Recently, in the field of destination management in tourism, there is a growing trend towards encouraging individuals to engage in environmentally supportive behaviors. In this study, the dimensions of visitors' environmental engagement (affection, activation, and cognitive processing) are considered as mediating roles in the relationship between perceived environmental quality and pro-environmental behavior, forming a model. Additionally, the moderating role of visitor type (sport and non-sport) in these relationships has examined. The research population consisted of visitors to a nature-based public park in Sari, Mazandaran Province. Data from 394 questionnaires were analyzed using structural equation modeling. The results confirm the mediating role of cognitive processing (t=3.55, β=0.107) and disconfirm the mediating roles of affection (t=1.03, β=0.048) and activation (t=0.006, β=0). It has also been identified that there is no significant difference between sport and non-sport visitors in the relationship between perceived environmental quality and pro-environmental behavior due to environmental engagement dimensions.

This study was conducted on the Minab-Tiab Wetland in Hormozgan province to evaluate the impacts of nature tourism on different components of the wetland. The study used a modified RIAM method and sustainable development model to evaluate four environments of the wetland, including physicochemical, biological-ecological, sociological-cultural, and economic-operational components. The results showed that nature tourism would have a slight negative impact on the physicochemical environment and a moderate negative impact on the biological-ecological environment. On the other hand, it would have a major positive impact on the sociological-cultural and economic-operational environments. However, the study also revealed that the physicochemical and biological-ecological environments were not very stable, while the sociological-cultural and economic-operational environments were highly stable. In Minab-Tiab Wetland, nature tourism is associated with positive effects on the sociological-cultural and economic-operational components of the environment, but it can also have a negative impact on environmental sustainability.

the current research is of a mixed type, descriptive-analytical, and in the form of cross-sectional studies. In the first step of the research, through in-depth semi-structured interviews, the indicators influencing the return of tourists to the Inche Barun border market were identified and classified, and in the second step, a conceptual research model was designed and the influence-dependence matrix was extracted using interpretive structural modeling. . The statistical population of the research included customers, travelers, business owners in the Border market Inche Barun, and experts and academic specialists who, to extract codes and discover indicators affecting the return of tourists, using a random sampling method until reaching theoretical saturation, a total of 21 interviews. carried out and implemented in MAXQDA20 software and analyzed using the content analysis method. The results showed that the conceptual model of tourist return can lead to an increase in the return rate of tourists.

Responsible tourism has been identified as an effective strategy for achieving sustainable development goals, reducing poverty, and improving the quality of life for residents in rural areas. However, the different aspects of responsible tourism may not have uniform effects on different aspects of quality of life, which has been a topic receiving limited attention in previous research. Therefore, the present study aims to investigate how the various dimensions of responsible tourism affect different aspects of the quality of life of residents in tourist destinations in the rural areas of Khorramabad County, with a sample size of 20,750. A sample size of 254 individuals was determined using power analysis for linear regression with three independent variables. Data collection was carried out using a researcher-made questionnaire. The findings revealed that the three dimensions of responsible tourism have different effects on various aspects of the quality of life of residents in tourism destinations.
