strategy for developing new traveller segments. It also recommends that Corporate Social Responsibility (CRS) should be at the heart of the Intelligent Travel Agents.

Information

The set of journals have been ranked according to their SJR and divided into four equal groups, four quartiles. Q1 (green) comprises the quarter of the journals with the highest values, Q2 (yellow) the second highest values, Q3 (orange) the third highest values and Q4 (red) the lowest values.

The SJR is a size-independent prestige indicator that ranks journals by their 'average prestige per article'. It is based on the idea that 'all citations are not created equal'. SJR is a measure of scientific influence of journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from It measures the scientific influence of the average article in a journal, it expresses how central to the global scientific discussion an average article of the journal is.

Evolution of the number of published documents. All types of documents are considered, including citable and non citable documents.

This indicator counts the number of citations received by documents from a journal and divides them by the total number of documents published in that journal. The chart shows the evolution of the average number of times documents published in a journal in the past two, three and four years have been cited in the current year. The two years line is equivalent to journal impact factor ™ (Thomson Reuters) metric.

Evolution of the total number of citations and journal's self-citations received by a journal's published documents during the three previous years. Journal Self-citation is defined as the number of citation from a journal citing article to articles published by the same journal.

Evolution of the number of total citation per document and external citation per document (i.e. journal self-citations removed) received by a journal's published documents during the three previous years. External citations are calculated by subtracting the number of self-citations from the total number of citations received by the journal’s documents.

International Collaboration accounts for the articles that have been produced by researchers from several countries. The chart shows the ratio of a journal's documents signed by researchers from more than one country; that is including more than one country address.

Not every article in a journal is considered primary research and therefore "citable", this chart shows the ratio of a journal's articles including substantial research (research articles, conference papers and reviews) in three year windows vs. those documents other than research articles, reviews and conference papers.

Ratio of a journal's items, grouped in three years windows, that have been cited at least once vs. those not cited during the following year.

Bridging Theory and Practice for our students – Collaboration of Department of Food Sciences and Nutrition with local food industries

• In Students
• 15:48, 12 Apr 2024

Students of the Department of Food Sciences and Nutrition have just completed their placements in local food industries or relevant entities as part of their course, providing them with invaluable exposure and learning opportunities.

For this past year, final year students of the Bachelor of Science (Hons) in the Applied Food and Nutritional Sciences had secured their placement across a variety of industries such as Foster Clark Products Ltd., The Food Factory, Malta Dairy Products, Federated Mills and Water Services Corporation. The placement included spending a full working day at the respective industry, once weekly during both semesters.

Placements are a vital component in the educational journey of the undergraduate students, bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical experience. They enable students to explore different roles within their fields, in an attempt to refine their career goals and preferences.

Furthermore, placements offer students the chance of building their own professional networks, connecting with experts in the field and ultimately, give students a competitive edge.

The Department of Food Sciences and Nutrition, welcomes such student-centered opportunities, which can enrich students’ academic experiences and aid the preparation of successful professionals in the fields of Food Science, Nutrition and Dietetics.

The Department cordially thanks all the food industries and entities offering a placement to the undergraduate students and commits itself to further collaborations in the future.

Series description

The aim of this Bridging series is to have academic and industry leaders join forces in their respective fields to discuss, exchange, and debate issues critical to the advancement of tourism; and to inspire a new generation of researchers who can translate scholarly discoveries to deliverable results valuable to practitioners, and who can inform the academics of industry best practices.

The series creates a platform for academics and practitioners to share theories and practices with each other, and serves as a collaborative venue for meaningful exchange and syntheses. It illustrates how theories and practices inform each other; how both have evolved, advanced, and been applied; and how industry best practices have benefited from, and contributed to, theoretical developments.

Aim and scope

Coverage includes, but is not restricted to:

• Theoretical development in this field
• Best practices in the fields of application
• Policy, planning, and development
• Strategies, globalization, and sustainability
• Emerging markets and consumers
