<![CDATA[Generation Z shows a high dependence on online reviews and recommendations (eWOM) as a primary reference in purchasing decisions, particularly in the context of accommodation selection. This study aims to examine the decision-making styles of Generation Z consumers, as conceptualized within the Consumer Style Inventory (CSI) framework, and to examine how these styles influence the use of electronic word-of-mouth (eWOM) in accommodation selection, as well as their relationship with purchase intention. Data collection was conducted through a questionnaire distributed via social media. This study used Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) SmartPLS to analyse data collected from 220 Generation Z respondents.

These findings indicate that consumers who perceive eWOM activities as enjoyable are more likely to engage with online reviews before making accommodation-related decisions.]]>
