Abstract:Tourist experience can effectively improve the physical and mental health of tourists, and the factors and paths that influence its restorative benefits need to be explored in depth. Based on the embodied theory, fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis is used to explore the synergistic effects of multiple interactions among the tourist's body, the destination condition, and the tourist's emotional interaction, which can effectively reveal the complex paths of tourist's physical and mental health recovery. The results are shown as follows. Tourist's physical and mental health recovery is generated through the interactions of sensory experience, physical participation, resource quality, service quality, companion interaction and natural connection. By summarizing the core elements in each configuration path, all thirteen pathways can be categorized into four types: human-place interaction-driven, situational interaction-driven, multidimensional linkage co-driven, and deep immersion-driven. Among six influencing factors, sensory experience and resource quality are the core of physical and mental health recovery. Service quality is more important for psychological recovery, and physical participation is more critical to physiological recovery. Physical and mental health recovery can be realized simultaneously through the combination of conditions. Companion interaction plays a more complementary role in generating the physical and mental health recovery. This study reveals the synergistic influence mechanism of tourists' physical and mental interaction on psycho-physiological recovery in tourism context, which is of guiding significance for optimizing the restorative environment construction of tourism destinations, and enhancing the restoration and improvement effect of tourism on the physical and mental health of nationals.
