Beyond being one of the core expectations of individuals, happiness is one of the basic issues of public policies and academic studies. Tourism sector can have direct effects on the happiness of people due to its positive and / or negative impacts. This paper held in Menteşe (Muğla), where is neighbor to mature tourism destinations, is of a size that can contribute to the literature due to the dearth of studies on tourism perception in the settlement distant from intensive tourism activities. In the scope of the study, whether the perceptions of tourism impacts affect the happiness of the residents who live away from tourism activities were examined through multivariate statistical analysis methods have been used. Findings indicate that positive socio-cultural and environmental impacts are effective on the happiness of residents and therefore underline that tourism planners should consider the local people not only in destinations but also in neighboring settlements.

Turizm faaliyetlerine uzak yerleşimlerde turizmin yerel halkın mutluluğu üzerindeki etkileri

Öz

Mutluluk, bireylerin hayattaki temel beklentilerinden birisi olmasının ötesinde, kamusal politikaların ve akademik çalışmaların temel konularından birisini oluşturmaktadır. Diğer pek çok iktisadi faaliyette olduğu gibi turizm sektörü de olumlu ve/veya olumsuz etkileri nedeniyle insanların mutluluğuna doğrudan etki edebilmektedir. Önemli turizm destinasyonlarına komşu olan Menteşe (Muğla) ilçesinde gerçekleştirilen bu çalışma yoğun turizm hareketliliğinin yaşanmadığı bölgelerde turizm algısına yönelik yapılan çalışmaların azlığı nedeniyle literatüre katkı sağlayabilecek niteliktedir. Turizmin etkilerinin turizm faaliyetlerinden uzak yerleşimlerin sakinleri tarafından nasıl algılandığı ve mutluluk düzeylerini etkileyip etkilemediğinin incelendiği bu çalışma kapsamında çok değişkenli istatistiksel analiz yöntemleri kullanılmıştır. Olumlu sosyo-kültürel etkiler ile olumlu çevresel etkilerin turizm faaliyetlerinden uzak yerleşimlerde ikamet eden sakinlerin mutluluğu üzerinde etkin olduğuna işaret eden çalışma bulguları turizm planlamasının destinasyon ile çevresinde ikamet eden yerel halkın görüşleri çerçevesinde gerçekleştirilmesi gerektiği sonucunu ortaya koymaktadır.
