Tourism Management - Science topic

First of all, we must Take in account the sustainability coastal low. In second time, we have to fixe à charge capacity of tourists fréquency. The coast must be managed according to the respect of the envairnement.

Your goal should be to present your research in a clear and concise manner while adhering to academic conventions of the conference.

Your paper will include abstract, review of literature, hypothesis (if any),data analysis/research methodology, suggestions and limitations and finally conclusion followed by references in APA/MLA style.

I recommend to visit shodhganga.com and search for tourism management. You will find some prior research work by other writers in this field. This may help you to build foundation for your paper.

Dont forget to cite their work if you include them in your paper. All the best!

Hello Maksim. This is a challenging task because there is no definitive method to establish the exact count of researchers working in the field of tourism and hospitality research. To ensure accuracy, you must specify your inclusion criteria. For instance, do you want to include only researchers specializing in this field, or do you also want to consider those with cross-disciplinary expertise? Also, do you want to incorporate gastronomy and foodservice-based researchers in your selection criteria?

Regarding journals, limiting your search to Scopus, WoS, and ERA index journals would be best. It's crucial to focus on quality over quantity since many non-indexed tourism and hospitality journals are available worldwide. I hope this information is helpful.

Thanks Dr. Sunil Kumar Kabia for your interest, I've private messaged you for more details on the project.

Great question Ankita Sharma , you may try below links or consult the institutes direct to provide the update data on doctorate numbers.

You can also see the effect from the lens of each country as moderator/MGA. It would be interesting to see how tourist from each country perceives your model. Thanks

Thank you Dr. Jane Bitok , you may check below links

Sustainable Tourism got to do with the local community. The economic impact of sustainable tourism in developing nations is still scarce in the field. Covid may have changed or affected the majority of local community socio-economy across the world particularly those heavily rely on tourism engagement to generate economy.

Challenges over the term 'Sustainable Tourism' itself. Nowadays with AI mushrooming - many fake destinations claim 'sustainable' while against the genuine value of 'sustainable' itself or time to go back revisit Ceballos- Lascurain Eco tourism origin long before sustainability exist in mass.

Post covid polemic - Is sustainability ever exist? the world is continuously suffering in the hand of mass-tourism (esp unethical China mass tourist) have ongoing discussion yet heavily over webinar platforms. Or does covid itself fails to provide a steadfast lesson to an unethical tourist?

Dear Ernesto Batista Sánchez

Certainly many studies of tourism have shown the importance of climate in the tourist destination and there are many islands in some countries where tourism is seasonal, such as Malaysia in the state of Terengganu there are three islands only receive tourists for 6 months .. So it could be a negative factor or positive on Tourist area, currently there is a high global competition in the tourism sector and the choice of destination tourism is not as before there are many influential factors

S-D logic is applied to every sector of Economics, therefore you may have to be a bit more specific.

Also, S-D is a method, a tool, to answer specific questions. You don't state what is your topic - a the question you would try to answer - by applying the Supply and Demand model...

Dear Safyian

Let me briefly point to the fact that sustainable tourism includes (as my colleagues Edwin already suggested) a social dimension alongside the environmental dimension usually connected to eco-tourism. My suggestion therefore is in starting your research to first disambiguate the terminology and then to focus on a specific aspect of developing a sustainable tourism policy. In other words: your research questions at the moment, however interesting, is too broad to be successfully set at the centre of a study.

In any case good luck with your work

Dear Neda,

Your intention to develop karstic cave to as a touristic destination. I hope before going for service marketing better use tourism marketing.

I hope you have to more focus about the existing products/attractions that motivate (Pull) tourists to the destination. Then you have to think about the value addition to the existing products.

Yes, you can ask, but a faculty member from 27 years ago may be retired or dead not.  Be aware that many researchers from this era may be hard to find, or may no longer have their records.

Hi everyone, 

 if you have another paper on this topic please send to me..

I researched the impact of standards in fruit production. (GLOBALGAP, EUROGAP). The most important thing is to determine the position of the input attributes of determining the start of the implementation of standards. Measure the difference between input and output. The attributes you have to define itself.

Dear Rose.

I use the following principle. I type the keyword in Google and put the journal and pdf. So get similar papers.

The answers given by Mr. Olya, Ph.D., and Mr. Mensah, Ph. D., offer na wide spectre on the issue. If needed, I can give you some references in Spanish, Portuguese and French literatures also.

Dear colleague

I think that the following research note will help you.

Thanks Rajiv...much appreciated!

I'd also like to share this paper of Taks (2013). She has developed the position that local (smaller) sport events might create more social impact than mega (larger) sport events. Mega events might be more interesting for developing economic impact and local events for social impact. Interesting position for policy makers, but I think more research on this topic is needed.

I think first you have to know the destination in many aspects as much as possible .then starting to Bold up the factors which exists and can be improved and be acceptable for large amount of people , even people who are very far away from your destination.

Friends Here,

Carrying capacity in case of tourism does not mean clothes, bags and food. Here carrying in capacity in tourism indicates- visitors load, frequency of visit, intensity, facilities to serve tourist, vehicle per day playing in tourist or natural area etc. How many tourist can accommodate by the spot with out disturbing the natural balance in the spot. 

Hi, Daniela! I didn't , so your help would be great for me! Thank you!

Aon,

Important will be the definition of "exploit", from a tourism perspective. Your questionnaire would need to include categories of exploitation, ie use of wood for firewood, impact on forest due to transport or traveling  (transport physical damage, hiker impact), forest impact as result of pollution, construction or building impact, biodiversity influences, etc. correlating these with tourist and non-tourist activities.

Dear All,

thank you for your precious advices. I hope to use your indications for a next article.

Hi Mark, in a recently research we conducted on wetlands in Colombia, which was based on expert knowledge and participative mapping, we found that salt marshes are especially important for regulating services, followed in importance by cultural and provisioning ES categories. Likewise, we assessed the importance of the ecosystem functions and our findings showed for salt marshes are important for regulation, followed by information, production and habitat functions.

If you need to think about economic activities for restoration plans of salt marshes, I would definitely recommend including the cultural services for example, tourism, fauna observation, scientific trips and scholar activities, but would suggest keeping the local community involved in it. As the local community has an economic benefit, people will keep the marshes in the best state as possible. How well you know the plants of the marshes? I am sure that there are some possibilities for handmade products… that is very common in the Tropics. Other activity you could explore is fishing (sport and commercial), which might be a key livelihood in the region. The central point here is the biodiversity. 

Cheers!

Hi Putu,

If your separate questionnaires were filled-up by the same sampled respondents, you can use the single SEM model. If the different questionnaire filled-up by different respondents, you can't (from your statements, not sure filled-up by the same respondents)

However, you might want to do more literature review through various theoretical frameworks to see how different concepts / constructs are related or potentially related or previous research gaps are identified e.g. tourism & community etc.  Once the constructs nailed down, then search for / adapt their respective survey questionnaires.  Meaning all questionnaire used must tied to certain constructs you want to measure & test.  Otherwise, even though different questionnaire filled-up by the same sampled respondents, they might not be useful for research outcomes / knowledge contribution.  All the best.

Regards,

Fung

"Most influential" depends on how you define influence and whom the influence will affect. However, a rough guide to answer your question can be to check the most cited articles of tourism journals. For example the currently most cited articles in Tourism Management are:

Role of social media in online travel information search by Zheng Xiang | Ulrike Gretzel

Tried and tested: The impact of online hotel reviews on consumer consideration by Ivar E. Vermeulen | Daphne Seegers

A review of innovation research in tourism by Anne Mette Hjalager

As a former government person I agree that SEM findings need to be "translated" into readable documents for businesses. There is also a need for engagement with tourism businesses to ensure research has an end, a meaningful end, rather than just being research for research sake! It needs to be driven towards a usable outcome.

I completely agree with Krishnan that to get more guests and more facilities, apply the principle of affordability.

About Europe you may see

Sorry for the late reply……

To some extent yes, but it various from place to place based on travelers changing behavior i.e., based on factors which influence holiday decision making.

With respect to information and advisory role is concerned there again a person located across cities will be advising on the holidays, in many intermediary web sites travel portals or any tour operator/ travel agencies website we can see a pop-up CHAT WITH EXPERTS who will be available to give info and directions on holidays.

Yes quality expressed at the time of purchase has to be delivered at any cost otherwise the vendor will definitely lose the client, client will never sit quit they are going to forums where they can rate the service quality in the form of stars/points and consumer forums are very active n social media too…..

Normally travelers, who make online purchases, make a small research about the credibility of the portal and past reviews and discuss them with peer group online or offline who has already used the service…

Doing online purchase or not, depends on to things like

1) Knowledge about the use internet (people in many countries even today depend on fax or phone).

2) The credit card or net banking facility to make online payment either through computer or mobile it’s very important (Here again what is the percentage of population who are having these facilities).........

Elham, my student just finished work looking at tourism on grey reef shark behaviors (see today's Coral Reefs for a preliminary reef site article about this work). Tourism can certainly impact on the health of a reef (anchoring, pollution, impacting animal behaviors etc) but without interest in the reef environment (or the tourist $$$ it brings in) coral reefs may not be able to be conservatively managed. As mentioned above its always going to be a trade-off

This is a complex question to answer as much depends on the nature, size, state of economic development of the community in question, and indeed the political system under which a community lives. The economist would immediately point you in the direction of multiplier effects, the specialist in event management would refer to the ability of a community to initiate special events that features its cultural and other social capital assets, the sociologist might point you in the direction of changes in land usage patterns, the impact of migrant workers attracted by new job opportunities and much else. Another management specialist could refer to the impacts of new managerial techniques and methods that might be attracted. Like many questions - easy to ask- much more difficult to answer. There exists a significant literature about the tourism induced economic growth hypothesis. I note you are from Barbados, so is your question generic or nature or are you enquiring in terms of small island economies?

I am not sure, on second thought, of what you mean by minihotels and guest houses. Are they 1 or 2 star hotels? Or do you refer to B&Bs? One source of data on international tourism to Italy and from Italy is the Bank of Italy. You can check on the microdata web page of the Bank's web site: http://www.bancaditalia.it/statistiche/rapp_estero/turismo-int/microdati-turismo;internal&action=_setlanguage.action?LANGUAGE=it.

I am afraid that as of today there is not the English version of the web page. But if necessary I can help. In the survey foreign tourists on their way back home are asked whether they stayed at a hotel or B&B etc. Maybe it could be useful to you.
