Abstract

A gap exists in the research on how online media frame a tourism crisis and its effects on travel intentions. This research proposed a basic crisis frames model for public online communications including nature (N), causes (C), processes (P), and results (R). Chinese online public opinions on the Thailand drownings in 2018 were collected and the Vector Auto-Regressive (VAR) technique explored the responses within the data. The results showed that: (1) the crisis frames had a dynamic impact on negative travel intentions, and the effects and variance contributions of frames differed; (2) disturbance information produced by a negative communication incident from the destination was a factor promoting the accumulation of online public opinions; and (3) online data of public opinions and the VAR model are appropriate for research about tourism crisis information communication. This research provides new insights and a method for investigating tourism crises and dynamic responses in online communication.
