Summary: | Changes in age structure are common in most countries because of aging and lower birth rates. In this study, we constructed a domestic tourism demand model using the concept of the proportion of the prime tourist population to investigate the effect of changes in the age structure of the population. A regression model with the time series data of the number of domestic tourists in Taiwan from 2001 to 2021 was adopted in this study. The results showed that there was a significant positive relationship between the proportion of the prime tourist population and domestic tourism demand, indicating that aging impacted the domestic tourism market negatively. |
