THE MEDIATING ROLE OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION MOTIVATION IN THE IMPACT OF GLOBAL IDENTITY ON ECOTOURISM PARTICIPATION INTENTION
Abstract
The research aims to investigate and explicate the ecotourism participation intention of tourists by merging the global identity phenomenon within the conceptual framework of value-basis theory for environmental concern. It delineates the transformative role of adopting global identity on values and consumption habits. To fulfill the aim, research hypotheses are tested using a database derived from the viewpoint of 374 tourists having participated in some form of leisure activity in the preceding 12 months. Hypothesis testing is conducted via PLS-SEM. It is revealed that global identity plays an outstanding role in terms of the predictive ability of motivation factors - normative, altruistic, and biospheric. What is more, both biospheric and normative motivation appear to enhance the intention to participate in ecotourism-type travel. As for altruistic motivation, it is seen to have an insignificant effect on ecotourism-related participation intention.
