TL;DR: In this article, a two-step process (i.e., establishing a measurement model and structural path model) was used to predict levels of the Tourism Impact Attitude Scale (TIAS) and its factors.

TL;DR: In this article, a series of focus groups with residents of a coastal South Carolina county was conducted to ascertain residents' feelings about tourists and commonalities with tourists (i.e., shared beliefs, shared behavior, and interaction).

TL;DR: In this article, the authors formulate and validate scales corresponding to the constructs in Durkheim's theoretical framework of emotional solidarity and include them in an onsite self-administered survey instrument, with 455 heads of household completing the instrument in a coastal South Carolina county.

TL;DR: In this paper, a structural equation model is used to test how perceived personal benefits and general economic conditions shape perceptions of tourism, and in turn how these perceptions determine pro-tourism behaviour.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the internal attributes that lead tourists to adopt three dimensions of sustainable behavior drawing on the value-belief-norm model and found that pro-sustainable behavior is reflected in three dimensions related to behaviors that reduce environmental impacts, the consumption of local goods and services, and a willingness to sacrifice time and money to choose sustainable options.
