Resumen de Tourist attractions in efficiency analysis
Hai Dong, Qi-Bin Liang, Nicolas Peypoch
This paper discusses the use of tourist attractions in tourism efficiency analysis. Tourist attractions can be employed either as an input of the production technology or as an environmental factor in a two-stage Data Envelopment Analysis model. An empirical illustration to the case of Chinese provinces underlines that using tourist attractions in different ways can yield different rankings of the units in terms of efficiency. Recommendations for future research are then proposed.
