Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to investigate empirically the relationships among perceived psycho-physiological health, psychological well-being, perceived value, and revisiting behavioral intention to the Pei-Tou hot springs destination in Taiwan. In this study a total 583 on-site tourists were surveyed. The results indicated that perceived psycho-physiological health, psychological well-being, perceived value were important antecedent variables of hot spring tourists’ revisiting behavioral intentions. Besides, the results showed that the claims of cognitive psychology, "cognitive - affective - attitude - behavior intention," for the hot spring visitors was supported. The findings provide the following suggestions for the hot springs industry, including the advertising appeals of: (1) perceived value of hot springs tourists; (2) the simple happiness and multi-level health experience of hot springs; and (3) perceived physical and psychological health of hot springs.
