“…These relate to more and better leisure facilities and cultural exchanges (Liu and Var 1986). However, a negative effect may also be detected in terms of anncrease in crime, prostitution, alcohol and drugs (Ap 1992). Methodologically, these studies employ descriptive instruments whereas inference has rarely been adopted.…”

Terms of use: Documents in Manuela Pulina University of Sassari and CRENoSAbstract This paper investigates residents' preferences towards cruise tourism investment in their home port. The research uses data collected during the peak cruise season in 2011 at Messina, a port of call in Sicily, Italy. A generalized ordered logit analysis is run to analyse what factors influence the residents' preferences towards investment in cruise tourism. Positive and negative externalities produced by this economic activity, as well as socio-demographic and economic determinants are taken into account. Overall, the resource investment choice of residents in Messina was dependent upon: their income dependency on the cruise activity, their own personal cruise experience, family size, the expected increase in welfare (i.e. increase in public and private investment), whether they are affected by urban and rural gentrification and the value placed on community life style and heritage conservation. Nevertheless, residents would tend to decrease investments in cruise activity if they are female, retired or perceive the environment to be deteriorating. Implications for policy makers are drawn from the empirical findings.Paper submitted to the special issue Tourism Externalities JEL C25; D62; L83 Keywords Cruise port of call; positive and negative externalities; residents' support; generalized ordered logit

“…The existing research has shown that a key shortcoming in the tourism development process is the lack of involvement of the residents in the tourism planning and development stages. However, the research foci on the residents' perceptions of tourism development and tourism impacts, in both the developing and the developed context, have gained the attention of a number of scholars (Brougham & Butler, 1981;Dieke, 1989;Ap, 1992;Jurowski et al, 1997;Chen, 2000;Chen & Hsu, 2002;Lui, 2003;Dyer et al, 2007;Nunkoo & Gursoy, 2012;Mutanga et al, 2015;Tichaawa & Mhlanga, 2015;Moyo, 2016;Makoni & Tichaawa, 2017), who, in their studies, suggest that, as the residents are an integral part of tourism development, their perceptions can be of great value in developing the relevant developmental strategies. Surprisingly, though, scant analysis exists of how sociodemographic characteristics influence such perceptions of tourism development (Brougham & Butler, 1981;Allen et al, 1993;Lindberg & Johnson, 1997;Andereck et al, 2007).…”

This study sought to determine the sociodemographic influences on residents' perceptions of tourism development in Zimbabwe. The study emanates from a concern over the lack of such a research angle in the context of subSaharan African tourism research. Adopting an explorative quantitative design, a structured survey was used to generate 246 valid responses from the residents in Harare. The results obtained showed that there were both similarities and differences in the perceptions of residents with different sociodemographic characteristics. The study brought to light that sociodemographic characteristics are an important variable in determining the influences of residents' perceptions of tourism development. This article offers developing destinations augmented insight into the influence of demographic characteristics on residents' perceptions of tourism development, as well as discernments respecting tourism planning, policy formulation, strategy implementation, and tourism marketing in transforming communities and enhancing destination's image.

“…Además se encuentra ampliamente reconocido que los gestores deben tener en cuenta los puntos de vista de los residentes, si se desea la sostenibilidad del turismo (Allen, Long, Perdue y Kieselbach, 1988;Ap y Crompton, 1998;Belisle y Hoy, 1980;Maddox, 1985), y a lo largo de las últimas décadas se han realizado muchos estudios analizando las actitudes hacia el turismo (Akis, Peristianis y Warner, 1996;Allen, Hafer, Long y Perdue, 1993;Allen, Long, Perdue y Kieselbach, 1988;Ap, 1992;Belisle y Hoy, 1980;Besculides, Lee y McCormick, 2002;Faulkner y Tideswell, 1997;Fredline y Faulkner, 2000;Gursoy y Kendall, 2006;Gursoy y Rutherford, 2004;Haralambopoulos y Pizam, 1996;Jurowski y Gursoy, 2004;Jurowski, Uysal y Williams, 1997;Kim y Petrick, 2005;Lindberg y Johnson, 1997;Lindberg, Dellaert y Rassing, 1999;Liu y Var, 1986;Mason y Cheyne, 2000;Teye, Sirakaya y Sönmez, 2002;Um y Crompton, 1987;Weaver y Lawton, 2001;Williams y Lawson, 2001).…”

Resumen: Los tipos y formas de turismo y, sobre todo, la percepción y actitud de los turistas influyen en cómo evolucionan las actitudes de los residentes. Pero la inmensa mayoría de los estudios de actitudes de los residentes analizan el sector turístico en su conjunto, siendo pocos los casos que se centran en algún tipo concreto de oferta. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar si hay productos turísticos con peor o mejor valoración. La principal diferencia entre las dos encuestas utilizadas es que en 2011 se esperan efectos derivados de la crisis económica. Los residentes consideran que hay un conjunto de productos muy aceptables (turismo rural y de naturaleza, turismo náutico, turismo deportivo, turismo cultural, congresos y ferias, turismo de sol y playa, etc.), productos moderadamente aceptables (casas en alquiler y segundas residencias) y productos problemáticos (golf, clubbers y all inclusive). Al segmentar vemos que la mayoría posee valoraciones muy positivas de las ofertas planteadas (52,4%). Esta mayoría puede dividirse entre los partidarios del All inclusive (17%) y sus detractores (35,4%). Existe un grupo con posturas partidarias pero más moderadas y que se oponen al All inclusive, los campos de golf y el turismo clubber (28%).Palabras Clave: Ibiza; actitudes; residentes; producto turístico; comparación.
