The QAP regression analysis.

This study examines the potential benefits of cooperation among Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) countries in achieving common goals within the international tourism cooperation network. Despite its significance, limited research has been conducted on this topic in terms of economic and spatial insights. To address this gap, we utilized the gravity model, social network, and quadratic regression. The revealed findings suggest that while the intermediary function among BRI countries is declining, the tourism cooperation network is gradually strengthening. Furthermore, reducing the gap between the governance and consumption levels of BRI countries can improve the network. The study offers new insights into the BRI tourism cooperation network, which could be critical for the future growth of regional tourism.

本研究探讨了“一带一路”倡议（Belt and Road Initiative, BRI）成员国在国际旅游合作网络中开展合作以实现共同目标的潜在收益。尽管该议题具有重要研究价值，但目前从经济与空间视角展开的相关研究仍较为匮乏。为填补这一研究空白，本研究采用了引力模型、社会网络分析以及二次回归方法。研究结果显示，尽管“一带一路”成员国间的中介功能有所弱化，但旅游合作网络正逐步强化。此外，缩小“一带一路”成员国的治理水平与消费水平差距，可有效优化该合作网络。本研究为“一带一路”旅游合作网络提供了全新研究视角，这对区域旅游业的未来发展具有关键意义。
