An Examination of Plog's Psychographic Travel Model within a Student Population Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • Correlation analysis is used to examine the association between Plog's instrument, underlying theoretical constructs, and actual travel behavior. Cross-validation of Plog's model was achieved through three personality trait measures and a modified Nickerson scale. This study broadens the behavioral foundations of psychographic research within the travel literature.
