摘要
The travel and tourism segment has recently seen some of the most considerable growth in in-teractive kiosks because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Consequently, it is important for compa-nies to understand how customers feel when they are using these kiosks. This research answers the call for research of automation in tourism as a social phenomenon (Tussyadiah, 2020) by investigating the role of a social emotion - anticipated technology embarrassment. This research identifies anticipated technology embarrassment as a negative emotion that may hinder interactive kiosks' usage. Moreover, this study suggests that specific queue design and queue distractor can effectively reduce anticipated technology embarrassment. Two obser-vational field studies and three lab experiments confirm our hypotheses.(c) 2022 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
