Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explain eco-tourists' behavioral intention based on exploring Extended Theory of Planned Behavior and Sustainable Intelligence as moderating variable. To do so, the survey was conducted on eco-tourists from Dongbaek-Dongsan wetland, Jeju-do between March. 12th and 30th, 2023. As a result, eco-tourists aged 50 years old and over, and from Jeju-do with their family members have more possibilities to visit Dongbaek-Dongsan wetland. Also, this study analyzed that independent variables including subjective norm, epistemic value, emotional value and attitude showed significant effects on behavioral intention. Further, sustainable intelligence as the moderating variable showed its moderation effects between independent variables including attitude and subjective norm, and behavioral intention as dependent variable.

본 연구는 확장된 계획행동이론과 조절변수인 지속가능지능을 바탕으로 생태관광객의 행동의도를 파악하고자 실시하였다. 이를 위해 2023년 3월 12일부터 3월 30일까지 제주 동백동산 습지를 방문하는 생태관광객을 연구 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하여 총 312부를 실증 분석에 적용하였다. 연구 결과 50대 이상의 연령과 제주도에 거주하는 가족 중심의 생태관광객의 방문 비율이 높은 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 계획행동의 하위변수인 태도와 주관적 규범, 지각된 가치의 하위변수인 인식적 가치와 감정적 가치가 생태관광객의 행동의도에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 아울러 지속가능지능은 독립변수인 태도 및 주관적 규범과 종속변수인 행동의도 간에 조절효과를 미치는 것으로 확인되었다.
