    This study investigates the determinants of Chinese tourists' intention to revisit Thailand, focusing on the roles of Perceived behavioral Control, Attitudes, and Subjective Norms. Data was collected from 305 respondents predominantly comprising females aged 25-34, analyzed using a regression model. The study discovered Perceived Behavioral Control to be the most substantial factor affecting revisit intentions, followed by Attitudes and Subjective Norms. The demographic characteristics and income levels of respondents also appeared to influence revisit intentions. The regression model successfully explained 83.4% of the variance in revisit intentions, bolstered by a high Cronbach's Alpha of 0.967 indicating the reliability of the survey measures. These findings hold significant implications for the tourism strategies of the Tourism Authority of Thailand and underline the importance of enhancing the perceived behavioral control, attitudes, and the impact of subjective norms among tourists. However, the study is limited by its demographic scope, crosssectional design, reliance on self-reported data, and focus on a limited set of variables. Future research is recommended to widen the demographic scope, incorporate a longitudinal design, integrate actual behavioral data, explore additional predictors, and utilize qualitative research methods
