Abstract

Bu çalışma ile farklı milliyetten olan turistlerin
birbirlerine karşı sergiledikleri tutumlar ile bu tutumların ortaya çıkarttığı
sonuçları ve dış gruptan algıladıkları tehditleri bütünleşik tehdit teorisi
çerçevesinde belirleyebilmek amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmanın kuramsal temeli; kültür,
kültürel farklılıklar, tutum, kültürlerarası turist tutumları, Alman ve Rus
turistlerin kültürel özellikleri, turist-turist ilişkilerine ait teoriler,
bütünleşik tehdit teorisi ve önyargı kavramları kapsamında oluşturulmuştur.
Kuramsal çalışma doğrultusunda anket
formları geliştirilerek, Alman ve Rus turistlerden oluşan 871 adet katılımcıya,
Haziran-Temmuz-Ağustos 2015 tarihleri arasında uygulanmıştır. Genel olarak;
Almanlar ile Rusların sorunlu bir geçmişi olduğu ve Almanlar ile Rusların her
zaman geçinmekte zorlandıkları sonuçlarına ulaşılmıştır. Alman turistlerin
bütünleşik tehditleri Rus turistlere nazaran daha fazla hissettikleri ve Alman
turistlerin Rus turistlere karşı önyargılı davrandıkları belirlenmiştir.
