The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship among the components of brand equity and to examine the effects of these components on the overall customer-based brand equity from the perspective of the Generation Z. This study is applied in the case of Borobudur World Heritage Destination, which is in Indonesia. A survey questionnaire has been collected through purposive sampling from 167 Generation Z who have visited Borobudur World Heritage Destination. The research hypotheses were supported by the empirical test using a Structural Equation Model with AMOS. The result concludes that destination brand awareness has significant, positive effects on destination brand image and perception of destination quality; destination brand image has positive influences on perception of destination quality and destination brand loyalty; perception of destination quality has significant, positive impacts on destination brand loyalty. Except for destination brand image and destination brand awareness, the perception of destination quality and destination brand loyalty have positive and direct impacts on overall destination brand equity. In sum, overall customer-based brand equity of a world heritage destination in the context of a developing economy is directly influenced by only two components of brand equity, namely, the perception of destination quality and destination brand loyalty.

This present research seeks to explore the empirical evidence about the relation between quality of destination and Islamic attribute of destination on tourist satisfaction. This research was conducted at the tourism sector in West Java, Indonesia. The participants were Muslim foreign tourists who were traveling to West Java, Indonesia. The total number of participants in the research was 200. Data collection was carried out using a questionnaire. Hypotheses were tested using structural equation modeling methods with AMOS version 23. The exogenous variables in this research consisted of the quality of the destination and Islamic attribute of destination. Tourist satisfaction was an endogenous variable in this research. We used a quantitative approach and structural equation modeling to examine the research hypotheses. The results showed that there was a positive and significant effect of the quality of destination on the tourist satisfaction, and the quality of destination positively affected Islamic attribute of destination, but Islamic attribute of destination had no significant effect on tourist satisfaction. We also found that Islamic attribute of destination did not mediate the relation between quality of destination and tourist satisfaction. We provided recommendations to strengthen or improve the quality of destination in order to increase tourist satisfaction.

온라인에서 생성되는 관광지 관련 정보들을 활용한 관광지 이미지 분석은 관광소비자들의 관광목적지에 대한 인식을 설명할 수 있는 유의미한 정보를 도출할 수 있으며, 관광소비자들의 특정 관광지에 대한 이미지를 더욱 심층적으로 이해할 수 있다. 본 연구는 온라인 빅데이터를 활용한 대구의 관광지 이미지 실례연구를 실시하여 대구의 관광지 이미지를 분석하고 시사점을 도출하고자 하였다. 국내 포털 사이트를 대상으로 텍스트 마이닝과 사회연결망 분석을 실시하여, 대구의 관광지 이미지를 형성하는 관광지 이미지 요소들을 추출하고 영향 정도를 분석하였다. 연구 결과에 따르면 관광객 인프라시설과 문화와 예술, 역사 등의 관광지 이미지 형성 요소들이 대구의 관광지 이미지를 형성하는 주요한 요소들로 파악되었으며, 특히, '대구중구골목투어'가 전체적인 대구의 관광지 이미지 형성에 핵심적인 역할을 하는 것으로 파악되었다.

최근 들어 영상과 음악을 중심으로 한 대중문화 콘텐츠와 관련이 있는 관광지가 관심을 끌고 있다. 지방자치단체에서는 드라마나 영화 촬영을 위한 세트장 건립을 활발하게 추진하고 있고, 관광자들은 대중문화 콘텐츠를 통한 관광지에 대한 관심을 직접 방문을 통해 체험하고자 한다. 관광지는 관광자들의 체험과 관광지가 제공하는 체험 요소들이 모여 형성된 공동의 의미체계이다. 본 논문에서는 관광 스토리텔링에 관한 개념화를 시도함과 동시에 대중문화 콘텐츠를 활용한 관광지 스토리텔링 활성화 방안을 모색하고자 한다.

This study is conducted to fill the research gap in proposing and testing the relationship between "Attitudes about the overall image of the destination", "Subjective norms" and "Perceived behavioral control". Simultaneously, we examine the relationship between these variables and tourists' "intent to choose a destination.". While most previous studies only deal with the relationship between destination image and intended behavior of tourists, this study uses the theory of planned behavior (Ajzen, 1991) to explain the intended behavior of tourists. In addition, the Theory of Destination Image (Echtner & Ritchie, 1991) is used to explain the factor "attitudes about the overall image of the destination", contribute to supplementing and perfecting the Theory of Planned Behavior. This study uses a Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to analyze a sample of 993 observations, the subjects of which are international tourists to Vietnam, to test the relationship between second-order constructs. The test results show that "Subjective norms" and "Perceived behavioral control" have an impact on "Attitudes about the overall image of the destination". Moreover, all these three factors have an impact on "Intent to choose destination", in which the factor "Perceived behavioral control" has the greatest impact on "intention to choose destination".

This research article investigates the way eWOM in social media influences the formation of destination image through development of trust and satisfaction for the potential tourist. The research involved administering an 18-point questionnaire taking online reviews, tourist involvement, and eWOM, destination image components of trust and satisfaction as variables. Data was collected from 554 individuals forming a cross-section of social media users and analyzed using multi-variate techniques (Reliability, CFA, and SEM). Results indicate a positive and significant relationship between all except online review and destination trust and satisfaction. Indirect and direct effects indicate that eWOM fully mediates the relationship between destination satisfaction and involvement and partially mediates the relationship between destination trust and involvement. In the case of online reviews, eWOM acts as a full mediator between destination trust and destination satisfaction for the future traveler using social media. The study proposes that components of image vary depending upon the degree of involvement, volume online reviews and eWOM generated also termed as 'virality' and these in turn influence the intention to revisit or recommend a destination. The study highlights its utility for National Tourist Organizations (NTOs) and online travel intermediaries to enhance destination marketing efforts.

세계화와 더불어 지역화가 가속화되면서 한국의 지방자치단체들은 지역진흥을 위해 다양한 정책 아이디어를 내놓고 있으며, 중앙정부에서도 국토의 균형적 발전을 위해 주민이 주체가 되는 지역만들기 사업의 지원에 많은 공을 들이고 있다. 지역만들기 사업은 중앙의 여러 부처에서 다각도로 진행되고 있는데, 사업 내용의 상당수가 관광콘텐츠를 활용한 지역만들기에 집중되어 있다. 이는 활발한 인적, 물적 교류를 유발하는 관광의 매력에 관심을 두었기 때문으로 해석된다. 본 논문에서는 일본의 관광지 만들기 사업의 사례연구를 통해 매력적인 관광지가 보유한 콘텐츠 특성을 분석함으로써 향후 한국의 관광지 만들기 사업에 정책적 시사점을 제공하고자 한다.

관광목적지의 브랜드자산은 목적지의 경쟁력과 관련된 사항으로 관광목적지의 선택에 중요한 역할을 수행한다. 그러나 관광목적지의 브랜드자산에 대한 연구는 그 중요성에도 불구하고 한정적으로 진행되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 관련 연구의 기초를 마련하기 위해 관광목적지 브랜드자산의 개념 정립과 구성요인의 도출에 중심을 두고 연구를 진행하였다. 연구결과 관광목적지 브랜드자산은 브랜드 인지도, 지각된 품질, 브랜드 연상 이미지, 브랜드 충성도와 같은 4가지 요소로 구성되며, 브랜드 충성도는 태도적인 요소를 포함하는 요소로 다른 브랜드 요소들로부터 영향을 받는 것으로 나타나 브랜드자산 간의 효과 위계를 검증할 수 있었다.

The focus of this research was on Bali, Indonesia as an international tourist destination. The survey strategy involved self-administered questionnaires distributed to collect data and information supporting this research. The sampling method was non-probability convenience purposive sampling, which means that only those respondents who had visited Bali as a destination for more than two times for their holiday by the time the research was conducted were eligible to fill in the questionnaires. There were 300 questionnaires distributed, only 254 of which were valid. Interview was also conducted for data collection in this research. The structural equation modelling approach was used to analyze the data obtained from respondents, who had visited Bali at least two times. The outcomes of this research reveal a positive influence of push and pull motivational factors on tourist satisfaction. Moreover, a positive, significant correlation between satisfaction and destination loyalty can be seen in this research. With the aim to sustain and enhance destination competitiveness, the results of this research will be beneficial for stakeholders of Bali as a destination. This study helps stakeholders identify push and pull motivational factors in order to better prepare marketing strategies and utilize indicators of push and pull motivation that affect tourists' experience during their stay.
