EVALUACIÓN DE LOS ATRIBUTOS DE LOS CHATBOTS QUE SON MÁS EFECTIVOS EN LA INTERACCIÓN CON EL TURISTA: ESTUDIO DE CASO DEL CHATBOT “VICTORIA LA MALAGUEÑA”
Resumen
Los chatbots están transformado la comunicación turística y han tenido una rápida adopción en la industria del turismo. Pero a pesar de su implementación en el sector, no hay estudios que analicen la efectividad de su uso en la organización de viajes. Por ello, este estudio mide la percepción del turista durante el uso del chatbot “Victoria la Malagueña” a través de los atributos: informatividad, empatía, accesibilidad e interactividad. En el procesamiento de datos se utilizó el análisis factorial exploratorio y confirmatorio. Los hallazgos sugieren que la informatividad y empatía son los atributos del chatbot más valorado por los usuarios.
