When tourists encountered some trouble in wayfinding at specific area, tourists would be stressed and couldn't be satisfactory. I raised some issues based on previous research. The purpose of this research is to suggest an effective management method for tourists' wayfinding behavior at tourist resort. Below are detailed purposes to be done. The result of analysis is as follows. First, I performed ‘multi regression analysis’ to check whether environment information influence on cognition or not. As a result, it was appeared that space differentiation and experience influenced on cognition meaningfully, while signage, asking help and landmarks didn't influence on cognition meaningfully. Second, I performed multi regression analysis to check if cognition influence on satisfaction. As a result, it was analyzed that cognition influenced on satisfaction meaningfully. The implications arisen from this study through analysis were as follows. First, when managers develop a tourism area, they should construct each area with differentiation. And, it will be very helpful for formulation of tourist cognition. Second, managers should give tourists special experience. This experience will be very helpful for formulation of tourist cognition. Finally, manager of tourist resort have to try to develop proper environment to make possible to easily form tourist’s cognition and this will facilitate for wayfinding at the same time can be a factor that make tourist satisfied.
