餐飲選擇因變化快、類型多，人們常使用線上評論來協助搜尋資料。同時AI科技的進步，不同語言所撰的線上評論都會轉換成使用者習慣的語言，也讓評選餐廳時多了不同的選擇。本研究設定韓國旅遊時的餐廳選擇，擬探討旅客在面對
當地人評論與台灣人評論，會更偏好相信誰的評論呢？
實驗一說明個體調節焦點不同，會偏好不同的評論類型。結果發現，促進焦點因特質而更願意冒險嘗試，故傾向選擇翻譯後的口碑。預防焦點的人們則比較偏好本國人的評論，因可確認彼此口味接近，避免踩雷。
實驗二從解釋水平理論來分析，結果發現，因需要達成訊息配適，所以距離出國的時間較遠，台灣人會更相信社交距離較遠的外國人經翻譯口碑。

People often use online reviews to help search for information to do the dining options. At the same time, with the advancement of AI technology, online reviews written in different languages will be converted into the language that users are accustomed to, which also gives different choices when selecting restaurants. This study sets up restaurant choices when traveling in Korea, and intends to explore whose comments do tourists prefer to trust when faced with comments from locals and Taiwanese?
Test 1 shows that individuals with different adjustment focus will prefer different
types of comments. It turns out that the promotion focus is more willing to take risks
because of its characteristics, so it tends to choose the word-of-mouth after translation. People in the focus of prevention prefer the comments of their own people, because they can confirm that they have similar tastes and avoid stepping on mines.
Test 2 analyzed from the interpretation level theory, and found that because of the need to achieve a message fit, so the time away from going abroad is longer, Taiwanese people will be more likely to believe that foreigners with longer social distances will be translated word of mouth.
