“…Based on the results, the findings are summarized as follows: (1) the variables TDI, TE, PQ, and PV are the important antecedents of emotional reflections, and they all significantly influence TERB; TDI and TE negatively and indirectly influence TERB; PQ and PV positively and indirectly influence TERB. (2) In the relationship between TS and TERB, TS indirectly affects TERB through TL and TC, and stronger TS is associated with stronger TERB toward the destination. (3) In the relationship between TL and TERB, higher TL better enhances TERB.…”

“…Nonetheless, tourists can also be an untapped resource for solving tourism environment problems by conducting tourism environmentally responsible behavior (TERB) [1]. Environmentally responsible behavior (ERB) refers to advocating sustainable development or reducing the use of natural resources [2] or undertaking some behavior willingly to minimize the negative impact on environment [3], including persuading others' to forego environmentally unfriendly behaviors, recycle, and reuse waste. Therefore, exploring the influencing factors of TERB is an important issue in the field of tourism sustainable development.…”

Abstract:With the advent of mass tourism, tourism-related environmental problems are often reported in the news media. Tourists' environmentally responsible behaviors (TERB) are critical for solving tourism environmental problems. This study argues that college students are a critical source of collective impact for tourism sustainability, and examines chained relationships that might determine college student TERB. Five hundred and twenty-five (525) college tourists were surveyed. Structural equation modeling was used to determine the relationships among the variables and the mediating effects. Results confirmed our proposed relationships of chained influences from tourism destination image (as key information) to tourist expectation (as cognition), to perceived quality and value (as experiences), to tourist satisfaction, loyalty, and complaints (as emotional reflection), and finally to TERB. Such results shed light on TERB education and construction, as well as on the collective impact for sustainable tourism.

“…Tourists who adopt an environmentally responsible behaviour are aimed at supporting a more sustainable use of natural resources, aim at mitigating negative environmental impacts of their home and tourism activities, and contribute to environmental preservation efforts [17,45]. Visitors' sustainable behaviour is defined as their intentions to perform or not perform a specific behaviour directed to preserve the environment [47].…”

Visitors’ Experience, Place Attachment and Sustainable Behaviour at Cultural Heritage Sites: A Conceptual Framework

Sustainable tourism research has attracted wide interest from scholars and practitioners. While several heritage sites are mandated to provide optimum visitor satisfaction with increasing competition in the market, managers of heritage sites face growing challenges in striking a balance between consumption and conservation. This calls for promoting more sustainable behaviours among consumers of heritage. This study proposes a conceptualization of sustainable behaviour for heritage consumers. Using the attitude-behaviour relationship underpinned by the Theory of Reasoned Action, it develops and proposes a conceptual framework that integrates visitors' heritage experiences, their attachment to heritage sites, and their general and site-specific sustainable heritage behaviour and presents their interrelationships as proposed hypotheses. Theoretical contributions and practical implications for heritage site managers are discussed.

“…Pro-environmental behaviour is defined as an action by an individual or group that promotes or results in the sustainable use of natural resources (Sivek & Hungerford, 1989/1990. Although existing research suggests place attachment is a potentially useful concept to promote pro-environmental behaviours, findings on the relationships between the two constructs are contradictory and far from conclusive (Scannell & Gifford, 2010b).…”
