| dc.description.abstract | The identification of the dimensions that impact on the creation of memorable tourism experiences is a subject of the utmost importance, so that the touristic offering can be adjusted to the needs of the visitants. This research main goal is to identifying the dimensions of the memorable tourism experiences of the international students of the Instituto PolitƩcnico de BraganƧa (IPB) that visit the city of Porto. It will allow an analysis on how the visitors create their memorable tourism experiences. An online inquiry was applied, structured in tree parts in order to answer to three specific goals of the research: i) analyse the profile of the international students of the IPB; ii) identify the dimensions of the memorable tourism experiences of the international students of the IPB; iii) analyse the behaviour of the international students of the IPB. The instrument of data collection was made available in two languages, Portuguese and English, and it was applied during the months of December 2020 and January 2021. Seven dimensions were evaluated (hedonism; renovation; novelty; social interaction; knowledge; meaning; involvement) on a sevenpoint Likert agreement scale. The results revealed that the dimensions that contribute the most to the creation of memorable tourism experiences were hedonism, renovation, novelty and involvement. Examples of these dimensions are the image of the city, the attractions the city possesses, local residents, the fact that they feel well during the trip or the fact that they don't forget the experience they had. | pt_PT |
| dc.description.abstract | Uma experiĆŖncia pode ser caracterizada como um fluxo constante de pensamentos e sentimentos que sucedem durante os momentos de consciĆŖncia em relaĆ§Ć£o aos elementos da experiĆŖncia (Walls, 2011). Nos Ćŗltimos anos, o estudo das experiĆŖncias memorĆ”veis de turismo (EMT) tornou-se importante como resultado do crescimento extraordinĆ”rio da competitividade dos destinos. Assim, para se posicionarem no mercado do turismo internacional, os gestores de destino devem proporcionar aos visitantes experiĆŖncias verdadeiramente memorĆ”veis (Ritchie & Crouch, 2003). A identificaĆ§Ć£o bem-sucedida das dimensƵes que fazem parte da criaĆ§Ć£o das EMT Ć© essencial para auxiliar os gestores de destino nos seus esforƧos para aumentar a probabilidade dos seus visitantes percecionarem uma EMT enquanto viajam pelo destino. A cidade do Porto foi considerada em 2001 a Capital Europeia da Cultura, em 2012 eleita como Melhor Destino Europeu e em 2020 o Melhor Destino City Break da Europa. Com o intuito dos gestores do destino melhorarem a oferta existente e criarem produtos/serviƧos que visem alcanƧar as dimensƵes das EMT, desenvolveu-se o presente estudo para identificar as dimensƵes das experiĆŖncias memorĆ”veis de turismo que mais impactam os visitantes do Porto, especificamente os estudantes internacionais do Instituto PolitĆ©cnico de BraganƧa (IPB). | pt_PT |
