15 1. LITERATURE REVIEW AND RESEARCH QUESTIONS 2. METHODOLOGY 4. CONCLUSIONS, LIMITATIONS AND FUTURE RESEARCH
16 4. CONCLUSIONS, LIMITATIONS AND FUTURE RESEARCH Responsible tourist seems to be in search of experiences that allow them to explore the untouched, the unexposed and the real life rooted in the host destination These experiences, as reported by the interviewees, are extraordinary and embedded of emotions and, furthermore, bring people that live them to think that something of important and worthy have occurred in their life. The aim of the study was to contribute to a deeply understanding of the responsible tourism phenomenon using a demand-side approach and carrying out an empirical investigation on a sample of Italian responsible tourists. 16
17 4. CONCLUSIONS, LIMITATIONS AND FUTURE RESEARCH Absolute responsible tourist, although is not considered as perfect responsible tourist because it has not obtain the maximum main (9 points) in all three analyzed factors, is the group more sensible toward the responsible tourism specially in the case of the environment. This group is female with middle age, whose occupation is executive/manager with medium/high salary. Decreasing in mean the degree of positive attitude toward responsible tourism, the motivated responsible tourist, although it is a group with less number of percentage that intentional responsible tourist segment, shows high contribution and responsibility to the community and, specially, towards environment. It is composed especially by female, older than first analyzed group, with University studies and self-employed (although high percentage of unemployed), and with low incomes. With less degree of positive perception toward responsible tourism, we have obtained the intentional responsible tourists group characterized because they are older with secondary school, employed and with medium salary. Skeptical responsible tourist group is composed especially by young men, students, singles, and high income. It shows indecisive opinion towards responsible tourism. 17
18 4. CONCLUSIONS, LIMITATIONS AND FUTURE RESEARCH MANAGERIAL IMPLICATION It would be necessary to invest more and better in social, environmental and marketing communication activities to young people and with less studies and salary in order to spread, on the one hand, the values of responsibility and sobriety in the tourist community (demand and offer) and, on the other hand, the information about the existence of responsible and sustainable tourist product. MAIN LIMITATION It is focused on a sample of responsible tourists from one just country (Italy). FUTURE RESEARCH Opportunity to repeat the study internationally in order to analyze if responsible tourists of different nationality express a different degree of responsibility and motivations. It could be interesting to focus future researches on the different factors. 18
