Ancak literatürdebu sürücülerin dokuz estetik, eğlence, kaçış, eğitim, referans, işgören, özdeğer/imaj, ekonomik tanesinin önemsendiği dikkat çekmektedir.Bu bağlamda, bu çalışmanın amacı rekabetin yoğun yaşandığı turizm sektöründe deneyimsel değer yaklaşımı kapsamında konaklama işletmelerine yönelik bir deneyimsel değer ölçüm aracı geliştirmektir. Ampirik uygulamaya veri sağlayabilmek ve araştırmanın amacına ulaşabilmek için önerilen model, Türkiye’de turizm sektörü bazında incelenmiştir. Muğla Bölgesinde faaliyet gösteren dört ve beş yıldızlı konaklama işletmelerinde yapılan bu çalışmada, literatürdebelirtilen dokuz sürücüden yedi sürücü, bağımlı değişkene etki eden kritik deneyimsel değer sürücüleri olarak ortaya çıkmıştır.
