When deciding whether to attend an overseas convention or not, a potential convention delegate usually faces two main considerations. Firstly, they must decide “whether to attend or not?” According to Hiller (1995), attending an association convention is a voluntary behavior, which means that potential attendees have the choice to attend or not to attend an overseas convention. Attendance depends on the level of interest in the purpose of the meeting and the priority that potential delegates give to the event. Secondly, they might be required to decide “which convention to attend?” Oppermann and Chon (1997) stated that association members commonly hold multiple memberships and that they do not attend all association conventions. Hence, potential participants have a wide range of association conventions and other conferences to choose from, and do not and cannot attend them all.
