The Relationship Between Environmental Consciousness in the Context of New Environmental Paradigms and Ecotourism Knowledge
Abstract
The research aims to determine the relationship between the students’ perceptions of environmental consciousness and ecotourism knowledge in tourism-related departments. In this context, data were collected with a survey using a quantitative research method between April 10, 2021, and May 10, 2021, via Whatsapp and Facebook. The universe of the research is the students in two 2-year degrees, undergraduate, master, and doctorate programs studying in tourismrelated departments in Turkey. The research sample is the students (400 participants) who have been selected to represent this program. As a result of the analysis, it was found that there were medium- and low-level positive relationships between factor dimensions. According to the correlation analysis performed for the sum of both scales, it was found that there is a medium-level positive relationship between environmental consciousness and ecotourism knowledge. It was determined that the regression analysis results support this result.
