旅游地居民环境责任行为研究进展与展望

Destination Residents'Environmentally Responsible Behavior in Tourism Research:APerspective Paper

旅游地居民环境责任行为研究是近年来旅游学界关注的新议题。居民作为旅游地可持续发展的核心利益主体,对旅游地生态环境影响更为深远持久,但学界较少系统梳理旅游地居民环境责任行为的相关研究。为更好追踪旅游地居民环境责任行为研究动态,文章检索并整理了2001—2021年78篇国内外期刊文献,对概念内涵、测量量表、影响因素、理论视角等内容研究进展进行分析,并对指标体系、研究方法、研究视角、研究对象等方面展开述评与展望,特别对影响旅游地居民环境责任行为且尚未被主流研究所重视的传统文化、本土化背景因素等展开了讨论。该文有助于理解旅游地居民环境责任行为研究脉络,并为未来该领域的学术发展和政策创新提供参考建议。

Sustainable tourism depends heavily on stakeholders'environmentally responsible behavior.Environmentally responsible behavior(ERB)refers to the activities aimed at minimizing the negative impacts of behavioral patterns and fostering harmonious relations between humans and natural environment of a destinaiton.The active engagement of residents in ERB is essential to enhance the positive environmental impacts of destinations for all stakeholders.Recently,the promotion of residents'ERB has become a prominent topic in tourism research.Despite its significance,there remains a scarcity of studies delving into the primary aspects of residents'ERB.Therefore,an up-todate literature review is essential to analyze destination residents'ERB and establish the future research agenda for the tourism academic community.This study contributes to the literature by conducting a comprehensive and systematic analysis of 78 articles,which sheds lights on the most prominent researchers in tourism academia.The 78 articles on residents'ERB are further analyzed to identify the constructs,driving factors,underlying theories,and methods.Specifically,(1)the results describe the conceptualization of residents'ERB and related constructs,such as pro-environmental behavior,eco-friendly behavior,and sustainable behavior;(2)The findings present the driving factors of residents'ERB that have emerged from the literature,including environmental attitudes,environmental sensitivity,environmental concern,environmental knowledge,community participation,community commitment,community satisfaction,destination image,and place attachment;(3)The results further pinpoint the key theories in the realm of residents'ERB studies,including norm activation theory,place attachment theory,social exchange theory,and social capital theory;(4)The findings suggest that structural equation modeling and multiple regressions are the most commonly used methods in the field.Additionally,other approaches like autoethnography,FsQCA,case studies,and experiments are also adopted in on residents'ERB studies.The results highlight several important topics that have emerged from existing research and provide valuable insights for future research directions.First,some important ERB-related constructs should be further explored,such as waste sorting behavior,energy saving behavior,sustainable adaptation,local green education and lifestyle conservation.Second,new variables,such as economic sacrifices and risk perception,have emerged as the driving factors of tourist ERB during the period of Cvoid-19.Future studies are encouraged,with an emphasis on examining these variables within the destination community.Third,future research should delve into the impacts of residents'ERB on influencing other stakeholders'ERB,including aspects such as tourists'green consumption,firms'green innovation,and governments'ecological management.Fourth,leveraging new technologies,such as digit management,short video,mobile technology,and artificial intelligence can serve as effective interfaces to promote residents'ERB.Given the potential of these new technologies,other methods(e.g.machine learning techniques,text mining,and big data analysis)are warranted to facilitate the fostering of residents'ERB.Fifth,residents'ERB is rooted in residents'daily life within the context of Chinese culture.Chinese culture differs significantly from Western cultures,reflected in the unique elements such as Feng Shui,face consciousness,and Chinese religion.Future research should strive to advance the development of ERB theories within the context of Chinese culture.Overall,this paper contributes to the literature by enhancing the understanding of residents'ERB and offering insights to assist local governments,destination managers,and other related stakeholders in promoting residents'ERB.
