Abstract

Individuals’ destination images are constantly updated through their exposure to various stimuli sent from diverse information sources11Information Sources: ISs. widely accessible in the modern society. Such dynamics of destination image formation22Dynamics of Destination Image Formation: DDIF. is better explained with the iterative process of a concept learning framework integrated into the destination image models. DDIF implies that individuals having been exposed to similar stimuli in the iterative image formation process have a higher likelihood of developing a similar mental representation33Mental Representation: MR.. Accordingly, this study employs an innovative methodological framework to extract patterns of MR of destinations held by groups of individuals (segments) and to compare segment-specific patterns of MR with their relations to willingness to visit44Willingness to Visit: W2V. and to ISs. The results demonstrate that what segments associate with a destination relates to their W2V, and segments having rich and positive associations with a destination accessed a wider range of ISs to learn about the destination.
