“…On the whole, household FAFH expenditure increases as income increases. This was expected given that many studies (for example Yen, 1993;Ma et al, 2006;Bai et al, 2010;Ham, Hwang and Kim, 2004) have found that FAFH expenditure increases with increasing incomes. Additionally, Table 6.1 shows that the budget share of FAFH expenditure, on the whole, decreases as the income decile increases.…”

“…The findings of this study can assist firms in the foodservice industry to identify potential customers, respond to current customers' changing demands and develop marketing and operational strategies which are responsive to industry trends and the lifestage in which the industry finds itself (Ham, Hwang and Kim, 2004). Additionally policy makers will be able to use this information to address the nutrition and health implications of FAFH consumption.…”

“…This is evidenced by Stewart and Yen (2004) who found that the income elasticities of expenditure for fast-and full-service restaurants are 0,288 and 0,632 respectively, using US Bureau of Labor Statistics. In comparison, China has a larger income elasticity of around 1, and the robust nonparametric estimation results show that the income elasticity is still on the rise (Min, Fang and Li, 2004 (Ham, Hwang and Kim, 2004). …”

“…In particular, people used to eat their meals together as a family while the style of eating meals has diversified in recent years partly due to the development of the eatingout industry. Ham et al (2004) indicated that single people in Korea tended to dine out more often and spend a higher amount on food-away-from-home compared to their married counterparts. Yen et al (2013) indicated that, in single-person households of the United States, work hours played an even more important role increasing both the probability of having a meal away from home and the conditional expenditures on food-away-from-home breakfast.…”

This paper aims to formulate a quantitative method of evaluating accessibility to the various food facilities, which share the same purpose as meal suppliers but different characteristics, by a common index, for analysis of population distribution. In this study, food facilities are classified into Facility Group I where food facilities cook meals and provide customers with a space to eat meals and Facility Group II where food facilities cook meals but provide no space for eating.By comparing the transportation and initial loads, this approach models the zone where residents find that one facility is more advantageous to the others. This article also compares the loads of facilities between the case where a user makes a round trip to a facility and the case where the user stops by a facility on the way from/to his/her home. The proposed model theoretically explains the zones obtained in the preceding empirical analysis. Analysis on the locations of facilities and the population distribution around a station shows that the facilities of low initial load were located near the station to promote users to stop by, and that areas with small loads tend to have a large share of single-person households.

Satisfaction and Tourism Expenditure Behaviour

In the literature, the quantification of the effect of satisfaction on tourists' expenditure behaviour has not been extensively studied. This research aims to fill in this gap, providing additional information about this crucial relation by analysing it from a microdata perspective. In particular, the Fuzzy Double-Hurdle model, a new model which combines the well-known Double-Hurdle model and the fuzzy set theory, is suggested and presented, both technically and by means of a real case study. The proposed model gathers the advantages of the Double-Hurdle model and the fuzzy set theory together producing a suitable model for the analysis of censored observations in presence of imprecise data. Specifically, the Double-Hurdle model allows to efficiently estimate the average values of a non-negative, non-normally distributed variable characterised by high frequency of zero values, as tourists' expenditure can be, considering the two-stages nature of the decision process. On the other end, the inclusion of the fuzzy set theory in the regression model allows to cope with the imprecision of both collected information (i.e. levels of satisfaction) and kind of measurement used (i.e. Liker-type scale). The results will help tourism managers to more accurately evaluate the efficacy of their policies Pierpaolo D'Urso, Corresponding author
