“…There is a widely accepted relationship between the value of multiplier effect and the level of economic development (Zhang, Madsen and Jensen-Butler, 2007;Yang, Fik and Altschuler, 2018), the more developed regions being able to display higher values of multiplier effects. Additional studies proved that the multiplier effect can be positively influenced by the level of national or regional economic diversification (Muchapondwa and Stage, 2013), due to the chances of involving more sectors of economy, the level of infrastructure (Freeman and Sultan, 1997;Huse, Gustavsen and Almedal, 1998), the number of inhabitants (van Leeuwen, Nijkamp and Rietveld, 2009) or the typology of tourist attractions (for example van Leeuwen, Nijkamp and Rietveld, (2009) found that the coastal destinations where the sun is the main resource tend to have a larger multiplier effect, while the destinations based on cultural resources recorded the lowest values of multiplier effect). Hansen and Jensen (1996) suggested that a richer region dominated by 3+ stars hotels tends to express a higher multiplier effect than a poorer region dominated by 2 stars' hotels or camping, while Ntibanyurwa (2006) offered evidence for a higher multiplier effect on the regions with small businesses.…”
