To develop and evaluate a structural model grounded in social exchange theory examining how community satisfaction, services, and commitment influence resident perceptions and support for tourism development.
Surveyed a cross-sectional sample of local residents (N=363).
Modeled community satisfaction with neighborhood conditions, satisfaction with community services, and community commitment as exogenous latent variables.
Tested eight path hypotheses linking community attributes to tourism support through perceived positive and negative tourism impacts as mediating variables.
Perceived positive and negative impacts significantly influenced overall resident support for tourism development.
Satisfaction with neighborhood conditions and community services were significant determinants of perceived tourism impacts.
Community commitment was not a significant antecedent of residents' attitudes toward tourism.
