“…Generally, adjustment behaviors can be divided into five categories [26][27][28]: cognitive adjustment (where tourists reduce psychological stress by adjusting their expectations), spatial adjustment (tourists choose to shift their areas of activity), activity adjustment (tourists change their activity types), temporal adjustment (tourists choose to avoid peak periods and choose other times to travel), and no adjustment (tourists leave the destination or perceive no obvious crowding). The choice of adjustment behavior is influenced by a variety of factors but perhaps most prominently by the type of activity [21,29]. Tourists engaging in different types of activities have different tourism behaviors; hence, their perceptions of crowding and choices of adjustment behaviors might be different [30].…”

“…Therefore, after feeling crowded, tourists need mechanisms of adjustment to adapt to their discomfort and to thus restore their state of mind. Studies on the mechanisms of adjustment for perceived crowding have focused on the effects of mechanisms of adjustment on tourist satisfaction and loyalty [21], while few have highlighted the factors involved in the mechanisms of adjustment, often concentrating solely on factors such as social or economic characteristics. Manning [22] found that gender, age, income, and marriage all had an effect on mechanisms of adjustment, and Herberlin [23] noted that tourists who went rafting on the Colorado River could maintain a high level of satisfaction through mental adjustment when they perceived crowding.…”

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.

Does Park Size Affect Green Gentrification? Insights from Chongqing, China

International studies have shown that urban parks lead to rising residential prices and, consequently, gentrification effects. However, the studies on whether the size of the park drives gentrification are controversial. In this article, using the insight from Chongqing China, a hedonic price model is used to evaluate the influence of park size on residential prices, a geographically weighted regression model is employed to explore the spatial differentiation characteristics of park premiums, and a questionnaire survey is conducted to study residential socio-economic characteristics and attitudes toward green gentrification. We find that park premium is a strong predictor of gentrification, while park size is not. Most medium and large parks do not lead to green gentrification. The parks with high premiums that will lead to green gentrification are a small percentage of parks, only about 20% in Chongqing, China. Green gentrification in China is not due to the crowding out of low-income by middle- and high-income residents, but mainly due to the filtering of the real estate market. These findings provide new explanations for the relationship between parks and gentrification.

Historical gardens, as important components of urban green spaces, have ecological, social, and significant historical heritage value. Urban residents develop close connections with nature, culture, and historical elements through landscape perception behavior in their daily activities, leading to different preferences and value judgments. However, it is still necessary to conduct in-depth research to explore whether there are differences in cultural perception and preferences between historical gardens and newly built parks during residents’ daily visits. To fill these gaps, this research utilized user-generated contents and natural language processing method, focuses on a sample of 40 historical gardens and newly built parks in Suzhou, China, to address the following three research questions: (1) Which elements do park visitors perceive more strongly in historical gardens and new parks?(2) Is there a correlation between the cultural perception preferences and the attributes of the gardens and parks?(3) What are the sentimental preferences of visitors between historical gardens and new parks? The research findings reveal that cultural and aesthetic perception is more pronounced in historical gardens compared to newly built parks, while the latter place greater emphasis on the perception of natural features. Additionally, attribute features of parks, such as area, perimeter, and public transportation facilities, equally impact visitors’ landscape perception. This study distinguished the cultural perception and preference characteristics of urban residents in historical gardens and new parks, providing urban managers and urban green space planning and design professionals with more experience in areas such as the preservation and renovation of urban historical landscapes.
