This study is to examine the determinants of tourists' revisit intention focusing on behavioral and psychological factors. Many studies have found physical conditions affecting tourists' intention to revisit. The study examines the determinants of tourist's revisit intention in terms of tourists' psychological and behavioral elements such as satisfaction and motivation. The data used for the statistical analyses were from a survey targeting people living in Daegu and Pusan metropolitan cities and some cities of Gyeongsangbuk-do and Gyeongsangnam-do provinces in Korea. The study employs regression analysis to investigate the effect of satisfaction and motivations on tourists' revisit intention. As the results of OLS regression analysis, satisfaction, push and pull motivation are predictors of tourists' revisit intention. It shows that tourists' psychological and behavioral factors have a significant impact on tourists' revisit intention. The study suggests the implications for enhancing tourists' revisit intention by motivating tourists' psychological and behavioral needs.

이 연구는 음식축제를 방문한 축제관람객의 축제관광행위지향성과 축제만족도, 사후행위의도의 관계를 분석하고자 하였다. 설문조사는 2011 대한민국 국제요리 경연대회 방문객을 대상으로 실시되었으며, 213부의 유효표본을 획득하였다. 연구결과, 이 연구에서 제시하였던 네 가지의 축제관광행위지향성 요인 중 '자기확장', '사회유희', '체험자체' 축제관광행위지향성이 통계적 유의수준인 0.05하에서 축제만족과 사후행위의도에 직 간접적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 검증되었다. 변수들간의 상대적 영향력은 '자기확장' 축제관광행위지향성이 축제만족과 사후행위의도에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 변수로 나타났다. 그러나 '구별짓기' 축제관광행위지향성은 통계적 유의수준하에서 축제만족과 사후행위의도에 유의미한 영향을 미치지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 분석결과는 국제요리 경연대회의 관람객 만족도 증가와 마케터들의 경쟁력 있는 축제관광상품 개발에 유의미한 정보를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

Busan is a representative of ocean cities in South Korea, which attracts many Chinese tourists. As a number of Chinese tourists increase, Chinese tourists' evaluations of sightseeing resources in Busan appear extremely important. However, there are few researches on Chinese tourists' evaluations of sightseeing in Busan. The purpose of this paper is to analyze Chinese tourists' evaluations of Busan tourism. Chinese tourists who travel to Busan are chosen as research objects and several aspects including marine, fisheries and general tourism are investigated to evaluate the tourists' overall satisfaction of the tourism in Busan. IPA analysis, factor analysis multiple regression analysis are used for the research. The results are as follows. Chinese tourists' evaluations of the importance and performance level of variables on Busan tourism were significantly different (total 19 of 25 variables) and the performance was lower than importance. This means the outputs of the various Busan tourism elements do not live up to their expectations. The findings show that Chinese visitors have high satisfaction on infrastructures of fisheries tourism (e.g. cleanness of aquatic product tourism facilities and sanitary state on fishery products), but low satisfaction in terms of the contents (e.g. unique cooking method experience of seafood and traditional seafood cooking consumption). The factors of fisheries tourism (e.g. product services of fisheries tourism and the attractiveness of seafood in Busan) never affect their satisfaction and intention to revisit and recommend the city.
