| 研究開始時の研究の概要 |
Driven by theoretical, social and environmental concerns, this research conducted between Japan and Rwanda highlights the importance of questioning the social responsibility of tourists toward local communities in times of crises, in view of the inner psychological processes which shape communities toward behavior tourists in a post-disaster scenario. As such, it investigates (1) the perceptions that local communities may hold about the decisions tourists make during major crises at the destination, and (2) how these perceptions influence host-guest relations in a post-disaster scenario.

| 研究実績の概要 |
During Phase 1 of the research project, Perceived Destination Exit (PDX) was introduced to explore the psychological processes influencing communities' post-disaster behavior towards visitors. Findings indicate that PDX significantly shapes residents' attitudes, with tourists' willingness or refusal to remain and support local communities during crises being key determinants. PDX's psychological mechanisms are influenced by perceived safety, emotional attachment, and sense of duty, which determine tourists' willingness to stay and support during crises.
Understanding these dynamics enables stakeholders to develop strategies fostering positive relationships between tourists and local communities, even during crises. These insights promote resilient and sustainable tourism practices, highlighting tourists' ethical responsibilities. Tourists who stay and support local communities during crises foster goodwill, trust, and mutual respect, enhancing community resilience and sustainability. This allows policymakers to craft strategies encouraging responsible tourism, benefiting both tourists and host communities. Phase 1 results will be published by December 2024, sharing insights with the academic community and stakeholders in tourism and crisis management.

2: おおむね順調に進展している
理由
The project is progressing as planned with no significant delays. All milestones for Phase 1 have been successfully met, and preparations for Phase 2 are on track. Given the current status, Phase 2 is expected to start on schedule in July 2024. The timely completion of Phase 1 activities and the readiness for the next phase demonstrate that the project is moving forward smoothly and efficiently. Therefore, I can confidently attest that the project is progressing rather smoothly, with expectations for continued success in the upcoming phases.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
Phase 2 - Scale Development (July 2024 - April 2025): This phase will operationalize the Perceived Destination Exit (PDX) concept by developing and validating a psychometrically sound construct. Using a mixed-methods approach, qualitative research will generate items for the PDX scale through interviews with Japanese and foreign nationals in Japan and Rwandans from the 1994 genocide. Identified themes and items will be supplemented by literature and assessed by experts. A structured questionnaire will be developed, translated into Japanese, and administered to 1,000 respondents. Scale refinement will ensure internal consistency and validity.
Phase 3 - Empirical Investigation (July 2025 - September 2026): This phase will use quantitative methods, supported by Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), to assess the effects of PDX on Attitudes towards Tourists (ATT), residents' Pro-Tourism Behavior (PTB), and Host-Tourist Interactions (HTI) in Japan and Rwanda. The PDX scale will be cross-validated using datasets from 830 Japanese and 830 Rwandan respondents. Analyses will provide insights into how tourists' crisis responses affect host-guest relationships and community resilience. The research will develop strategies encouraging responsible tourism, benefiting both tourists and host communities.
