Mixed-method analysis explores how climate change impacts emotional and behavioral responses of travelers, suggesting significant implications for tourism.
This study explores how climate change attributes in tourist destinations influence the emotional and behavioral responses of travelers. It identifies key climate-related factors and tests their effects through a structural model using qualitative and quantitative approaches. An invariance test examined the differences based on the emotional attachment and regulation of travelers, whereas an fsQCA analysis identified causal combinations that affected destination avoidance behavior. Six hypotheses were supported, and no significant group differences were found. The findings provide theoretical and practical implications in order to understand the responses of travelers in regard to climate change within tourism contexts.
