Before COVID-19, tourist destinations have experienced problems with congestion of both famous tourist attractions and public transportation. Over-tourism is not an issue at this time, but it is likely to rekindle after the COVID-19 pandemic ends. One method of mitigating over-tourism is to estimate tourist behavior using a tourist transition model and consequently adjust public transportation operations. In this study, we propose a construction method for a model of tourist transitions among tourist attractions based on tourist GPS trajectory data. We construct tourist transition models using actual trajectory data for tourists staying in the vicinity of Kyoto City. The results verify the model performance.

This study sought to verify the shopping values that tourists pursue by purchasing at travel destinations based on tourists' motivation and identify the effects of these values on the types of fashion items preferred by tourists. Furthermore, this study verified the tourist shopping behavior of three Asian countries-Korea, China, and Japan-from a cross-cultural perspective. To obtain a sample that represents tourist shoppers in each country, a survey was conducted on adult men and women in their 20s to 60s, and 986 subjects were collected: 300 Koreans, 385 Chinese, and 301 Japanese. Factor analysis, structural equation modeling, and multigroup SEM were performed on the collected data using SPSS Statistics and AMOS. Based on escaping-seeking theory, tourist intentions were divided into escaping and seeking motivations, and tourist shopping values were divided into functional, emotional, and social. The shopping items were divided into materials and experiential goods to understand the difference between the types preferred by tourists according to the perceived value. In addition, differences in tourist shopping behaviors according to the three nationalities were identified. The findings illustrate that the escaping motive affects emotional and social values, whereas the seeking motive affects all three. Moreover, it was confirmed that functional and emotional values affect preference for material and experiential goods, but social value only affects preference for material goods. For the cross-cultural study, differences in tourist shopping behavior according to nationality were identified.

스포츠가 활성화되면서 관련 산업이 빠르게 성장하는 추세이다. 더불어 관광분야에서도 스포츠와 관광이 동시에 이루어지는 상품이 등장하고 있다. 이에 따라 스포츠 관람객은 경기가 열리는 지역으로 이동하여 스포츠 활동에 참여함은 물론 관광 행위도 겸하고 있다. 스포츠 관광과 관련된 분야는 스포츠 관람이외 스포츠 활동에 참여, 스포츠 스타와 만남, 스포츠 박물관을 방문 등이 포함된다. 이 연구에서는 스포츠 관람에 참여한 관람객이 방문지역에서 이루어지고 있는 관광행동과 어떠한 관계가 있는가를 밝히기 위해서 시도되었다. 연구결과 스포츠 관람요인과 스포츠 팀 연상이 관광행동에 영향을 미치는 것으로 조사되었으나 그 영향은 제한적이었다. 그 원인은 무엇보다도 아직까지 스포츠 팀에서 스포츠 관람객의 욕구를 충분히 반영하지 못하고 있기 때문이다. 앞으로 이와 같은 문제점을 극복하고 스포츠 관광을 활성화하기 위해서 첫째, 스포츠 구단이 팀의 승리에 관심을 갖는 것 뿐 아니라 경기장 시설 혹은 스타선수 등과 관련된 마케팅 요인을 개발해야 한다. 둘째 스포츠와 지역관광을 묶는 연계프로그램의 개발해야 한다. 특히 방문지역의 숙박, 쇼핑, 유흥과 오락 등이 결합된 상품을 개발에 힘써야 한다. 스포츠 관람만을 위해 방문한 관람객일지라도 스포츠 스타를 만날 수 있거나 스포츠 관련시설이 전시해 있다면 다양한 스포츠 관광산업이 발전할 것으로 기대된다.

Theoretically and practically, it is very important to understand the way which tourist satisfaction is operated. The purpose of this study is to identify interaction among the determinants of tourist satisfacton process. A model of tourist satisfactioin process is developed based based on the confirmation / disconfirmation which is originated from consumer behavior literature. Three elements of the model include 'expectation','performance', and 'discrepancy between expectation and performance'. 340 questionnaires were delivered to find Everland visitors' perceptions of the determinants of tourist satisfaction. LISREL 8.14 was used to analyze the interaction among the determinants. The results are as follows : 1) 'expectation' has indirect effect on tourist satisfaction while 'performance' and 'discrepancy' has direct effect on the tourist satisfaction, 2) two precedent variables such as 'expectation' and 'performance' have indirect effect on the satisfaction through 'discrepancy',3) among the three determinants it is found that 'performance' is the most effective determinant of tourist satifaction, and 4) the model which was composed from the aspect of 'travel cost' was more effective to describing tourist satisfacton rather that from the aspect of 'service quality'.

The purposes of this study were to examine if a decision making by a tourist sequentially or hierarchically occurs in a tourism destination and to test determinants that have an effect on both a sequential and non-sequential decision making. An instrument for the study was developed with three steps. A total of 420 and 380 questionnaire were collected respectively for the first two round surveys. For the third step, a pilot test was conducted with 30 respondents. And the data analysis utilized SPSS 18.0. A logistic regression analysis with variables of tourism activity and demography was employed to investigate the factors that affect a sequence of decision-making process. As an important result, the higher the age of the tourist in a tourism destination, the more conspicuous the consumption expenditure is made through the sequential decision-making process. Additionally, it is unreasonable to apply the premises and assumptions in extant consumer behavior to tourist behavior. The process of decision making by tourists in tourism areas is driven by either non-sequential or non-hierarchical decision-making process. More discussion and implications were provided.

본 연구는 항공사를 이용하는 고객들이 코로나19라는 감염병 인식과 감염병에 대한 지각된 위험이 위험감소행동과 관광지 전환의도에 미치는 영향관계를 분석하고자 실시하였다. 2021년 6월 2일부터 24일까지 일년 이내에 항공기를 이용한 여행 경험이 있는 소비자를 대상으로, 온라인을 통해 설문을 실시하였다. SPSS 20.0과 AMOS 23.0 통계 프로그램을 활용하였고, 유효한 250부의 설문으로 분석을 실시하였다. 연구의 결과는 첫째, 코로나19의 감염병 인식은 지각된 위험에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 코로나19의 감염병 인식은 위험감소행동에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 코로나19의 지각된 위험은 위험감소행동에는 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 코로나19의 지각된 위험은 관광지 전환의도에는 영향을 미치지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 다섯째, 위험감소행동은 관광지 전환의도에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 코로나19 감염병에 대한 항공사 고객들의 인식을 통해 감염병에 대한 위험과 위험감소행동과 관광지 전환의도에 대한 관계를 실증적으로 규명하고 분석하고자 하였다. 코로나19의 장기적인 위기 속에서 외부 변수에 취약한 관광산업이 이에 대한 대응방안을 모색해야 할 것이다.
