Abstract
La imagen de un destino turístico constituye un elemento fun-damental en los diferentes modelos que analizan el proceso de elección por parte del consumidor (Moutinho, 1984; Chon, 1990; Baloglu & McCleary, 1999). Los diferentes estudios consultados sugieren que aquellos destinos que poseen una imagen positiva gozan de una mayor probabilidad de ser considerados y finalmente elegidos en un proceso de decisión. El objetivo del presente estudio es proponer una metodología que permita evaluar la imagen de marca como un constructo de carácter psicológico, a partir de la percepción que los sujetos tienen de los atributos que definen distintos destinos turísticos. Para llevar a cabo este trabajo y llegar a proponer un índice de imagen de carácter cuantitativo, se analizaron los datos corres-pondientes a una encuesta de 916 turistas españoles
A destination’s image constitutes a central factor in the different models that analyze travel decision-making and its selection (Moutinho, 1984; Chon, 1990; Baloglu & McCleary, 1999). The studies consulted sug-gest that destinations with a positive image will have a higher probability of being considered and finally chosen in the selection process. The aim of this study is to propose a methodology for measuring brand image as an entirely psychological construct, deriving from the subjects’ perceptions of its component attributes. To develop and evaluate this measure, we ana-lyzed the results of a survey of 916 tourists
