Porto street stage at Rally Portugal: the determinants of the length of stay     

Ana Pinto Borges  Elvira Vieira 《Journal of Sport Tourism》2020,24(1):1-17

ABSTRACT

We present the determinants of the length of stay (LOS) of Porto Street Stage that integrated the program of the 52nd edition of Rally de Portugal. Sport events assume an important role in the marketing of tourism destinations. However, when we compare them with other segments in tourism, it still remains underexplored. This study represents an opportunity to contribute to the literature, and it could become a significant toll for the organizers, public entities and other stakeholders. We contemplate a set of information and data that may improve the management of the future editions in a more rigorous and effective way. As we are dealing with an international event, it is an occasion to enlist tourists and promote the tourist destination. We applied a quantitative analysis and considered the sociodemographic characteristics of the spectators, factors that influenced the trip, expenses per day in the city, level of satisfaction with the event, and the intention to return. An OLS regression model, a Weibull survival model and a zero-truncated negative binomial regression model were estimated, and the results were compared. On the LOS determinants it is not common to consider the influence of each item of expenditure during the stay and the satisfaction levels with the event and different effects were observed. The travel and accommodation expenditures present a negative effect on the LOS. In the opposite side the satisfaction level and intention to return, both present a positive effect on the LOS. The sociodemographic characteristics have diverse impacts on the LOS.  相似文献   

后现代精神困境中都市文化的现实主义回归     

傅建安 《湖南城市学院学报》2011,32(3):44-48

盛可以塑造了都市中独具"冒犯"气质的女性。但她们却在虚无的底色中作着寻找依托的努力:她们在婚恋悖论中追寻婚姻,在情欲纠缠中又对情表示执著,在非常态的磨砺中体验爱情,在世俗挣扎中进行精神的飞升——从而体现出继卫慧棉棉笔下女性形象解构风之后的现实主义回归。在陈染梦呓与卫慧狂欢之后,盛可以、缪永、欧阳静茹等作家在女性形象塑造上重回传统道德的努力,标志着中国文化回归传统、寻找规范的人文走向。  相似文献

国家科研机构创新绩效的评价模型   总被引：6，自引：1，他引：6       下载免费PDF全文

张凤  霍国庆 《科研管理》2007,28(2):35-42

提高国家科研机构的创新绩效,是提高国家自主创新能力和建设创新型国家的战略需要。开展国家科研机构的创新绩效评价,可以为提高国家科研机构的创新能力提供政策依据。本文提出了一种国家科研机构的创新绩效评价模型。创新绩效模型包括:创新产出、创新投入、创新绩效(包括人均创新产出和单位经费创新产出)的概念模型。测度方法包括:创新产出、创新投入和创新绩效的测度方法。本文对19个国家科研机构过去9年的创新绩效进行了定量评价和统计分析,发现国家科研机构的创新活动存在“单位经费创新产出的递减效应”;当人均科研经费投入超过某个临界值时,“单位经费创新产出”将会出现递减。同时,本文分析了评价模型的有效性和局限性。  相似文献

Optimization and Its Alternative in Media Choice: A Model of Reliance on Social-Influence Processes     

Bairj Donabedian Associate Professor 《The Information Society》2006,22(3):121-135

In the reconciliation of rational-choice and social-influence approaches to media choice offered here, the choice process is decomposed into two subprocesses. In the first subprocess—that of rational choice—decisional ambiguity frustrates complete optimization. Optimization is partial, yielding a set of effectively interchangeable media alternatives over which the user is indecisive. In the second subprocess—that of social influence—imitation, deference, and other cues act on the set of interchangeables, yielding a single ultimate choice. If in the social-influence subprocess there are benefits to coordinating with others, group choice crystallizes around a single media alternative. If these benefits are absent, individual choice remains idiosyncratic, with each decision maker making random choices within the set of interchangeables. In organizational life, media choice transpires sequentially, with each choice conditioning a succeeding one. In its dynamic form, the present model explicitly incorporates such sequential environments: The twofold choice process transpires iteratively within individual decision sites (in the multiple purchasing decisions of a committee, for example) and sequentially across decision sites (from committee to individual, for example). The model generates considerable empirical implications. As decisional ambiguity grows, the rational-choice component of the choice process shrinks, implying upper-bound conditions for the explanatory power of rational-choice statistical models.  相似文献
