Examining Japanese tourists' US-bound travel constraints.
TLDR
In this paper, the authors focused on Japanese tourists' US-related travel constraints and revealed that Japanese tourists with different socio-demographic characteristics faced diverse US-bound travel constraints, including personal preferences, psychological concerns, cost concerns, and accessibility issues.Abstract:
Most studies on travel/leisure constraints to date were conducted in Western countries under a Western-centric research paradigm. It is not clear whether people from non-Western countries, such as Japan, face different outbound travel constraints. It is also not clear whether constraints research in a non-Western context will generate results that are consistent with what has been documented in the literature. This study focused on Japanese travellers' US-related travel constraints. The data were drawn from an online panel survey on 1200 recent and potential Japanese outbound travellers. Four categories of constraints emerged in this study: personal preferences, psychological concerns, cost concerns, and accessibility issues. In addition, this study revealed that Japanese tourists with different socio-demographic characteristics faced diverse US-bound travel constraints.read more

TL;DR: A review of the comparative database from across the behavioral sciences suggests both that there is substantial variability in experimental results across populations and that WEIRD subjects are particularly unusual compared with the rest of the species – frequent outliers.

A hierarchical model of leisure constraints
TL;DR: In this article, the authors modify a conceptualization of leisure constraints offered by Crawford and Godbey (1987) and recast it as a single integrated model in which leisure participants are viewed as having negotiated a sequential, hierarchical series of constraints levels.

Reconceptualizing barriers to family leisure
TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider barriers to be of three types: (1) intrapersonal barriers, wherein the primary relationship of importance is between preferences and barriers; (2) interpersonal barriers, which result from either the non-correspondence of individuals' intrapERSONal barriers or from the behavioral patterning of interpersonal relations, thus indicating a relationship with both preferences and participation; and (3) structural...
