Abstract

In this paper, we mainly concentrate on when and how temporal distance shapes individual’s post-disaster willingness to travel. Through a text analysis from 13000 comments from a social platform, we found that people tend to publish their comments more emotionally and gradually to be transformed into rationally as time increases. Findings suggest that temporal distance can hurt peoples’ emotional intensities. However, it also can increase willingness to visit because negative emotion is impaired more than positive emotion. In addition, we demonstrated the interaction effect of temporal distance and emotion-that is, invert-U and U shape function were found for people’s willingness to visit.
