This study examines the effect of destination attractiveness, environmental sensitivity, and satisfaction with interpretive services on place attachment. This study also aims to identify the effect of place attachment on environmentally responsible behaviour. This study was using a questionnaire as a data collection method. This study's total sample was 400 respondents—however, the number of questionnaires that can be processed as 398. The data were processed using PLS-SEM (Partial Least Square). The result was obtained in this study: (1) destination attractiveness has a significant positive effect on place attachment, (2) environmental sensitivity has a significant positive effect on place attachment, (3) satisfaction with interpretive services has a significant positive effect on place attachment, (4) place attachment has a significant positive effect on environmentally responsible behaviour (5) destination attractiveness has a significant positive effect on environmentally responsible behaviour (6) environmental sensitivity has a significant positive effect on environmentally responsible behaviour (7) satisfaction with interpretive services has a significant positive effect on environmentally responsible behaviour. This research contributes to the literature on tourism marketing

“…Previous studies on the reasons for TERB were mainly divided into three aspects: the tourists' demographic characteristics (including gender, age, education, and income) [13][14][15][16], the tourists' psychological cognitive and emotional factors (e.g., environmental knowledge, environmental commitment, environmental sensitivity, place attachment, and travel experience) [8,[16][17][18][19][20], and situational factors (e.g., social and subjective norms) [7,21,22]. Besides, several theoretical frameworks, such as the theory of reasoned action (TRA) [23,24], the theory of planned behavior (TPB) [7,21,25], the norm activation model (NAM) [22,26], and the value-belief-norm (VBN) theory [27,28], have been used to understand the mechanisms of TERB.…”

It is well recognized that tourists’ environmentally responsible behavior is a prominent contributor to the sustainable development of tourist destinations. Based on the original Value-Identity-Personal norm (VIP) model and self-efficacy theory, this study proposes an extended VIP model for exploring the generalized determinants of tourists’ environmentally responsible behavior and investigating the impact mechanism of this behavior in China. A total number of 435 self-reported questionnaires were collected on a professional online survey platform. Our research results indicated that the extended VIP model could significantly and validly explain tourists’ environmentally responsible behavior. Specifically, biospheric values have an indirect but rooted effect on tourists’ environmentally responsible behavior. Furthermore, two indirect paths play the same mediational role between biospheric values and tourists’ environmentally responsible behavior. The findings expand the application field of the VIP model, contribute to a better understanding for academic researchers of tourists’ environmentally responsible behavior and shed light on managerial implications for practitioners in the sustainable development of tourist destinations.

Tourists' environmentally responsible behavior: A new path of sustainable development of grassland tourism

Deeply exploring the formation path of tourists' environmentally responsible behavior is of great significance to standardize tourists' behavior and protect the environment of grassland tourist attractions. In this paper, an integrated model that mainly discussed two parts was explored by the stimulus–organism–response (S‐O‐R) theory adopting structural equation model (SEM) and multi‐group analysis (MGA). The first part is the direct role of the service quality, subjective norms, and environmental knowledge in motivating tourists' behavioral attitude and place attachment, as well as the indirect role of those three variables in shaping environmentally responsible behavior. As the second part, the potential moderating influence of visitor gender on the model is also discussed extensively in the paper. According to a survey of grassland tourists (n = 484) from Gansu and Qinghai provinces in China, it could be found that both environmental knowledge through behavioral attitude and service quality through local attachment have indirectly influence on environmentally responsible behavior. Direct and indirect effects of subjective norms on environmentally responsible behavior exist, and the indirect effects are based on behavioral attitude and local attachments. There is a significant moderating effect of gender on the effects of environmental knowledge on behavioral attitude, service quality, and subjective norms on place attachment. Finally, the future research directions were proposed based on existing limitations.
