摘要

本研究首先參考有關旅遊意象及市場區隔等文獻，並依據頂菜園鄉土館之資源與特性等，建構意象衡量工具及設計問卷，進行實證調查，以遊客旅遊意象為基礎，以區隔其潛在遊客市場。總計回收有效問卷386份。運用因素分析將其意象萃取為「自然文化豐富」、「寧靜悠閒教育」、「交通環境資訊」、「服務完善親切」及「設施活動便利」等五個因素，再以意象因素做為市場區隔變數，運用集群分析將其潛在遊客市場區分為「服務便利型」、「自然偏好型」及「一般休閒型」三個集群，並以旅遊意象、人口統計變數與旅遊特性描述各區隔市場之特性及差異。遊客旅遊意象對旅遊意願之影響分析研究結果顯示，「自然文化豐富」、「寧靜悠閒教育」、「交通環境資訊」及「服務完善親切良好」等四項方面對旅遊意願具顯著影響，可見業者要特別重視相關服務教育及設備環境維護。最後，本研究研擬出行銷策略之建議，以提供相關領域及業者，創造其在旅遊市場的最大競爭利基。
