| description | The advancement of technology has significantly transformed various activities in human life, including tourism.
Mobile technology, especially mobile applications, has become an integral part of users’ travel experiences. Generation Z, with
their natural and proficient access to technology, has become one of the primary user groups of mobile applications in the tourism
industry. Recognizing the lack of research on the intention to use mobile applications in tourism, particularly of Generation Z in
Vietnam, a generation expected to reshape the tourism industry in the future, this study aims to investigate how personal
innovativeness influences the intention to use mobile applications in tourism among Generation Z and mediation of attitudes. To test
the proposed hypotheses, the study conducted an online survey using Google Forms targeting Generation Z individuals living and
working in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. A total of 318 participants took part in the survey. The collected data were analyzed using
the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method. Based on the research findings, the study proposed
potential solutions for mobile application development businesses, destination management organizations, tourism businesses to
enhance the intention to use mobile applications in tourism among Generation Z in Ho Chi Minh City and Vietnam as a whole. |
