Investigating tourists' awareness of climate change in the context of the adoption of MaaS
Tourist destinations are introducing Mobility as a Service (MaaS) packages to satisfy tourists’ needs and reduce the use of private or rental cars. The main objectives of this paper are: (1) to explore the extent to which the latent variable tourists’ awareness of climate change (TACC) depends on a set of covariates with a particular focus on certain variables related to the MaaS concept; and (2) to analyse the elasticity of the latent variable (…
Tourist mobility packages in an island mass tourism destination
Ensuring a sustainable and efficient transportation system meeting visitor mobility needs is paramount for mass tourist destinations. Recognising this challenge, some destinations are embracing Mobility as a Service (MaaS) solutions as a strategy to create a more sustainable transportation system for tourists. This study uses a discrete choice experiment to analyse tourists’ preferences and willingness to pay for MaaS packages in two well-known m…
Influence of gastronomic motivations, satisfaction and experiences on loyalty towards a destination
Purpose The main objective of this research is to establish an integrated model of gastronomy tourism to help some of the main public and private stakeholders design strategies to improve tourists' gastronomic experience and satisfaction, taking gastronomic motivations as a starting point. Furthermore, the difference between destination satisfaction and gastronomic satisfaction has been established in order to determine the degree to which each o…
Residents’ perception of a mature and mass tourism destination
Residents’ perception towards tourism has been studied in previous literature, but, in many cases, the analysis is based on studies of the impacts of new developments. In this study, we analyse the main determinant factors of residents’ perception in Gran Canaria, a well-known mature and mass tourism destination in Europe. In addition to tourism, the analysis is extended towards the tourists themselves after more than 50 years of residents and to…
Assessing the label’s mandatory information for fishery and aquaculture products in the EU28. A consumer approach based on a consistent fuzzy preference relation with geometric Bonferroni mean
Fishery and aquaculture products (FAPs) are a very important source of the protein intake of the European Union (EU) citizens. Despite the importance, the knowledge on labelling is still scarce. Two important issues regarding the labelling preferences of 27732 EU residents (the criteria interrelationship as well as the relationship that exists at the country level) will be assessed through a method based on a modified Consistent Fuzzy Preference …

Does the access transport mode affect visitors' satisfaction in a World Heritage City? The case of Valparaiso, Chile
The inscription of a city as a World Heritage Site (WHS) acts as a catalyst for the tourist promotion. The brand creates a previous positive image of the city generating some tourists' expectations that might be difficult to fulfil. The aim of this paper is to shed some light on how different transport modes -private car, rental cars, train, bus and other transport modes- could mediate on the satisfaction construct. The methodology is based on a …
Analysis of the main determinants of away-from-home consumption of fishery and aquaculture products in the EU28
The European Union (EU) is the largest market in nominal terms for fishery and aquaculture products (FAPs), partly due to the away-from-home consumption of these products in restaurants and food outlets. In view of this, it is necessary to identify the main determinants of the away-from-home consumption patterns in order to propose strategies that could increase the consumption of FAPs. Following this, ordered probit models were estimated alongsi…
Public opinion and tourism in Spanish destinations
Purpose - We analyse the positive and negative impacts of tourism according to the opinions of residents of Gran Canaria, Andalusia and the Andalusian province of Malaga, comparing similarities, differences and general trends. Design/methodology/approach - The methodology is based on descriptive statistics of two surveys that were developed at two Research Centers located in Canary Islands and Andalusia. In Gran Canaria, the survey was administer…
Covid-19 Is Examining the EU and the Member States
During March and April 2020, the European Union (EU) was the center of the COVID-19 pandemic. Many national governments imposed severe lockdown policies to mitigate the health crisis, but the citizens' support to these policies was unknown. The aim of this paper was to analyze empirically how citizens in the EU have reacted towards the measures taken by the national governments. To this end, a microeconometric model (ordered probit) that explains…
A hybrid-fuzzy Topsis method to analyze the consumption and buying behavior of fishery and aquaculture products (FAPs) in the EU28
Purpose The purpose of this investigation is to develop a hybrid fuzzy TOPSIS methodology in order to understand in a practical and integrated way, the consuming and buying behavior of EU residents towards Fishery and Aquaculture Products (FAPs), with an emphasis in the consumption and buying frequency. Design/methodology/approach Data were obtained from the Special Eurobarometer Survey (European Union, 2018b), which is a survey of 27,732 EU resi…

Service quality evaluation in the perception of the wine tourist with Fuzzy Logic and Ideal Solutions
This article solves a multidimensional problem in order to evaluate the satisfaction of the wine tourist that visited a winery located in the South of Brazil, employing a method based on fuzzy logic. Thus, a synthetic index of satisfaction is calculated for a group of segments in which we are interested, namely, gender and image prior to the visit. The problem of linguistic ambiguity is addressed with the fuzzy sets theory, applying triangular fu…
Writing to learn
This study describes and evaluates a teaching experience that combines the use of financial press with the ‘writing to learn’ method, within the subject Intermediate Macroeconomics. The subject belongs to a field of economics which is characterized by a particularly high degree of mathematical abstraction and in which the accurate assimilation of theoretical content thus becomes essential. Thanks to the establishment of a collaboration agreement,…

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) Index to Measure the Accessibility Impacts of New Infrastructure Investments
This paper applies Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) methodology to analyse gains in the accessibility of Spanish territory produced by the new high-speed train (HST) Madrid-Barcelona-French border. A geographic information system was used to calculate four complementary partial accessibility indicators: an index of location, economic potential, relative efficiency of the network and daily accessibility. The relative accessibility performance of ea…
El problema de modelación de demanda desde una perspectiva desagregada
Disaggregate models, based on the study of individual's behavior making their consumption choices, are considered today the rigth tool in the analysis and predition of demand. This discipline has experienced an increasing development in the last decades, both in a methodological and emprirical level. In this article, an actualized overview of the problem of demand modeling from a disaggregate perspective is presented, emphasizing the case of the …
