This study proposes a development model of visitors' intention to use social networks at tourism spots, based on social capital theory and the concepts of cognitive pleasure, tourist attraction imagery, and cognitive similarity. The participants of the study were visitors at the Taroko National Park, Taiwan, who are Facebook users. A survey was conducted by random sampling and 418 valid questionnaires were collected. The effective questionnaire recovery rate was 83.6%. SPSS 20.0 and AMOS 20.0 were used to verify the hypotheses through structural equation modeling (SEM). Results found: (1) Bonding social capital and bridging social capital have a significant positive impact on the formation of cognitive pleasure, tourist attraction imagery, and cognitive similarity. (2) Cognitive pleasure, tourist attraction imagery, and cognitive similarity have a significantly positive impact on visitors' intention to use Facebook. (3) The overall development model framework of visitors' intention to use social networks has achieved a considerable level of adaptation. |
