The Bells Within the Bell Curve
In the present research, Stanley Plog's (1974) Psychocentrism—Allocentrism Visitation Model is reimagined. The authors decompose Plog's original model and identify five smaller bell-shaped curves constituting five tourist personas within the normal distribution of tourist flow that depicts Plog's model. The study also finds that while allocentric tourists largely prefer nascent destinations, they also regain a strong affinity for destinations tha…
The internal structure of destination visitation model and implications for image management

Female Nudity in Advertisements, Arousal and Response
This study extended a 1990 report of LaTour, Pitts, and Snook-Luther by further analysis. Relationships between the key dimensions of High Activation (tension) and General Activation (energy) and ratings of attitude toward the advertisement were analyzed in a test of two hypothetical models performed on ratings by 134 undergraduate business students who responded to the paper-and-pencil tests which operationalized the constructs. In addition, att…
