Abstract

The growth of tourism has an impact on the lives of locals in the area. Using theories of emotional solidarity, bottom-up spillover theory, and social exchange theory, a unified approach for examining the links between emotional solidarity, tourism-related stress, local inhabitants' quality of life, and support for sustainable tourism development in a tourism setting was established and confirmed in the present research. The welcoming nature of local citizens was revealed to have a considerable detrimental impact on their tourism-related stress. The study's findings supported a positive and significant impact of residents' emotional closeness on their quality of life. Furthermore, the results demonstrated that local inhabitants' quality of life had a considerable beneficial impact on their support for sustainable tourism development. Overall, the integrated study model accounted for 27.25 percent of the variation in support for sustainable tourism development. The study's theoretical and practical implications are extensively debated. The study's findings are based on 397 samples of data.
