Study on the Impact of Environmental Perception of Tourism Community Residents on Environmentally Responsible Behavior Based on Environmental Justice:A Case Study of the Gateway Communities of Huangshan Scenic Area
The environmentally responsible behavior of residents in tourist places is of great significance to the sustainable development of tourism destinations.The paper constructs a model to measure the environmentally re-sponsible behavior of communities in tourist places with six variables,including tourism environmental impact,environmental justice and environmentally responsible behavior and etc,and uses partial least squares structural equation modeling(PLS-SEM)to empirically test the study on residents of four gateway communities in Huang-shan scenic area.The results show that:①On the whole,natural environment perception has a positive effect on interactive justice and environmentally responsible behavior;living environment perception has a positive effect on environmental justice;and environmental justice has a positive effect on environmentally responsible behavior.Natural environment perception has insignificant positive effects on distributive justice and procedural justice,and living environment perception has insignificant positive effects on environmentally responsible behavior.②Natu-ral environment perception has the greatest impact on environmentally responsible behavior,followed by proce-dural justice,distributive justice,and interactive justice.③The path relationship between the variables of the four gateway communities was compared and studied,and the model assumed that the relationship was different in the four gateway communities.The mean method was used to calculate and compare the scores of the four gateway communities in various dimensions and indicators,among which the south gateway town Tangkou had the highest overall score,the north gateway town Gengcheng ranked second,while the west gateway town Jiao Village had a lower overall score,and the east gateway town Tanjiaqiao had the lowest overall score.
