Dolphin-human Interaction
This paper reports on a comparison of the management and interpretation practices of two differing dolphin-human interaction sites in Queensland. The major objectives of the pilot study were to compare the management and dolphin-human interaction practices and to measure the post-experience effectiveness of the interpretation programs upon self-reported pro-environmental attitudes, beliefs, intended behaviours and intended actions of participants…
Structural factors and their influence on community decision makers regarding tourism development
This paper briefly explores the numerous structural mechanisms, which have been utilized in the attempt to influence, and control tourism oriented developments and decision makers in the development process. The primary aim has often been to effectively influence, manage and facilitate appropriate development in regions affected by tourism. Various structural influences may include directives which guide potential decisions (e.g., state/federal p…
Community tourism development scenarios and their use in tourism research
Scenarios have been utilised to a limited degree in tourism and in a number of areas such as in development, sustainability studies, and political decision making. The use of scenarios has primarily concentrated on evaluating people's attitudes and decision processes, as predictions toward perceived future situations for tourism planning, and as a tool in exploratory research. In a recent study conducted in Eastern Australian coastal regions, a s…

A case study of Earthwatch Australia and its participants is presented against a conceptual backdrop of ecotourism and ecotourists, who are said to be seeking enjoyment of some relatively undisturbed phenomenon of nature. The "true" ecotourist, it is proposed, is not satisfied with just a natural experience, but wants to be environmentally responsible, expects to interact and engage with the natural environment, and is prepared to be physically a…
