摘要: 独自旅行正成为当下出游的一个趋势,并受到国内外旅游市场的广泛关注。目的地是否适合独自旅行对旅游者来说十分重要,然而,当前研究缺乏对独自旅行者目的地偏好及其内在机制的关注。本文基于“手段-目的链”方法,从目的地层面与价值层面对独自旅行者的目的地偏好及其内在机制进行深入探索,研究发现:(1)独自旅行者的目的地感知体现在安全性、旅游设施、空间特征、环境特征、景观意象、文化意象、当地人和地方日常8个属性中。(2)独自旅行者的价值寻求包括自由、逃避、乐趣与享受、自我反思、自我成长,但“自由”这一价值并未出现在目的地感知与价值寻求的链式关系中。(3)属性-结果-价值的链式关系反映了独自旅行者形成目的地偏好的内在机制。本文有助于推进独自旅行者目的地偏好内在形成机制研究,并为独自旅行市场的营销与管理提供启示。

Abstract:

Solo travel is becoming a trend in travel and is attracting considerable attention from domestic and international travel markets. The suitability of destinations for solo travel is important to travelers; however, current research lacks a focus on solo travelers’ destination preferences and their underlying mechanisms. This study adopts a qualitative research approach, based on the “means-ends” model, to explore the destination preferences of solo travelers and their underlying mechanisms at the destination and value levels. The results showed that: (1) Several key destination attributes, including features, landscape imagery, cultural imagery, local people, and local daily life affect destination preference. (2) Solo travelers’ value seeking includes freedom, escape, fun and enjoyment, self-reflection and self-growth. However, the value of “freedom” does not appear in the chain of destination perception and value seeking. (3) The attribute-outcome-value chain reflects the mechanisms inherent in the formation of destination preferences by solo travelers. This chain provides a clearer understanding of solo travelers’destination preferences, such as concrete attributes and abstract values. The findings of the study will help advance the study of solo travelers’destination preferences and the underlying mechanisms, and provide inspiration for the marketing and management in solo travel markets.

Keywords: solo travel; destination preference; destination perception; value; means-end theory
