This study examines the role of escapism, experience co-creation, existential authenticity, and experiential satisfaction as antecedents of memorable digital-free tourism experiences. It then examines the relationship between memorable digital-free tourism experiences and hedonic well-being, eudaimonic well-being and place attachment. Survey data were gathered, via WeChat, from 389 Chinese tourists who had engaged in a digital-free meditation retreat in China between August 2022 and July 2023. Empirical results reveal that levels of escapism and experiential satisfaction positively explain memorable digital-free tourism experiences. Further, more memorable digital-free tourism experiences are associated with greater hedonic well-being, eudaimonic well-being and place attachment.

Tourism Management Perspectives
The global tourism industry, a significant contributor to the world economy, often grapples with challenges related to the interactions between resident communities and tourists. This study, testing a cognitive appraisal theoretical model, explores how the quality of interactions (situation) between residents and tourists influences emotional solidarity (appraisal), which explains perceived emotions associated with tourists, and how these, in turn, affect residents' desire to engage in specific behaviors with tourists. Survey data were collected from a sample of Fijian residents (N = 407) in six tourism destinations using a mall-intercept method and analyzed using co-variance-based structural equation modelling. Of the 13 proposed hypotheses, nine were significant, with variances explained ranging from 17 to 48%. These findings make a meaningful contribution to the literature and present crucial insights and actionable strategies for tourist stakeholders.

While there has been extensive research on resident sentiment towards tourism, few have explored the uniqueness of gateway communities and their relationship to the Protected Areas (PA) surrounding them. This study explores how resident trust of PA managers and support for PAs surrounding their community can spillover to explain additional variance in resident support or opposition to tourism. To test this, traditional antecedents to resident support for tourism, like psychological, social, and political empowerment and the economic benefits from tourism, were modeled independently and in tandem with trust in PA managers and resident support for PAAs. Results from 405 residents of Transylvania County, NC, USA show trust of Pisgah National Forest managers (β = 0.137, p = 0.001) and resident support for the PA influence their support for tourism (β = 0.257, p = 0.001) and explain an additional six percentage points in why residents support tourism within their gateway communities when included in the model. These findings suggest that when evaluating gateway communities’ support for tourism, it is prudent to also include resident perspectives of PAs and how they are managed as resident perspectives of the PA and its management can spillover to their attitudes towards tourism.
... Wang et al. also applied SOR theory to the context of museum tourism and confirmed that an individual's familiarity with VR technology can improve the quality of flow experience, and thus affect the willingness to use VR technology [30]. Erul to explore the attitudes of community residents in supporting tourism behavior and its driving mechanism and found that the residents' place attachment affected the emotional unity between residents and tourists and that both place attachment and emotional unity were important factors for residents to support tourism, among which emotional unity was the most influential factor [31]. Aleshinloye et al. introduced emotional solidarity into SOR theory and built a conceptual model of residents' participation in tourism driving mechanism, and the research found that residents' emotional solidarity and place attachment directly affected community residents' participation in tourism and that place attachment indirectly affected community residents' participation through emotional solidarity [32]. ...

... Residents' perceptions of the environmental impact of tourism industry convergence are influenced by various factors (Erul et al., 2023(Erul et al., , 2024. Compared to negative perceptions, positive perceptions among residents have a greater impact on their support for tourism development, indicating a higher level of readiness to participate in the tourism development process (Pazhuhan et al., 2023;Almeida-García et al., 2016). ...

... Due to climate change, drought has become one of the most significant natural hazards, causing extensive economic, social, and environmental impacts (Bogale & Erena, 2022;Delfiyan et al., 2021;Wanders & Van Lanen, 2015), which are likely to occur in any climate region (Yurekli & Kurunc, 2006). Drought, indicating a decrease in precipitation compared to a region's longterm average (Mishra & Singh, 2010), is the most complex and costly of natural hazards (Fontaine & Steinemann, 2009), and is considered a threat to human societies, especially in developing countries (Kibue et al., 2016;Yazdanpanah et al., 2024). Drought also has adverse effects on various economic sectors, including agriculture (Below et al., 2012;Heydari Alamdarloo et al., 2020;Savari & Moradi, 2022;Zobeidi et al., 2021), and can significantly contribute to vulnerability and instability among farmers' households and livelihoods (Ahmad et al., 2022;Keshavarz et al., 2014). ...

... Critics such as Fischer and Guzel (2023) note that preregistration conflicts with the open and iterative nature of theory building in qualitative research, where data collection procedures are inductive and subject to ethical constraints on data sharing. Font et al. (2024) point out that introducing practices mainly designed for quantitative researchers, such as preregistrations, may be perceived as undermining the credibility and trustworthiness of qualitative research, contributing to rigid and less adaptable research approaches. ...

... The swift spread of the coronavirus from a small corner of China to across the globe, primarily because of international travel (Khan, 2021), resulted in dire consequences for the tourism industry (Abou-Shouk et al., 2023;Erul et al., 2023). The period after the virus outbreak in the world could rightly be referred to as the "darkest time" for the global tourism sector in recent history. ...

... Negative service experiences on social media often cause anger, disappointment, and frustration, leading to punitive action against destinations (Hossain et al., 2023;Xu et al., 2021). The intangible and inconsistent nature of tourism services heightens these effects when expectations are not met (Hossain et al., 2023), fostering animosity and motivating boycotts (Boley et al., 2023;Yu et al., 2020). Therefore, we hypothesize the following: ...

... Throughout 2020 and 2021, any sense of opposition to tourism was a moot point with the COVID-19 pandemic all-consuming-the world waited to travel (given the widespread closure of international borders), just as many tourism-dependent destinations and regions were hungry to welcome visitors back (Sharma, Thomas, & Paul, 2021). But of course, this was done with some trepidation as residents voiced concerns that inviting visitors into communities increased their risk and vulnerability to COVID-19 (Erul, Woosnam, & Denley, 2022;Ojo, Ferreira, Salazar, Bergstrom, & Woosnam, 2023), as residents were noted as ascribing responsibility to tourists for spreading the virus (Woosnam, Sharma, Stylidis, & Singh, 2023); and even fostering negative stereotypes of visitors, which was shown to decrease hospitality among residents (Antwi, et al., 2023). The pandemic has highlighted the level of importance -for the sustainable planning and development of the industry -to understand how local opposition and resentment towards tourists (shift in behavior to avoid negative outcomes) is developed (as protection strategies) in response to various crises (e.g., economic, political, military, and public health in nature) humanity is progressively facing. ...

... For example, Liu et al. (2020) suggested that environmental attitudes and environmental behavioral intentions may play a mediating role in the relationship between environmental knowledge and PEB. Green consumer values (GCVs), which build on the foundation of consumer value theory, are defined as a person's tendency to express their own environmental protection values through their purchasing and consumption behavior (Haws et al., 2014). For example, Ribeiro et al. (2023) showed how green consumer values moderate the relationship between attitudes to pro-environmental travel and willingness to sacrifice in relation to PEB. ...

... Awareness of the role of man in the transformation of mountain nature led to the need to include him in the object of research, first within the framework of natural-economic systems, and then to complex adaptive and socio-ecological systems (Klein et al. 2019). The current stage of critical rethinking (Sarmiento et al. 2023b) claims to form the prototype of a new super-interdisciplinary mountain science that seeks to radicalize geoscience (Castree 2017), moving to a higher level of place attachment based on the use of local languages and place names (Kong and Sarmiento 2022). In the context of decolonization, the reflection of connections between nature and people shifts towards local actors and cultures. ...
