Year 2025, Volume: 22 Issue: 1, 192 - 211, 27.03.2025

Abstract

Çalışma, kırsal rekreasyon etkinliğine katılan ziyaretçilerin etkinlik süreçlerinde sürdürülebilirlik paradigması kapsamında doğal, kültürel ve ekonomik çevreyi kapsayan sorumlu davranışlarının analiz edilmesi amacı ile hazırlanmıştır. Çalışmanın evrenini kırsal rekreasyon etkinliklerine katılan bireyler oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmanın örneklemini kırsal rekreasyon etkinliklerine katılan 483 birey oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada rafting etkinlik türüne katılanların yüksek araştırma davranışına sahip oldukları, suda dalış ve yamaç paraşütü etkinlik türlerine katılanların yüksek doğal kaynak davranışına sahip oldukları belirlenmiştir. Offroad etkinlik türüne katılanların daha yüksek yerel kaynak davranışına sahip oldukları, suda dalış etkinlik türüne katılanların balon, kampçılık ve rafting etkinlik türüne katılanlardan daha yüksek geri bildirim davranışına sahip olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Kırsal rekreasyon faaliyetlerine katılan bireyler hakkında detaylı bilgiye erişilmeli ve etkinliklere katılım nedenlerinin üzerinde durulması gerektiği düşünülmektedir.

Responsible Behavior Analysis of Rural Recreation Participants From A Sustainability Perspective

Year 2025, Volume: 22 Issue: 1, 192 - 211, 27.03.2025

Abstract

The study was prepared with the aim of analyzing the responsible behaviors of visitors participating in rural recreation activities within the scope of the sustainability paradigm in the activity processes, including the natural, cultural and economic environment. The population of the study consists of individuals participating in rural recreation activities. The sample of the study consists of 483 individuals participating in rural recreation activities. In the study, it was determined that those who participated in rafting activity type had high research behavior, and those who participated in water diving and paragliding activity types had high natural resource behavior. It was determined that those who participated in offroad activity type had higher local resource behavior, and those who participated in water diving activity type had higher feedback behavior than those who participated in ballooning, camping and rafting activity type. It is thought that detailed information about individuals participating in rural recreation activities should be accessed and the reasons for participation in activities should be emphasized
