摘要

虽然背包客的可持续行为一直吸引着学者们的关注,但以往的研究很少解释目的地的文化背景对个人动机和(非)可持续行为的影响。基于(跨)文化适应理论,本研究旨在考察背包客的动机对他们在两个不同的非西方文化目的地参与不同的特定(非)可持续行为的具体影响。对加纳(400 人)和中国(400 人)的背包客进行了调查和对比。结果显示,加纳(逃避现实和放松、自我发展、文化、享受和探险)和中国(自我发展和探险、社交和逃避现实、时尚)的背包客在动机构成方面存在差异。虽然这两个目的地的背包客都经常采取环境可持续行为,但在社会和文化可持续行为方面存在显著差异。背包客在不同的目的地通过参与各种(非)可持续行为来追求不同的心理需求。这些发现凸显了在理解背包客的动机和可持续行为方面存在的环境差异。

A cross-cultural perspective of backpacker motivation and sustainable behavior

While sustainable behaviors of backpackers continue to attract scholarly attention, previous studies rarely explain the impact of the cultural context of the destination on individual motivations and (un)sustainable behaviors. Based on (cross-)cultural adaptation theory, this study aims to examine the specific impact of backpackers' motivations on their engagement in different specific (un)sustainable behaviors in two different non-Western cultural destinations. Both backpackers in Ghana (n = 400) and China (n = 400) are surveyed and contrasted. Results show differences in motivation components in Ghana (escapism & relaxation, self-development, culture, and enjoyment & adventure) and China (self-development & adventure, socialization & escapism, and vogue). While backpackers in both destinations frequently performed environmentally sustainable behaviors, significant differences exist in socially and culturally sustainable behaviors. Backpackers pursue different psychological needs from different destinations by engaging in a variety of (un)sustainable behaviors. These findings highlight contextual differences in understanding backpacker motivations and sustainable behaviors.
