True or False: Psychocentric travelers are the first to travel to a new destination.

  1. True

  2. False

  3. Only occasionally

  4. They prefer established destinations

The correct answer is: False

Psychocentric travelers are characterized by their preference for familiar, well-established destinations rather than venturing into new or less developed areas. They often feel more comfortable in places that are widely recognized as tourist-friendly, where they can predict their experiences and feel secure in their surroundings. This inclination leads them to avoid destinations that are still emerging or not yet fully developed for tourism. In contrast, allocentric travelers are typically the ones who seek out new experiences and are more likely to travel to new destinations. Understanding this distinction helps clarify why the assertion that psychocentric travelers would be the first to travel to a new destination is false.
