Items related to The psychology of tourism (Australian studies in tourism)
This book applies the major concepts and research findings from a number of the central areas of psychology to tourism and tourist behaviour. The book is in two parts: individual psychological perspectives and their application to tourism behaviour; and social, community and work conceptualizations of the tourism industry. In part 1 chapters cover topics such as tourism motivation, personality and tourism, attitudes and tourism, and the environment and tourism. Part 2 includes topics for focusing on tourism marketing, human resources management and the tourism industry, evaluation and tourism, and the social impacts of tourism. At the conclusion of each chapter is a case study which presents current Australian research in that area. This book should be of value as an introduction to the area of psychology and tourism, and should be useful not only to those in an educational context who need a current text on this topic, but also to those in the tourism/hospitality industry who wish to learn more about this subject.
