Turizm, kırsal bölgelerin ekonomik ve sosyal açıdan kalkınmasında önemli bir role sahiptir. Kırsal alanlarda turizmi sürdürülebilirlik anlayışıyla geliştirmek için yerel halkın tutum ve davranışlarını anlamak çok önemlidir. Bu yüzden bu çalışmada yer bağlılığı, turizmin algılanan olumlu-olumsuz etkileri ve yerel halkın turizm gelişimine destek olma tutumları arasındaki ilişkiler incelenmiştir. Araştırma evrenini Mordoğan’da ikamet eden yerel halk oluşturmaktadır. Araştırma verileri kolayda örnekleme yöntemi ile Ekim 2019 döneminde Mordoğan’da ikamet eden 356 kişiden elde edilmiştir. Araştırma hipotezleri yapısal eşitlik modeli ile test edilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda yer bağlılığının turizm gelişimine destek olma ve turizmin algılanan olumlu etkileri üzerinde olumlu, turizmin algılanan olumsuz etkileri üzerinde olumsuz etkisinin olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca yerel halkın turizm gelişimine destek olma üzerinde, turizmin algılanan olumlu etkilerinin pozitif, turizmin algılanan olumsuz etkilerinin negatif yönde etkilerinin olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır.
