Abstract
The purpose of this study was to analyze the lifestyles of tourists visiting rural experience tourist destinations and the influential relations of the attributes to affect rural experience tourism. The research findings show that the lifestyles of tourists had significant impacts on their preference for rural experience programs(0.2502/3.0l2). Second, their lifestyles had also significant impacts on the need for rural experience tourist destinations(5.039/3.363). Third, their preference for rural experience programs had significant influences on their intentions for revisits(0.386/3.l60). Fourth, their preference for rural experience programs had significant influences on their intentions for word of mouth(1.448/8.073). Fifth, their need for rural experience tourist destinations had significant impacts on their intentions for revisits(1.940/5.594). And finally, their need for rural experience tourist destinations had no significant influences on their intentions for word of mouth(-1.0611-1.421). According to the analysis results of the regression coefficient of the measuring model, enjoying leisure(1.130/6.775) and pursuing health(1.110/9.001) were large influential factors in lifestyle; pursuing learning(1.47317.946) was the biggest influential factor in preference for rural experience programs; and a natural environment(1.220/8.990) was the biggest influential factor in the need for rural experience tourist destinations.
