Biografía

Las investigaciones de Scott McCabe se centran principalmente en el comportamiento del consumidor y la toma de decisiones de los turistas. Más recientemente, su trabajo ha involucrado debates en el consumo turístico pro-social y pro-ambiental, así como el comportamiento responsable y ético del consumidor. Scott McCabe se interesa en la calidad de las experiencias de los turistas, y en la maniera de diseñar y comercializar las dichas experiencias. Desde 2006, ha estado trabajando en un programa de investigación sobre las motivaciones, las experiencias y los resultados de las actividades vacacionales para consumidores británicos gravemente desfavorecidos. Trabajando con una serie de pequeñas y grandes organizaciones benéficas, su investigación ha ayudado a promover el concepto de "turismo social" en el Reino Unido, influyendo en la política y la práctica, aumentando la conciencia pública y estableciendo un vínculo entre las vacaciones y los resultados sobre el bienestar. Su trabajo en el turismo social es reconocido internacionalmente, y Scott McCabe trabajó junto a colegas europeos e internacionales para defender la inclusión social a través del turismo.
