Article The 'Original Face': Visitors Experience in Buddhist Pilgrimage Tourism through the Lens of Zen Thought(Elsevier, 2026) Zhang, Hui; Wen, Jun; Huang, Keji; Kozak, Metin; Fan, YunyunThis study examines the visitors' experience while participating in the Dachaotai in Mount Wutai through the prism of Chinese Zen philosophy. Data was collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and online texts. This study subsequently analyzed the data within the framework of the means-end chain model through which four attributes, six consequences, and three values were identified. The results showed that an attribute-consequence-value hierarchical value map of the original face could be constructed, and the formation process of visitors' original face was deduced. The value stratum of the experience regarding visitors' original face primarily encompassed "Free flow of thoughts", "Being in one's own mind", and "Epiphany",which could be interpreted within the principal tenets of Zen Buddhism. The research findings contribute to the existing body of knowledge about Buddhist pilgrimage tourism and bridge the gap that exists between Chinese Zen philosophy and tourist experience.Article Citation - Scopus: 6Managing Crisis in the Tourism Industry: How Pessimism Has Changed To Optimism?(Institute for Tourism, 2022) Günaydın,Y.; Kozak,M.This study aims to investigate how the coronavirus has resulted in harmful effects on the tourism industry and how it has most likely shaken the common traditional practices that the industry had followed for years. With a chronological order, this is a case study focusing on personal observations and also personal communication with hoteliers and retailers commencing from the early weeks to the end of 2020 in Turkey. The study has resulted in the categorization of risks, challenges and responses under 10 parts. The study also provides implications for the literature and the industry at the business and destination level altogether. © 2022 The Author(s)Article Alienation and Hedonic Values in Mass Tourism(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis LTD, 2025) Golcheshmeh, Sueheyla; Kozak, MetinThis study aims to reveal (1) the alienation of tourists, (2) whether locals experience alienation or not, and (3) the kind of relationship between alienation, hedonic consumption and hedonic wellbeing. The study employed a qualitative research method on two samples of locals and domestic tourists. Study findings demonstrate that locals' deprivation of hedonic consumption and alienation may negatively affect their hedonic wellbeing. Tourists may experience alienation because they hardly meet their hedonic consumption needs. The study contributes to the gap in the current tourism literature dealing with alienation, which tourists and residents can experience. The study also develops an understanding of the approaches to the subjects of tourist motivations, attitudes of locals, and impacts of tourism.Article Citation - WoS: 20Citation - Scopus: 28Negotiating Interdisciplinary Practice Under the Covid-19 Crisis: Opportunities and Challenges for Tourism Research(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2022) Liu, Xinyi; Wen, Jun; Kozak, Metin; Jiang, Yangyang; Li, ZhiyongPurpose COVID-19 is currently the most serious crisis facing the world, and scholars in the medical and social sciences are working to save lives and mitigate the societal effects of the pandemic. This global public health emergency requires interdisciplinary work to provide comprehensive insight into a rapidly changing situation. However, attempts to integrate the medical and social sciences have met several barriers. This paper aims to identify feasible research opportunities for interdisciplinary studies across tourism and public health regarding COVID-19. Design/methodology/approach This paper presents a critical review of the literature and generates corresponding conceptual and theoretical frameworks to provide an in-depth discussion. Findings Tourism-related issues of destination management policies and capital are addressed from an interdisciplinary perspective. The conclusions encourage interdisciplinary research into global health problems, which will promote tourism's renaissance and sustainable development while enhancing social welfare. Practical implications This study focuses on integrating tourism and public health to offer stakeholders recommendations regarding destination management and tourism industry recovery amid COVID-19. Originality/value This paper represents a frontier study, critically uncovering a host of innovative interdisciplinary research directions and tourism-focused collaboration opportunities related to COVID-19.Article Citation - Scopus: 13Beyond Sightseeing: How Can Tourism Affect Public/Global Health in Modern Society?(University of Edinburgh, 2022) Wen,J.; Kozak,M.; Jiang,Y.[No abstract available]Article Turizm Alanyazınında Akademik Üretim ve İş Birliği Bakımından Kaydedilen Gelişmeler: Türkiye ve Dünya Kıyaslaması(2025) Kozak, Metin; Başer, Miraç YücelTurizm endüstrisinde yaşanan dönüşümlerin şüphesiz ulusal ve uluslararası turizm alanyazınının gelişimine ve farklı araştırma temalarında değişime yol açtığı bilinmektedir. Bu doğrultuda alanyazındaki akademik ve entelektüel gelişimi ortaya koymak amacıyla yürütülen çalışmalar giderek önemini korumaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, farklı dönemler bazında Türkiye’deki turizm ile ilgili makale sayısı ve içeriğinde meydana gelen değişimin belirlenerek dünya ile kıyaslanması ve yürütülen ortak çalışmaların içeriği ve türü konusunda da kapsamlı bir analiz yapılmasıdır. Bu amaçla mevcut çalışma WOS ve SCOPUS veri tabanlarında taranan 126 farklı dergide yayımlanmış 2.163 Türkiye ve 73.779 uluslararası adresli makaleyi bibliyometrik yaklaşımla Bibliometrix kütüphanesi kullanılarak incelemiştir. Bulgular Türkiye adresli uluslararası yayınlarda yaşanan artışın beraberinde ortak yazarlı çalışmaları da arttırdığını, buna karşın bu çalışmalarda etnik iş birliklerinin ağır bastığını da göstermektedir. Yanı sıra Türkiye adresli yayınlarda son yıllarda metodolojik bir dönüşümün başladığı ve ilerleyen zamanlarda konu bakımından çeşitliliğin artacağı görülmektedir. Çalışma turizm alanyazındaki akademik üretim ve gelişim bakımından kapsamlı sonuç ve öneriler sunmaktadır.Book Part Introduction To the Handbook of Tourism and Consumer Behavior(Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd., 2024) Zheng, D.; Kozak, M.; Wen, J.Tourism plays a crucial role in human activity and significantly impacts the economy. This introduction explores the historical development of tourism and the evolution of consumer behavior, emphasizing the close connection between tourism and consumer choices. Unlike traditional consumption, tourist behaviors are active and location-focused, influenced by various internal and external factors, prioritizing unique experiences and brand loyalty while reducing post-consumption waste. Through an examination of current global challenges and technological advancements, the chapter anticipates future shifts in tourist behavior, including post-pandemic therapeutic tourism, niche exploration for memorable travel experiences, the transition to tech-savvy ‘smart’ travelers, the impact of social media on travel decision-making, and the rise of responsible travel as a social norm. The chapter concludes by discussing the book’s scope and expressing gratitude for contributions. © The Editors and Contributors Severally 2024.Article Citation - Scopus: 8Comparing Efficiency in All-Inclusive and Bed and Breakfast Hotel Businesses: a Multi-Period Data Envelopment Analysis in Turkey(Emerald Publishing, 2022) Günaydın, Y.; Correia, A.; Kozak, MetinPurpose: This paper aims to understand the most efficient hotel system and why efficiency varies across years and between the two differing types of hotel businesses in Turkey. Design/methodology/approach: A data envelopment analysis (DEA) analysis was used to characterise the efficiency of all-inclusive (AI) and bed and breakfast (B&B) hotel businesses with one output (total revenue) and three inputs (labour, food and capital costs). The Malmquist approach is then used to discern changes in total efficiency (TTE) and intertemporal shifts in the efficiency frontier (technological change (Tch)). Findings: The results reveal that the AI hotel operates at 100% efficiency in the summer and year-round. The B&B hotel business operates at 89.6% with variable constant returns to scale during the summer and with 100% efficiency. The results of the Malmquist approach indicate that the total factor productivity grew in the years 2015, 2016, 2018 and 2019, while the other years were marked by inefficiency. Such increases were due to technical efficiency change (TEch) and Tch, which means that managerial and allocative efficiency (AE) were barely achieved. Slight differences were noted in the two time periods (all year and summer), suggesting that the scale of hotel businesses is prepared to operate all year round, and this calls for strategies to mitigate seasonality. Research limitations/implications: As to avenues for future research, the limitations of this study are threefold. First, the hotel businesses are not parallel in terms of the duration of their service offerings. Future research may consider including an AI hotel business that is in operation for the whole year. Second, businesses in Turkey are sceptical about sharing their data as it is considered confidential. However, to better generalise the results and encourage hoteliers to consider the positive outcomes of such analysis, the number of observations could be increased by considering more hotel businesses in both categories. Third, a mixture of data representing businesses operating in various countries may reflect if the efficiency scores vary internationally. Practical implications: Overall, AI hotel businesses are more attractive but less efficient than B&B. Furthermore, the external crisis impacts the efficiency of hotel businesses meaning that hotel managers could keep on exploring AI, perhaps educating their hosts not to waste or not offer huge quantities. Hotel managers may also need to enlarge their seasonal activities to ensure more efficiency. Social implications: Despite the intentions of AI hotel businesses to increase their profitability with a lower level of service quality, this study shows that the AI hotel business is very attractive but not so efficient due to the higher propensity of guests to consume food and beverages in excess that compromises the definition of efficiency as zero waste. AI is very attractive for family groups or those seeking the pleasure of relaxation at seaside resorts and is also very popular in Turkey. On the other hand, the B&B hotel business is more efficient but less attractive. Originality/value: The contributions of this paper are threefold. First, the authors analysed the efficiency and inefficiency of hotel businesses within nine years of operations. During this period, Turkey experienced first a tourism boom (2011–2014) followed by stagnation and subsequently a sharp decline due to political instability resulting in an (in)direct impact on tourism (2015–2019). Second, the authors compared the efficiency and inefficiency of AI and B&B hotel businesses. Third, the authors examined the effects of hotel management factors to ensure efficiency. © 2022, Yusuf Günaydın, Antónia Correia and Metin Kozak.Book Part Luxury Tourism(Springer Nature, 2025) Correia, A.; Kozak, M.Editorial Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 9Revitalizing Tourism Research(Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2025) Buckley, Ralf; Kozak, Metin; Wen, Jun; Cooper, Mary-Ann
