Abstract

This article is focused on attitudes of the local population within the border municipalities in the Euroregion “Drina-Sava-Majevica,” on the further development of sport-event tourism. The survey research obtained a sample of 238 respondents. Collected data were analyzed by using the SPSS (21.0). Analysis of categorical variables (Chi-square test) and coefficients of correlation, together with descriptive statistics, indicated that the local community has reliable attitudes on potentials for development of sport-events, as well as the most popular “Drinska regatta.” However, members of the local community still do not recognize possibilities of using tourism resources for gaining personal and community-wide benefits. Therefore, efforts aimed at further tourism development within the researched border municipalities should be valorized and adequately represented in the tourism market in cooperation with the local population.

边境城市居民对体育赛事旅游发展的态度

这篇文章的重点是欧洲地区“Drina Sava Majevica”边境城市的当地居民对体育赛事旅游业的进一步发展的态度。这项调查研究获得了238名受访者的样本。使用SPSS（21.0）对收集的数据进行分析。分类变量（卡方检验）和相关系数的分析以及描述性统计表明，当地社区对体育赛事以及最受欢迎的“Driska赛舟会”的发展潜力持可靠态度。然而，当地社区的成员仍然不认识到利用旅游资源获得个人和社区利益的可能性。因此，应与当地居民合作，对研究边界城市内旨在进一步发展旅游业的努力进行评估，并在旅游市场上有足够的代表性。

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.
