Item type:Publication, Artificial Intelligence to Identify Factors Linking with Purchase Intention in Restaurants in Ecuador(Springer Nature Switzerland, 2026) ;Mikel Ugando Peñate ;Ángel Ramón Sabando García ;Reinaldo Armas Herrera ;Angel Alexander Higuerey GómezThe objective of the research is to determine the binding and determining factors with purchase intention and consumer access to food services in 4 and 5 fork establishments in Quito, Pichincha province, Ecuador employing artificial intelligence. An updated database of the Tourism Establishment Cadastre of the Ministry of Tourism as of June 2024 was used, including 418 restaurants in this classification. A structural equation model (SEM), with PLS-SEM approach, is proposed as a methodology, with an exploratory and confirmatory approach, generating coefficients by means of artificial intelligence for the items and constructs and the validation of hypotheses. Data analysis uses SPSS version 25 and the AMOS version 24 interface. Partial results highlight the binding and deterministic factors with purchase intention in restaurants, Staff Service β = 0.207; R2 = 0.348 (0,000), Psychological β = 0.192; R2 = 0.369 (0,000), Technological β = 0.092; R2 = 0.210 (0,000). Evidence Physical and Social factors had an incidence rate of 95%. Evidence Physical and Social factors had an incidence rate of 95%. In addition, it has convergent and discriminant validity and excellent critical reliability in terms of purchase intention. However, it should be noted that the Personal factor, although it presents an important bond with the Social factor is not determinant with a negative correlation and little significant in the consumer's attitude, which contrasts with the existence of a homogeneous bond with the Psychological factor and the Social factor, that are not oriented to its determination. Furthermore, there is no evidence of acceptance the hypothesis H4 (The Personal factor positively influences consumer purchase intention). - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Evaluación del potencial de Quito como destino turístico inteligente: desafíos en sostenibilidad, innovación y marketing digitalLos Destinos Turísticos Inteligentes han emergido como una estrategia clave para mejorar la experiencia del turista mediante el uso de tecnología, datos y sostenibilidad. En este contexto, el presente estudio analiza el potencial de la ciudad de Quito paraconvertirse en un destino turístico inteligente, evaluando sus condiciones actuales en dimensiones clave como gobernanza, sostenibilidad, accesibilidad, innovación, conectividad, inteligencia, información, marketing online y evolución de la actividad turística. A través de una metodología cualitativa basada en observación directa e indirecta, se aplicó la herramienta de autodiagnóstico Destinos Turísticos Inteligentes de la Comunitat Valenciana, adaptada al contexto ecuatoriano. Los resultados evidencian que Quito presenta un desempeño desigual entre las dimensiones evaluadas. Destaca en gobernanza y conectividad gracias a la existencia de planes estratégicos y servicios tecnológicos básicos, pero enfrenta debilidades notorias en sostenibilidad, innovación, accesibilidad y marketing digital. Se concluye que la transición de Quito hacia un Destino Turístico Inteligente requiere más que avances tecnológicos: demanda una visión estratégica sostenible que integre innovación, participación ciudadana y gobernanza colaborativa. La investigación subraya la necesidad de fortalecer la articulación entre actores públicos y privados para convertir los logros actuales en políticas de largo plazo que garanticen competitividad, sostenibilidad e inclusión en la gestión turística. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Psychological behavior of the Quito native on ecuadorian tourist security; Comportamiento psicológico del quiteño sobre la seguridad turística ecuatorianaEcuador is currently facing high levels of insecurity due to drug trafficking and organized gangs, which have impacted various economic sectors, including tourism. This study examines how motivation, attitude, learning, and perception influence tourists’ psychological behavior regarding tourism security. A quantitative study involving 307 participants confirmed the significant relationship of the measurement model, which includes 23 indicators: 5 for motivation, 4 for learning, 6 for attitude, and 8 for perception. The findings indicate that tourist motivation is driven by basic needs, with security being the primary criterion. Learning is associated with the destination’s brand value, attitude with the destination’s image, and perception of security as part of the service. In conclusion, tourists make decisions based on criteria defined by the brand, product, or service, with security being a key factor. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, The influence of personality and desires on motivation for selecting tourist destinations(Universidad de Guadalajara, 2024-09-01); María Alejandra Osorio EspínThe present study aims to analyze the relationship between a tourist’s personality traits and the diverse motivational factors that guide their selection of a travel destination. To conduct this research, we adopted a quantitative, cross-sectional approach, collecting information through a survey involving 384 participants in Quito. The results revealed that potential tourists consider various factors, including their needs, desires, available offerings, and personality traits, when choosing a destination. However, it was established that personality traits do not significantly influence tourism needs and offerings. Furthermore, desires do not serve as direct or indirect mediating variables between needs and offerings. In conclusion, an individual’s personality does not necessarily dictate motivation when selecting a tourist destination. This study provides a comprehensive view of how psychological and motivational factors interact in the complex decision-making process within tourism. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Desarrollo sostenible: un análisis desde el sector de alimentos y bebidasThis article aimed to understand the operational activities that gastronomic companies consider in the economic, social, and environmental spheres within the framework of sustainable development. Through a study methodology of non-experimental design, with a quantitative approach of exploratory, descriptive and cross-sectional level, and a data collection technique based on the survey, the correlation between three dimensions and 35 indicators was analyzed. The results showed that there is a greater awareness on the part of companies about social and economic principles than environmental ones; 21 indicators do not significantly align with the proposed model, and the variables of sustainable development can act as partial and total mediators among them. It is concluded that companies must consider the principles of sustainable development of each dimension, based on good business practices, to achieve a balanced model. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Impact of fermented chicha de jora on the technological properties of baguette bread(Informa UK Limited, 2026-02-21); ;Daniel Fierro-Mosquera; Guido Santamaría-SalazarFermentation plays a crucial role in breadmaking, directly influencing the technological quality of the final product through its content of sugars, yeasts, and lactic acid bacteria. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of incorporating fermented chicha de jora on bread’s technological properties, emphasizing its contribution to dough fermentation and structural development. An experimental design was employed, comparing a control formulation with three variants containing different proportions of chicha de jora, poolish, corn flour, and vegetable shortening. Key parameters such as loaf volume, height, and texture were analyzed. The results demonstrated that the formulation containing 30% chicha de jora, water, and poolish achieved the most favorable balance between dough expansion, fermentation rate, and product quality. Although the other formulations presented specific strengths, Recipe 4 showed superior overall performance. These findings suggest that chicha de jora enhances fermentation dynamics, crumb texture, and structural integrity while serving as a natural and functional alternative or complement to commercial yeast. Furthermore, its inclusion supports the valorization of traditional Andean ingredients, merging cultural heritage with technological innovation in breadmaking. The results position Recipe 4 as the most efficient and well-balanced formulation for producing high-quality baguette-type bread.
