Abstract

Until now, a large number of studies on tourism in rural regions have concentrated on the recognition of its positiveand negative impacts on economic, social, cultural, and environmental dimensions. However, considering the differentviews held by local people of the impact of tourism, few studies have been carried out to compare the perceptionsof stakeholders, especially from the perspective of rural residents. This research aims to do a comparative analysis ofthe perceptions of local residents about the impacts of tourism on the villages of Kolan river basin in Malayer County. The research method is a mixed procedure. In the qualitative phase, during six sessions, group brainstorming wasdone by 60 persons participating as local volunteers. They tried to identify the positive and negative impacts of tourism. The findings in this phase were used to design a questionnaire as a measurement tool in the quantitative phase. As many as 350 questionnaires were given to 10% of the population over 15 years of age. The data were analyzedby descriptive statistics, exploratory factor analysis, cluster analysis, discriminant analysis, chi-square, and ANOVA. According to the exploratory factor analysis, the positive impacts were classified into economic, environmental, andsocial factors. Similarly, the negative impacts were classified into three factors in terms of environmental, social andsecurity, and cultural impacts. The results of the cluster analysis showed three different perspectives. In most cases, there were significant differences between the perceptions of the local residents in terms of positive and negativeimpacts of tourism. The findings are consistent with the principles of social exchange theory.
