چکیده    برای درک بهتر نیازهای اساسی گردشگران، جلب رضایت، مشارکت و عدم مشارکت آنان و این که چه مسایلی باعث عدم رغبت آنان به سفر به یک مقصد خاص می شود، نیاز است که ابتدا موانع و محدودیت های پیش روی آنان مرتفع شود. از اینرو برای ارائه محصول گردشگری مناسب ضروری است نیازهای گردشگران بدون محدودیت های اساسی مرتفع گردد. هدف از پژوهش حاضر، بررسی و اولویت بندی محدودیت های گردشگران کره ای در شهر تهران است. بدین منظور، مدل مفهومی پژوهش شامل چهار نوع محدودیت «درون فردی»، «میان فردی»، «ساختاری» و «محدودیت های مقصد» توسعه یافت. گردشگران کره ای ورودی به ایران که در بهار 1393 در تهران حضور داشته اند، جامعه آماری را تشکیل می دهند. برای نمونه گیری، از میان روش های غیراحتمالی، روش دردسترس استفاده شد. برای انجام پژوهش، تعداد 351 پرسشنامه میان گردشگران کره ای در شهر تهران توزیع شد. داده ها با استفاده از روش های آزمون تی تک نمونه ای، مدل معادلات ساختاری و آزمون فریدمن، و همچنین با استفاده از نرم افزارهای smartpls و spss مورد تجزیه و تحلیل قرار گرفت. با توجه به نتایج حاصله، در مجموع، به ترتیب محدودیت های مقصد و محدودیت های ساختاری مهمترین، و محدودیت های درون فردی کم اهمیت ترین متغیر بوده اند. محدودیت های میان فردی نیز از اهمیت متوسطی برخوردار بوده اند. از سوی دیگر، با توجه به نتایج آموزن فریدمن، از میان شاخص های پژوهش، «ویژگی های شخصی گردشگر»، «ادراک و آگاهی از ایران»، و «ضعف زیرساخت ها و کمبود امکانات» به عنوان اصلی ترین محدودیت های جامعه آماری پژوهش شناسایی شدند.

Abstract    Extended Abstract Abstract For better understanding the basic needs, satisfaction, participation and nonparticipation of tourists and what issues cause their willingness to travel to a specific destination, first, their travel barriers and constraints must be eradicated. Therefore, it is necessary to provide appropriate tourism products that will meet the basic needs of tourists without constraints. This research aims to identify the constraints of Korean tourists in Tehran. In order to achieve the aims of the research, the conceptual model was developed including variables named “intrapersonal”, “interpersonal”, “structural” constraints and “destination’s constraints”. Then 351 questionnaires were distributed among Korean tourists in Tehran. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling and SMARTPLS. Totally, according to the results, destination’s constraints and structural constraints are respectively the most important variables, and intrapersonal constraints were the least important variable. Also, interpersonal constraints had moderate importance. Furthermore, with respect to the results of Friedman test, the personal characteristics of tourists, perceptions about Iran, and the lack of infrastructure and lack of facilities were identified as the main constraints of the research population.   Introduction While travel motivations act as drivers of travelling to a destination, countries are struggling with travel constraints, which are considered as the challenges & filters for tourism flows & lead to demand reduction. For better understanding the basic needs of tourists, their participation & nonparticipation & also drivers of their unwillingness to travel to a specific destination, it is required to remove their facing barriers & constraints. It should be noted that the term “constraint” precedes “barrier”. In this paper, we deal with identification of travel constraints which usually don’t exist in other countries even with a structure as similar as Iran. So, current research’s main objective is to recognize the travel constraints of foreign (Korean) tourists in Tehran.   Materials and Methods All Korean tourists in Tehran are the survey’s population. To achieve the research objectives, the conceptual model was developed including variables named “intrapersonal”, “interpersonal”, “structural” constraints and “destination’s constraints”. Using 51 main questions in Likert Scale, the researchers examined the research’s model. Finally, 385 questionnaires were distributed among Korean tourists in Tehran & were completed by them. Then we applied structural equation modeling (SEM), SMARTPLS and Friedman test to estimate the proposed model and data analysis.   Discussion and Results Descriptive findings indicated that majority of the respondents were married & 3040 years old men, educated, with middle & low income, who mainly were employed in private sector. Most of them traveled to Iran for the first time. Also, more than half of them were willing to visit Iran again. According to SEM results, “destination’s constraints” and “structural constraints” were respectively the most important variables. On the other hand, “intrapersonal constraints” were the least important variable. Also, “interpersonal constraints” had moderate importance. Furthermore, with respect to the results of Friedman test, “the personal characteristics of tourists”, “perceptions about Iran” and “the poor infrastructure and lack of facilities” were identified as the main constraints of the research population.   Conclusions The identified main constraints show that Iran have not still presented its real & proper image to Korean tourists. Most interesting issue is the fact that Korean tourists feel they are facing with constraints about some factors which common feeling is that Iran has been reached to international standards in them: From the perspective of the respondents, even items such as adequate security & safety on the streets & people’s behavior with tourists are among the negative factors. Iranians always are among the most hospitable people in the world. But still Iranian culture & international relationships are not positioned well. Thus, advertisements & marketing efforts of Iran should cover two fundamental aspects: first, they must offset the effects of negative propaganda of foreign media, then they must present its attractions & potentials. Attract favorable opinion of Iranians in abroad & using them as cultural ambassadors can also be helpful. Weakness of infrastructure have been always one of the most essential issues of Iran tourism industry. It is important that the government should locate at the frontline to improve this situation. Also, the quality of the hotel services doesn’t fit with international experiences and is too costly. Another issue is that Iran is among the countries considered unfamiliar with the English language. Some other suggestions are: Optimization of transportation performance Supporting tourism private sector Visa facilitation Providing international banking systems Encouraging travel agents Training tour guides who are familiar with different foreign languages & cultures Reforming bad image of security & safety in Iran Improving the quality of tourism services & products Cooperation & alignment of all organizations, & Adequate, proper & comprehensive informing through mass media.   Keywords: Constraints, Tourism Industry, Korean Tourists.   References: Crawford, D.W. and Godbey, G.C.
