Hui Yang, Yunfei Long — Fri, 30 Aug 2024 00:00:00 +0700

Tourist satisfaction evaluation is one of the key issues of tourism management research, and it can also provide important decision-making references for the development of the tourism service industry and service providers. Based on the micro-data of tourism during China’s National Day Golden Week, this article surveys tourist satisfaction with a tourist attraction. The statistical treatment of the sample selection problem is carried out based on obtaining the sample data. Based on the classical regression, the Heckman model, the Switch model, and the treatment effect model for the statistical treatment of sample selection are compared and studied. From the methodological perspective, the study finds that the statistical method after processing the sample selection problem confirms the absolute positive correlation between tourist income and tourist satisfaction; classical regression does not apply to the analysis of micro cross-section data; the standard Heckman model is less adaptable than the other two methods in dealing with sample selection. On this basis, according to the results of empirical analysis, it is suggested that personalized and differentiated tourism services should be provided according to the different identities of tourists to improve their satisfaction.

Amidst the backdrop of burgeoning online retail and escalating consumer complaints, this study delves into the factors influencing consumer satisfaction on the Pinduoduo (PDD) e-commerce platform in China. The research endeavors to achieve three primary objectives: (1) to empirically validate the impact of PDD's customer service quality on consumer satisfaction; (2) to explore the nuanced influence of perceived quality and perceived value on consumer satisfaction; and (3) to proffer actionable recommendations for enhancing customer service quality. Employing a quantitative research methodology, data were meticulously collected from a sample of 417 PDD users aged 24 to 43 through an online questionnaire. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was subsequently employed to rigorously analyze the interrelationships between service quality, consumer expectations, perceived quality, value, and satisfaction. The findings of this study unequivocally demonstrate that (1) PDD's customer service quality exerts a statistically significant and positive impact on consumer satisfaction; (2) perceived value wields a significant positive influence on satisfaction, whereas the impact of perceived quality is comparatively minor; and (3) consumer expectations positively affect both perceived value and overall satisfaction. These results underscore the importance of customer service quality, perceived value, and the fulfillment of consumer expectations in elevating consumer satisfaction on e-commerce platforms. Avenues for future research include investigating age-related disparities in satisfaction, integrating qualitative research methods to gain deeper insights, and refining the CCSI model to enhance its applicability within the dynamically evolving digital landscape.

Effect of Sense of Place and Development Expectation on Perception of Tourism Impact of Residents of Tourist Destinations: Case Study of Jiuzhaigou Nature Reserve

Sha Liu — Fri, 30 Aug 2024 00:00:00 +0700

Residents are the main factors that influence tourism development in a community. The integration of community residents into the overall development of local tourist attractions has attached significance to the study of the perception of tourism's impact on residents in tourist destinations. Sense of place reflects the unique emotional connection between people and the place and provides a fresh perspective for further research on residents' perception of tourism impact. A theoretical model of sense of place–development expectation–impact perception was established based on a sense of place and development expectation. This was verified through a case study of the Jiuzhaigou Nature Reserve in Sichuan Province. Residents with a strong sense of place have high expectations of tourism development and a great perception of tourism impact. Development expectation indirectly intensifies the effect of a sense of place on residents' perception of tourism impact. The overall development of community tourism is a critical factor that influences the perception and attitude of residents. This paper guides planning for the development of tourist destinations.
