A total of 424 questionnaires were returned, with 35 removed due to errors. Finally, 389 questionnaires respondents were used via accidental sampling method through the distribution of questionnaires to foreign tourists at Soekarno Hatta International Airport.

본 연구는 최근 급속한 관광서비스시스템이 변화하여 관광객이 겪는 시간 빈곤감이 관광의 질에 미치는 영향을 탐색적으로 고찰하였다. 최근 '시간 빈곤감(time poverty)'에 우울하다는 호소가 많다. 예를 들면 시간 빈곤의 느낌이 삶의 만족감, 긍정성, 그리고 마음 건강에 부정적 영향을 준다는 연구결과가 있다. 더불어 창의성, 업무 능력, 그리고 인간관계의 질마저 떨어뜨린다는 결과도 있다. 이러한 관점에서 본 연구는 관광서비스시스템 변화에 따른 시간 빈곤감이 관광객의 만족도를 떨어뜨려 관광의 질(Quality)에까지 영향을 미치는 것에 집중하여 문헌 고찰을 하였다. 그 결과, 관광객의 소득수준에 따른 시간 빈곤감 및 이와 관련한 관광의 질 향상 정책을 시행하기 위해서는 소득계층별로 나누어 정부정책과 사업을 세밀하게 기획하고 고려할 필요가 있음을 확인하였다. 이를 통해 정부가 추진하는 근로자의 휴가지원정책에 다양한 시사점을 제공하였다.
