The eruption of Airbnb in tourist cities: Comparing spatial patterns of hotels and peer-to-peer accommodation in Barcelona (2016, background): “Crowding is thus specifically seen as the violation of the sociocultural carrying capacity (Neuts and Nijkamp, 2012).”
Overtourism: residents’ perceptions of tourism impact as an indicator of resident social carrying capacity - case study of a Spanish heritage town (2018, background): “The cognitive perception of crowding is a necessary, but not a sufficient condition for the person to want to leave the place (Neuts and Nijkamp, 2012).”
Examining the Differential Impact of Human Crowding Versus Spatial Crowding on Visitor Satisfaction at a Festival (2016, background): “A growing number of studies in retailing, environmental psychology, tourism, and event management have suggested that crowding is not always a negative experience and generally is perceived positively (see for example Ditton, Fedler, & Graefe, 1983; Mowen et al., 2003; Neuts & Nijkamp, 2012).”
Hotspot crowding and over-tourism: Antecedents of destination attractiveness (2019, methodology): “As Neuts and Nijkamp (2012) argued, crowding studies should be conducted also in settings in which tourists have a range of norms and tolerances, and overall negativity to visitor density should not be taken for granted (Neuts, Nijkamp, & Leeuwen, 2012; Popp, 2012).”
