    Open AccessChenggang Hua, Edward J Jordan et al.ARTICLETravel Research Bulletin2026References: 190

Grounded in a transformative paradigm, the research uses a systematic literature review guided by PRISMA and critical content analysis. Findings reveal that standardized service models often marginalize individuals with disabilities through exclusionary practices at social, organizati…

  • Buttressing social return’s influence on travel behaviour

    B Bynum Boley, Edward J Jordan et al.ARTICLECurrent Issues in Tourism2023

    With peer perceptions of vacation pictures on social media becoming firmly entrenched into the tourist psyche and the destination selection process, this paper buttresses the burgeoning research on social return’s influence on travel behaviour through additional theoretical development and empirical investigation. The paper assesses the cross-cultural construct and predictive validity of the Social Return Scale across the United States of America…

  • Do residents differentiate between the impacts of tourism, cruise tourism, and Airbnb tourism

    Edward J Jordan, Julio Cesar Vieira et al.ARTICLEJournal of Sustainable Tourism2023

    Tourism impacts the quality of life of host community residents in myriad ways. Most research seeking to understand those impacts has either focused on tourism in general or a single specific type of tourism. Little is understood about how residents attribute perceived impacts to different forms of tourism when they are present in the same community. We surveyed 995 residents of the island of São Miguel in the Azores archipelago to examine percep…

  • A comparison of tourism-related stressors experienced by residents of three island destinations

    Xing Yao, Edward J Jordan et al.ARTICLETourism Geographies2023Cited by: 1References: 82

    Resident stress has emerged as a problem in many tourism communities. However, little is known about differences in resident stress across diverse destinations. This research gap is addressed by comparing stressors experienced by residents of three global island destinations of O’ahu, Hawaii, U.S., Falmouth, Jamaica, and São Miguel, Azores, Portugal. These three island tourism destinations have diverse tourism types and differing levels of touris…

  • Expanding the Curriculum in a School of Public Health

    Open AccessEdward J Jordan, Sarah J Young et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2021

    Public health education has long been concentrated in a core set of public health disciplines such as epidemiology, biostatistics, and environmental health. Despite leaps forward in our understanding of the myriad influences on public health, little has changed in the organization of our educational systems. One issue brought to the forefront of public consciousness by the COVID-19 pandemic is the importance of leisure experiences, such as nature…

  • Reversed polarity items in tourism scales: Best practice or dimensional pitfall

    B Bynum Boley, Edward J Jordan et al.ARTICLECurrent Issues in Tourism2021

    Disciplines such as marketing and education have begun to question the benefits of incorporating reverse polarity items (e.g. a mixture of negatively and positively worded items) into multi-item scales due to such items’ degradation of scale dimensionality. The tourism literature, however, has yet to critique this practice due to the commonly held belief that reverse polarity items reduce acquiescence bias. With a limited critique of its practice…

  • Mortality salience and meaning in life for residents visiting dark tourism sites

    Girish Prayag, Dorina-Maria Buda et al.ARTICLEJournal of Sustainable Tourism2021

    Reflections on meanings of life and death are rarely comfortable or linear, and can be triggered by crises and disasters. This study explores the meanings of dark tourism sites for residents, including their visitation motives, and subsequent reflections on death and life. Semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted with 37 residents of Christchurch in Aotearoa New Zealand, following the Canterbury earthquakes of 2010 and 2011. Our finding…

  • Social exclusion and conflict in a rural tourism community: A case study from Likeng Village, China

    Open AccessHua Guo, Edward J JordanARTICLETourist Studies2021Cited by: 6References: 8

    Social exclusion is a dynamic process in which an individual or a group becomes isolated from an organization or community and deprived of their due rights and entitlements. This study analyzed a case of social exclusion and tourism conflict in Likeng village, Wuyuan, a rural Chinese community that is economically reliant on the tourism industry. Thematic analysis of interviews with 15 Likeng villagers across two time periods (2010 and 2016) reve…
