“…A review of the literature revealed that most attitudinal studies have focused on examining the differences in tourist attitudes according to their socioeconomic and demographic attributes (Wang et al 2010). Tourism expenditures have been found to be directly linked with family incomes (Abbruzzo, Brida, & Scuderi, 2014). Similar to our findings, previous studies have also identified household income to have a positive impact on recreational behaviour (Landry, Allen, Cherry, & Whitehead, 2012).…”

The recreational behaviour of visitors to Karamjal Forest Station in Sundarban, Bangladesh, was determined by interviewing 150 visitors. The majority of visitors were locals from Bangladesh (90%); however, recreational behaviour varied significantly between local and foreign visitors. More than half of the visitors reported coming to Sundarban for the first time. Most of the visitors were travelling for recreation and derived satisfaction from watching wildlife, particularly deer and crocodiles, and the beauty of the forest. Foreign visitors expressed more satisfaction with boat journeys than local visitors, while less educated visitors expressed more dissatisfaction with boat travel than highly educated visitors. To the question, 'How would you describe the quality of the recreational benefits of nature-based tourism in Karamjal?' most visitors answered "poor" or "very poor". Visitor perception varied significantly by income level, and people of higher financial status were more satisfied than people of lower financial status with the recreational benefits of nature-based tourism in Karamjal.

“…También para Uruguay, Abbruzzo et al (2014) estudian los determinantes del gasto del turismo receptivo mediante un análisis de modelos gráficos. A diferencia de la mayoría de los estudios, encuentran un rol marginal de las variables sociodemográficas como determinantes del gasto y una importancia directa del gasto con el tipo de alojamiento, el destino y la duración de la estadía.…”

En Uruguay, como ocurre en otros países latinoamericanos, el turismo de cruceros ha aumentado su importancia como generador de divisas. Con el objetivo de contribuir a la planificación de los programas turísticos e intensificar dicha tendencia, en este trabajo se analizan los distintos determinantes del gasto de cruceristas en los puertos de desembarco de Punta del Este y Montevideo. Las estimaciones de modelos de selección de Heckman sobre las encuestas de los años 2010 a 2014 muestran que son algunas pocas características las que determinan el nivel de gasto: la nacionalidad, viajar en grupo, visitar Montevideo y, particularmente, el grado de satisfacción con el viaje. Este patrón no ha experimentado variaciones significativas en el periodo de análisis.

“…More recently, quantile regression was adopted in tourism study by Chen and Chang (2012) on the infl uence of travel agents in Taiwan, and by Marrocu et al (2015) on the eff ect of the main determinants of tourist expenditure to non -resident tourists in Sardinia. Abbruzzo et al (2014) have introduced the use of graphical models for assessing the determinants of individual tourist spending in Uruguay, emphasizing with these models have the advantage of synthesizing and visualizing the relationships occurring within large sets of random variables, through an easy interpret output. While in literature there are numerous studies of tourist expenditure, the research of the cruise tourism expenditure has become more popular since the beginning of this decade.…”

Abstract. In this study, we assess the determinants of cruise ship passengers and crew members expenditure disembarking in the port of Messina (Sicily, Italy), by applying both linear and concomitant mixture regression models. It is shown that duration of visit, nationality, occupation previous visit to Messina and satisfaction an eff ect on expenditures and that there are three diff erent profi le in expenditure are statistically significant. Th is study enables one to obtain the necessary information to implement more adequate tourism policies in a fastest growing sector in the travel market.
