“…Despite, or maybe because of, the heterogeneity of approaches and conclusions, the studies which empirically profiled ecotourists (Crossley & Lee, 1994;Khan, 2003;Wight, 1996a & b;Blamey & Braithwaite, 1997;Eagles, 1992;Eagles & Cascagnette, 1995;Kretchman & Eagles, 1990;Hvengaard & Dearden, 1998;Kerstetter et al, 2004;Uysal et al, 1994;Weaver & Lawton, 2002) are used as the basis for generating hypotheses about tourists who behave in an environmentally friendly manner. Furthermore, findings from related areas of environmental studies (Berenguer, Corraliza & Martin, 2005;Kaiser & Shimoda, 1999;Kals, Schumacher & Montada, 1999;Carrus, Bonaiuto & Bonnes, 2005;Clark, Kotchen & Moore, 2003) inform hypothesis generation for the present study. These areas include environmental psychology and research into recycling behavior and environmental volunteering.…”
