本研究為一探索性研究，旨在探討溫泉旅館遊客之消費者行為。以關子嶺溫泉區七家合法溫泉旅館遊客為研究對象，藉由問卷調查及統計分析結果來瞭解人口統計變數、休閒動機、休閒滿意度及購買行為之特徵；同時探討在不同變數的差異，進而提出觀光行銷方面的建議。研究結果發現：遊客在整體休閒滿意度傾向正面態度。人口統計變項中除了從事服務業的比率較高外，其它變項與近年來相關研究結果相近。並發現休閒動機愈高的遊客，休閒滿意度也越高。不同教育程度與重遊意願在休閒滿意度上呈現顯著差異情形。本研究結果可建立遊客消費特性及人口統計等基礎資料，以提供旅館業者掌握遊客特性之參考。 This research is an exploratory study.
