“…The hosts/local communities ultimately affect visitor satisfaction, which encourages tourists to revisit [24]. Therefore, measuring the community's perception of the host society is very important for tourism sustainability in the northern regions of Pakistan.…”

The Influence of Islamic Religiosity on the Perceived Socio-Cultural Impact of Sustainable Tourism Development in Pakistan: A Structural Equation Modeling Approach

et al. 2019

Typically, residents play a role in developing strategies and innovations in tourism. However, few studies have sought to understand the role of Islamic religiosity on the perceived socio-cultural impacts of sustainable tourism development in Pakistan. Previous studies focusing on socio-cultural impacts as perceived by local communities have applied various techniques to explain the relationships between selected variables. Circumstantially, the structural equation modeling (SEM) technique has gained little attention for measuring the religiosity factors affecting the perceived socio-cultural impacts of sustainable tourism. This investigation aims to address such limitations in this area of scientific knowledge by applying Smart PLS-SEM, developing an empirical approach, and implementing Smart-PLS software V-3.2.8. The proposed tourism model predicts the effects of the religiosity level on the perceived socio-cultural impacts of sustainable tourism development. In this study, we examine the relationships among religious commitments, religious practice, and religious belief and the socio-cultural effects of sustainable tourism. Our research identifies influential factors through an extensive literature review on communities’ religiosity and the socio-cultural impacts of developing sustainable tourism. We examine and analyze data based on 508 residents’ responses. The findings reveal an R² value of 0.841, suggesting three exogenous latent constructs, which collectively elucidate 84.10% of the variance in the perceived socio-cultural impact of sustainable tourism. The findings reveal that religious respondents with a higher religiosity level have a positive attitude towards developing sustainable tourism. These findings are helpful to understand the dynamics of communities’ perceptions, behaviors, quality of life, cultural aspects, and religiosity factors affecting sustainable tourism in Pakistan. This study is novel in the context of Pakistani cultural and social norms, and this study’s implications may provide further direction for researching and developing sustainable tourism in the northern regions of Pakistan.

“…Azim (2012) concluye que los estudiantes cuya formación se ha basado en una educación experiencial, basada en procesos de práctica y entrenamiento en su formación, están mejor preparados para el mercado laboral. El principal hallazgo, en el contexto particular de estudio -Egipto-, es que algunos currículos no cubren las necesidades de la realidad empresarial del sector turístico, especialmente en áreas como el emprendimiento social para el desarrollo de comunidades locales, que puede ser estimado como estrategia de mercado para aliviar problemas sociales de la población (Aquino, Lück & Schänzel, 2018).…”

2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Los cambios en el entorno exigen la transformación de los currículos de formación en turismo, desde una formación tradicional a una integral, que guarde equilibrio entre la teoría y la práctica, e incluya el desarrollo de competencias blandas y el uso de herramientas tecnológicas. Este artículo teórico-conceptual busca identificar las competencias, habilidades y características sugeridas en la formación en turismo, y describir las tendencias generales de investigación sobre la innovación curricular en dicho tema. Se hace un análisis de artículos científicos académicos extraídos de las bases de datos Scopus y Science Direct entre 2008 y 2018.

“…Studies on the residents' attitudes regarding directions of development of the local community are treated as interdisciplinary studies in the field of environmental sociology (natural and social), and this field of sociology was especially developed over the last three decades [27][28][29][30][31][32]. Research on the residents' attitudes toward tourism development, including their willingness to participate in entrepreneurial activities in the tourism sector, was previously conducted and presented in numerous studies [33][34][35][36][37]. The attitudes of the local community are typically strongly associated with deeply rooted values, as well as with personalities which are not so prone to changes [38][39][40][41][42].…”

et al. 2019

The purpose of this study is to investigate the potential for restructuring industrial areas toward tourism development within local communities, with a special emphasis on the socio-cultural determinants of residents, as well as their attitudes regarding the sustainable development of tourism. The research is also oriented toward the interests of local communities with respect to entrepreneurial activities in the field of tourism within regions relying on traditional industries, in this case, one of the largest open-pit mining surfaces in Europe (near the Serbian town of Lazarevac). The survey was conducted on a sample of 273 respondents. The research results point to the residents’ attitudes regarding the acceptability of tourism development options, as well as their attitudes toward tourism development, with the aim of providing the conditions for a successful transition from a typical heavy industrial setting toward sustainable tourism development.
