Effect of Perceived Destination Restorative Qualities on Tourist Well-Being Based on fsQCA
Existing research concerning the relationships between perceived destination restorative qualities(PDRQs)and tourist well-being mainly adopts traditional quantitative methods such as linear regression and structural equation model,and lacks an in-depth discussion on its internal complexity.Anchored in the special period of COVID-19 epidemic prevention and control,this paper takes Qingdao as the research site,establishes a causal-effect model of tourist well-being(hedonic and eudaemonic well-being)by using fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis(fsQCA),and incorporates the variable of"crowding perception"to further explore the configuration conditions of tourist well-being.It is found as follows.① The"fascination"dimension achieved the highest consistency among six influencing factors on tourists'hedonic well-being and eudaemonic well-being,demonstrating that it has an important explanatory power to the formation of tourist well-being.However,none of factors alone was able to create the necessary conditions for tourist well-being.② Nine combinations re-lated to high-level of hedonic and eudaemonic well-being are revealed.The core conditions of hedonic well-being and eudae-monic well-being both involve the"mentally away"dimension,indicating that a strong sense of"mentally away"can serve as an important basis for shaping a high-level of well-being for tourists.③ The configurations of tourists'hedonic well-being and eudaemonic well-being are significantly heterogeneous.Compared with hedonic well-being,the core conditions in the configurations of eudaemonic well-being are more complexed.④ For tourists'hedonic well-being and eudaemonic well-be-ing,the combination with the highest consistency"definitely does not include"the high-level of crowding perception.This paper not only deepens the understanding of formation mechanism of tourist well-being,but also provides practical enlight-enment for destination marketing and management.
