In the era of digital globalization, international travelers increasingly rely on online information to mitigate perceived risks and reduce decision-making uncertainty. Among various digital sources, electronic word-of-mouth (eWOM)—particularly online consumer reviews—has emerged as a highly credible and influential factor in shaping travel decisions. This study examines the moderating role of online reviews in the relationship between destination image and travel intention, with a focus on the cognitive and affective dimensions of destination image. Data were collected from 247 respondents in Taiwan using convenience sampling. The findings reveal that both cognitive and affective components of destination image are significantly associated with travel intention. Furthermore, the presence of either positive or negative online reviews significantly moderates these relationships. These results underscore the importance of integrating digital review management with destination image strategies to strengthen travel appeal and influence recommendation behavior. |
