초록

전 세계를 비롯해 우리나라에서도 시니어세대는 지속적으로 증가하고 있으며, 여가활동에 대한 희망도 동시에 증가하여 지속적으로 관광을 희망하고 있는 것으로 나타나고 있다. 시니어세대는 관광 산업이 지속적으로 성장할 수 있는 원동력의 역할을 담당할 것이다. 본 연구는 시니어세대의 라이프스타일에 따른 관광 태도 및 관광 행동의향을 파악하기 위해 사람중심접근법(person-centered approach)을 토대로 잠재프로파일분석(LPA)을 실행하여 시니어세대의 라이프스타일 프로파일 유형을 탐색하고, 라이프스타일 프로파일 유형별 관광 태도 및 관광 행동의향의 차이점이 있는지를 실증 분석하였다. 시니어세대의 라이프스타일은 안전추구, 문화활동추구, 지식추구, 건강추구, 사회활동추구의 5개 요인으로 분류되었고, 안전추구를 비롯한 모든 요인에서 다른 프로파일들에 비해 높은 값을 나타낸 프로파일 3 집단에서 관광태도와 관광행동의향이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 시니어세대의 관광행동 차이의 관계적 특성을 다면적으로 파악하였고, 관광업계에서 중요하게 세분시장으로 형성되고 있는 시니어세대의 이해를 통해 관광소비행동 마케팅 전략 수립에 유용한 시사점을 제공하였다는 점에서 의의가 있다.

The majority of research on lifestyle has been conducted based on a variable-centered approach. However, over the last decades, there is a growing body of research on lifestyle in terms of a person-centered approach. Hence, this study identifies senior generations' profiles based on the combination of the five realms of lifestyle. More specifically, this study utilized a Latent profile analysis(LPA) to explore both quantitatively and qualitatively distinct types of senior generation' lifestyle profiles. As a result, the five distinct types of senior lifestyle profiles were identified and these five profiles were then contrasted with traveling attitude and behavioral intention(traveling intention). In addition, this study attempted to identify similarity in the patterns of relations with theoretical antecedent, correlate and outcome variables. Results showed that even though senior generation belonging to profile groups pertaining to the high level of all five types of lifestyle were associated with a high level of attitude and behavior intention, there was no differences among the profiles. This means that regardless of the patterns of senor generation lifestyle profiles, there was no similarity. Nevertheless, it should be considered that senior generation consider a security when making a travel ling decision regardless of the patterns of lifestyle profiles. This results suggest that senior generation' traveling satisfaction is more likely obtained with the experience of safety and convenience during their travel. At last, this study discusses some implication tourism theory related to lifestyle, practices and future research on tourism profiles.
