Abstract

ABSTRACT This study showcases a structural model that explores residents' attitudes towards tourism developments and to what extent residents interface with destination sustainability strategies. Factors influencing these attitudes were examined using a model consisting of six latent constructs and eight path hypotheses. Findings from 432 resident-respondents from Bangkok, Thailand were analysed.  Utilising LISREL (linear structural equations), a confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modelling procedure were performed successively on the collected data. Results indicated that the residents' support is likely to be strongly affected by most constructs, except by the relationship between “sustainability attitudes” and “perceived negative tourism impacts”.  Two new relationships were added in the final model to better capture residents' attitudes in urban tourist destinations. The first determines the relationship between “sustainability attitudes” and “support for destination sustainability strategies” whilst the second explores the link between “tourism development's positive impact” to “support for destination sustainability strategies”.

居民对旅游可持续发展的态度、认知与支持
本研究展示了一个结构模型,该模型探讨了居民对旅游发展的态度,以及居民与目的地可持续发展战略的互动程度。影响这些态度的因素使用由六个潜在构念和八个路径假设组成的模型进行了检查。对来自泰国曼谷的432名居民的调查结果进行了分析。利用LISREL(线性结构方程),对收集的数据依次进行验证性因子分析和结构方程建模程序。结果表明,除了“可持续性态度”与“感知到的旅游负面影响”之间的关系外,居民的支持度可能受到大多数结构的强烈影响。在最终模型中增加了两个新的关系,以更好地捕捉城市旅游目的地居民的态度。第一项研究确定了“可持续发展态度”与“对目的地可持续发展战略的支持”之间的关系,第二项研究探讨了“旅游发展的积极影响”与“对目的地可持续发展战略的支持”之间的联系。
