Abstract

This study aims to examine how the perceptions of liminal experiences in girlfriend getaway (GGA) travel transform women's eudaimonic well-being through satisfaction with GGA liminal experiences. It extracted 16 measurable items of four dimensions of GGA liminal experiences through panel experts and further confirmed this measurement scale through exploratory factor analysis. The results of a survey of 322 GGA tourists indicated that gender dynamics, existential authenticity, and empowerment directly affect building eudaimonic well-being, but escapism does not. However, travel satisfaction mediates the effect of these four GGA liminal experiences on eudaimonic well-being. This study contributes to female tourism research by exploring how liminal experiences in travel build eudaimonic well-being. It also provides researchers with measurable items of the four dimensions of liminal experiences in travel in future studies. Recommendations were provided to promote GGAs.

以旅游满意度为中介，探讨阈限体验对女性游客幸福感的影响

本研究旨在探讨女性在女友度假（GGA）旅行中的阈限体验如何通过对GGA阈限体验的满意度来改变女性的幸福幸福感。通过面板专家提取GGA阈限体验四个维度的16个可测项，并通过探索性因子分析进一步确认该测量量表。对322名GGA游客的调查结果表明，性别动态、存在真实性和赋权直接影响幸福感的构建，而逃避主义对幸福感的构建没有直接影响。然而，旅行满意度介导了这四种GGA阈值体验对幸福感的影响。本研究探讨了女性旅游中的阈限体验如何构建幸福感，为女性旅游研究做出了贡献。这也为未来的研究提供了旅游阈限体验四个维度的可测量项目。提出了促进政府间政府协议的建议。

期刊介绍： International Journal of Tourism Research promotes and enhances research developments in the field of tourism. The journal provides an international platform for debate and dissemination of research findings whilst also facilitating the discussion of new research areas and techniques. IJTR continues to add a vibrant and exciting channel for those interested in tourism and hospitality research developments. The scope of the journal is international and welcomes research that makes original contributions to theories and methodologies. It continues to publish high quality research papers in any area of tourism, including empirical papers on tourism issues. The journal welcomes submissions based upon both primary research and reviews including papers in areas that may not directly be tourism based but concern a topic that is of interest to researchers in the field of tourism, such as economics, marketing, sociology and statistics. All papers are subject to strict double-blind (or triple-blind) peer review by the international research community.
