Study of tourism attitudes in Tokaj-Hegyalja based on quality criteria in 2024.
Abstract
A recurring issue in research is identifying the factors that influence local residents' attitudes toward tourism. Our research question was whether the age of respondents in the Tokaj-Hegyalja region influences their perception of the economic, social, and environmental impacts of tourism—measured against qualitative criteria. Our hypothesis—that "older and younger people assess the economic, social, and environmental impacts of tourism on their settlement in the same way"—was confirmed during the analysis of our questionnaire-based research.
