Abstract
Risk perception research plays a critical role in tourism studies, given its ability to shape the appeal and viability of destinations. There has been a surge in research on tourism risk perception and travel-related behaviors due to the pandemic. This context offers a unique opportunity to review and aggregate risk perception studies to identify behavior patterns and changes. Accordingly, this study adopted the PSALSAR framework to analyze these studies, which consists of a synthesized literature review and a meta-analysis of tests involving competing theoretical models. The synthesis revealed the various behavioral outcomes and diverse theoretical backgrounds included in the sample. Our meta-analysis uncovered the model with an optimal fit and delineated the relationships among tourists' cognitive and affective risk perceptions, efficacy beliefs, and behavior across different stages. This study offers theoretical and empirical insights into the effects of tourists' risk perception attitude variables. Findings can inform more effective tourism crisis management strategies for destination management and marketing.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Destination Marketing & Management (JDMM) is an international journal that focuses on the study of tourist destinations, specifically their marketing and management. It aims to provide a critical understanding of all aspects of destination marketing and management, considering their unique contexts in terms of policy, planning, economics, geography, and history. The journal seeks to develop a strong theoretical foundation in this field by incorporating knowledge from various disciplinary approaches. Additionally, JDMM aims to promote critical thinking and innovation in destination marketing and management, expand the boundaries of knowledge, and serve as a platform for international idea exchange.
