description This study examined a proposed model of resident support for tourism development among selected tourism development stages. The proposed model depicts the relationships among perceptions of tourism impact, tourism-related community quality of life (TCQOL), and resident support for tourism development. Considering the characteristics of island tourism and reviewed tourist arrivals database from 1986 to 2012, three tourism islands in Taiwan (Little Liuqiu, Orchid Island, and Green Island, which represent the growth, rejuvenation, and decline stages respectively) were selected. In total, 376 valid questionnaires were analyzed using path analysis with the observed variables (PA-OV) technique by AMOS. The results illustrated that the relationships among tourism impact, TCQOL, and tourism support vary among tourism development stages. In this study, the concept of destination life cycle was used to elucidate the associations among tourism development stages, tourism impact, TCQOL, and resident support for tourism development.
