| Popis: | Posljednje dvije godine pandemija koronavirusa nametnula je brojne prepreke uobičajenim načinima turističkih putovanja. Jenjavanjem pandemije uklonjen je dio objektivnih restrikcija, no u mnogih je pojedinaca i dalje prisutan strah, u literaturi poznat pod nazivima poput „pandemijska/COVID putna anksioznost/strah/fobija“. U ovom je radu temeljno istraživačko pitanje ispitati prediktore pandemijske putne anksioznosti, njezine veze s ponašanjem domaćih turista tijekom pandemije i s namjerama budućih turističkih putovanja. Kao polazišni konceptualni model korištena je Teorija planiranog ponašanja. Metodom analize traga testiran je osnovni i nekoliko alternativnih modela, na uzorku od 1102 hrvatskih turista. Rezultati su pokazali značajne glavne efekte, pri čemu su varijable modela objasnile 23 % putnog ponašanja tijekom pandemije, te 20 % namjera inozemnih putovanja. Kako je pandemija COVID-19 još uvijek aktualna, a u međuvremenu su se pojavile i nove globalne ugroze (poput rata i ekonomske krize), istraživanje putne anksioznosti ostaje relevantna tema istraživačima i praktičarima na području turizma. Over the past two years, the coronavirus pandemic has imposed numerous obstacles to the usual mode of tourist travel. With the abatement of the pandemic, some of the objective restrictions have been removed, but the fear is still present in many people and is known in the literature by terms such as pandemic/COVID travel anxiety/fear/phobia. In this paper, the fundamental research question was to examine the predictors of pandemic travel anxiety and its relationship with the behavior of domestic tourists during the pandemic, as well as with the intentions of future tourist trips. The Theory of Planned Behavior was used as the starting conceptual model. Using the path analysis method, the basic and several alternative models were tested on a sample of 1102 Croatian tourists. The results showed significant main effects, whereby variable models explained 23% of travel behavior during the pandemic, and 20% of foreign travel intentions. As the COVID-19 pandemic is still present, and new global threats have emerged in the meantime (such as war and economic crisis), research on travel anxiety remains a relevant topic for researchers and practitioners in the field of tourism. |
