Review of Antecedents of Tourists’ Pro-Environmental Behavior: Based on Core Chinese and English Databases

Abstract

Existing literature reviews on tourists’ pro-environmental behavior (PEB) mostly rely on English databases, overlooking a significant amount of relevant research in Chinese databases. So, this research conducts a literature search from Web of Science (WOS) and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI). I follow the PRISMA procedure to get 175 articles for review and category the antecedents of tourists’ PEB into four main groups: inherent factors, rational factors, emotional factors, and situational factors. Lastly, I suggest some possible directions for future research.
