Abstract
ABSTRACTThis study aims (1) to investigate the perceived risks (i.e. safety, crime, and social risks) associated with the crowd crush accident, (2) to examine the effects of perceived risks, destination attractiveness, and perceived image of a film destination on anticipated emotions and intentions to visit, and (3) to explore another motivator/barrier of visitor behaviour. The data was collected from 921 respondents who were South Korean residents and were aware of the incident. The close-ended questions from the data collection were analyzed by conducting a quantitative analysis. The results indicated that all dimensions of perceived risks affect negative anticipated emotion, and social risk is also negatively related to positive anticipated emotion. It also revealed that destination attractiveness and the perceived image of a film destination affect positive anticipated emotion, and the perceived image is also negatively related to negative anticipated emotion. In addition, the causal effects of positive/negative anticipated emotions on intentions to visit were identified. Moreover, the study conducted a qualitative analysis to analyze the data collected using open-ended questions. The content analysis showed that factors such as unique restaurants, perceived crowding, reviving the local economy, and nostalgia are associated with intentions to visit Itaewon.KEYWORDS: Perceived riskdestination attractivenessperceived image of a film destinationmixed-method approach Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by The Seoul Institute [The Small Research Funding Program 2023].
摘要本研究旨在(1)探讨与人群拥挤事故相关的感知风险(即安全、犯罪和社会风险);(2)考察感知风险、目的地吸引力和电影目的地感知形象对游客预期情绪和参观意愿的影响;(3)探索游客行为的另一个激励因素/障碍。调查数据是从921名知晓该事件的韩国居民中收集的。通过定量分析对数据收集中的封闭式问题进行分析。结果表明,感知风险的各维度均影响消极预期情绪,社会风险与积极预期情绪也呈负相关。研究还发现,目的地吸引力和电影目的地的感知形象对积极预期情绪有影响,感知形象对消极预期情绪也有负相关。此外,积极/消极预期情绪对访问意向的因果影响也被确定。此外,本研究还进行了定性分析,使用开放式问题来分析收集到的数据。内容分析结果显示,“独特的餐厅”、“拥挤感”、“振兴地方经济”、“怀旧感”等因素与前往梨泰院的意向有关。关键词:感知风险目的地吸引力感知电影图像目的地混合方法披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。本研究得到了The Seoul Institute [The Small Research Funding Program 2023]的支持。
期刊介绍:
Journal metrics are valuable for readers and authors in selecting a publication venue. However, it's crucial to understand that relying on any single metric provides only a partial perspective on a journal's quality and impact. Recognizing the limitations of each metric is essential, and they should never be considered in isolation. Instead, metrics should complement qualitative reviews, serving as a supportive tool rather than a replacement. This approach ensures a more comprehensive evaluation of a journal's overall quality and significance, as exemplified in Current Issues in Tourism.
