Moreover, we introduce the behavioural support, a concept that denotes a higher level of involvement and engagement of residents with their communities in comparison with the traditional attitudinal support. Our results indicate: (1) the residents' perception of the positive economic and cultural impacts of tourism are the main variables influencing their attitudes towards tourism and tourists; and (2) both types of attitudes influence on behavioural support for tourism in host communities.}, publisher = {Taylor & Francis}, publisher = {Journal of Travel & Tourism Marketing, 35:2, 2018, 231-243}, title = {Residents' attitudes and behavioural support for tourism in host communities}, author = {San Martín Gutiérrez, Héctor and García de los Salmones, María del Mar and Herrero Crespo, Angel}, }
