Título: | A structural equation model of tourism activities, social interaction and the impact of tourism on youth tourists' QOL | Autor: | Eusébio, Celeste Carneiro, Maria João Caldeira, Ana Maria |
Palavras-chave: | tourism activities; social interaction; quality of life; QOL; tourism impacts; youth tourism market; partial least squares structural equation modelling; PLS-SEM | Data: | 2016 | Editora: | Inderscience | Título da revista, periódico, livro ou evento: | International Journal of Tourism Policy | Volume: | 6 | Número: | 2 | Resumo: | The current study aims to develop a model in the scope of youth tourism that illustrates structural relationships among the following constructs: 1) frequency of participation in several tourism activities; 2) frequency of social interaction with residents; 3) perception of tourism impacts on several domains of quality of life (QOL); 4) perception of tourism impacts on overall QOL. To achieve this objective, a survey was carried out with university students and 412 completed questionnaires were obtained. The model was tested with partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM). Results show a strong positive impact of tourism activities on social interaction and a positive impact of both tourism activities and social interaction on all domains of QOL – physical health, social relationships, psychological features and environmental conditions. The paper ends with recommendations for improving the impact of tourism on youth visitors’ QOL. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/88991 | ISSN: | 1750-4090 1750-4104 |
