ABSTRACT

This study examined the relationship between rural experience activities, self-esteem, and family ties to create alternatives and to provide suggestions related to family issues that are emerging in society today. Rural experience activities were divided into rural culture, deviation, and relationship, while self-dimension and family ties were composed of one factor. The research site was selected as Sumi village in Yangpyeong-gun, and 200 questionnaires were distributed through a survey to utilize a total of 192 samples as research materials. Analysis was performed using PLS-SEM, which minimizes the error of measurement variables and the error of prediction between potential factors and maximizes the predictive power. The results showed that rural tourists' experiences had a significant impact on self-esteem. Of these, it was found that having a relationship experience played a greater role in creating self-esteem than having experienced a rural culture and a deviation. Self-esteem created by rural experience activities had a positive effect on the formation of family ties.
