Abstract

ABSTRACT This study focuses on understanding how transformation happens and the emergence of different dimensions, including existential transformation, learning transformation, and behavioral transformation from solo travelers’ perspectives. The hypotheses were drawn from sparse literature review and were tested based on validated measurement scales. A questionnaire was distributed and successfully collected 336 valid online responses, which was then analysis using SmartPLS 3.0. The findings reveal significant direct relationships between transformative travel experiences and their dimensions. The paper provides useful insights for transformation theory about the influence of different dimensions, namely, travel motivation, self-reflection on the transformation process of solo travelers.
探索变革性旅行过程:检验旅行动机的调节作用和独自旅行者自我反思的中介作用
ABSTRACT 本研究侧重于从单人旅行者的角度了解转变是如何发生的,以及不同维度(包括存在转变、学习转变和行为转变)的出现。研究假设来自稀少的文献综述,并根据经过验证的测量量表进行了测试。我们发放了调查问卷,并成功收集了 336 份有效在线回复,然后使用 SmartPLS 3.0 对其进行了分析。研究结果表明,变革性旅行体验与其维度之间存在重要的直接关系。本文就旅行动机、自我反思等不同维度对独自旅行者转变过程的影响为转变理论提供了有益的启示。
