Policies to increase business tourism income : a dynamic panel data model

This article aims to identify the determinants that influence business tourism income and that may be controlled by economic agents and policy makers of destination countries. For the development of the empirical study, a dynamic panel model by the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) was estimated using the Gretl 2016a software, and a sample of 122 countries for the period 2002?2013 (12 years) was used. The study reveals that, for the development of policies to stimulate the growth in the short and long-term of business tourism income, countries should develop measures that encourage capital investment in tourism and foreign direct investment.8316-FD77-85EB | Pedro Miguel Fonseca Moreira de CarvalhoN/

Do neighbouring countries encourage the demand of international business tourism?

This paper aims at determining the factors that influence the growth of international business tourism and understanding whether the demand growth of business tourism spreads across neighbouring countries. For the development of the empirical research, data has been collected from a sample of 136 countries worldwide, and spatial econometric techniques have been used. Evidence that supports the idea that the main factors related to the increase in incomes of business tourism are the private investment on tourism assets, the leisure tourism and the trade openness in relation to the outside world is presented. This study also reveals that the demand of business tourism in a country is not contagious, that is, the demand varies neither with the demand of its neighbours nor with their exogenous characteristics. The results have important implications for the choice of tourism policy goals at national levels and the corresponding policy instruments.8316-FD77-85EB | Pedro Miguel Fonseca Moreira de CarvalhoN/

El objetivo de la presente investigaci?n es determinar si existe estr?s laboral en los trabajadores del ?rea comercial de La Positiva. La metodolog?a planteada comprende un enfoque cuantitativo, de alcance descriptivo; adem?s, el trabajo es no experimental y transversal. El universo de estudio son todos los trabajadores del ?rea comercial de La Positiva: los apoderados comerciales, los analistas comerciales y los asistentes comerciales, que ascienden a 94 individuos. El muestreo es probabil?stico y por racimos, y la muestra la conforman 50 colaboradores comerciales. Para la recolecci?n de datos se emple? la encuesta de diagn?stico de estr?s (SDS), de Ivancevich y Matteson (1984), que presenta 30 ?tems medidos en escala de Likert del 1 al 7. La SDS cuenta con un procedimiento para el an?lisis de los datos, donde determina si los elementos de estudio poseen un nivel alto, moderado o bajo de estr?s. Los resultados indican que solo el desarrollo de la carrera genera un estr?s moderado a nivel general de los trabajadores comerciales de La Positiva; asimismo son los apoderados comerciales los que en general presentan mayor nivel de estr?s, por sobrecarga de trabajo, por ser responsables de otros y por el desarrollo de su carrera

A investiga??o revela que, para o desenvolvimento de pol?ticas que visem estimular o crescimento das viagens e turismo de neg?cios, os decisores pol?ticos e agentes econ?micos, devem desenvolver medidas que estimulem o investimento em capital fixo tur?stico e o turismo de lazer. Por outro lado, n?o devem tomar em considera??o quest?es de natureza geogr?fica nas suas decis?es estrat?gicas. No entanto, estas recomenda??es dever?o ser testadas no contexto de uma futura an?lise confirmat?ria.8316-FD77-85EB | Pedro Miguel Fonseca Moreira de Carvalhoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Chalcogenide Perovskites Tantalizing Prospects, Challenging Materials

Chalcogenide perovskites have recently emerged into the spotlight as highly robust, earth abundant, and nontoxic candidates for various energy conversion applications, not least photovoltaics PV . Now, a serious effort is required to determine if they can emulate the PV performance of the better known, part organic halide perovskites, in applications such as tandem solar cells. This review summarizes the surprisingly large body of literature pertaining to chalcogenide perovskites, which have been investigated for many years despite only recently being considered for applications. The confusing variety of claims coming from computational materials discovery is clarified, and it is specified which chalcogenide perovskites actually exist and should form the focus of experimental work. The highly interesting optoelectronic and transport properties of the known materials at their current stage of development are summarized, which makes a clear case for investigating them further. The existing synthesis literature is collated, which provides some important and possibly unnoticed clues to experimentalists grappling with these somewhat challenging materials. The authors hope that the highlighting of this information will facilitate further exciting studies, better approaches, and new progress for chalcogenide perovskite
