“…We used traditional procedures to identify common factors. After verifying the statistical significance of the data with KMO (with value 0.89) and Bartlett's test of sphericity (2,319,792), the factors were drawn from the correlation matrix using principal components analysis. The criteria for determining the number of factors are an eigenvalue greater than 1 and scree plots.…”

Events and Tourism Development within a Local Community: The Case of Winchester (UK)

et al. 2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Tourism as an industry has many kinds of impacts on destinations and their communities. The presence of tourism could create the conditions for an economic development but in the same way produce negative effect (crowding out) and externalities (the Janus-face character). Between the different actors inside the tourist destination, there are the local community which could endure the pressure of tourism. In some cases, this pressure reduces the wellbeing of the residents. The present research paper focuses on how activities like events and tourism impact on community well-being. Winchester (England), a Special Interest Tourism and Event (SITE), is used as a case study. The data are collected using an on-line interview and they are elaborated using multivariate techniques and ordinal regression analysis. The results of the study reveal a close relation between the level of happiness of the local residents and their perception of the tourism industry and event development. Local residents in Winchester are perceiving the tourism industry and events rather positively as they believe it supports their culture and the local economy and job in particular. Our first overall conclusion is that there is a relationship between the residents’ happiness and tourism/event perception. Moreover, our findings support what claimed by several scholars that tourism specialisation improves the residents quality of life (QOL). The present study has not shown the direction of the influence but according to previous research it is the level of happiness of the local residents that determines their perception of the tourism industry and event development and not the other way around. The second finding of the study reveals that SITE destinations have a high potential in terms of contributing to the local residents’ happiness and subsequently visitors. Our third and final conclusion is that, when the benefits of tourism and events are higher than the cost, local residents and are likely to be supportive of the activity.

“…This is in line with the mainstream literature (Chaisumpunsakul and Pholphirul, 2018; Chasapopoulos et al, 2014; Kulendran and Wilson, 2000; Taner et al, 2011). Monetary costs are also a significant determinant of tourism travel across OECD countries: (i) countries that share a common currency tend to have greater tourism flows (a result similar to the one obtained by Culiuc, 2014), and (ii) an appreciation of the currency of the destination country vis-à-vis that of the origin country reduces tourism flows (echoing the conclusions of Culiuc, 2014; Khoshnevis Yazdi and Khanalizadeh, 2017). Sharing the same language seems to facilitate bilateral tourist flows as it would reduce “intangible” traveling costs (Culiuc, 2014; Khadaroo and Seetanah, 2008).…”

Terrorism and inbound tourism: Does immigration have a moderating effect?

This article investigates the impact of terrorism on bilateral tourism flows within the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development countries. It also examines the moderation effect of immigration in the destination country on the terrorism–tourism relationship. The results obtained from the estimated gravity models show that after reaching a certain threshold, terrorism negatively impacts tourist arrivals. This relation seems to be moderated by the share of immigrants in the country of destination: when the share of immigrants in a country is relatively high, the positive impact of immigration on tourist arrivals would counterbalance the adverse impact of terrorism on tourist arrivals.

“…The levelling benefits of tourism and traffic resources comprise both the investment and income of tourism projects. Similar to the socioeconomic benefits, the tourism and traffic resource levelling benefits also function as a positive index in the objective optimization model of the highway network in terms of previous study results [41], of which we utilize the following equation:…”

Sustainability and Resource Equilibrium Evaluation of a Tourism Traffic Network Based on a Tourism Traffic Matching Curve

The accompanying increased traffic due to the rapid development of tourism at present calls for the better sustainability and equilibrium of tourism and traffic resources in the future. In recent decades, considerable attention has been paid to highway network planning, while studies focusing on sustainable tourism traffic networks, especially evaluation methods of limited tourism and traffic resources, have proven less successful. Through conceptual transfer, we proposed the tourism traffic matching curve, which not only simplifies the method of sustainability and equilibrium evaluation, but also ensures that the results are more direct and effective. In the upper layer, we analyzed the main factors of tourism traffic network development, which contributed to a comprehensive benefit-oriented multi-objective model of tourism traffic network in MATLAB. In this model, the long-neglected tourism economy radiation effect was considered, and a genetic algorithm was introduced in the solution. In the lower layer, the characteristics of the tourism traffic matching curve and the two crucial equilibrium indexes, the Tourism Traffic Uniformity Coefficient (TLCU) and Curvature Coefficient (TLCC), were provided. With instances from Guangdong Province, the proposed system was proven to be more efficient and concise than other systems, which identified the need for future research on establishing effective criteria and a theoretical analysis method for dynamic adjustment.
