“…We took Dafu Mountain Forest Park as a case study in order to investigate the relationship between perceived crowding, adjustment mechanisms, and tourist satisfaction in urban forest parks. Crowding, emotions, satisfaction, and adjustment behavior are concepts that have been used in tourism research [52][53][54]. The mechanism of the influence of crowding on tourist satisfaction is also an important, well-studied topic in this field [55,56].…”

Forest parks are important for ecological conservation, recreation, and the health and well-being of the people who use them. However, forest parks located in urban areas often face the problem of crowding. To better understand perceived crowding in urban forest parks and to improve tourists’ recreation experiences and satisfaction, we constructed a conceptual model of the relationships between perceived crowding, emotion, and satisfaction with mechanisms of adjustment based on survey data from Dafu Mountain Forest Park in China. The results indicate that, in urban forest parks, perceived crowding significantly and negatively affects tourists’ satisfaction, but there is no significant difference in satisfaction between different activity types. Both positive and negative emotions have partially mediating effects on the relationship between perceived crowding and satisfaction. Crucially, our modeled mechanisms of adjustment play a moderating role in the effect of crowding on tourist satisfaction, and the choice of adjustment behaviors varies according to the activity type. This work enriches the research related to perceived crowding, mechanisms of adjustment, and satisfaction in tourist destinations and provides a theoretical basis for the future management of urban forest parks.

Rural tourism serves as a pivotal catalyst for rural revitalization, with its trajectory influenced by diverse factors within tourist destinations. This study aims to refine the analysis of tourists’ engagement in rural tourism dimensions by leveraging perceived value theory. Focusing on the rural tourism unit of Zhengzhou, this paper employs a four-dimensional approach encompassing service perception, ecological perception, product perception, and tourists’ participation. Utilizing a Likert five-level scale questionnaire distributed in June to July 2023 and employing structural equation modelling (SEM), the study examines the interplay between tourists’ perceptions and their contribution to rural tourism participation. Findings underscore the importance of integrating perceived value theory into rural tourism analysis, enhancing understanding of key influencing factors. Notably, tourists exhibit a heightened perception of environmental quality, with service perception significantly influencing participation. Conversely, while a positive correlation exists between product and ecological perceptions, its impact on participation is comparatively weaker. These insights carry practical implications for enhancing rural tourism services and fostering greater tourist participation, thus bolstering rural revitalization efforts. This study addresses a gap in prior research by developing and validating a comprehensive model that explores the perception-participation dynamics in rural tourism contexts.
