“…Research suggests that when tourists perceive marketing efforts as sustainably focused, it can significantly boost their awareness and appreciation of sustainability initiatives. This heightened awareness, in turn, positively influences their attitudes towards agritourism destinations [12]. This alignment of sustainable marketing with tourists' values and expectations is crucial in fostering a positive attitude towards agritourism, which is a significant predictor of the intention to visit such destinations [13].…”

Agritourism is a key component of sustainable tourism, focusing on minimizing environmental impacts. This study evaluates how technological knowledge influences tourist behavior and intentions within agritourism, employing the Theory of Planned Behavior for a structured quantitative analysis. Data from 348 visitors to orchards, farms, and aquaculture sites in agritourism settings were analyzed using partial least squares structural equation modeling. Results show a significant impact of perceived environmental factors on attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and perceptions of sustainable marketing. Importantly, technological knowledge plays a vital moderating role in linking sustainable marketing perceptions to the intention to engage in agritourism. This research sheds light on the dynamic relationship between sustainable marketing, technological knowledge, and tourist behavior in agritourism, offering insights for businesses and policymakers to foster sustainable practices and enhance the appeal of agritourism experiences.

“…In addition, the main objective was to examine whether ST has an impact on the satisfaction of respondents, which this research confirmed. The most important factors in tourism evolution in protected areas are those related to the natural and social elements of the destination and the economic, ecological, and cultural aspects of tourism [61][62][63]. The completion of destination construction, the impact of the natural world and space on the rise in tourism, the contribution by locals to ST, and the implementation of regulatory safeguards have all received special attention.…”

The Ramsar Site Labudovo Okno (LO) is located in Vojvodina, on the left bank of the Danube. It covers an area of 3733 ha. This wet habitat is valuable for different ecosystems, among which the most important are those inhabited by rare bird species. The main natural resources are wetlands, created by the Danube in this shallow part of its flow. Thirty-seven sustainable tourism (ST) indicators were used to assess the current status and future prospects of tourist growth in the LO. For this study, a total of 625 respondents (255 tourists and 370 residents) were asked through a questionnaire to evaluate the current tourism and the impact on their satisfaction. Additionally, they showed that some resources are either misused or not used sufficiently, which has a detrimental effect on the LO. Part of the research was to determine how satisfied respondents were with ST. Although tourism in LO still has no important mass features, the respondents’ satisfaction with sustainable LO tourism is present to a significant extent. This is vital for ST and the creation of local tourism strategies, because the need for greater valorization of natural and social values, as well as the establishment of the roles of all subjects of tourism development, has been noticed. Certainly, nature-based, ecotourism, scientific research, and nautical and bird-watching tourism must be the primary forms of tourist movements in the LO.

“…Specifically, first, the RCC enhanced the financial support for family tourism consumption by increasing employment opportunities, unblocking employment channels, and directly improving family income ( 76 , 77 ). Second, the RCC abandoned control measures such as social distancing, home restrictions, and hotel isolation to ensure the time and space required for family travel, which became an essential policy condition for developing the tourism industry after the epidemic ( 78 , 79 ). Finally, the RCC has stimulated residents’ pursuit of a better and more enjoyable life in the past 3 years.…”

ObjectiveCOVID-19 has negatively influenced industrial development, family consumption, and residents’ mental health. Unfortunately, it has not yet been studied whether this adverse situation can be alleviated after the relaxation of the COVID-19 control policy (RCC). Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the effect of the RCC on the resident’s mental health and the mediating effect of family tourism consumption.Methods By using the PSM and mediating effetc model to research the panel data of two periods (April 2021 and April 2023) for Shaanxi province, China.ResultsThe RCC negatively inhibited the mental health severity of residents, and the mental health severity decreased by 0.602. In particular, the RCC showed the most substantial negative effect on residents’ stress, followed by anxiety and depression. Meanwhile, it is found that the impact of the RCC on the mental health of residents is highly heterogeneous. The RCC indicates a linear significant effect on the mental health of residents under 60 years of age, while the results were found insignificant for residents above 60 years of age. Meanwhile, the RCC’s improvement effect on urban residents’ mental health is greater than that of rural residents. In addition, mechanism analysis showed that tourism consumption plays a mediating role in the influence of the RCC on the mental health of residents, and the mediating effect accounted for 24.58% of the total effect.ConclusionBased on the findings, the study proposes that government and policymakers should strengthen mental health intervention, improve access to mental health counseling, stimulate economic development, expand the employment of residents, and track the mutation of the novel coronavirus.
