The Authenticity of Perception of the Visitors to the Archaeological Festival at Biskupin
Abstract
The article concerns the importance of the authenticity for the satisfaction of tourists
visiting tourist attractions. The study was conducted among visitors to the
15th Archaeological Festival at Biskupin (N = 400). Three types of authenticity were
distinguished: the objectivist, constructivist and the existential one, as well as
their impact on the quality of experience, satisfaction and behavioural intentions
of people visiting the festival were studied. The path analysis results show that satisfaction
is directly influenced by existential authenticity, while the strongest relation
with the quality of experience has the objectivist authenticity. Furthermore,
the perception of all three types of authenticity has a significant influence on
behavioural intentions of tourists in relation to the attractions. This impact, depending
on the type of authenticity has a different course: the objectivist and constructivist
authenticity influences the intentions directly, while the existential authenticity
has an impact also through the influence on the quality of experience
and satisfaction.
