Resumo

Este estudio aborda los antecedentes que pueden influir en el apoyo al desarrollo del agroturismo. Se aplicó un cuestionario a 560 residentes de la región noroeste de la República Dominicana. Esta zona destaca por la agroindustria y tiene índices de pobreza altos. Usando modelos de ecuaciones estructurales, se ha comprobado que el apego a la comunidad y las actitudes hacia el turismo y el turista son antecedentes del apoyo al desarrollo del agroturismo. También se ha evidenciado la importancia del conocimiento sobre turismo por parte de los residentes para confiar en las políticas turísticas públicas
