• Wine tourism and hedonic experience: A motivation-based experiential view (2018, background): “…with family and friends may be more closely linked to the main and secondary destinations, as would be the demographic profile, prior travel experience, the trip profile, activities like cultural tourism, likes, environmental quality, and service quality satisfaction (McKercher and Wong, 2004).”
• The moderating role of past experience in the formation of a tourist destination's image and in tourists’ behavioural intentions (2013, background): “These visitors are less price-sensitive and more sensitive to environmental problems (Fallon & Schofield, 2004; Lau & McKercher, 2004; Li et al., 2008; McKercher & Wong, 2004).”
• Extending the memorable tourism experience construct: an investigation of memories of local food experiences (2019, background): “Moreover, McKercher and Wong (2004) identified major variances between first-time and repeat visitors’ behaviours.”
• INVESTIGATING DIFFERENCES IN ANTECEDENTS TO VALUE BETWEEN FIRST‐TIME AND REPEAT FESTIVAL‐GOERS (2009, background): “…in tourism literature has increasingly been centered on investigating the motivations, consumption behaviors, and characteristics of first-time and repeat visitors (e.g., Anwar & Sohail, 2004; Fallon & Schofield, 2004; Li, Cheng, Kim, & Petrick, 2008; McKercher & Wong, 2004; Petrick, 2004).”
• A systematic comparison of first-time and repeat visitors via a two-phase online survey (2008, background): “Intuition and theory had previously led researchers to expect that first-time visitors are easier to be satisfied, due to a typically lower expectation (Anwar & Sohail, 2004; McKercher & Wong, 2004).”
• Exploring tourists' perceptions of tourism impacts (2019, background): “Repeat tourists travel in smaller groups, stay longer, and engage in more activities than those visiting for the first time (Lau & McKercher, 2004; McKercher & Wong, 2004), which can all work toward greater interaction with residents.”
