Sažetak
Purpose – The main purpose of this paper is to research local residents’ attitudes living in rural areas towards tourism development regarding economic, socio-cultural and environmental tourism impacts and to analyse possible relationships between residents' attitudes related to tourism impacts and their socio- demographic characteristics. Methodology – The research was made in a period from June 2017 to October 2017 on a stratified sample of 593 residents in rural areas around Dubrovnik. For data analysis MANOVA was used for examining the relationship between respondents' characteristics and attitudes towards tourism impacts. Further analysis included t- tests and ANOVA for individual statements. Findings – The findings indicate the differences in residents’ attitudes towards tourism impacts regarding age, education, employment status, personal monthly income and job relation to tourism. Contribution –This study can serve as a baseline study to be replicated in a future, to monitor rural local residents' attitudes change as the number of tourists ‘arrivals increase in the years to come ; in connecting rural local residents attitudes with their socio- demographic characteristics to define different segments of rural residents in order to include them into tourism development policy ; and for public policy makers of rural areas to be aware of the attitudes of local residents.
