Resumen

Basado en la Teoría de Procesos Duales (TPD), este artículo investigó la importancia del procesamiento de los atributos de las reseñas en línea por los sistemas cognitivos en el proceso de toma de decisiones de los viajeros. Se utilizaron redes neuronales tipo Transformer para un análisis textual multidimensional de 89,290 reseñas en línea (RE). La investigación cuantitativa probó las hipótesis mediante tres algoritmos de aprendizaje automático: árboles de decisión, random forest y XGBoost, utilizando la técnica de importancia de características. Los resultados indicaron que los sistemas 1 (procesamiento heurístico, rápido e intuitivo) y 2 (procesamiento sistemático, lento y racional) operan de manera simultánea y complementaria en el proceso de toma de decisiones y muestran un efecto aditivo. El sistema 2 desempeña un papel significativo en la toma de decisiones de los viajeros, esto es, los consumidores examinan cuidadosamente el contenido de las RE antes de reservar un hotel. La investigación enriquece la comprensión de la aplicación de la TPD en los procesos de toma de decisiones en línea y amplía su alcance al proponer el análisis multidimensional del contenido de plataformas digitales. El estudio también contribuye a la gestión hotelera al identificar la importancia de cada dimensión de las RE.
