00925njm 22002777a 4500 dc Moll de Alba Cabot, Jorge Eduardo author Prats Planagumà, Lluís author Coromina Soler, Lluís author 2016-10-01 Short break trips in urban destinations are clearly increasing, and this fact has implications for destinations linked to the different length of stay segments. Thus, this paper analyses the duration of the stay in relation to motivation, satisfaction, image, repetition and recommendation of leisure tourists in an urban destination. The main contribution of this article is to highlight the differences and similarities between the behaviours of short and long breakers for the constructs mentioned, not developed until now. The theoretical model is validated using a structural equation modelling methodology. The sample size is 10,953 tourists visiting the city of Barcelona, relevant for its increasing tourism appeal. Results confirm that differences and similarities are found for those tourist segments. By way of example it is worth mentioning that the repeat visits have a negative effect on tourists’ recommendation, in particular in the case of long break as compared with short break tourists http://hdl.handle.net/10256/19226 Turisme urbà -- Catalunya -- Barcelona Tourisme urbain -- Catalonia -- Barcelona Turistes -- Catalunya -- Barcelona Tourists -- Catalonia -- Barcelona Turisme -- Màrqueting Tourism -- Marketing Differences between short and long break tourists in urban destinations: the case of Barcelona
