The Influence of Restorative Environment of Rural Sojourner on Sojourner's Emotional Experience and Behavioral Intention

The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of restorative environment in rural sojourns on sojourners' emotional experience and behavioral intention.Based on the theory of "cognitive-emotion-behavior", a model of the relationship between restorative environment, sojourners' emotions and behavioral intentions was established, and the data of emotional responses and behavioral tendencies of sojourners from different backgrounds in rural environment were collected by means of questionnaire survey to test the relevant hypotheses.The results show that: (1) the factors of natural environment, man-made environment and social environment in rural sojourns all have significant effects on the emotional experience and behavioral intention of sojourners, and the factors of natural environment are more significant.(2) Restorative environmental perception factors can indirectly influence sojourners' behavioral intention through the mediating effect of sojourners' emotional experience.(3) sojourners' emotional experience significantly affects tourists' behavioral intention.The research shows that the restorative environment of rural sojourns plays an important role in promoting sojourners' mental health and positive tourism behavior.This study provides a theoretical basis for the development of rural tourism, and provides practical guidance for how to optimize the environmental design of rural hostel.
