Abstract
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.
