The main purpose of this study was to identify the influence of the consumer’s country of residence on hotel service attributes’ contribution to consumer satisfaction. The hospitality services of Disneyland Paris in Paris, France, were analyzed in the context of the study. Data came from their seven hotels and comprised 47,885 valid questionnaires. The Tetraclasse model was applied to identify hotel attributes’ contribution to satisfaction and compare them for consumer segments from eight European countries and between hotels. Results showed that the four service attributes’ contributions are influenced by country of residence and vary between hotels. 相似文献

We develop a model of monopolistic competition that accounts for consumers’ heterogeneity in both incomes and preferences. This model makes it possible to study the implications of income redistribution on the toughness of competition. We show how the market outcome depends on the joint distribution of consumers’ tastes and incomes and obtain a closed-form solution for a symmetric equilibrium. Competition toughness is measured by the weighted average elasticity of substitution. Income redistribution generically affects the market outcome, even when incomes are redistributed across consumers with different tastes in a way such that the overall income distribution remains the same. 相似文献

In this paper we illustrate how certain design problems can be simplified by reparametrization of the response function. This alternative viewpoint provides further insights than the more traditional approaches, like minimax, Bayesian or sequential techniques. It will also improve a practitioner’s understanding of more general situations and their “classical” treatment. 相似文献

Using original archival sources, this article traces the allocation of vehicles by the Soviet economy and shows the complicated reality of the system’s operation. ‘Planned’ distribution was anything but orderly as decrees overturned quarterly plans, wholesalers ignored planning instructions by keeping vehicles for themselves or redirecting them to others, and the producer intervened through its control of the planning ‘aftermarket’. Existing stocks of vehicles were redistributed by administrative mobilizations that were resisted and thwarted by those losing vehicles. Behind the scenes, ‘grey’ markets reallocated used vehicles. 相似文献

We solve and estimate a life-cycle model with earnings risk and liquidity constraints in the presence of tax-deferred retirement accounts (TDAs). We explicitly consider two very different types of households (with TDAs): direct and indirect stockholders. The latter hold stocks only through TDAs and, consistent with the data, save considerably less than the former, who hold stocks both inside and outside these accounts. We find that TDAs promote higher wealth accumulation but only marginally higher net savings. Consumption increases mostly during retirement, as desired, but the effect is largest for those households with higher savings rates already. 相似文献

This paper is based on a survey of St Petersburg's elite, carried out in October 1994 for a city daily, Nevskoe Vremia (a paper with approximately 100,000 subscribers). A representative sample of 800 city dwellers were interviewed by phone, responding to mainly open questions about the city elite. Eight main indicators provided data on the general composition of the elite and lists of names by categories of influence, authority and personal fortune. Of the 150 names nominated by our respondents, all but 12 were identified and characterized in terms of their current or recent formal status, political or social-cultural standing and/or reputation. Some general and specific problems of the study are considered: What is an elite? Is there a theoretical consensus on the nature of the ruling and non-ruling constituents of an elite? What are the dynamics of regional or city elites in modern Russia today? Has the emergence of an elite any relevance to the system of representative democracy and to other aspects of social life? What are the mechanisms determining the formation and reproduction of an elite in public space? Cet article est basé sur un sondage de l'élite de Saint Pétersbourg, fait en 1994 pour un quotidien de la ville, Nevskoe Vremia (un journal qui a environ 100,000 abonnés). Une section représentative de 800 citadins fut interviewée par téléphone, répondant à des questions, principalement des questions ouvertes, concernant l'élite de la ville. Huit indicateurs principaux offraient des informations sur la composition des élites et des listes de noms classés par catégories d'influence, d'autorité et de fortune personnelle. Des 150 noms cités par les personnes interrogées, tous sauf 12 furent identifiés et caractérisés par leur statut formel, leur rang et/ou réputation politique ou socio-culturel, actuels ou récents. Certains problèmes de cette étude, généraux ou spécifiques, sont examinés. Qu'est-ce qu'une élite? Y a-t-il un consensus quant à la nature des éléments qui constituent une élite dirigeante et non-dirigeante? Quelles sont les dynamiques des élites régionales ou citadines de la Russie moderne actuelle? Est-ce que l'apparition d'une élite a un rapport avec le système de democratie représentative et avec d'autres aspects de la vie sociale? Quels sont les processus qui déterminent la formation et la reproduction d'une élite dans l'espace public? 相似文献

Summary This paper examines a model of an infinite production economy with a finite number of types of agents andsemi- public goods, which are subjected to crowding and exclusion. The utility of an agent depends not only on the vector of public commodities produced by the coalition to which she belongs, but also on the mass of agents of her type who are the members of this coalition. The main purpose of the paper is to derive necessary and sufficient conditions on the local degrees of congestion which would guarantee the equivalence between the core and the set of equal treatment Lindahl equilibria. We prove that this equivalence holdsif and only if there are constant returns to group size for each type of agents. It implies that linearity of each agent's congestion function with respect to the mass of the agents of her own type is necessary for the core equivalence to hold.The final version of this paper was written while Shlomo Weber was visiting the Technical University of Dresden as the Fellow of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, whose support is gratefully acknowledged.

The proliferation of novel preference theories in financialeconomics is hampered by a lack of non-experimental evidenceand by the theories additional complexity which has notbeen shown to be critical in applications. In this article Ipresent arguments in support of preferences with rank dependency.Using the Survey of Consumer Finances data, I document two widespreadpatterns inconsistent with expected utility: (i) many householdssimultaneously invest in well-deversified funds and in poorly-diversifiedportfolios of stocks; and (ii) some households with substantialsavings do not invest anything in equities. I show that portfoliochoice models with rank-dependent preferences, plausibly parameterizedand under fully rational assumptions, are quantitatively consistentwith the observed diversification. These results call for furtherefforts to integrate the models of rank-dependent preferencesin portfolio theory and asset pricing. 相似文献

Various contracts can be designed to coordinate a simple supplier–retailer channel, yet the contracts proposed in prior research and tested in a laboratory setting do not perform as standard theory predicts. The supplier, endowed with all bargaining power, can neither fully coordinate the channel nor extract all of the channel profit. We report on a sequence of laboratory experiments designed to separate possible causes of channel inefficiency. The three causes we consider are inequality aversion, bounded rationality, and incomplete information. It turns out that all three affect human behavior. Inequality aversion has by far the most explanatory power regarding retailers’ behavior. Incomplete information about the retailer's degree of inequality aversion has the most explanatory power in regards to the suppliers’ behavior. Bounded rationality affects both players, but is of secondary importance. 相似文献

The paper considers a two-sector two-country trade model of monopolistic competition featuring the heterogeneity of consumer preferences and incomes within and across countries. The incorporation of heterogeneity into a monopolistic competition setting is achieved by assuming a nested Cobb–Douglas and CES utility function exhibiting both country and sector-specific consumer tastes and expenditure shares on manufacturing and traditional goods. The key question analyzed in the paper is how consumer heterogeneity affects the home bias of trade in different countries. The key finding here is that the heterogeneity in tastes and incomes of consumers can provide a substantial influence on degree of home bias in trade but only in combination with high transportation costs. 相似文献
