“…Findings revealed that involvement has a significant effect on positive perception but not negative perception. Although a large body of literature has found a significant relationship between place attachment and residents' perceptions towards tourists [54,77,109], the results of the current study found no significant association between place attachment and negative perceptions among vendors in the study area. This finding is consistent with a previous work, which found no significant relationship between place attachment and positive perceptions [83].…”

“…Although SET has been predominantly used to explain residents' perception towards tourism phenomena on the basis of the cost-benefit perspective [52], evidence has suggested that residents' attachment is an effective factor in the formation of their perception towards cost and benefit [53][54][55]. Generally, place attachment concentrates on the strong feeling of people towards places [56], which consists of at least two distinctive dimensions: place identity and place dependence [57,58].…”

“…Generally, place attachment concentrates on the strong feeling of people towards places [56], which consists of at least two distinctive dimensions: place identity and place dependence [57,58]. In a tourism context, place attachment can be related to various aspects, namely residents' attitudes towards tourism develop-ment [53,55,59], place image [54], the effective bond between residents and tourists [58], and iconicity and heritage value of the destination [55]. Due to the ability of place attachment to illustrate residents' receptiveness towards visitors [55], a host community's receptiveness can be improved by increasing social interactions and economic gains within the community.…”

Vendors’ Attitudes and Perceptions towards International Tourists in the Malaysia Night Market: Does the COVID-19 Outbreak Matter?

et al. 2021

Although the negative economic impacts of COVID-19 are undiscovered, the tourism industry is recognized as one of the most vulnerable sectors. Considering tourism’s contribution to Malaysia’s GDP, this study aims to examine vendors’ attitudes and perceptions towards international tourists in night markets after the emergence of COVID-19 and the impacts of propagation power of COVID-19 on vendors’ perceptions in Malaysia. As large numbers of informal workers lost 60% of their income worldwide due to the pandemic, a lack of research is observed on vendors’ attitudes after the pandemic, especially in Southeast Asia. The study model was derived on the basis of the revised social exchange theory (SET). A questionnaire survey was conducted among local vendors in Malaysia using a multistage probability sampling method. Findings revealed that place attachment has a significant effect on positive perception but not negative perception towards international tourists’ receptiveness. Results indicate that positive perceptions towards international tourists significantly and positively mediate the relationship among place attachment, economic gain, and involvement with tourist receptiveness. Moreover, the research concluded that vendors still have positive attitudes towards international tourists’ receptiveness due to economic gain and their place attachment and involvement levels during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Therefore, it could better analyze the perception of tourism development which helps in maintaining the resident happiness.…”

This study aimed to examine the differences in a theoretical model using residents' sustainability perceptions, place attachment (PA), and environmentally responsible behavior in areas with unequal tourism revenue within a national park in Taiwan. The analytical findings suggested that PA affected environmentally responsible behavior at both study sites. However, socio‐culture perceptions, environmental perceptions, and life satisfaction perceptions were precedents to PA in areas with high tourism revenue, but economic perceptions and environmental perceptions influenced PA in areas with low tourism revenue. Finally, we provide managerial implications that can help national park managers achieve sustainable management goals.
