“…Research suggests that in large part our worldviews (e.g., environmental worldviews) are antecedent to the park visit and may predispose choices regarding the park visit (Lee & Moscardo, 2005). For example, a number of studies have shown that those holding more eco-centric attitudes (seeing oneself as being subject to nature rather than in control of it) are more likely to participate in nature appreciative activities while those holding more technocentric attitudes (belief that humans have control over nature) are more likely to participate in motorized activities (Dunlap & Van Liere, 1978;Thapa, 2010).…”

Abstract:In recent years, as natural environmental problems have become more serious, environmentally friendly airlines have been attracting attention from many practitioners and scholars. The purpose of this study was to apply the concept of psychological benefits of green brands in an environmentally friendly airline context. Based on the theoretical relationships between the conceptual constructs, a model was developed and then evaluated using data collected from 322 airline passengers in Korea. The results indicated that the three sub-dimensions of psychological benefits of green brands (i.e. warm glow, self-expressive benefits and nature experiences) help to enhance the overall image of an environmentally friendly airline. Furthermore, the overall image plays an important role in the formation of three outcome variables: intentions to use, word-of-mouth intentions and willingness to pay more. Lastly, gender moderates the relationship between overall image and intentions to use.

“…De esta forma, la satisfacción del turista en el ecoturismo depende de las experiencias, proporcionándose una experiencia ecoturística satisfactoria cuando existe un comportamiento responsable hacia el medio ambiente (Lee y Moscardo, 2005). La satisfacción del cliente es lo que actuará como base para formar las actitudes e intenciones posteriores (Parasuraman, 1981).…”

INTRODUCCIÓNActualmente no existe un consenso sobre el origen del término "ecoturismo". Weaver y Lawton (2007) citan a Budowski (1976) como la primera persona que reconoce que la relación entre turismo y medio ambiente tiende a ser conflictiva, pero que existen potencialidades para una relación simbiótica basada en beneficios mutuos. Aunque, se ha llegado a imponer el término acuñado por Ceballos-Lascurain (1987), refiriéndose a ecoturismo como una forma de turismo que consiste en visitar áreas naturales relativamente
