Abstract

Grounded in Weber’s theory of formal and substantive rationality, this study aims to examine the influences of economic and noneconomic factors, namely resident empowerment and trust, on resident support for gaming tourism, a controversial type of tourism development. In particular, with data collected before and during the COVID-19 pandemic, the study also examines how resident perceptions of economic and noneconomic benefits of tourism have changed as a result of the pandemic. Findings show that perceived economic benefits and trust in government were significant determinants before and during the pandemic; however, the effects of empowerment seem to be mixed, depending on how controversial gaming tourism was at the time of data collection. Results suggest gaming tourism is viewed more critically during periods of high volume and that when gaming tourism dries up, residents start to become more supportive and to see the economic and noneconomic benefits in a different light.
居民赋权与游戏旅游支持:19病毒大流行前后居民态度的比较
本研究以韦伯的形式理性和实质理性理论为基础,旨在研究经济和非经济因素(即居民授权和信任)对居民支持博彩旅游业(一种有争议的旅游开发类型)的影响。特别是,通过在 COVID-19 大流行之前和期间收集的数据,本研究还考察了居民对旅游业的经济和非经济效益的看法如何因大流行而发生变化。研究结果表明,在大流行之前和期间,经济利益认知和对政府的信任是重要的决定因素;然而,授权的效果似乎好坏参半,这取决于收集数据时博彩旅游业的争议程度。研究结果表明,在博彩旅游业蓬勃发展的时期,人们对博彩旅游业的看法更为挑剔;而当博彩旅游业逐渐萎缩时,居民开始变得更加支持博彩旅游业,并从不同的角度看待博彩旅游业带来的经济和非经济效益。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Hospitality & Tourism Research (JHTR) is an international scholarly research journal that publishes high-quality, refereed articles that advance the knowledge base of the hospitality and tourism field. JHTR focuses on original research, both conceptual and empirical, that clearly contributes to the theoretical development of our field. The word contribution is key. Simple applications of theories from other disciplines to a hospitality or tourism context are not encouraged unless the authors clearly state why this context significantly advances theory or knowledge. JHTR encourages research based on a variety of methods, qualitative and quantitative.
