    • Aktive turister gir verdier 

      Prebensen, Nina Katrine (Chronicle; Kronikk, 2013-06-20)
      Reiselivsnæringen i Norge forteller at turistene bruker mindre penger. Undersøkelser viser at turistene synes Norge er ensformig, kjedelig, og dyrt. Hva gjør norgesferien variert, spennende og verdifull? Hva gir valuta for pengene? Det å forstå hvordan verdier skapes i opplevelsesbransjene er grunnleggende for økt lønnsomhet, konkurransekraft og bærekraftighet. Opplevelsesindustrien blir i stor ...
    • Digital forretningsmodellinnovasjon: Filmfestival i endring 

      Prebensen, Nina Katrine; Burmester, Michael; Aspvik, Preben (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2021)
      Publikum besøker filmfestivaler, alene eller sammen med andre mennesker, fordi de gir verdifulle opplevelser. Uansett motiver for å delta på en filmfestival er tilstedeværelsen avgjørende for øyeblikkopplevelsen. Digitalisering samt siste års pandemi har vist oss at denne tilstedeværelsen kan være digital så vel som fysisk. Nye, innovative teknologiløsninger kan hjelpe bedrifter og reisemål til å ...

      Mathis, Elaine F.; Kim, Hyelin; Uysal, Muzzafer; Sirgy, Joseph M.; Prebensen, Nina Katrine (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-01-04)
      This study examines the underlying dimensions of co-creation of an experience in the context of tourism and its effects on behavioral consequences such as tourists’ satisfaction with the co-creation of an experience, subjective well-being, and loyalty to the service provider. The purpose of the study is achieved by showing that that tourists’ co-creation of an experience positively affects the ...
    • Efficacy of co-creation and mastering on perceived value and satisfaction in tourists' consumption 

      Prebensen, Nina Katrine; Xie, Jinghua (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2016-12-07)
      This study explores effects of participation, namely co-creation and mastering, on the perceived value of consumers' experience and satisfaction. Co-creation comprises both physical and psychological (mental) participation, and mastering represents consumers' self-perceived knowledge and skills in taking part in experiential activities. Adventure tourism is chosen as the setting. A logit model is ...
    • Experience value as a function of hedonic and utilitarian dominant services 

      Prebensen, Nina Katrine; Rosengren, Sara Therese (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-01)
      The purpose of this paper is to examine the relative importance of dimensions of experience value in four different hedonic- and utilitarian-dominated services. The proposed hypotheses are tested by an experimental design. Altogether, four different service experiences, taking place during a tourist weekend trip, were studied using a scenario-based approach. In total, 938 members of a nationally ...
    • Human value co-creation behavior in tourism: Insight from an Australian whale watching experience 

      Xie, Jinghua; Tkaczynski, Aaron; Prebensen, Nina Katrine (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-06-04)
      This study explores and tests a comprehensive model of co-creation in creating value and tourist satisfaction. In addition to being the first study to empirically test the customer value co-creation behavior scale developed by Yi and Gong (2013), the present work adds to theory by revealing the importance of tourists' mental co-creation and employees' active participation in creating value and ...
    • Japanese tourists’ relatedness and connectedness with nature 

      Prebensen, Nina Katrine; Lee, Young-Sook; Kim, Hyelin Lina (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-05-15)
      Nature-based tourism continues to gain importance globally. Research on sustainability claims that disconnection between nature and humanity may contribute to the environmental problems that we face in the 21st century. It is, thus, quintessential to better understand the underlying variables for sustainable behaviour in a tourism context. Research suggests scales on nature relatedness (NRS) and ...
    • Novelty in tourism experiences: the influence of physical staging and human interaction on behavioural intentions 

      Blomstervik, Ingvild; Prebensen, Nina Katrine; Campos, Ana Claudia; Pinto, Patricia (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-12-15)
      Tourists’ tendency to choose new and different experiences and destinations is well known in tourism research and practice. By drawing on social exchange theory and service-dominant logic, the present study investigates how physical staging and human interaction influence behavioural intentions in experiences with varying levels of novelty. This relationship is tested using survey data collected ...

      This research delineates the underlying markets of Swedish travelers visiting nature-based destinations in Norway. A total of 2,034 respondents are partitioned into mutually exclusive groups, based on the following four nature-related travel motivations: (1) to experience Norwegian nature, (2) to be active in nature, (3) to travel in a country that takes the environment seriously, and (4) to get ...
    • Samskaping av verdier som fundament for eventers suksess 

      Prebensen, Nina Katrine (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2019)
      Eventer er arenaer og møteplasser for underholdning, forlystelse og moro. Nøkkelen til eventers suksess er å tilrettelegge for at besøkende og andre interessenter deltar i å skape verdier for dem selv og for andre. Eventer kan dermed ses på som infrastruktur for deltakelse og samskaping av ulike verdier. Med utgangspunkt i nyere markedsføringsperspektiver og nettverksteori tar jeg i dette kapitlet ...
    • Value creation and co-creation experiences: an East Asian cultural knowledge framework approach 

      Lee, Young-Sook; Prebensen, Nina Katrine (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2018)
      This chapter proposes an 'East Asian cultural knowledge framework' based on the main East Asian cultural philosophies and revisits some previous study findings in order to facilitate a deeper understanding of the East Asian tourist behaviours. The proposed framework is expected to inform researchers on, at fundamental level, the tourists' value creation and co-creation and East Asian tourists' ...
