Abstract

Although the number of studies on sport tourism has increased in recent years, there is a shortage of systematic reviews. This study meta-analytically investigated 40 correlation matrices on the determinants that affect the decision-making of sport tourists from the articles published in sport and tourism journals. By conducting a comprehensive meta-analysis, this paper revealed that the decision-making determinants of sport tourists include nostalgia, attitude, motivation, behavioural intention, event quality, destination image, tourist satisfaction, perceived value, future intention, destination loyalty, and place attachment. The correlations among these determinants were integrated into a framework with 16 hypotheses tested. This paper is the first meta-analysis of the determinants that affect the decision-making of sport tourists, thus providing implications for future research and sport tourism marketing and planning.
