Augmented reality technology has emerged as one of the main trends in the digital market in recent years. This innovative technology, due to its appeal and potential, has been repeatedly applied in innovative businesses. The aim of this study is to conduct a systematic and comprehensive review using a bibliometric approach on the citation data of literature related to purchase decision-making based on augmented reality technology. A pragmatic paradigm allowed the researcher to systematically collect citation data from the Scopus database and preprocess it following the standard PRISMA protocol. Ultimately, 239 studies were included in the bibliometric analysis using R Studio and Vosviewer software. The final results identified the most influential documents, authors, journals, organizations, and countries, and highlighted key points regarding buyer behavior and purchase decision-making with augmented reality in virtual businesses through interactive patterns between elements and content analysis of the data. Additionally, it is noteworthy that this concept mainly revolves around five primary areas: virtual and psychological experiences of buyers in online shopping with augmented reality; the impact of artificial intelligence on new technologies in buyer behavior; interactions of technology, perceived value, and cognition on buyer experience in retail using mobile augmented reality; the role of augmented reality technology in purchase decision-making and smart shopping in the virtual space. The influential school of thought on augmented reality technology in buyer decision-making is associated with the stimulus-organism-response theory, which forms the intellectual foundation of this field.

Augmented Reality (AR) is an emerging topic for managers across different disciplines While augmented reality technology literature is growing, there is no comprehensive analysis of augmented reality technology in marketing transformation The research aims to bridge the knowledge gap by providing a multifaceted bibliographic overview of augmented reality technology literature in marketing and reveal its trends, areas of focus and intellectual foundations. The study is based on 496 articles published on Web of Science between 1996 and 2023. According to the findings, the concept mainly revolves around seven main areas: human-machine interaction in future of digital marketing and Metaverse, advertising and customer response in online purchases, marketing challenges in industry 4 and new technologies, the effect of virtual technology on customer loyalty in retail, adoption of behavioral technology of Tourism customers, augmented reality technology marketing in the decision-making process of buyers and brands, and finally the richness of social media in e-commerce in Covid 19. While priorities and research topics have evolved over time, key concepts such as buying experience, shopper behavior, buying decision making, technology adoption have been repeated. The three influential schools of augmented reality technology in marketing are associated with integrated theory, planned behavior theory (TPB) and cognitive evaluation theory that have shaped the intellectual foundations of the discipline but we believe that a greater diversity of fields is needed to examine and describe augmented reality technology in marketing transformation.

This transformation is effective in all dimensions of business activities and causes fundamental changes in the way organizations function and provide value to consumers. Blockchain technology is one of the most promising technologies of this century that has the potential to bring about fundamental changes in business models in a wide range of industries. In the current competitive environment, marketing managers know that forming and maintaining relationships in the digital space is essential(Hussain Zahid,2021). The benefits of digital marketing in the aviation industry include making the user more active, providing rich content to the customer, providing airport services to the customer digitally, increasing the speed and convenience of transactions, increasing customer satisfaction, reducing workload and increasing the utilization of airlines(Keke, 2022).Today, blockchain has strongly influenced business models(Jain et al,2022)Blockchain has also changed the way digital marketing works(Nilsson&Ali,2018). The most important requirements in the aviation industry are high data security, protection against unauthorized access and privacy. Blockchain technology can help digitize the aviation industry and create new business models(Kehoe&Hallahan,2017). One of the capabilities of blockchain technology is providing a customer loyalty program. Blockchain technology can help passengers to buy tickets using digital currency and eliminate the chance of selling and buying duplicate tickets) Ahmad et al, 2021 (. Blockchain creates complete transparency and brand traceability in digital marketing (Stone&Woodcock,2014). The purpose of this study is to identify and classify the antecedents of the development of digital marketing based on blockchain technology from the point of view of airline marketing experts. Literature ReviewMarketing is a social and managerial process through which people and organizations get what they need by creating and exchanging value with others) Kotler et al,2017(Many companies invest in digital marketing as a factor in the development and sustainability of future business(Al-bawaia,2022). Blockchain is a peer-to-peer digital ledger of transactions that may exist publicly or privately between users(Rennock et al,2018). Blockchain features are decentralization, immutability, transparency and auditability of transactions(Monrat et al,2019). Due to the need to develop air transportation in the country, 18 airlines are engaged in air transportation activities. The airline industry is part of a highly interconnected ecosystem of various players including aircraft and aircraft component manufacturers, lessors, airports, freight forwarders, global distribution system providers and online travel agencies. Airlines are at the heart of this ecosystem. Today, the airline industry must include the use of modern technologies in its plan to provide better services to passengers(Riechmann,2020) MethodologyThe current research seeks to identify the antecedents of the development of digital marketing based on blockchain technology from the perspective of marketing experts in the aviation industry, which was conducted in a combined method, in this research, first by reviewing the literature and semi-structured interviews, the factors affecting the development of digital marketing based on blockchain technology China was extracted and finalized with the help of experts. Then these factors were given to 22 aviation industry marketing experts in the form of Q cards. These people were selected purposefully and finally their opinions were analyzed using exploratory factor analysis. ResultsThe participants in this research have 6 different views and their mental patterns are categorized based on market variables, internal, content, technological, human and environmental factors. According to the views of the participants, 6 identified mental patterns explain 75.194% of the total variance. The first mental pattern is 19.283%, the second mental pattern is 13.459%, the third mental pattern is 11.585%, the fourth mental pattern is 11.375%, the fifth pattern is 10.080% and the sixth pattern is 9.142%.Discussion and ConclusionInvestigations show that no such research has been done in this organization and similar organizations. The results were also compared with previous researches. Although the method used in this research has not been used in previous researches; But some of the results obtained are similar to the researches (Lopes et al, 2021), (Antoniadis et al, 2019) and(Hosseinpouli Mamaghani et al, 2021) and the effect of variables The development of digital marketing based on blockchain technology is confirmed in this research. Market variable, existing competition, competitors' strategy and increasing demand in digital marketing in the aviation industry have been the most important from the point of view of marketing experts in the aviation industry. It seems that the focus on market factors is due to the fierce competition between airlines, which shows that managers in this industry should pay more attention to these categories. The results of this research can help decision makers and policy makers in adopting a suitable strategy for the development of digital marketing and strengthen digital marketing in airlines.
