Abstract:

Based on the 560 tourism projects funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) during the period of 2000-2019, this paper conducts a statistical analysis on the spatial-temporal distribution, institution, and the principle investigator of the projects. A classification system for tourism research questions is also established. By tracking the changes in research topics, this paper summarizes the development trend of China's tourism research. Results show that: during 2000-2019, the funding for projects in the field of tourism had continued to grow, showing an overall trend of slow growth, rapid growth, then increased significantly, and finally reached a stable status. The spatial distribution of the projects showed a pattern of "high in the east and low in the west". The institutions get funded were apparently concentrated, while the principle investigators were scattered distributed. Regarding research topics evolution, interests on tourism flow, tourism industry development, and tourism traffic had gradually decreased. In contrast, research on the topics of the behavior and perception of tourists, social and cultural influence of tourism, space of tourism destinations, protection and development of typical tourism sites, and the tourism ecological environment had increased significantly. Finally, the characteristics of the annual changes in hotspot areas of tourism were summarized. This paper updates and expands the previous research in this field, and may provide insights for tourism scholars in topic selection and project application.

摘要:

以国家自然科学基金2000—2019年资助的560项旅游类课题为数据来源,对课题立项的时空分布、承担单位、负责人等进行统计分析,构建由6个主类和15个亚类组成的旅游地理问题分类体系,运用词频统计和内容分析法,总结我国旅游地理研究格局和热点发展态势。研究发现:2000年至2019年间,自然基金委对旅游类课题的资助力度不断加强,总体呈先缓慢、后迅速增长、再大幅提升后保持平稳发展的态势,资助空间分布呈“东高西低”的特点,课题依托单位明显优势集中,课题承担人则呈离散分布;旅游流、旅游产业发展、旅游交通等研究主题热度逐渐减弱,旅游者行为和感知、旅游的社会文化影响、旅游地空间、典型旅游地保护和开发、旅游生态环境等主题热度明显上升,在此基础上对各热点主题历年变化特征和规律进行归纳总结。本文更新和拓展了以往同类研究发现,对旅游学者进行研究选题和课题申报有参考和指导意义。
