Abstract

This research aims to examine the impact of local people's perceptions towards the impacts of tourism in Mardin on their quality of life and their support for tourism based on the Doxey irritation index. In the research, 410 people from the local people of Mardin were reached by simple random sampling method. Descriptive statistics, reliability analysis, exploratory factor analysis, correlation analysis, confirmatory factor analysis and the structural equation path model were used in the analysis of the data. As a result of the research, it has been found 1) the apathy phase has a significant and positive impact on the quality of life, 2) the antagonism phase has a significant and negative impact on the quality of life, 3) the euphoria phase has a significant and positive impact on the support for tourism, 4) the antagonism phase has a significant and negative impact on support for tourism, and 5) the quality of life has a significant and positive impact on the support for tourism. In line with the results of the research, some solutions and suggestions were made to tourism planning and decision-makers in order to ensure the sustainable development of tourism in the province of Mardin, to improve the quality of life of the local people by understanding their views on the effects of tourism and to increase their support for tourism. The main limitations of this research are that the research is mostly carried out in the Artuklu and Midyat districts due to time and cost savings and the low number of female participants due to the difficulty of reaching female participants.
