Abstract

In recent years, tourism has increased significantly, especially in developing countries, due to the development of infrastructures like good roads, well-connected airports, and hygienic accommodation facilities. However, the host community's attitude is critical for a tourism destination's strategic growth, development, and sustainability. As such, this study analyses attitudes and perceptions of the local community in Thrissur, a famous cultural destination in Kerala, India. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) was adopted to develop a model for perceived tourism support with community attachment and overall quality of life. This model uses seven constructs: temple place image, economic benefits, social benefits, physical benefits, community attachment, overall quality of life, and perceived tourism support with forty-four attributes. The result indicates that Temple place image, socioeconomic and physical benefits, community attachment, and overall quality of life are predominant determiners for perceived tourism support of the local community.

社区对宗教旅游的支持
近年来,旅游业显著增长,特别是在发展中国家,由于基础设施的发展,如良好的道路,连接良好的机场,卫生的住宿设施。然而,当地社区的态度对旅游目的地的战略增长、发展和可持续性至关重要。因此,本研究分析了印度喀拉拉邦著名的文化目的地Thrissur当地社区的态度和看法。本文采用结构方程模型(SEM)建立了一个感知旅游支持度与社区依恋和整体生活质量的关系模型。该模型采用寺庙场所形象、经济效益、社会效益、物质效益、社区依恋、整体生活质量和感知旅游支持度七个构式,共44个属性。结果表明,寺庙场所形象、社会经济和物质效益、社区依恋和整体生活质量是当地社区感知旅游支持度的主要决定因素。
