摘要
The environmentally responsible behaviour (ERB) facilitates the sustainability of tourism destinations. This study aims to identify the key impact factors to promote visitors' ERB in urban park and examine the impact mechanism. A total of 567 visitors were surveyed in Beijing's Yuyuantan Urban Park. Structural equation modelling results indicate that personality traits are the most important factors that affect visitors' ERB, while the effect of how satisfaction with interpretive services plays upon visitors' ERB using place attachment as a mediator. Openness traits positively affect satisfaction with experiential services and general behaviour. Additionally, implications in urban park management are provided.
