Over the past few years, tourism research has raised critical issues of individual and contextual behavioral factors about environmental protection during leisure activities.To address and extend these issues, the present study developed and tested a new integrated model of how intention towards sustainability affects tourist motivation and value evaluation, and enhances satisfaction.In the main dimension analysis, the results of this study of 642 tourists show that intention towards sustainability was positively related to tourist motivations of relaxation, excitement and learning, and further influences their evaluation of novelty and overall value, thereby improving satisfaction.This study further conducted sub-dimension analysis of motivation and value evaluation. The resultsof the sub-dimension analysis demonstrate relaxation affects excitement and learning via novelty. Thus, the results confirm that novelty, excitement, and learning play a mediating role between relaxation and overall value.We discuss how this intriguing multiple mediation mechanism can be explained by using theory and research. |
