Tourism forecasting plays an important role in tourism planning and management. Various forecasting techniques have been developed and applied to the tourism context, amongst which econometric forecasting has been winning an increasing popularity in tourism research. This paper therefore aims to introduce the latest developments of econometric forecasting approaches and their applications to to...

This article considers interaction among participation in the Food Stamp Program (FSP), food security status, and the composition of food expenditures. A quadratic almost ideal demand system with a bootstrapping two-step method of estimation is applied to data from the Current Population Survey–Food Security Supplement data and used to estimate the model and account for endogeneity between the ...

iran has experienced high food prices in recent years. this paper examines the welfare impacts of rising major food groups' prices on iranian urban households using quadratic almost ideal demand system (quaids) approach. the elasticity coefficients derived from quaids are used to estimate compensated variations (cv).the study uses iranian household expenditure and income survey (heis) raw data,...

The recent global financial problem urges government to play role in stimulating the economy due to the fact that private sector has little ability to purchase during the recession. A concerned question is whether the increased government spending crowds out private consumption and whether it helps stimulate the economy. If the government spending policy is effective; the private consumption is...

COVID-19 had an impact not only on human health but also consumers' food consumption. Employing the Almost Ideal Demand System (AIDS), this study analyzes whether consumers change their demand for between 2019 and 2020 in Japan, where legal action was implemented to restrict consumer behavior. Using home scan data, 25 items, including eating out delivery, were analyzed see of COVID-19. Results ...

due to the number of new substances coming into use every year and the increasing amounts of chemicals, which are introduced into the environment, there is a high demand for a rapid, reliable and cost-effective method for detection of developmental toxicity. to meet this challenge various in vitro techniques have been established additional to in vivo animal testing. this review introduces the ...

Households consume animal protein after carbohydrate food is fulfilled, moreover prices are increasing. This study aims to analyze the effect of rising beef on demand. The demand system approach uses Quadratic Almost Ideal Demand System (QUAIDS) model. Estimation parameters using Iterated non-linear Seemingly Unrelated Regression. research data use 2016 National Socio-Economic Survey (Susenas, ...

Through this paper, we have attempted to model the demand for di¤erent classes of antibiotics used for respiratory infections in outpatient care in Switzerland using a spatial version of the linear approximate Almost Ideal Demand System (AIDS) model. This model takes spatial dependency into account by means of spatial lags of antibiotic budget shares. We control for the health status of patient...
