Information Systems Faculty Publications and Presentations

IS research has linked collaborators from diverse domains. IS research requires selecting and addressing an appropriate intradisciplinary or interdisciplinary scope. Identifying gaps in the current literature and deciding when and how collaborations among different disciplines may be fruitful poses challenges.

Understanding And Treating Suboptimal Health Status Through Tourism Engagement: An Exploratory Study Of Chinese Domestic Tourists, Jun Wen, Danni Zheng, Ian Phau

Research outputs 2022 to 2026

Accordingly, this study examines tourists’ sociodemographic characteristics, tourism-related attributes, and lifestyle behaviors to compare individuals with SHS to those with optimal health status. Methods: Chinese tourists in Shandong Province, China who had visited Mount …
