Abstract

Building on previous research that claims tourists’ perceived authenticity is an antecedent to place attachment, this study explored the relationship between the two theoretical constructs. Specifically, the mechanism between perceived authenticity, place attachment, and loyalty was empirically tested. The data were collected at Kaiping Diaolou and Villages, and the Old Town of Lijiang, two UNESCO heritage sites in southern China. Contrary to previous studies, the findings indicate that (1) perceived authenticity can be an antecedent to place attachment, (2) across both sites, tourists’ perceived authenticity of architecture or intangible heritage exhibited various effects on different components of place attachment, (3) the constituents of place attachment significantly influence loyalty, and (4) place attachment mediates between perceived authenticity and loyalty. This study provided a refined understanding of the dynamics between perceived authenticity and place attachment and offered practical implications for heritage management and marketing.

感知真实性与地点依恋——中国世界遗产的新发现
基于先前的研究,即游客的感知真实性是地方依恋的前提,本研究探讨了这两个理论结构之间的关系。具体而言,对感知真实性、地点依恋和忠诚度之间的机制进行了实证检验。这些数据是在中国南方的两个联合国教科文组织遗产开平碉楼和村庄以及丽江古城收集的。与以往的研究相反,研究结果表明:(1)感知真实性可能是地方依恋的先行因素;(2)在这两个地点,游客对建筑或非物质遗产的感知真实性对地方依恋的不同组成部分表现出不同的影响;(3)地方依恋的组成部分显著影响忠诚度,(4)地点依恋在感知真实性和忠诚度之间起中介作用。这项研究提供了对感知真实性和地点依恋之间动态的精细理解,并为遗产管理和营销提供了实际意义。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Hospitality & Tourism Research (JHTR) is an international scholarly research journal that publishes high-quality, refereed articles that advance the knowledge base of the hospitality and tourism field. JHTR focuses on original research, both conceptual and empirical, that clearly contributes to the theoretical development of our field. The word contribution is key. Simple applications of theories from other disciplines to a hospitality or tourism context are not encouraged unless the authors clearly state why this context significantly advances theory or knowledge. JHTR encourages research based on a variety of methods, qualitative and quantitative.
