| Tiivistelmä: | The article examines the degree to which tourist's level of institutionalization affects their suitability or otherwise for becoming targets of crime whilst in Ghana, using the suitable "targetship" conditionality of the Routine Activities Theory. The degree of institutionalization is operationalized using three travel behavior predictor variables: reliance on travel intermediaries, accommodation preference, and size of the traveling party. Binary logistic model and the chi-square test of independence were used to investigate the matter. According to findings a statistically notable relationship exists between a tourist's choice of certain travel options and the degree to which they are exposed to various crimes. |
