This study integrates the cognitive appraisal theory and script theory, highlighting the bridging role played by recollective memory. The relationships between visitors’ appraisals, emotions, recollection, storytelling and repurchase intention as they relate to the luxury cruise trip experience were assessed. We developed 14 theoretical hypotheses from a literature review. We then tested these hypotheses using data collected from 300 luxury cruise passengers. To the best of our knowledge this study is the first to incorporate the cognitive appraisal approach into script theory in a luxury tourism setting. Our work discloses that these two theories complement each other and recollection is the tie between them. This research reinforces the theoretical literature on cognitive appraisal and script theory. Moreover, the luxury cruise sector is under pressure due to fierce competition and as a result there is a need to acknowledge the crucial determinants of tourists’ emotional reactions. An understanding of tourists’ emotional experiences, and their antecedents and consequences will aid in the formulation of strategic marketing, segmentation, and communication efforts. The results of our study confirm that different emotional reactions can be elicited due to the power of four appraisal dimensions: appetitive goal congruence, certainty, novelty and agency. The findings not only enrich the cognitive appraisal framework and script theory literature but also provide guidance for managerial and marketing strategies of cruise industry practitioners.

Purpose: This study investigated the mediating roles of mindfulness as a coping strategy in the relationships between cognitive appraisals and effort/persistence in university dance classes. Methods: The participants were 428 undergraduates (78 males, 350 females) ranging in age from 18 to 27 (M=20.18, SD= 1.62). Data were analyzed via structural equation modeling using IBM SPSS Statistic 21 and AMOS 21. Results: Structural equation modelling analysis revealed that challenge appraisal predicted mindfulness, which, in turn, linked to students effort and persistence. In contrast, threat appraisal was unrelated to mindfulness, which, in turn, was not predictive of students' effort and persistence. Conclusion: The results of the study suggest that mindfulness partially mediated the relation between challenge appraisal to stressful events and effort/persistence in dance classes. Implications for the role of mindfulness in stress are discussed.

이 연구는 스포츠 경쟁 상황에서 고교 운동선수의 인지평가(도전과 위협), 정서조절, 정서 및 수행만족간의 구조적 관계와 연구모형의 교차타당성을 검증하였다. 연구 1(N =169, 남자=120명, 여자=49명)은 국문판 인지평가와 정서조절 질문지의 타당도와 신뢰도를 평가하였고, 연구 2(N =473, 남자=318명, 여자=155명)는 경쟁 시 인지평가와 수행만족 간의 관계에서 정서조절과 정서의 다중매개효과를 검증하였다. 연구1에서 시행된 확인적 요인분석의 결과, 인지평가 질문지와 정서조절 질문지의 타당도와 신뢰도는 비교적 양호한 것으로 확인되었다. 연구 2에서 구조방정식모형 분석 결과는 3개의 가설적 매개모형을 지지한 것으로 나타났다. 정서조절(재평가, 억제)과 유쾌한 정서가 도전상태와 수행만족 간의 관계를 부분 매개하며, 정서 억제와 유쾌한 정서는 위협상태와 수행만족 간의 관계를 완전 매개하였다. 다중집단분석의 결과 구조계수는 집단 간에 동일한 것으로 나타났다. 본 결과는 경쟁 시 선수들의 정서조절 전략과 정서반응의 역할과 관련하여 논의되었다.
