Psychological factors affecting memorable tourism experiences

This study tries to explore psychological components of memorable tourist experience (MTE) that are most likely to recall tourists’ memories. Urban residents from three representative cities in China were selected as research samples, and totally 301 usable questionnaires were used for data analysis. The results showed that the recollection of MTE was positively affected by novelty, involvement and social interaction. It was also suggested that hedonism and novelty had positive effects on the vividness of MTEs significantly. Additionally, in the context of Chinese culture, two new psychological factors, social interaction and perceived serendipity, resulted in different effects on the MTE.

居民收入差距的财政调节:绩效测度与因素分析——基于辽宁城镇居民视角的分析

采用统计年鉴权威数据,运用统计与计量研究方法,对辽宁城镇居民收入差距的财政管理绩效进行测度与分析。研究表明2002年以来辽宁城镇居民收入差距未能得到有效缓解和控制,财政管理手段对城镇居民收入差距调节低效,甚至存在负效应;辽宁城镇居民收入差距的静态来源和动态趋势存在各自特征,其中财产性收入的影响与调控值得关注,经营性收入亟待重视。最后依据测度结论及辽宁经济社会发展实际,提出改善辽宁居民收入结构的政策取向和对策建议。     

长三角地区影响FDI流入因素的实证研究

本文以邓宁的区位优势理论为基础,选择劳动力工资水平、市场容量、基础设施、产业结构、制度变迁和进出口商品总值等关键变量,利用江苏省、上海市和浙江省的面板数据对这些变量与FDI的流入量之间的关系进行了实证分析,并简要推断了FDI的类型,得出了具有一定解释力的结论。     

山东省平邑石膏矿沉积特征及开发利用探讨

平邑石膏矿主要分布于第三系卞桥组地层中,为陆相湖泊沉积型。该矿区储量大,品质好。但开发中存在缺乏统一规划,资源浪费,地质灾害突出等问题;必须加强地矿行政管理,提高对矿产资源的监管力度,搞好地质灾害的防治,促进资源开发与地质环境的协调发展。     

城乡结合部发育阶段划分与土地管理策略——以重庆市为例

依据重庆市2013年建成区现状、行政区划和城乡总体规划,运用空间分析方法对重庆市城乡结合部发育阶段进行划分,并在调研基础上指出不同发育阶段存在的土地问题和完善策略。研究表明:重庆市低速、中速、快速和高度城市化乡镇分别占29.55%、27.27%、31.82%和11.36%;城乡结合部不同阶段乡镇土地问题存在明显差异,但它们之间具有内在关联性;低速和中速城市化乡镇的土地问题主要围绕"土地监管",而后两类乡镇主要围绕"土地征用";城乡结合部土地管理应注重协调远期利益与近期利益的关系、历史遗留问题与未来趋势把握的关系和城市拓展与培育城郊发展的关系。     

城市交通与旅游协调发展定量评价——以大连市为例

城市交通和城市旅游之间互相拉动同时也互相限制,二者相互影响.实现二者高质量协调是实现城市旅游可持续发展的必由之路.因此,城市交通和旅游系统之间协调发展研究对二者共同发展具有一定的导向作用.文章以大连市为例,首次通过模糊数学建立评价体系,探究两系统间发展模式及其演变关系,为妥善处理交通和旅游的发展关系提供借鉴性参考.     

The promise of creative/participatory mapping practices for sport and leisure research

This paper provides an introduction to the concept of creative participatory mapping of human–environment relations. It is identified that within human geography, artistic practice and urban design, biomapping and similar community mapping tools and methodologies are increasingly being embraced. However, within sports and leisure research the concept has yet to gain academic attention. Consequently, this paper provides a basis for thinking about how researchers and research participants in the fields of sport and leisure research might benefit if mapping human–environment relations was to be embraced and integrated into research design practices. Referencing recent turns to studying space and affect within sport and leisure studies, mapping is argued to offer innovative methodological opportunities for studying how people relate to and understand the urban environments in which they practice physical activity and leisure forms of embodiment. The paper concludes by arguing that, along with offering up new avenues for conceptual research, mapping human–environment relations, if readily embraced, can go a long way to fostering community engagement in: the identification of (un)safe urban routes for sport/leisure practice (e.g. running, cycling), the development and site identification of health/physical activity initiatives and the design of urban landscapes of sport/leisure.     

Research agenda for low-carbon mobility: Issues for New World cities

ABSTRACT

Low-carbon mobility (LCM) features strongly in debates about the sustainability of cities and their resilience in the face of demographic, economic, and climate change. Transport is a major source of carbon emissions and there are indications that these continue to increase, despite the considerable recent advances in vehicle, engine, and fuel technologies. Reducing carbon emissions from transport may become more difficult, not easier. A particular issue relates to the New World cities, typified by those of North America and Australasia, which largely developed from the latter half of the nineteenth century onward and whose transportation systems were largely based around private vehicle ownership and usage. These cities are typically composed of low-density, dispersed suburbs, which are highly car dependent and resource and carbon emission intensive. This article develops a research agenda directed at determining and testing policy and planning measures relevant to the quest for low carbon mobility in New World cities. It suggests a rich agenda for essential research on LCM. Much of this agenda falls within the realm of the integration of transport and land use, with attention to urban design details to enhance the perceptions of and opportunities to use low carbon transport alternatives. Research topics identified for LCM research include (1) urban design and land use–transport integration (LUTI), (2) low carbon mobility policies directed at achieving widespread behavior change, (3) opportunities for new technology and its application, including requirements for systems and infrastructure, and (4) analysis and tools for informed decision making, including modeling, measurement, visualization, and especially assessment.
