The construction of high-speed rail (HSR) has made a substantial contribution to social development. However, further research is necessary on how evaluate the impact HSR services tourism economy. Based regional panel data 286 municipalities, we adopted propensity score matching and difference-in-difference methods study urban economic between 2005 2015. findings suggest that attraction inbound tourists measures 12% higher than domestic tourists. Furthermore, have significant influence only...

Impact of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) on tourism has yet to be tested. This paper adopts propensity score matching difference-in-differences methods study impact BRI economy using a panel data set 155 countries from 2000 2017. Results show that significantly increases number inbound tourists (17.2%) revenue (8.0%). conclusion remains valid after robustness test. There are regional differences although it positive in South Asia, Western Asia Middle East. The results provide important...

This study aims to explore the relationship between online travel agency (OTA) information and hotel room sales in pandemic context (e.g. COVID-19), thereby promoting recovery of sales. A total 29,915 hotels from 15 major cities China are used as samples. To accommodate long tail distributional characteristics sales, quantile regression (QR) is conduct research. Overall findings suggest that with shorter operating years, higher quality amenities services, better brand image recovered faster...

Abstract Tourism research urgently requires the introduction of new theories to address current issues and challenges. Relative deprivation theory may be key effectively explaining attitudes behaviours tourism multistakeholders resolving conflicts. This study uses CiteSpace conduct a citation space analysis relative draws knowledge mappings reveal its foundation, hotspots, frontiers discuss practical possibility application research. The results show that content involves 12 clusters,...

With its abundant bird resources, China is becoming one of the most important destinations for watching. Sichuan province accounts 50% China's total national species and attracts domestic international researchers tourists. However, development birding tourism in relevant research are still at an early stage. This paper presents investigation based on a literature survey, field work interviews with experts. The examines site characteristics, economic feasibility key factors affecting...

Abstract Previous studies on tourism land use primarily focus the spatial distribution, and its related impacts environment. Here, we propose a future simulation model for mountain vacations based cellular automata Markov chain methods, having verified simulated in Emeishan city at resolution of 30 × m using remote sensing GIS. In addition, introduced intensity index to study expansion mode use. The results have confirmed validity demonstrated ability simulate average growth rate from 2010...

In a Nash equilibrium, every participant's strategy is the optimal reaction to strategies of others. Based on economic theory, this paper analyses core stakeholders' behaviour in tourism community at Qingcheng Mountain, Chengdu, China. Taking taxation, land prices and employment as payoffs, local government, investors players, incomplete information static game model applied outline behaviour. The also examines who benefits most occupies dominant position. results indicate that residents...

The gaze places host and tourist in an "authority field" which is unfavorable to the development of harmonious interpersonal relationships cultural interactions for both sides. Mutual, equal just host–guest should be established through dialogue, will improve tourists' understanding experiences, awaken hosts' consciousness establish a new type interaction. paper based on analysis work life experience Joseph Rock southwest China during 1922–1949. It uses content examine more than one thousand...

The present study is a cross-sectional survey that investigates ethical practices among Chinese psychotherapists from the perspective of large representative sample clients (N = 1,100). In reports clients, we found did poorly in providing informed consent and had other difficulties therapeutic setting with dual relationships. We conclude culture, especially Confucianism, significant impact on attitudes toward psychotherapists' practices, which complicated dilemmas. It important for...

Although the relationship between sleep and academic performance has been extensively examined, how predicts future (e.g., 2–3 years) remains to be further investigated. Using wearable smartwatches a self-report questionnaire, we tracked activities of 45 college students over period approximately half month see whether their predicted performance, which was estimated by grade point average (GPA). Results showed that both nighttime awakening frequency its consistency in tracking were not...

Extensive mindfulness meditation has been widely supported in prior research for its beneficial effects on stress reduction and attention enhancement. Here we systematically examined the of training various aspects as well how long-lasting are. To investigate state attention, compared baseline performance 32 novices (age range: 18-22, all non-gamers) Attention Network Test (ANT) with their same task immediately after 30-min (16 participants, 6 males) or action video game males). The findings...

Abstract There is a mutual influence between departmental structure and accumulation growth. Therefore, the growth of tourism industry will be subject to certain restrictions on industrial structure, and, conversely, it have an impact existing structure. Li Jingyi reported special research in paper called “Research based structural constraints” about relationship It pointed out specific interdependence other economic sectors terms However, trichotomy social product value. too abstract, while...

In general, semi-supervised clustering can outperform unsupervised clustering. Since 2001, pairwise constraints for have been an important paradigm in this field. paper, we show that (ECs) affect the performance of certain situations and analyze reasons detail. To overcome these disadvantages, first outline some exemplars constraints. Based on constraints, then describe a framework, design expectation-maximization algorithm. Finally, standard datasets are selected experiments, experimental...
