The increase of outbound tourism has outrun the economic development of China in recent years. Scholars hold different opinions concerning disproportionate growth of outbound tourism of China. From the perspective of international comparison, outbound tourism of China does outpace the economic development, even though it still needs further study to find out if the precedence is due to “Chinese characteristics”. The paper states that outbound tourism of China has remarkably outpaced economic development. The main cause of this phenomenon lies in income polarization of China.

Based on the data of international tourism and international trade from 1981 to 2011 in China, the paper uses Vector Auto regression Model(VAR), the Cointegration test, Granger causality test and impulse response function(ISR)to analyze the relationship between international tourism and international trade. The results showed that:(1)There was a long-range equilibrium relationship between international inbound tourism and international trade.(2)There was an unidirectional Granger causality between international inbound tourism and international trade. The international inbound tourism was not Granger causality of international trade, but the international trade was Granger causality of international inbound tourism.(3)With the economic globalization and integration of international trade, the strength of mutual influence between international tourism and international trade would be further enhanced.

Abstract( )   [HTML]()   PDF(4600KB)( )
Because of their role of boundary-spanners, hotel service employees are susceptible to high levels of role stress, which has adverse effects on job-related outcomes. The existing literatures on stress management focus narrowly on external factors, neglecting the importance of employees’ internal mechanism in coping role stress. Most researchers adopt a reactive perspective, they focus solely on existing stress. Based on a positive organizational perspective, this paper proposes that optimistic service employees can anticipate the potential role stress in advance, and adopt future-oriented coping strategies to adjust themselves. The results show that trait optimism has a significant effect on role stress, proactive coping fully mediates the relationship between trait optimism and role stress, while preventive coping is a partial mediator.

Abstract( )   [HTML]()   PDF(4073KB)( )
Tourism World is a special framework of time and space, which is dominated by tourists and is different from the daily life world. It is as a kind of existence which can be generated and constructed in a certain realm. The way to construct the Tourism World is narration, materiality or tourist experience. The subject of construction is the tourist, the government, the business, the host and so on. In order to study the construction of Tourism World further, the research takes the Ping Yao Ancient City for example and analyzes it by means of content analysis, with the help of a network platform. The aim is to analyze the same and different points of the Tourism World constructed by the supplier and demander. From the results, we can infer that, the Tourism World constructed by the demander is embodied, relative and subjective. However, the Tourism World that the supplier constructs is visual, absolute and objective. Detailed analysis can help the “negotiation” between the demander and the supplier, to promote the sustainable tourism development.

Abstract( )   [HTML]()   PDF(3427KB)( )
There is a common belief that the leisure activities can promote people’s life quality. But this conclusion comes from a logical deduction, lacking quantitive study. With reference to Beard ,Ragheb(1980)and Robert A.Cummins’(1994)indice of LSS and SQOL,the indice of this study is proposed. The conclusion is: the LSS of Xiamen people is comparatively high(3.7225),and the SQOL is 3.7252. The study finds that the correlation of LSS and SQOL is quite high(0.656),compared with that of the conclusion drawn in Macau(0.324),the higher figure `proves the hypothesis that the two sections have relation with each other.
