Abstract

Place attachment is becoming more closely associated with the sustainable development of tourism destinations as tourists increasingly seek quality, unique, and authentic experiences. Numerous empirical studies have explored the antecedents and outcomes of tourist place attachment. However, few studies have reviewed the literature systematically. A meta-analysis of the antecedents and outcomes of tourist place attachment based on 228 empirical studies was conducted. The results show that destination environment, tourist psychology, experience and involvement, and place perception and evaluation can influence place attachment. Place attachment can affect tourist attitudes and behaviors. All antecedents and outcomes included were positively associated with place attachment, but there were variations in the overall associations.
