Example: The first Syngress Building Lego book, Building Robots with Lego Mindstorms, was a bestselling book: 35,000 copies worldwide. The Ultimate Tool for MINDSTORMS Maniacs The new MINDSTORMS® kit has been updated to include a programming brick, USB cPurpose – The main purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between ranges of affective
components that have an impact on the revisit intention of museum visitors, in the context of a major city event.
The study reveals the most significant factors that affect decision-making by applying the findings to a
structural equation modelling (SEM) and conditional inference tree (CTree).
Design/methodology/approach – The paper utilises face-to-face survey research at the "Long Night of
Museums" event in Saint Petersburg, 298 questionnaires were completed on the night of the event. The
empirical part of the research is based on the SEM and interpreted by using the CTree. The SEM model
measures the direct and indirect influence of the cognitive and affective components; the CTree enables the
testing of both components and the joint effect they both produce.
Findings – This study shows a strong indirect correlation between the cognitive component of the major city
event and the revisit intention of museum visitors. When focussing on affective components, both the SEM and
the CTree demonstrated that attractiveness and atmosphere are revealed to be the most impactful elements
regarding visitor retention and repeat custom. The research allows for a deeper understanding of visitor
behaviours, intentions and their decision-making processes.
Practical implications – The results of the study allow museum managers to understand how to create
repeat custom amongst visitors, by appreciating the importance of participation in major city events and
the role that attraction and atmosphere play when creating intention for repeat visit. The research
has uncovered which dimensions are the most important to visitors, and as a result, these particular
dimensions should be thoroughly developed by museums in future in order to attract and repeat visits.
This study has demonstrated the practical implications for museums participating in city events. When
considering policy makers, this particular research provides an opportunity to develop recommendations
for future city events, as well as using the CTree to assess and predict the effectiveness of visitor
behaviour.
Originality/value – This is an original study which aims to integrate the impact of the perceived value of the
cognitive component and a new range of affective elements regarding museum retention in the context of a
major city event. The study includes newly developed dimensions of perceived value, as well as a unique focus
on affective dimensions such as – atmosphere and attraction. Another point of originality is provided by usingable, RJ11-like cables, motors, and sensors a CTree, which captures an in depth understanding of the intention formation process. This study provides an
opportunity to advance our understanding of visitor decision-making processes.
