To explore and describe the complex issues and factors related to participation in tourism as perceived by people with disabilities in Hong Kong.
Naturalistic inquiry using key informant interviews and focus groups with 86 people with disabilities. Interviews were transcribed, translated and coded to develop themes and relationships. Triangulation of three investigators from different backgrounds occurred.
The Process of Becoming Travel Active emerged as a six-stage process, intricately related to the personal/disability context and the environmental/travel context. Personal and environmental factors contribute to the six-stage model explaining the complex interplay between tourism, disability and environmental context.
Understanding the complexity provides insight into ways to increase active participation in tourism. Health, tourism and disability sectors have a role to play in the development of accessible tourism.
探讨并描述香港残疾人士所感知的与参与旅游相关的复杂问题和因素。
采用自然主义探究法,对86名残疾人士进行关键 informant 访谈和焦点小组讨论。访谈内容被转录、翻译并编码,以形成主题和关系。来自不同背景的三名研究人员进行了三角互证。
“成为积极旅行者的过程”呈现为一个六阶段过程,与个人/残疾背景以及环境/旅行背景错综复杂地相关。个人和环境因素促成了这个六阶段模型,该模型解释了旅游、残疾和环境背景之间的复杂相互作用。
理解这种复杂性有助于深入了解增加积极参与旅游的方法。健康、旅游和残疾领域在无障碍旅游的发展中都可发挥作用。
