Abstract

The purpose of this study is to assess the perceptions of local people regarding the intensive tourism development in Alanya, one of the top destinations in Antalya province of Türkiye. Alanya hosts 15% of the foreign tourists coming to Türkiye and about 1/3 of the ones visiting Antalya. Therefore, Alanya is an important sample to examine the effects of mass tourism. Within the context of the research, a total of 450 questionnaires were collected and the data were analyzed by transferring them to the SPSS package program. As a consequence of the satisfactory findings, the structural model was tested using AMOS program. The study has investigated the attitudes of local people towards tourists and their general perceptions of tourism development based on the effects of intensive tourism on living place and quality of life. As a result of the findings, it has been determined that intensive tourism activities have negative impacts on the living place and quality of life of local people. In this respect, it has been concluded that the local people have negative attitudes towards tourists. However, it has also been concluded that local people have positive attitudes towards tourism development depending on the effects of intensive tourism activities on quality of life. Moreover, it has been determined that the attitude of local people to tourists has a negative effect on their general attitude towards tourism development. In the light of the findings of the study, several implications have been presented for tourism sector managers, policy makers and other tourism stakeholders.

Yerel Halkın Yoğun Turizm Gelişimine Gösterdiği Uyum: Alanya Örneği

Abstract

Bu çalışma, Türkiye'nin Antalya ilinin önde gelen destinasyonlarından biri olan Alanya'daki yoğun turizm gelişimine yönelik yerel halkın algılarını değerlendirmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Alanya, Türkiye'ye gelen yabancı turistlerin %15'ini ve Antalya'ya gelenlerin ise yaklaşık 1/3’ünü ağırlamaktadır. Bu durum Alanya'yı kitle turizminin etkilerini incelemek adına önemli bir örneklem haline getirmektedir. Araştırma kapsamında 450 anket formu toplanmış ve veriler SPSS paket programına aktarılarak analiz edilmiştir. Elde edilen tatmin edici bulgular sonucunda yapısal model AMOS programı kullanılarak test edilmiştir. Çalışma, yoğun turizmin yaşam yeri ve yaşam kalitesi üzerindeki etkilerine dayanarak yerel halkın turistlere yönelik tutumları ve turizmin gelişimine ilişkin genel algılarına yönelik tutumlarını araştırmaktadır. Elde edilen bulgular neticesinde, yoğun turizm faaliyetlerinin yerel halkın yaşam yeri ve yaşam kalitesi üzerinde olumsuz etkilerinin olduğu tespit edilmiş ve bu doğrultuda bölge sakinlerinin turistlere yönelik olumsuz tutumlar sergiledikleri belirlenmiştir. Ancak, yerel halkın yoğun turizm faaliyetlerinin yaşam kalitesi üzerindeki etkilerine bağlı olarak turizm gelişimine yönelik olumlu tutum içerisinde oldukları sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Ayrıca, yerel halkın turistlere karşı sergiledikleri tutumun turizm gelişimine yönelik sergiledikleri genel tutuma olumsuz yönde etki ettiği de tespit edilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda ulaşılan bulgular ışığında turizm sektörü yöneticilerine, politika yapıcılarına ve diğer turizm paydaşlarına yönelik çeşitli öneriler sunulmuştur.
