Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 October 2023
Abstract
In the context of rural revitalization, the tourism industry, as an important economic growth point, has been widely concerned. At the same time, as a special group, autistic residents are facing the challenges of psychological and emotional distress and social integration. Therefore, it is of great theoretical and practical significance to explore the development path of the rural tourism industry to alleviate the psychological emotions of autistic residents.
The rural tourism industry provides opportunities for autistic residents to work and social integration. In the tourism service industry, autistic residents can play the role of tour guide, receptionist or handicraft producer. Through the accumulation of work experience, they can improve their self-confidence and social skills, and increase their sense of identity in society, which can help to improve their emotional state and self-feeling.
Through the analysis of the psychological and emotional relief effect of autistic patients, it is found that the development path of the tourism industry under the background of rural revitalization has an emotional regulation effect on 80.65% of autistic patients. About 22.65% of people with autism showed significant improvement.
The rural tourism industry is characterized by diversity and interaction, which provides rich experience and participation opportunities. By participating in tourism activities, autistic residents can get the opportunity for physical and mental relaxation, emotional pleasure, and social interaction. Elements such as natural environment, cultural landscape and animal proximity in tourism activities provide autistic residents with sensory stimulation and emotional connection and help to improve their emotional state and self-feeling.
